Skinny Me Tea; 8 DAY TEATOX

SKINNY MY TEA            

8 Day Teatox

Free Shipping Worldwide



Im sure you've all heard of SkinnyMeTea.....
This brand has popped up everywhere on social media and has received an amazing response over the years.
These teas are suppose to work as a detox for your body, where your cleansing your system and getting rid of the nasties from your body. Now the only way I can explain this in simple terms is, that these teas pretty much work as laxatives!
Of course, all natural products are used, but together they work similar to a laxative. 
BE WARNED:  When doing a detox, please make sure you have a week off work or are able to make multiple trips to bathroom at your job. 
You will need to GO, with not much warning, and its not pretty....

I received the 8 day detox within my goody bag from Glamour Affair, so I'm sure all those who attended will be going on a cleanse sometime soon!
Im lucky enough to have a week from work as I'm transition into my new full time career. An what a better time to try this 8 day cleanse (lucky enough I'm at home!). 
So far I'm on my third day, and I am feeling good. 
The first day, the cleanse hit me quite hard and I was on the toilet all morning, BUT I am not complaining as I knew thats what was to expect from this detox. 
Of course this detox will effect everyone differently, but its expected to go to the toilet and cleanse out all of the nasties.

If you want to try SkinnyMeTea for the first time, then I would suggest trying this 8 day cleanse.. If you want to do even a bigger cleanse then I'd suggest the 14 day cleanse. 
An if you want to do it massive, and want an extreme cleanse (magnificent for the body), then I'd suggest having a look at the SMT transformation packs. 
Theirs 3 different transformation packs to chose from,
an majority include an exercise plan and an eating plan.

Heres a link to check out SMT's users transformations!!
Impressive I must say



I will let all of my lovely readers know how I'm going on my last day of the 8 day detox. So far I have had a good experience with tea and would defiantly do this again in the future. 
I suggest all of my readers have a look on the website (while they have 5% off orders), and try the SkinnyMeTea for yourself!

Erskine Falls- Lorne

Erskine Falls
Rated 4.5 stars on Trip Advisor 

Located only 5 minutes out of the main strip of Lorne, is the most beautiful waterfall I've visited. I've seen a few waterfalls in my time but this waterfall was situated in a gorgeous Rainforest with the best vibe. 


The thing I loved most about this waterfall is that it wasn't a far walk at all to get to. Most falls make you walk so far and up and down so many steps, but this waterfall was less then a minute away from the car park. 
It has two different railed lookouts, the upper and the lower and its the perfect place to take photos from. On the lower lookout you can go on a very adventurous walk along where the falls flow. This walk is for "experienced hikers only", because of the very slippery mud and rocks. But oh boy, it is worth it. The trail has been overgrown with nature, and its just so peaceful and beautiful. The raindrops fall off of the leaves and some of the prettiest most unique birds fly around. 






I know as a child my dad used to take my brother, sister and I to rain forests all the time. That was our adventure day, not shopping, bowling or places that kids usually go to. Our adventures on the weekend would be something we're we would get active, and see picture perfect places. I remember we would often go too Mount Macedon, and some of the best memories we had weren't even on the track. An what I mean by that, is I remember one time we pulled over on the side of the road, and we climbed up this massive hill into the rain forest. No designated walking track (and probably not the correct hiking foot wear) but it was some of the best fun!
An thats what I promote to families these days, family activities don't always have to cost money! An its not always healthy to chuck your kids in front of the TV or give them some technology so they be quiet. Get your kids to play outside, its healthy for them to be outdoors and get some dirt on them! Adventure to beautiful outdoors places, they're not hard to find!
Melbourne has a number of places to visit, and Erskine Falls is one of them!
I know I'll be making numerous trips back to Lorne, as I loved everything about the place. It was like Rain Forest meets Coastal beach and everything in between was a beautiful chilled town.

Sometimes we truly forget how beautiful our surroundings are. Majority of people travel far places and dream about destinations on the other side of the world, but we forget that we have some of the most beautiful places in the world right on our door step. 
I personally have a long list of places that I want to travel too including Asia, USA, Europe, and the list goes on. But I need to adventure around my own country as well, I need to visit the places that are the reason so many tourists come here. 

Love your surroundings, appreciate your own country. 
Visit Erskine falls and you won't regret it; a beautiful family day out xo

GLAMOUR AFFAIR

A well deserved post.

Glamour Affair
A blogger even created by Erin (threebeesblog) & Melissa (melissabubbles)
Melissa 
Erin

Last Saturday I went on a road trip with my sister Erin and Melissa too Sydney! Erin and Melissa had created their second Glamour Affair event and were holding it at Manly Beach, Sydney.
I was of course nice enough to come along and help them set up and of course attend the event as a blogger.
This event was created to unite all bloggers, and was one of the first to ever be created starting off in Melbourne. It was an all beauty bloggers event, and the aim was for bloggers to become friends, and also for them to be educated from PRS and brand ambassadors face to face about their beauty products.

Like majority road trips, their were a few downs but mostly ups!
We had some troubles with our accommodation but I won't go to much into that.
Erin and Melissa did a fantastic job creating and organising this event. The event was at the beautiful location Daniel San, the dojo bar.
All of the guests were sitting facing the Manly beach, and had a beer garden to hang out at and enjoy the beautiful view.
I was extremely thankful to be apart of something like this, as it really was an amazing opportunity.

I encourage all Beauty Bloggers to follow Glamour Affair au on social media, and enquire about the next event. Without the support from brands and bloggers, these events also could successfully run. So make sure your showing your support and come attend the next Beauty Blogger Glamour Affair event.








