Spring Trend - Coral Lips

Many celebrities have been wearing this lip and we have been seeing it in a lot of spring catwalk shows. 

Yes Spring is finally on its way, that means tans, beach and spring fashion. Sorry for all those people that live in another country and spring has just passed but here in Australia we are heading into spring!!

For this Spring one of the biggest trends is coral/orange lips. Know this may sound scary but you can also tone down and just go for a more of a peach lip, but I personally think this colour lips looks beautiful against tanned skin!


These are my top 3 coral lip products:
1. Mac cosmetics lipstick in Ravishing. 

This is a beautiful coral lipstick, it is a creme-sheen finish therefore it is really soft and moisturising for the lips. 
2. Mac cosmetics Dazzle glass in Smile.

This lipgloss is for someone who truly loves shimmer and sparkle. This lip gloss has a beautiful coral colour and looks stunning on the lips because of the pink shimmer. 
3. Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Coral Reef 
I love this lipgloss because it is pigmented enough to wear on its own and still look amazing!

July Favourites :)

I would First like to say, where has July gone!!!! It feels like only yesterday my sister ran up to me singing "a pinch and a punch for the first day of the month!"
But anyway in July I discovered a few makeup items, some low-end and some high-end.

1. Maybelline Color Sensational in 035 Pink Peony

I Love the consistency of the Maybelline lipsticks because they glide on so smoothly!!
I also love the colour of this lipstick because it is the perfect dark pink to warm up your face for spring!
I also love that is has shimmer in it because you don't have to put a gloss over it because your lips already look like they have lipgloss on them.

2. Loreal Volume Million Lashes

This mascara is my new favourite volumizing mascara! It also does not clump because it has a special whipper that whips any extra mascara off the brush when you pull it out! There is nothing special about the brush but somehow it makes my lashes look amazing!! It also makes them super black!!

3. Nars Blush in Orgasm


I know the name is slightly odd but I have been loving this blush because it gives the perfect flush of colour to your cheeks. It is a pinky blush with golden undertones and looks great on most skin tones! What I also love abut this product is it has a mirror which is great for close ups.

4. Ganier Anti-Dark Circles Roll On

This is the perfect under-eye concealer because it not only hides you dark circles, because it has a yellowy tint to it which counteracts the blue under your eyes, it also de-puffs them and gets rid of any bags. It has a little roller ball that you roll along your under eyes and then you blend in the concealer and  bang you look like you have got 12 hours sleep :)


5. Mac Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle

This is the perfect highlight colour for winter or the colder months because it gives just the right amount of shimmer and shine. If you are wondering what a highlighting product does it enhances you features on your face and if you put it on the tops of you cheeks it gives them a natural and healthy glow.
So this Mac powder does just the trick.


6. Batiste Dry Shampoo in Blush

This is one of the best dry shampoos I have tried because it takes away any oils in your hair while leaving you hair smelling lovely! It does come out white so it may not work as well on darker haired people but it is quite cheap so it is worth tying.

My New Obsession!

I am in love with my new perfume that I got for my birthday.
And it is the ......
VERA WANG PRINCESS!!

This Perfume is always talked about on YouTube and on blogs. It is very popular and there is a good reason for that.
The first thing that caught my attention to this perfume is the bottle. At first I had no idea how it would stand up because it was shaped like a love heart! But then when I looked at it I realised that the bottle extended outwards towards the back creating a stand. I also love the crown on top because it makes you feel special when you wear it, it makes you feel like a Princess.

Anyways now onto the actual product itself. The perfume is a baby purple colour, and it smells amazing and I am not exaggerating!! It is a fruity smell and is quite sweet, the notes are apple, citrus and apricot with a few hints of vanilla and chocolate! YUM!
This perfume I wear during the day because it is light and very girly and feminine. It is has great staying power so you do not need to keep topping up though out the day.
I really do recommend this perfume, so don't forget to put it on your birthday or christmas list!!
