Best Beauty Products of 2015

Hey guys!

Well, here we are, at the end of another year! I feel as though this year I have come so far with my makeup skills. I’m not sure why I started this blog at the very beginning of my makeup addiction-and actually wrote posts about makeup. I did not know a damn thing! I am glad to see how far I have come though, just a reminder that we weren’t all born as mini Jaclyn Hill’s (big love girl).

I really wanted to do a post of my top beauty products of 2015. Now, this is necessarily products that came out in 205, rather products I purchased or first tried in 2015.

Anyway, I’m sure you get it, here it is:

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palettes

These palettes really got me into eyeshadow. Perfect for beginners as they’re easy to blend, and can achieve a range of different looks.

Loreal Brow Plumper & ELF Eyebrow Kit

I can’t believe I was ever someone who didn’t do their brows: crazy! These two products are the bomb diggity, I speak about them so often.

Sleek Contour Kit & ELF Gotta Glow

These are both incredible and super affordable! If you’re from Australia, you can buy Sleek on ebay! I got the ELF highlighter from iHerb!

Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation

This foundation is so good, especially for a lightweight everyday foundation that easy to blend. I use this every day at work.

Jordana Blush in Coral Sandy Beach

The pigmentation on this blush is insane! Easy to blend out too, in case you want a lighter look. I bought this in NZ but you can find them on Beauty Joint.

MAC Painterly Paint Pot

This changed the game for me: my eyeshadow does not smudge and is so much more pigmented. This is a must have for everyone!

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

I cannot say enough good things about this: so fricking good! Worth $50, yet is only $15: what more can I say??

Lip Products

I had three fave lip colours this year. From top-down are;

Maybelline Colour Drama in Fab Orange

Maybelline Colour Drama in Nude Perfection

MAC Lipstick in Twig

Mascaras

I have quite long lashes already, yet I cannot leave the house without mascara. I like HUGE lashes with length and thickness and both these mascaras provide that.

Maybelline Lash Sensational is the best drugstore mascara that I have ever found! It gives really big, semi-clumpy but not in a bad way. You can get this everywhere!

Jordana Best Lash Extreme is another great one! Lauren Curtis always uses this and I can see why! It makes your eye look longer which I love! You can get this from BeautyJoint.

Face of Australia Liquid Liner

Ahhhh! This liner is so fab! I love liquid liner and find it so easy to use! It looks so much better than anything eles,e super opaque and stays on all damn night.

Australis Cya Later Pores Primer

I use this primer everyday on my T-zone, im not sure as I don’t have Benefit Porefessional but I think it could be a nice dupe.

And the ultimate #1 product of 2015..

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Moisturizer

I swear I talk about this every post but it is so incredible and affordable! If you have yet to get this: get it now!

Hope you all had a wonderful 2015, see you in 2016! Be safe xx

November Favourites

Hey guys!

I’m so excited to be writing another favourites-it feels as though it’s been so so long, as I skipped a month. Despite that, I don’t even have a huge amount of favourites but let’s get into it.

Maybelline Hyper Sharp Liquid Liner

Holy crapola! If you struggle to do eyeliner flicks, this product will literally do them for you. It is so easy to use and creates a perfect line. Tip: wait for it to dry completely before blinking too much, it can transfer onto your lower lash line (easily fixable though, just get a thin eyeliner brush and brush it out).

Victoria’s Secret Strawberries & Champagne

I don’t wear perfumes. I mean, I didn’t even own any before this & I’m not sure why as when I put this on, I actually feel as though my outfit, makeup and hair are complete.

Jordana Blush in Coral Sandy Beach

I found all these Jordana products at a dollar store in NZ, so I thought I would try at least one, and I was not disappointed. I love blushes that are deeper pinks, such as this.

LA Girl Liquid Matte Lipstick in Bazaar

These liquid lipsticks are the bomb.com! I would say more… but something’s coming up.

Model’s Prefer Liquid Light Primer

The seasons have changed and in the southern hemisphere, it’s summer, and in my town it means it’s hot-SO HOT. I have had to change my primers up to something that will prevent my makeup sliding off my face, whilst feeling like I don’t have makeup on. This one is fabulous and does both these things well. Bonus: it also semi fills in pores-does it get any better?

Australis Tint My Brow

Brows are the one thing I always do. I have a routine down however; it’s always exciting to change up products. This brow tint has red undertones, which is great for some people however, I hardly notice them. I feel as though I can wear this alone, without filling my brows in before with a powder, and that’s how I know it’s a damn good product.

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

BEST CONCEALER DOWN. Not kidding, I need to buy like 30 backups. It can be used alone, under eyes and even to cover acne. It’s the absolute best and I regret not buying more (but I will find them online somewhere, I’m sure). PS: sorry for my ugly hand. 

Music Faves:

I’m about to do an entire post of all of my current favourite songs, so you can look forward to that (if you want to). But I will say, Love Me Like You by Little Mix is so good, you should take a listen.

Hope you liked! Xx
