Lust Have It - Bonus Box - New Products #5 May 2014

Hey darlings

I recently re-subscribed to Lust Have It and signed up for a three month subscription. Since I paid for the three boxes upfront I got a free box. I'm not sure if I got two boxes free haha but more on that in another post. There was no Card so I don't have the most details on all the products.

I am super grateful for the free box but some of these items I can't feel but think they are left overs that they just couldn't get rid of. 


Nude by Nature Papaw Ointment
This product I got in a box months ages ago and I was not that big of a fan of it then. I will eventually use it, as papaw ointment is a staple for the winter months here in Melbourne. Dry and chapped lips are not a good look on anyone! So this will be in my handbag or car to insure that I have smooth, hydrated lips all year round. 


Nicole by O.P.I 
For one this is the third time I have been given the purple colour in a box. Seriously this one colour seems to be in every box is it one of their best sellers or something? Or is it just one of the least popular colours. The silver is a pretty interesting colour but one that I doubt it is one that I will really use but it may make a cute accent nail. 


Camouflage Colour Lip Gloss 012 White Cherry
This is one of the ugliest coloured lipglosses I have ever seen! White gloss I'm not sure why anyone would wear this and I do not plan on using this. I will most likely see if someone is interested in it but I find that is highly unlikely. 


Seacret Buffing Block
This is the best thing in this box! My house mate Jess gave me this a few months ago. Everyone in the house loves this! Even Kale, mine you I have to do it on him and he just likes that this makes your nails so shiny. Seriously could not recommend this buffing block enough not that I have any idea what the price is! 


Paula's Choice Clear Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution
I have also recieved this product before and I didn't use it. Kale actually did. He was complaining about his skin and while looking through all my samples this is what we decided he would try. He enjoyed so I might give it ago this time or give it to him.

New Products May 2014 #4 Beauty Joint Order

Hey all

So I made a Beauty Joint order the other week and it arrived in the mail! It was a lot quicker than I was expecting so that was great. So many of the products I bought have been on the lust list for months!



Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara
Okay so if you can't guess why I bought this you are living under a rock. Lauren Cutris is forever raving about this mascara so I had to try it and it is so damn cheap I couldn't say no!



Jordana FabuBrow Eyebrow Pencil
I have heard a bit about this on Youtube recently and this is so cheap also it was hard to say no. I have the jordana eyebrow shadows which are great quality, I so knew it wouldn't be a waste of money.



NYX Blush in Angel
I have also heard so much about this blush! Rachael Jade on Youtube would be one of the biggest fan of the blush because it's supposedly a very neutral blush that can go with all looks. I need a blush to go with everything in my life it would be super helpful!





NYX Lipstick in Violet Ray
I am into the dark lips at the moment and it is the right weather for it in Melbourne! So this colour looked really nice when I saw the colour online but you know what it is pretty identical to one of my other lipsticks! So annoyed with myself!






NYX Lipstick in Harmonica
I'm really into light pink lips at the m moment and I couldn't find the black label one in India that Shaaanxo raves about so I thought this colour looked like a beautiful like pink. No! I was so wrong!!!! I am not a fan of this lipstick at all!!!!





Wet n Wild Mega Shield Lip Color SPF 15 in Lolly popstar
I pretty much just thought that this was a cute colour and I hadn't tried any Wet n Wild. Also so so so cheap so couldn't go wrong really. I am happy with this colour so far but may be a bit too meticalic for my liking.





Wet n Wild Colour Icon Palette in Comfort Zone
I got this palette as I love my walking on egg shells palette and really love it. I think Wet n Wild are such great quality for the price you pay!



E.L.F High Definition Undereye Setting Powder
Shaaanxo once again talks about this all the time so I knew I had to have it. So seeing as it is way cheaper in online than at Kmart I thought I would get it. This is one of their more expensive products but so far I enjoying it. As I had to start using it straight away!





E.L.F Blush in Gotta Glow
It's a highlighter and meant to be like the Nars one. Need I say more?





Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner in Nude
This is forever sold out in any of the sales and majoirty of the time whenever I got into Priceline. I have been wanting this for the longest time so I finally bought it and can't wait to start using it!



NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Powder
This I heard is a good 'drug store' bronzer and they don't sell it in Australia. So I thought I would try it out as I am in need of a cheaper bronzer and since I broke my Nars one :(.



Milani Bake Blush Luminoso
This is talked about so much on Youtube so I had to get it!

I really need to stop shopping this month! I am on 4 already and have so more things to haul!

Who Has Been a Bad Blogger This Week!

Me! I have been such a bad blogger this week! I haven't posted since monday!! I had been on such a roll and then my computer died. I know this lame but I have a few posts that I am planning and a lot more New Product post (someone stop me from shopping please!).

I have a feature week coming soon! I am so excited about this but alas I want it all planned before the week so I can't skip a day or anything. I think next week will be the week though!

I  am planning another post tonight though, so keep a look out! Also just downloaded my video editing software so new videos should be finally coming out too!

Makeup Wipe Monday #14 Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliating Facial Wipes

Hey all

Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliating Facial Wipes are this weeks focus! I have already focused on Simple twice before here and here. These wipes however are completely different to the other two.

They are exfoliating wipes and I believe that they do just that. One side of the makeup wipe is smooth while the other side has small exfoliating groves in the wipe. It's good at removing makeup while also giving a nice smoothness to the skin.

I like to use these a few times a week to make sure my skin is nice and smooth if I don't feel like using my Micheal Todd face mask. I think if your skin is feeling crap and needs a perk up this are really useful, to make your skin as well as foundation look better.  There is nothing worse than dry flaky and bumpy skin making your foundation look bad.

Would I recommend this? Yes! Will I repurchase them? Yes I will. I am more than willing to pay full price for them as well but I'm sure I will stock up when they are one sale!

New products may 2014 #3 social eyes lashes

Hey Everyone!

No spotlight Sunday post today! During the week my Laptop actually broke so I didn't get the chance to write up a post for today. I now have a new Computer yay!!  So now that I have seemed to setup most of my laptop I can Blog for you all. Last week I ordered from Socialeyes Basically Karissa Pukas aka Saturdaynightsalrite released her own Vegan Lash line and when they had their presale I had to but them! They are really affordable and delivery is only $5 for Australians which is lovely. 

I am not a big false lash person but that is because I am not very good at using them, so this will hopefully help me improve. I mean having pretty new lashes will motivate me right? They are longer that what I was expecting but I bet they will look amazing on!

Flashback Friday #9 My 2005 Self!

Hey all!

This week I am taking you all the way back to 2005! When I was in year 7! This was the year that I met most of the bloggers that I am forever raving about on my blog, Brodie and Tara. However this has nothing to with the friends I made in year 7 at all, just a little shout out to my gal pals. 

Today's post is actually a photo shoot my sister and I did. She decided she wanted to make her own magazine, who wasn't guilty of this, I was going to be the cover model. I am wearing a second hand cheese cloth dress that she wore to 60's or 70's theme party, we though it screamed high fashion clearly. You can see my stick on bra (please excuse that!) There is also cleavage because even at 14 I was busty, but I think we did use bronzer to make them look bigger as it was for the cover after all! 

I don't think I am wearing very much makeup but mainly bronzer. My sister did all of the makeup anyway. I find it funny to think that now my hair looks basically the same since I cut it Monday, so very suited to this week! (blog post or video will come soon about my new hair!)







Cover material? What  do you think?
