Empties #1

Hello, 

So I thought I might do my first empties post. Each empty product will have a picture and mini review. 

Empty #1: Kimmi perfume in Niki. 

As you can see this perfume is finished its about half way but I decided to throw it out as the smell is nice but not my favourite it is very sweet. As I have other perfumes I dedcide to get rid of this one. 

Repurchase = NO. 

Empty #2: Intimatley Beckham by Victoria Beckham 

I loved this perfume it was really nice and I have used up every last bit. 

Repurchase = YES 

Empty #3: Nivea soft cream for face, body and hands. 

I loved this moisturiser and scraped out the container. It is extremely moisturising and nourishing. I used this on my face everynight, as it is a heavier moisturiser. 

Repurchase = YES (already have) 

Empty #4: Revlon photoready bb cream. 

This BB cream had good everyday coverage and blended out nicely. It wasn't like OMG you have to have this. I got this on sale and the normal price of this is expensive just for a bb cream. 

Repurchase = NO 

Empty #5: The Body Shop All in One face base 

I LOVED this powder and again used it all! It gives medium to high coverage and therefore can be worn alone. Go buy this! 

Repurchase = YES 

Empty #6:  The Body Shop almod hand and nail cream. 

This hand cream was very moisturising and did its job. I would buy this again but the only complaint I have about this cream is the container its in. As I started to use this up it was harder to squeeze out! 

Repurchse = YES 

Empties #7 + #8 Nude by Nature Liquid Mineral Concealer and Elf eyeshadow primer in pearl 

Concealer: this concealer hardly gave any coverage and wore off easily. 

Primer: I liked the orimer but didn't like the shade I have rebpurchased this but in a different shade and its much better. 

Repurchase = NO 

Thanks for reading xoxo

My current everyday makeup routine

Hello, 

Today I thought I'd share my everday makeup routine. My makeup on a everyday basis is quite simple and quick. I don't wear makeup everyday as I am a student and decide not to wear makeup to school. Some weeks I don't wear makeup even a month sometimes. So lets get started...  

1. Primer- Face of Australia face base primer 

This primer is reall moisturising and evens out skin tone and texture. 

2. Foundation- Rimmel match perfection and kmart blending sponge. 

3. Concealer- Elf maxium coverage concealer and maybelline instant age rewind. Nude by nature concealer brush and kmart blending sponge. 

4. Blush- changes most days but I use my Elizabeth Arden powder brush or my manicare artiste stippling brush. 

5. Highlight- Benefits watts up and essence eyeshadow in rose it up. 

6. Brows- Australis oh hai brow kit. 

7. Mascara 

8. Lipstick- depends on mood and what I am doing that day. 

Skin Care Routine

Hello, 

I thought I share my skin care routine with you. To let use know I have dry- normal skin and it is senstive. 

1. Cleanser- I cleanse my skin everday using the Cetaphil Gentle skin cleanser. This does its job and is gentle enough for senstive skin. It also does not dry out your skin. 

2. Moisturiser- After cleansing my skin I moisturise using the Nivea Creme. This is my night time moisturiser as it is a lot more heavier and extremely moisturising. During the day I use the Olay senstive skin SPF 15 mousturiser. 

3. Skin Treatment- The Body Shop tea tree oil. I use tea tree oil on breakouts and this helps so much. I would recomend this so much for breakouts not for bad acne but for the odd spot this is great. 

4. Mask- St Ives Oatmeal scrub and mask. I use this on a weekly basis and apply it as a mask but as I remove I rub it in circles to exfoliate. 

My skin care is very simple but does what it needs to and helps keep my skin clear, moisturised and soft.

Christmas Beauty Gift Guide

Hi, 

So for my first post I thought I do a beauty gift guide for christmas. As its December and we should be starting to buy presents for friends and family (well done those who already have!) but life gets extremely busy this time of the year, so knowing what to get can be stressful. I have picked out a range of gifts makeup and skincare wise. I have tired to find gifts for all budgets but if you have a tight budget and these suggestions are still a bit too expensive, don't worry as I am soon writing a gift guide for under $20. So lets get started:

Gift 2: No makeup makeup palette Too Faced $52 (mecca maxima) 

Gift 3: Gift Sexy Glamglow $92 (mecca maxima) 

Gift 4: Festive body butter trio $23.95. I would highly recommend going to the body shop to look for gifts as they have a whole range for all different budgets and in many yummy scents.
