I will hopefully buy some of these things next year!

Urban Decay Naked Palette 1
Smashbox Full Exposure Palette
Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick
Kat Von D Shade & Light Contour Kit


Kat Von D Monarch Eyeshadow Palette

There are some of the new beauty things I’ll be on the lookout for next year, what are some of yours?


All the love xx

A Thrift Haul

Whyyy hello there peeps!

Yesterday, Katie from stealthespotlight (one of my absolute fave aussie youtubers), uploaded a video of all her top trifting tricks.

I took this as a sign that I needed to visit the thrift stores. I have been thrift shopping a couple of times and they’ve either been 
super successful, or a waste of a trip.


Today, I picked up a bunch of stuff and I thought I’d share it with you all.


I bought this plain black pleated skirt. It can be high waisted which I love and it was only $5, super bargain.


Another black skirt, which surprisingly looks similar to the first one. Also $5, also a bargain.


I bought this high waisted knee length skirt however I think I will hem it 2 inches as it comes a bit lower than my knee.


This camo shirt with faux leather sleeves is super casual for an everyday look if it were paired with jeans.


This shirt is huge and navy. I keep very low-key with my outfits and usually only wear black/white however, navy is always an exception.


This is a nice cream jumper; however it looks a bit yellow in this. It’s so comfy and I’m so excited to wear it.


Ugh I have so many shirts and I was so excited to find these pants. They were in a pile so I’m not sure if they were someone else’s but I think they just forgot to put it back.


This cream shirt has a collar that I love so fking much! A nice iron and this shirt will be good to go!


This is a navy shirt with white lines on the sleeves, and is from GAP. Not sure if it’s authentic but it still had a tag from GAP on there and it said the original price was $44.99, and I got it for $5.


Basic af dress that I think is still cute, nice long necklace and boots.


I know this throwover will be so great in summer as it is the thinnest material and a jacket can really make the difference to an outfit.


Right? Right! I found this shirt in the men’s section and it was $3, I’m as shocked as you.



Have a great day! Xx

August Favourites

These months seem to come around so quickly that before I even realise what I’m doing, I’m writing this post. I struggled to find things I have been loving this month, so there are only 4 products. Sorry but I just don’t want to be one of those people that just post about whatever as they just need to have faves.


Bananas


This is so weird but 2 weeks ago if someone asked me if I wanted a banana I would’ve said, ‘no, I don’t like bananas, I know its weird right I mean I feel like everyone likes bananas but I hate the texture and they just taste gross!’. Now I would say yes please! No clue what happened but I love bananas, which is strange since I don’t really enjoy many fruits.

Mac Crosswires


This lipstick is perfect for every day, I’ve slowly been moving away from the brown nudes and this colour is as bright as I feel comfortable wearing on an everyday basis. Estee from EssieButton made (kind of) buy it and I don’t regret it slightly.

Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze


I wear an eyeshadow base every day, yet I had forgotten how good these are! My friend said hers have dried out and I thought mind had too but I just spun my finger around in the tub and it undried quickly (I believe it was just the top). This is perfect for an entire eyeshadow look, if you’re feeling basic like me.

Jessup Duo Fibre Brush


Sally Jo said in one of her videos how when you’re pale, it’s easy to want to avoid blush especially pigmented ones as you don’t look flushy and cute but rather an awkward child who has just found their mother’s makeup. True. She recommended using a due fibre brush as it applies it lightly, and I have done just that and found it to be most effective!

ChiChi Cosmetics Lipstick in Social Climber


As I said above for Crosswires, this has been helping me come out of my comfort zone. This is a cheaper alternative. All ChiChi lipsticks are beautiful formulations and I think people who a turned off because they seem “cheap” are snobs #draggingsomeone

Maybelline Age Rewind


This is a concealer, right? Wrong. I’ve been using it as a foundation as there are hardly any foundations that are pale enough for me. It looks really smooth over acne and does a fabulous job of yanno, being a foundation. Maybelline, maybe come out with a foundation same consistency?

Eyebrow Brush (Priceline, unsure brand)


No clue this brand but it’s so hard to find an eyebrow brush but this one is pretty damn good and brushes dem brows out.

Playlists


I have been obsessed with making playlists on my iTunes lately. My current playlist is called peanut butter and jams and some songs I have been enjoying are:

Drag Me Down- One Direction (say what yuou will, this is a jam)
All Too Well- Tay (scream this like a monologue in your car, amazing)
Backseat Freestyle- Kendrick (always incredible)
Do It Again- Pia Mia
Only- Nicki



Thanks for reading! Have a good day/night xx

Maybelline Colour Drama Lipsticks | SWATCHES

Hey! I don’t know about you but I love lipsticks! They’re one of the only makeup products I’ll never have enough of. I have a fair few already but I’ll most likely never stop collecting them. I love cheap priced lipsticks, yet HATE but quality ones. What if I told you I had found a range of lipstick that are SO CHEAP, yet are so fking good???? Don’t know if you believe me? Well have I got a surprise for you!


Maybelline is the cult of beauty brands-everyone owns something from them and I have yet to find a product that is bad (some aren’t fantastic, when compared to others but are still great). Maybelline released a new range of lipstick in pencil form (not lip liners) fairly recently, and I bought 2 during a sale and fell in love. These are the Maybelline Colour Dramas, and I now have the entire range except Berry Much which I haven’t been able to find. These lipsticks retail for $9.95 AUD yet Maybelline often have 50% sales at different places so I have no doubt you can find them for around $5 AUD.

I hope they bring out a wider range, especially in the matte ones as they are so vibrant and creamy! The shimmer ones are the same except I’m not a big fan of shimmery lipsticks. If you have to get one I would recommend Fab Orange; it will change the game for you. I can’t say enough good things about these. Sometimes I prefer them over my MAC lipsticks-YES!

omg swatches are so embarrassing to do-sorry these are great! (PS: my face hahah)

From L-R:
Nude Perfection
Minimalist
Love My Pink
Fuchsia Desire
In With Coral
Fab Orange
Light It Up
Red Essential
Pink So Chic



Hope you enjoyed these swatches! You can get these online here, or in store at your local Priceline or Chemist Warehouse. For more information click here.
