First off, this looks likes a shaving gel. Second off, this lathers like a shaving gel. And third off, I will be using this as just a shaving gel, because it freaks me out using a shower gel to cleanse my armpits with. I don't care if the label says it's a shower gel, my brain is convinced it's a shave gel and...
It's funny how I'll use a product, like it enough to add to my daily routine and then promptly forgot about reviewing it, even when it's (literally) right in front of my eyes. Australis' Lash TLC mascara is one such gem that I use for a basic everyday look, for the days that I want to look more naturally pretty, rather than a...
I've had this serum kicking around my bathroom since March. It's not because I didn't want to write about it as soon as I got my paws on it, but because it's a treatment serum. In my experience as someone who regularly rubs stuff on her face, active treatment serums like this one need to be given at least a few weeks trial...
So I had like half an hour spare before I had to leave for work the other day and was faced with a difficult decision - eat breakfast or give myself purple ombre, My Little Pony hair. Obviously I went for a sensible breakfast of bran with almond milk and fresh carrot and kale juice. Lol jokes, I used a Kevin Murphy Color...
Don't look at me like that. I know everybody with a Blogger account has covered these sweet little thangs, and that they are loved like a Paul Rudd shaped body pillow (nightly and in the morning too) Obviously I'm not revealing anything groundbreaking here, but darn I like these little tubes of hydration. I impulse-bought two, in Protecting Berry (in a limited edition tube) and...
I've had this little pot stashed away for the last few months, forgotten in the aftermath of a Priceline 45 minute bender (lipstick was everywhere, man, everywhere! You weren't there! So...many...swatches. Never forget, Priceline rampage of '12), and I never got around to trying it out. Cut to today and I spy it in my underwear drawer (Why? Honestly at this point your guess...
LIVE, from Michaela's bed, it's Lather Rinse Repeat! Yup, I'm snuggled up in bed, pecking away at this post on the boyfriend's iPad. I could go downstairs and get my laptop, but that's like something Ironmen or elite athletes or people who aren't lazy would do. I've already used up my allotted 'walk up and down the stairs' for today when I grabbed...
I've been taking this jade baby for a ride for the last week. It's an unusual creamy mint, unusual not that it's a strange colour because I see a lot of brands trotting out similar shades, but because it's so lovely and opaque after a coat and perfect after two. Love that. Drying time is average, and I sped it up with some...
I was so excited to get the Blush Me! Blush in Pink from MeMeMe in a very generous goody bag at last weekend's Sydney Beauty Blogger meet-up. I've flicked through the MeMeMe website a few times and had been putting off a purchase until I at least made a dent in my current rotation of product. I'm also sometimes a bit leery of...
I wasn't actually going to review this one. Something about the hype and the ridiculous up-pricing for the Australian market, that these are basically drug store brand tinted lip balms going for over A$20 really pisses me off. So much, that when I was sent a Lip Butter in Creamsicle in a Aus-US swap, despite originally requesting to be sent it, I gave...
You guys know I'm down with doing stuff to my hair, from pink balayage to an ill-advised fringe (you will NEVER see photos of that one), so I was more than happy to accept when the folks at Featherlocks by Condition Culture asked me to try their feather extensions, made from rooster feathers. I knew about them mostly from a few celebrities whose music...
Check out the gold shimmer on this little number! It seriously looks how a strawberry daiquiri tastes. I'm obsessed. ...
Mimosa seems to be having a mini-moment (the flower, not the yummy cocktail). Known as wattle to us Aussies, it's a distinctive dry and powdery flower that has recently popped up in Versace's Yellow Diamond, Annick Goutal's limited edition Le Mimosa and before them, Yves Saint Laurent's Cinema (discontinued, and one I'm hoping to pick it up on the cheap). The latest scent...
I love a good beauty product with a plus. Pluses claim to add moisture, or even skin tone or provide leprechaun protection you can trust. The two Ere Perez lip products I'm covering here each have their own plus. One contains 'Rich Olive Oil', the other 'Real Rosehip', and both claim moisturising and smoothing properties. From left, Rich Olive Oil Lipsticks in Dance...
