Sephora, MAC and Victoria Secret | Haul

Monday, 11 November 2013

Hi everyone, long time no see! Welcome back to my blog :)
My cousin recently went to America and I gave him (yes him!) a list of beauty products to buy from Sephora and MAC since there are so many products that aren't available in Australia and at a cheaper price. My total order came to $170 which is pretty cheap in my opinion, if I was to buy it here in Australia, it would be double the price. I picked up:
  1. MAC Lipstick in 'Creme De Nude'
  2. MAC Lipstick in 'Faux'
  3. MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in 'Soft and Gentle'
  4. MAC Blush in 'Desert Rose'
  5. Beauty Blender 
There were a few other items such as the Lorac Pro Palette and Shiseido Eyelash Curler but they've been out of stock for awhile since everyone is such a big fan of them! 

Swatch/Review: The Balm 'Instain' Blush in Toile

Monday, 26 August 2013

Hello beauties, welcome back to my page! Today I will be doing a simple swatch post on the new 'Instain' blush from The Balm in the shade Toile! This product recently hit the shelves at David Jones and I was really keen in trying them out because they received some pretty great reviews from the lovely Emily from Beauty Broadcast (watching her videos make me want to buy everything!)

This blush comes in six different shades varying from bright pinks to deep plums. Although there aren't many shades, I think there is a shade for all skin tones whether you're fair, natural or dark. The shades are: Argle (Petal Pink), Swiss Dot (Peach), Toile (Strawberry), Lace (Bright Pink), Houndstooth (Mauve) and Pinstripe (Plum).

Swatches: The Balm 'Shady Lady' Eyeshadow Palette and 'Hot Mama' Blush

Tuesday, 13 August 2013

Welcome back to my page darlings, hope you've been well! David Jones is having a sweet deal on The Balm cosmetics at the moment and I got my hands on two goodies! The deal is that if you spend $27.95 or more on the brand, you will receive a 'Shady Lady' eyeshadow palette for free which is at a $49.95 value! What a bargain! The 'Hot Mama' Blush is valued at exactly $27.95 so both products were only $14 each. You can't beat that, especially because The Balm is quite expensive in Australia.

I've been eyeing the Hot Mama blush for a very long time because of Emily Noel from Beauty Broadcast! Every time I walked past the stand I couldn't resist swatching the blush but walked away because of the price. The Shady Lady palette was a bonus but I never really looked at the eyeshadows since they were quite shimmery and metallic but once I bought it, each colour really caught my eye. So let's jump right into the swatches shall we?
