NYX and RIMMEL LONDON

Todays Look.

Today before work I decided to review two products that I use almost every day.
- Rimmel London wonderful mascara
- N Y X "butt naked eyes"


These two products honestly get used by me every day.
I could swear by both of them, they are completely amazing.
Im always using creams & browns on my eyes so this palette is great for me.
As for the mascara oh my god, I have found the mascara I will be using for the rest of my life. I sound like Im over exaggerating but im being completely honest. I hate mascaras that give you that spider looking eye lashes. An its due to them being really thick or having a crappy brush. What I needed was a mascara exactly like Rimmels wonderful.
The brush is perfect and the mascara is a perfect texture.
My eye lashes are instantly full and long after a few strokes of this mascara.
Here was my end look. (Please excuse the towel, I sometimes apply my make up straight after getting out of the shower, hahaha)

I recommend these products, 10/10.
 
 


ASUS TRANSFORMER

Asus Transformer tablet 

Estimated RRP- $599
Shopping Express.com.au price- $479

http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au

Now for people who travel a lot and like to take their computer with them, I understand unplugging your big Mac computer and carrying it around is no option!
So a laptop is perfect, but.... What about a laptop that also transforms into a tablet. 2 in 1!
This is perfect for when im walking around the house, i'd just detach it and use the touch screen tablet. When I'm needing to write emails or posts then I just attach the keyboard and its as easy as that. Their were a few things that I had to get used too, because I have been getting used to Apple switching to Microsoft again is a big change.
Other things I had to get used was just things like the controls and the desktop! But once I got used too it, it was great.
With a Microsoft account you log in, or you can easily make a new account. With an account you can download apps on to your transformer, some apps that even apple cant download!
Now besides all the amazing things about this cool little laptop, I did find a flaw...
The internet seems very slow, now their may be something to fix that I am really not too sure. But it did get a little annoying waiting for things to load.
I tried to think of something to compare the laptops size too, the only thing  I can think of is a book! So it can quite easily just chuck it into your handbag. I cant get over how simple this laptop is and how much tine you can save by taking this with you on your travels.





I would recommend the ASUS TRANSFORMER to anyone who travels and needs to take their laptop with them.
This would be perfect for students, who are always going to uni and needing their laptop with them. If you want to make the laptop that little bit thinner and smaller you can just take the tablet with you, Its honestly so simple and easy. Check out your locl computer/technology store and see what their price is!
Personally I think JB HI FI is one of the cheapest.
9/10 for this product :)

THE BODY SHOP/ COLOUR CRUSH

Isn't The Body Shop just amazing ?!

So many great products including make-up, scrubs, mists, moisturises, skin care, hair care, bath products & so much more, the list is endless!
But today I have had the pleasure of reviewing their colour crush lipsticks.
Three beautiful colours which I will all be wearing!



These shades include (in order): 120 raspberry in love, 140 make my heart gleam & 340 berry me.

Now theirs a few things I need in a lipstick to be able to really like it. The Body Shops lipsticks are perfect and tick all of the boxes. A lipstick that has moisture and isn't too dry on the lips, a lipsticks that stays and doesn't rub off so easy & lastly of course a beautiful colour.
Now i'm not one that loves extremely bright or fluorescent colours. I like nude, cream shades or slightly darker colours.
Here is what the lipsticks looked like on!

120 RASPBERRY IN LOVE
 140 MAKE ME HEART GLEAM
340 BERRY ME


The best thing about these Body Shop colour crush lipsticks is that they are so affordable and worth it. RRP- $19.95
They can be brought in The Body Shop stores, online or even better you can host a party at home! I have a few friends who host parties so even better get in contact with me if you would like to host a party! Or if you would like to become your own party consultant go online-

Calvin Klein- Reveal

Classy.                Elegant.             Sophisticated.            


Calvin kliens new realease is here, Reveal! 
Personally myself, I find it very hard to find a perfume fragrance I fall in love with. 
Something that doesn't give me a head ache or I just get over wearing...
Today when I received this beauty an smelt it for the first time I instantly fell in love. 

