Applying Foundation Series - Episode 2 - Sponge

Hi Pretties

I finally have gotten around to doing episode 2 of my applying foundation series.  This time I have used a sponge.

You can check out the video below!

Review - Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons

Hi Pretties

I thought that I should do a review of the Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons since I have just given away a set.  These are a new product to Face of Australia.  A little bonus, they are against animal testing.

When you purchase these they come in a set of 3 for $14.95 which is not a bad price.  While these are marketed at being a sheer gloss I actually think the red and nude have quite a good colour payoff while the pink is quite sheer.

They have a wind up mechanism at the bottom and a clear cap on the top.  My one real dislike with these is that the lid does not have any type of locking system to it and just really sits on there.  I'm a bit scared of just throwing it in my bag and when I pull it out it will be all broken and there will be lip crayon all through my bag!

Macaron: The red shade is quite cool tone and I find this to be the most pigmented.  This is my favourite in the set and I think it is the perfect red lip when you are too scared to wear that big bold red lip.

Cupcake: Is a quite sheer.  I hink this is the sheerest of the three.  Again this is quite blue toned and also the most moisturising.  I don't think this is an overly exciting shade on me, but on someone with less pigmented lips it might have some more colour.

Sundae: The 'nude' of the bunch.  I actually find this colour to be more of a pink than a nude but still quite pretty.  It is also pretty moisturising which is a bonus.

All in all I think these are pretty good for the money.  Check out my lip swatches below!

Applying foundation series - Episode 1 - Fingers (VIDEO)

Hi Pretties

Happy Sunday!  I hope you all had a great weekend.

I had an interesting weekend.  I set myself a challenge that I would have a zero spend weekend (excluding grocery shopping and petrol) and I did pretty well.  I spent 50 cents renewing a dvd at the shop and that I pinched from my partner so I spend zero of my own money.  Yea!  Was a nice challenge.  You guys should give it a go and let me know how you go :)

Anyway, no haul again tonight due to Project X Pan so take a look at my explanation post of whats coming up over the next few weeks!

Here is Episode 1 - Applying foundation with your fingers.

Enjoy!

Where are the hauls and whats with the videos?

Hi Pretties

As you know I like to do a weekly haul on Sunday nights.  I'm currently doing Project X Pan though, so there is no hauling going on.

So I've decided to try to keep Sunday nights a little special so I'm going to do a video every week!  It may be a review or a tutorial or a how to or just something else a little different.

To start off I'm going to do a series on how to apply foundation....

I hope you enjoy this and don't miss the hauls too much :)

Updated Make Up Storage - May 2012 VIDEO!

Hi Pretties

So I said last week or the week before I was going to do an updated make up storage post with my new drawers, and I finally managed to get it online!  I filmed this during the week last week and desperately tried to get this uploaded last night in lieu of my Sunday night haul as I'm currently on Project X Pan, but Blogger would not upload it directly so I've had to go via YouTube which took me 8 hours to upload!  Gah!  Anyway it's finally here!

I wanted to do a video as I thought a post would take forever to go through all my drawers so this would be the easiest way to see everything.

I hope you enjoy!