DID I MENTION THE GOODIE BAGS. OMG! I am going to be a very busy girl going through all my products and reviewing them this week. My Blog will be flooded.

A special thanks to Erin and Melissa xxxxxxxx
Thank you for making my first time to Sydney a memorable one.
Our road trip and extremely looooong drive was made very funny with you two.
Not only is Erin my mazing sister, but I also feel like Melissa is an older sister too me as well.

KLARA COSMETICS

KLARA COSMETICS 


http://www.klaracosmetics.com/shop/face/cream-foundation-stick.html#.VXAmY6YQlhA

THATS IT LADIES!
I have found the BEST brand for foundation coverage. 
A professional cosmetic brand made with 100% colour pigmentation. 
You can tell that this brand is quality and is worth every cent. I have absolutely fallen in love and have never had such good coverage and long lasting make up. 

I was really shocked when I found this brand being sold at Coles, yep Coles! I have heard a bit about this brand before and was told that a lot of professional make up artists depend on using Klara Cosmetics. 
Besides the quite expensive price, I thought I HAD to give it a go. I wouldn't be a blogger if I didn't try almost every cosmetic possible. 
So I purchased the Foundation stick and the G Glow Bronzer, and hurried home with excitement to try. 

- Foundation stick 
Rate: 10/10 
Best foundation I've possibly well... ever tried. 
Make your complexion picture-ready!
This cream foundation stick that can double as a concealer for an immaculate finish with adjustable coverage, from medium to full.
 The easy-to-blend texture instantly hides imperfections, dark circles and age spots with a smooth, even finish.

I have no freckles except a bunch of small freckles on the right side of my face. Not even are they spread evenly on my face, just a big bunch on the right side! I am a little self conscious about them as I just hate that they're in the one spot. So when searching for a foundation, I really look for something with amazing coverage. An to be honest, I've never really found something that I've been 100% happy till now....
What I love the most about this foundation besides the coverage is how very long lasting it is. My foundation coverage is PERFECT at the end of the day. 

The RRP is $50.00 ... BUT for those who want to try this amazing foundation and save money, head to a Coles that has a big range of make up in their cosmetic section, as all Klara products are 20%. I purchased mine at the Waurn Ponds Coles!

Recommendation: 10/10

Sugar lounge, Manly

Glamour affair girls loved Sugar lounge. 
A must visit! 
This weekend was the the weekend Erin, Melissa and myself drove up to Sydney for Glamour Affair. A bloggers event that was held at the most beautiful venue, Dan San bar- but I'll get into that more a little later. 
Throughout the extremely busy and stressful weekend we often wanted a nice and easy feed. Something that would lift us up and make us feel good. 
We found this bar/resturant (beach side) a few stores down from where we were staying- Novotel. Again; I will get into where we were staying on a seperate post, because I can't tell everyone enough how great the Novotels customer service and services were. 







So one morning we were on the look out for a breakfast destination that tickled our fancy. We came across the Sugar Lounge, which looked like Hawaii had come to manly and opened up a store. The atmosphere was beachy, laid back and everything hawain related, it was awesome! So this place had defiantly caught our eye and we could wait to see the menu. 
The menu delivers something for everyone, and I was quite amazed at the Breaky menu. I settled on the fruit bowl and a bagel. PERFECT. I've been raving on about this fruit salad for days now, hahaha. Mix of delicious fruits, with a side of yoghurt and honey, yum yum yum. 

Our customer service especially was fantastic, the staff were beautiful. I actually noticed one lady working all weekend, she always had a smile on her face. But I couldn't help but notice how much of a hard worker she was.
After having breakfast their, we made two other seperate trips; that's how great our experience was. 


 I highly recommend all too check this place out. Absolutely beautiful.

MAX FACTOR-EXCESS VOLUME

Max Factors
EXCESS VOLUME 
EXTREME IMPACT 


Indulge your lashes with the ultimate combination of a volumising base, then an intensifying lacquer. Take your lashes to excess. 
  • Volumising base for excessively thick lashes.
  • Intensifying lacquer for a polished jet black finish.
  • Seals in volume for all-day impact.
  • Intense darkness lasts all day and night.
  • Easily remove with an oil-based remover


Mascaras are so god dam hit and miss. Its so easy to find a bad mascara that makes all your lashes stick together and just ruins your whole make-up. 
But every now and then you'll find the most perfect mascara that does everything you want it too. 
This right here is the mascara that I've been looking for. Keeps your eye lashes long, thick (not to thick), spreads them out perfectly, gives them that great jet black and lasts all day long. 

I've noticed that a lot of the mascaras I've worn lately just rub off throughout the day, and you can see my blonde annoying embarrassing lashes coming through. I also usually use 2-3 different mascaras to give my lashes that good thickness, but I literally only need this one mascara for perfect lashes. 

I naturally have quite long lashes but this gives it just that little extra length that makes your stand out and look all pretty. 
You can see how much in my photo above just how long they look!

TOP TIPS FOR HOW TO APPLY
  • 1
    Use the volumising base end of the mascara on the lashes first.
  • 2
    Starting at the root of the lashes, hold the want horizontal and move the wand from side to side, root to tip coating every lash.  
  • 3
    Apply 3 coats to the upper and lower lashes without allowing the mascara to dry between coats.
  • 4
    Whilst mascara is still tacky, apply 2 coats of the intensifying lacquer end of the mascara to intensify and seal the look.
  • 5
    To touch-up any mistakes or smudging, dip a cotton bud into an oil based makeup remover and gently dab on to area needed to remove.