The smell of this perfume is so classy and beautiful. 
Have you ever judged someone straight away by their smell? Haha 
Whether a person that walks by that smells yuck or someone who walks pasts smelling amazing, I always seem to judge them by their smell as well as appearance. It's just something that us humans do! 

Well this perfume would immediately give the effect of making someone believe your classy or elegant, an most importantly approachable! An oh the boys will be loving it... 
Have you ever had multiple people ask you what perfume you were wearing? Well that was me today!! 
10/10 rate this amazing perfume. It'll be one hell of those perfumes I always buy and keep in my colection. Rpt- estimated $70!

Cleos Bachelor of the year #2014

The event of the year! 

An invite only party @ St. Hotel - St Kilda, for the announcement of Cleos 2014 Bachelor. 

Wow was my night amazing! Meeting some familiar celebrity faces that I've seen on TV. 
Guests included master chef contestants, big brother stars, the bachelor contestants, models, football players, actors, tv presenters & so many more! 
It was a glamorous night (and messy for some) filled with unlimited free beer, wine, soft drink & cruisers. 
Here were the 2014 top 30 bachelors-


As you walked on the red carpet into the St hotel, the bachelors surrounded you! You'd think they'd be quite snobby but almost all of them were happy to come up to you and start a conversation. I had one on one conversations with many of the voted bachelors and not only were they oh so handsome but they were so out going! 
You may ask why this was the event of the year & I'll give you a list of things that made this night so amazing: 
- free alcohol 
- body shop make up touch ups 
- 4 bars 
- photo booth 
- remote control race track 
- endless oysters and rice paper rolls 
- beer pong 
- beer garden
- the best live music 
- one on one conversations with the bachelors and others celebs
- an the BEST freebie gift bag I've ever received 

My sister & I snuck into the photo booth! 

I met the lovely Tully smith 
I met the awesome Bondi Hipsters! My favourite two out of all of the bachelors. Such huge personallities & the best sense of humour. 

We had a billion and one photo opportunities and oh I definitely took up my photo storage on my phone 😂

An then we played um..... Remote control car-track... Best party idea ever! 

I got some snaps of the bachelors before the announcement of the winner was! 

Before the announcement guests were able to go upstairs and have their make up touched up by The Body Shop, followed by a free lipstick to take home! 
 They also gave me this amazing hand jewellery fake tattoo which lasts up to 4 days! 
The announcement was finally taking place!!! 

And the winner was... Drum role please 🎉🎉🎉 
THIEN NGUYEN 
, wooooo

Then the after party took place upstairs with beer pong!! 

But the best thing about this amazing night was the goodie bag. I mean it when I say I've never had a better gift bag to take home. It was jam packed full of amazing products. Things like st tropes, body shop products, a cruiser and so much more. Have a look!!  
My favourite two products were the amazing lipsticks and this awesome new product called insta blur! Wowww, I'll be doing a review about that! 

And lastly here was my outfit for the night :) 
My dress was from Cotton On and shoes from Glassons! 

All in all an amazing night! I absolutely loved it. I will be doing review on all products given and I can't wait ;).
Xoxoxo

COTTON ON



When receiving a job interview for Cotton On a few months back, I thought to myself... Why have I never pictured myself working for this company. When I had a look in my wardrobe I realised that unintentionally three quarters of my wardrobe is made up of Cotton On clothing..... Their brand is becoming one of the most well known clothing brands in AU and so many other countries. An its because the clothing is so affordable and so often changing to keep up with trends.
But I am not blogging about how great Cotton On's clothing is today (even though the clothing is great). 

After working with the Cotton On group for a few months now i've truly seen how great the company its self is. Now am I not just boasting about them because this is the company I work for, but I feel the need to mention all the great things that they do. 

In the past I worked for a marketing company who would sign people up to monthly donations for something that they said was important (not mentioning names) but I knew it was majority a load of crap... An thats why people walk past those people through the shopping centre that work for charities or do the old pretend their on the phone.. Its because people don't actually trust in the company and believe in them, they don't honestly know where their money is going. An personally I believe that most of those charity programs and such are a load of crap, a big scam! 
But the Cotton On company are on of the few that run charity programs that are 100% legit. 

