Flashback Friday #7

Hey all 

Today we are going back to last year 2013 to when I was on my skin treatment (read all about it here) and is on the day that I filmed The Rainbow Tag

Let's start with me skin! Wooooow my skin was so bad here! It amazes me when I look back at old pictures and I see how bad my skin was amazes me. I can't believe it took me so long to take a serious treatment but it also makes me annoyed at my doctors for not referring me to a dermatologist sooner, there is only so many times you can take the same medication for your skin and see no difference. I'm not saying my skin is perfect now but it is a hell of a lot better than it was.

Now on to the makeup I actually really like the makeup but I don't think that it's makeup that I would want to wear out in public as it is very superman inspired. The foundation looks horrible though. I have no idea what one I was using but it did not make my look any good with all the pimples that were underneath. I do really like this eyeliner though I think that is makes a nice bold eye and I enjoy using blue to bring out my eyes more.

Top 13 Products of 2013


Hello lovelies,
Welcome to 2014! I thought I would share my favourite products of 2013! 

These are in no order whatsoever! I hope that we might have shared some of the same favourite products. 




1. Benefit Boi-ing Concealer - 01
If you have watch my video you would know this is my favourite concealer and I am pretty sure I only tried it for the first time in 2013. I am almost finished my second concealer and plan to repurchase soon! It is a full coverage concealer which I find works best for me. I would highly recommend. 



2. Maybelline Colour Tattoo Metal - Barely Branded 
I got my first colour tattoo once again in 2013 and now have three as they are amazing products. If I am wearing eye shadow there is a 90% chance I am wearing Barely Branded as it is a perfect neutral everyday colour. I will even wear it going out which you will see in my New Years Eve Get Ready With Me. Fast and simple product that still looks amazing. This can always be found on sale also so another bonus! 



3. Benefit Gimme Brow- Medium/Deep 
This product was only released late in the year but I adore it. I became more interested in styling my eyebrows in 2013 and this is definitely the best out of all the brow products I have tried. This makes doing your brows super easy and practically impossible to screw up! 




4. Essence Eyeshadow- 01 Chill Out
I mentioned during the year I have been looking for the perfect white eye shadow to highlight my inner corner with and this is the one! This is super cheap along with being awesome quality you can not ask for anything more than this one! 



5. Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub 
I had super dry lips this year and this worked for me. Yes you can use brown sugar and olive oil but that is messy so this is simple and easy. It isn't expensive so there is no reason to not just buy a lip scrub. The smell is amazing and super yummy so it is makes you want to use it!



6. Bourjois Volume Glamour Max - 51 Noir Max
I got this mascara from the Priceline beauty bag in 2013, I am so glad I did as I had never looked at the Bourjois Mascara before. It is true to it's name and is very voluminous. The brush is really big and convex. Love, love, love this mascara.



7. Ralph Lauren, Ralph Fragrance
I love this fragrance it is a clean and crisp scent. I find that it is good for everyday and versatile. I have pretty run out but I do plan on repurchasing it again soon.



8. Essie Nailpolish
I slightly cheated with this one as I didn't pick a colour I picked the brand as a whole. Since priceline started selling Essie this year that is has become assessable us Australians. I love the Essie brand I only have three colours myself, but my house mate has a few also that are pretty too.



9. Hydraluron
I have already blogged about this so I don't think I have to say much about this product. I adore it and my skin is so grateful for having it in my life.



10. Frank Coffee Scrub
This has become super popular this year and it is understandable why. This is a rough scrub so if you body is sensitive than this isn't for you. This scrub targets cellulite and stretch marks which is something that is something I want to get rid of. If you love coffee you will love the smell of it!



11. Coles 4 in 1 Cleansing Wipes
These are the best budget makeup wipes! I think they are better than more expensive wipes. Seriously do yourself a favour and try them!



12. Antipodes Grapeseed Butter Cleanser
I love this cleanser and the review was my last post! I do plan to eventually repurchase this cleanser.



13. Sukin Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil 
This is amazing for your skin oil or dry! I am in love with this product it really did help me so much when I was on the skin medication.

bonus!



14. Organi Organic Honey Peel 
Okay so I miscounted lol! So this is the bonus product! Picking only 13 is hard! This is another product that I have already reviewed! I really enjoyed this peel as it left my skin feeling amazing afterwards. I am looking for a dupe of this product though as it expensive and while I am still working part time it is a bit out of my budget!

This is my Top Products of 2013! I really hope you had an amazing year and hope that you will stick around to read more of my posts in the future! Bring on 2014!!

Also if you want a review of any of the products let me know. :)

China Haul December 2013

So I wasn't really planning to buy any make up while I was in China to be completely honest with you. However I went a massive shopping centre and they had Sephora, need I say more? I'm an addict and going to Sephora for the first ( & second & third...) time it was extremely tempting to buy things. Now there isn't too many things as had a tiny bit of control, even smaller than tiny!

let the haul begin.

My first purchase was the Sephora face masks
I got a set of five of the Rose Mask and two of the Pearl Mask


Also on multiple trips to Sephora one of them I got a free sample for purchasing five of the face masks. it was the Clarins One Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser. 



I got a small size of the Caudalie Hand and Nail Cream. It uses grape which is meant to be good for anti-ageing. 












Another hand cream (it was winter there!) L'Occitane Dry Skin Hand Cream.


I got a fake EOS lip balm. I know it is horrible to get a fake but you can't get them in Australia and I didn't see a real one so I impulse bought.



Bourjois flower Perfection Translucent Smoothing Primer. Brodie raved about this product and the sales lady put it on me, it was an easy sale!












I walked in MAC and saw they had Riri Woo. So I decided I had to have it! it was only $6 dollars cheaper than Australia but it was still cheaper!

















I also went on to the Michael Todd True Organics website during the Cyber Monday Sale. I think it was about 30% off, so I made a purchase. Yep I was in China and went online shopping, I clearly have issues. The mask I got was the Pumpkin mask as is sounded good even though it is for all skin types expect sensitive.



New posts soon.
