Claim: "Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick has a formula that feels weightless on the lips. It includes innovative pigments that delivers high impact colour in one swipe. The elasticolour formulation is designed to distribute rich colour pigments evenly over the lips and allows for a comfortable feel. The formula is also enriched with moisturisers and antioxidants such as sweet almond oil to improve lip texture and prevent drying." (from www.beautyheaven.com.au) Packaging: Love, Love, Love. It's gorgeous. The quilted pattern, the tops (showing quite an accurate representation of the colour) and the way REVLON is embossed on the lpstick itself, reminds me of high-end packaging.  Formula:  They are smooth and easy to apply. The colour payoff is actually quite sheer, so to get good coverage you need to really build it up and if you have more pigmented lips then your lip colour will definitely show through. Even with my medium pigmented lips, my natural lip colour shows thr...

First of all I LOVE how this smells. It smells like lemon candy. OMG soooooo good. But that's all I really like about this. There are  a few problems with No Drought. And although I love the smell it's not enough to make me want to buy it EVER again.  First of all it's white...like white white. I have thick dark brown/black hair and it leaves a grey cast in my hair...not very attractive. TIP: Do not apply the dry shampoo to your normal part in your hair. Instead section off your hair, if you have thick hair like mine section it off a couple of times, and apply it to the roots. By applying it to other sections of your hair you can kind of hide the ugliness of the white cast.  Second if you've got thick hair applying this in one section, not enough. I actually apply it in three sections and it still doesn't absorb much oil. How I use this is by applying it to my roots, rubbing it into my scalp and about a centimetre into my hair with my fingers then ...

Today I'm reviewing/comparing the Essence Stay All Day Long Lasting Eyeshadow in 01 Coppy Right (whoa that's a long name) and the Maybelline Colour Tattoo in 25 Bad to the Bronze.  Left: Coppy Right Right: Bad to the Bronze Basic Information Essence Price: $5.50 Weight: 5.5 grams/0.19 oz Availability: Target and Priceline Maybelline Price: $11.95 Weight: 4 grams/0.14 oz Availability: Anywhere Maybelline is sold Packaging Both come in small twist up jars (Essence - Plastic and Maybelline - Glass). I like the compactness of the essence but being that it's plastic I feel like the product will dry up faster. Pigmentation The Maybelline is much more pigmented then the Essence. You don't need a lot of the Maybelline to get the full impact of the colour. Whereas you really need to layer the Essence but in saying that Coppy Right is easily buildable. Colour Both are BEAU-TI-FUL bronze shades with a metallic finish. Coppy Right has s...

Sorry about the back to back haul but there are a few good deals going on that I wanted to mention. I NEVER usually spend this much money within a month but I received a fair bit of Christmas money and I wanted to spoil myself.  My Chemist/Chemist Warehouse Currently having 50% of Maybelline, Revlon and Rimmel  I picked up... Rimmel Waterproof kohl kajal in black - $4.97 AUD Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Cherish, Charm and Precious (from top to bottom) - $8.98 AUD Mecca Maxima Hourglass Extreme Shine Lipgloss in Lush - $42 AUD Stilla In The Lights Palette - $62 AUD David Jones The Balm i s having buy one, get 50% off the second product excludes sale items. This Mary-Lou Manizer kit was a great deal that I couldn't pass off. It originally retails for $49.95, valued at $81.95 which is an amazing deal already but I bought it on special for $34.95 which is the cost of Mary-Lou Manizer alone.  Bright & Pretty Cosm...

This haul is about 3 months late but better late then never. So if you live in Melbourne you have probably heard of Chadstone Shopping Centre. Every 3-4 months they hold this event type thing known as VIP night. It's ALWAYS on a Wednesday starting in the morning till midnight (I think). You can sign up  here  to receive emails letting you know when VIP night is. So you're probably wondering why I'm telling you all this, right?? VIP night has some AMAZ-ING sales on clothes, decor, book, perfumes and cosmetics. You can get some awesome deals on makeup and one of the most exciting brands I've seen discounted is Inglot, they have about 10%-15% off their full priced items which is MUCH better then paying full price.   I wanted to test the waters before going Inglot crazy so I only picked up 5 eyeshadows from the freedom system. For those who are unfamiliar with the freedom system it allows you to pick from a WIDE variety of colours and products you're interested in s...

These are a few products I've finished and collected over the last 3 months.  1. Organic Care Nourish Conditioner I've been using this conditioner for a year now mainly because it's so cheap. You can get it at Safeway and Priceline for around $3. But I continue to repurchase it because it smells like coconut and macadamia and makes my hair nice and soft. Its also environmentally friendly and doesn't contain harsh chemicals. I HIGHLY recommend checking it out.  Repurchase: Definitely 2. Derma 3 in 1 Facial Wipes This is exclusive to Coles. You can buy it for $2 for 25 wipes but they always have 3 for 2 sales. It's good value for an awesome product. I don't wear liquid foundation so I can say anything about that. I do however where a lot of eye makeup. It does a decent job, removing about 98%, however it doesn't remove waterproof mascara :( But other than that it gets the job done. It feels really fresh on the skin, the wipes don't dry ou...