We sell our own products in over 1,000 Cotton On Group stores globally, and all of the proceeds go back to the Cotton On Foundation to support those most in need. It is as simple as that.We are different to most other charities; rather than cutting cheques, we roll our sleeves up and get our hands dirty to help out our mates. We lean on the Cotton On Group resources to help deliver projects at the lowest operating cost, while ensuring that all needs are met within a realistic timeframe … and we have fun doing it.Our projects are based on four pillars; health, education, sustainability and infrastructure. These pillars were derived from the United Nations Millennium Development Goals and form the basis of every project undertaken by the Cotton On Foundation.In line with the Millennium Development Goals and our mission to develop 20,000 educational places in Southern Uganda by 2020, we are helping to reduce poverty and improve the lives of those in need. We truly are in partnership with our customers, and we’re proud of the fact that they can follow their dollar and the journey it takes, including the real impact it has on people’s lives.
I honestly recommend jumping on-
http://www.cottononfoundation.org/our-work
and having a read about what the company actually does. 
Its truly amazing how many Jobs Cotton On as created in Uganda, an how many kids they have helped become students. If Cotton On continue their amazing work with the help of customers Uganda may beat poverty, and hey.. wouldn't that be amazing. 

Unlike other charity companies, cotton on isn't exactly just taking your money, when you make a donation your getting a product for it in return. 
By purchasing a $2 water bottle, a bracelet/anklet and other items, all of the proceeds go to the charity in Uganda. 
Lastly if you've considered applying for a job at Cotton On I highly recommend it! Not only is the actual job role amazing fun, but the benefits are oh so great. As just an average employee no matter if its casual, part time or full time, you receive 50% full priced items!!! Now a result of a shopping addiction.... haha. 
But working at Cotton On you also have the opportunity to build up through the company and become higher roles. 

Next time you go into Cotton On, have a second think about maybe sparing that $2 change and donating to the Charity by purchasing something great!



RIMMEL LONDON

Rimmel London (foundation) 

Get the look 

Sorry that I haven't been posting a lot lately guys. But today I would love to review Rimmel Londons foundation! Only girls who where foundation very often will know how important it is to find a keeper.
By a keeper I mean a brand that delivers all the things you want in a foundation. 
  • Long lasting 
  • Colour match 
  • Texture 
  • Fragrance 
Now let me explain a few of these points. I've had some pretty weird smelling foundations, and you don't want to be wearing something on your face all day that doesn't smell pretty. COLOUR MATCH! Most importantly, a colour that matches your face and doesn't give you that gross 'cake face' line below your chin. Texture meaning a foundation that isn't blotchy and makes your skin look oily or rough. An lastly; long lasting. I often find that some of the foundations i've used wear off, an after a few hours of wearing it I can barely tell I have foundation on! 

Today I reviewed Rimmel Londons 25 hour foundation. An boy was I impressed!


PARTY-PROOF, TRANSFER-PROOF
FLAWLESS SKIN AROUND THE CLOCK!
AVAILABLE IN FULL OR NUDE COVERAGE.












This here is the foundation that I used today. Now warning you, I may look VERY hideous in this before photo! But its needed to show the difference with this amazing foundation on.


Here is my before and after photo. 
An lastly the finished result...
Now its obvious the wonders this foundation does, but the first thing that stood out to me was the fragrance of this foundation. It honestly smells so nice and fresh. Unlike some thick foundations, this foundation was smooth and silky like, which made my face feel soooo nice & soft. 
Usually while Im working all day my face starts to sweat due to all the hard work I do (which is always ;) )! But today by the end of the day, my face looked exactly like it did after I applied it. I almost didn't want to wash my face after the day because it just looked so flawless! 



I think ill be using Rimmels foundation a lot more now that Ive had the chance to try it! I'll definitely be giving some of my foundations the flick and making some room for Rimmels products. 
Very impressed! 
Highly suggest giving their foundation a go, if your not sure or purchasing it then why not go to a store and test it.... No harm in that! 
BUT if going to the store to test this product is a little to hard for you, Rimmel have made an amazing program on their website where you can 'TRY IT ON".
They give you a picture of a models face where you can test the many different shades and see Before and After photos of the models. 
Give it a go;

Tuscan tan

No better feeling then a fresh tan! 


For a special occasion I believe a tan is needed, feeling white and pasty isn't a confidence booster. 
For a while now for special occasions I have been going to Unique Day spa in Melton for my tans. 
For a full body tan, it's priced at $35.
Unique day spa not only do tans, they do;
- spa treatments 
- manicure and pedicure 
- special occasion make up 
- waxing 

It's really hard to find a place that gives you a good tan, now I believe it's very important for not only the person whom tans to be good but the actual the tan they use! 
It was about 3 years ago that I used Tuscan tan, and I've never looked back. 
Tuscan Tan has developed the only spray tan solution in the world that contains ‘Violet-Tone Complex’, a blend of plant-based ingredients that eliminates the orange undertones commonly associated with fake tan, ensuring a natural finish every time.

Tuscan Tan professional spray tan solutions adapt to any skin type, and any depth of colour can be achieved from lightly sun-kissed through to the darkest of tans. The tan dries immediately on application, is completely odourless once developed, and lasts seven or more days before gradually and evenly fading.

There are two Tuscan Tan professional spray tan solutions available;

Original Spray Tan Solution - Develops over 8 hours

Tuscan tan is used at many leading salons and you'd be able to find one locally I'm almost certain! 

My tan lasts for about 3 days before going blotchy. The longer I leave it the darker I get because it develops! Then I shower before my occasion (don't wash just rinse) and then pat my self dry lightly. 

Here's a photo of my tan, it's not a very good tan, but I can tell you I rate this tan! 


10/10 do reccomend

ALPHA CUTS

Alpha Cuts, bye alpha pro nutrition.

"Greatness expected"

  • Thermogenic 
  • Most effective 
  • For new generation of athletes 
  • Maximum energy 
  • Suppress Appetite 
  • Speed metabolism


This product is dead set amazing. With going to the gym a lot i've needed something like this that helps my metabolism and gives me a lot more energy. 


Alpha Cuts contains 30 serves, only 1 scoop needed into each drink. 
Only to be consumed 6 hours before bed time as it increases you energy levels and you don't want it to give you any troubles sleeping. 
I've found that it gives me a better workout because it just allows me to complete that extra rep or run those extra kms.
I personally put less water with my serve so its just easier too drink, if you obviously want the flavour to be a little less strong then I recommend adding more water. 
I often take a pre-workout before going to the gym if I'm having a night time workout. Its hard to keep motivated with barely any energy. Thats why alpha cuts works great because its works as a pre-workout as well. Honestly why would you buy various different products when you can buy 1 that does it all?
I honestly believe in this product because I've seen the results my self. I can notice when I have and haven't taken this product as my metabolism just s=isnt as good when I miss taking it. 

I'll defiantly be going back for more Alpha Cuts, its GREAT! 


Have I honestly not sold this product to you yet?
Check out their website, and watch their promo video! 

Milky Foot

Milky Foot...

My feet feel like a babies bum! 
I don't think i've ever had so much fun reviewing a product, it was the weirdest/best feeling.
This product has made my feet so silky and smooth, I no longer have to feel gross about my feet!

All you have to do is cut open these plastic sock looking things, and slide your feet in. Make sure you're at home while doing these as you have to leave them on for 45-60 minutes. 
All though I was walking around like a penguin, 

they were quite easy to deal with on. 
After the directed time you just wash your feet in warm water and towel dry. 
My feet now feel sooooo smooth its great.

What milk foot does it exfoliates all of your old skin off of your feet, and leaves them feeling great. Before getting one of them feet shaver things and possibly making your feet worst, try milky feet. Its honestly a lot easier and surely better for your feet. 



               Thank you Milky Foot!
