Well mainly for my wallet, I on the other hand have been missing makeup shopping a lot! I know while in Japan I have the great opportunity to try new and exciting brands, but to be honest none of the brands that I'm interested are sold near me. Also some of the more popular brands are ones that are already readily available back home. Mildly defeats the point which sucks, I have honestly been more interested in skin care! But I will be making a post about that at a later date (but am working on it).<br />
<br />
So, the big question! What exactly did I buy recently to make me write a post?<br />

Ta-Da!<br />
<br />
Some products will be easily identified (the M.A.C. products) while others are all new and super exciting!!<br />

First off I will talk about the face masks, because lets face it, these are a huge part of skin care in Japan, I can find face masks everywhere, all doing crazy and wonderful things! Also sometimes you can buy face masks with crazy faces on them! The one of the right is exactly that! When I use this I will have to remember to take a photo, because the design on the front will be on the sheet! I also find it interesting that I can buy packs like the one of the left. There is only one package but there are 7 sheets inside! This was the cheaper of the two at around 350 yen which is crazy cheap for face masks!</div>

Next up are some of the products that I was the most excited for, and then slightly confused and saddened by. Now it is no secret that I am a HUGE Sailor Moon fan, and while in Japan I have been on the look out for the Sailor Moon themed makeup! Here are some that I have so far picked up (I'm on the hunt for a powder that is going to be released soon as well!) Two of these came together, which was the green one at the back and the one liner with the pink on pink packaging. The green packing is meant to represent Sailor Jupiter (her symbol is even on the right hand side of the packaging) and as one would expect it is a green liner! Though it is a little different because it is a liquid liner with glitter/shimmer. Although when I first opened this it took me AGES to get the product to the right consistency which at first was very worrying. I have yet to try this on but I am def excited to see how it turns out! The product this came with is kind of a disappointment. It is meant to be a black liner, it is def not a black that I am used to. I don't know how I am going to go with this.<br />
<br />
EDIT: (I wrote this post a while ago and so need to add this in. I have since stored all of the liners upside-down for the past week and again tried swatching this on the back of my hand. It is now as black and beautiful as I hoped and expected it to be. I will honestly now most likely go and pick up a backup for collecting purposes as I think I am going to be in love with this liner!)<br />
<br />
Next is the last Sailor Moon product, which I am thankfully super excited about! Admittedly I misinterpreted the packaging (I didn't actually READ what was written) and thought this was going to be a white eyeliner, turned out it was brown! Oh well I have been interested in trying a brown liner and from swatching it on my hand it looks promising!<br />
<br />
The last product is a 24 hours liner that is also meant to be water proof! A friend said she wanted to try it and I was also interested, so I picked it up and am going to test it out! Thankfully this is a lovely black liner with a SUPER sharp tip which I'm excited about. I feel like this will be great for detail work, I also happen to like a thin line for liner which works out great!<br />

<br /></div>
Here are the swatches for the above products, the appear in the order that I talked about them above. As you can see the one second from the right isn't really what you would expect a black liner to be like. I was really upset but I will most prob use this more as a collector piece. (Again the Sailor Moon black liner is now preforming properly! It is now as black as the swatch on the far left thankfully!)<br />

<br />
Next up are the M.A.C. products that I was most excited about getting! I haven't gotten anything from M.A.C. in a while even though I have def wanted to because I have been missing using them in my routine. But when I saw that this collection had hit Japan I knew that I wanted something (for the packaging) but I wasn't really sure what I wanted. At first I nothing really jumped out at me but the second time I found some products that I knew I would enjoy.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First up is my first lipglass and I'm super excited. This is a beautiful berry and I am excited to have this in my collection. This is nice on the lips and so far has not bled on me! I am looking forward to being able to wear this on the cloudier days and then also winter next year! (as I miss out this year) This is the shade Hot/ Cold, something I find really interesting is that this is the exact same as the America packaging, it literally just has stickers with Japanese writing and info slapped on the top. I kinda wanted to take off the sticker but didn't want to ruin the packaging!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is what Hot/ Cold looks like on me, Sorry the lighting isn't great but this was late at night with artificial lighting. I love how pigmented this is and how easy it is to apply! I am excited to wear this more and am very glad I picked this up. One thing to note is that this was a lot cheaper for me to buy in Japan than back home.<br />
<br />

<br />
Next up is Steam Heat, another beautiful red to add to my red lip addiction. This is a beautiful blue toned red. I think I will def be getting a lot of wear out of this shade because it is so vibrant and beautiful. I think this is a satin finish, it doesn't really tell me on the bottom like the English packaging does. It def feels like a finish as its lovely and creamy on the lips.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And of course here is the swatch on my lips. I def love this colour and I am so glad that I went and picked it up! I was again glad that this was cheaper than back home! Just looked on the M.A.C. AU site and its $40! Crazy!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now this is something totally new to me and something that I have so far only tried on the back of my hand in store. This is a product that helps get rid of the dead layer of skin cells that sit on top of your skin. I tried this in the store and it did kinda freak me out, but it totally got rid of every thing that was on the back of my hand and left it looking amazing! I am super excited to try this on my face, it does feel super weird though. I am gonna have to be brave for that part!</div>

Lastly is this travel size of face wipes that I bought to put this in my bag for who knows what might happen. These are AMAZING! I had opened these up on the train home because I was testing the liquid liners that I talked about above. Literally when I wipped this over my hand, me and my friend both went 'oooooh!' because it got rid of EVERYTHING in ONE SWIPE! WHHAAATTT?? I will def be picking up more of these before I leave so I can keep them on me, these will be amazing when I am flying home as I will have an 6-7 hour stop over! These were incredible! These did have a mildly strong scent but nothing offence so that is the main thing. These were also roughly 250 yen for 10 sheets.</div>

So I thought it would be a good idea to show what the makeup in my May favourites actually looked like on my face! Like I said in that post these are products that I used either daily or so often it was actually a bit crazy.<br />
<br />
So first off is a close up of the eye look!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi47Pj30vrrfU-3_xLI9_04DYJixQyGt2GL_K5_q3yuqqNOqyX_ns7IVMNabNlX-CbjcF87877WmmzD3OssW9sfLxyO9GdvG4qzzqWxpankObfUDE-YYtI3ORE7EkE6NgdE09YeoJZOdC6f/s1600/IMG_0904.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi47Pj30vrrfU-3_xLI9_04DYJixQyGt2GL_K5_q3yuqqNOqyX_ns7IVMNabNlX-CbjcF87877WmmzD3OssW9sfLxyO9GdvG4qzzqWxpankObfUDE-YYtI3ORE7EkE6NgdE09YeoJZOdC6f/s320/IMG_0904.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
So here is an up close (and kinda scary) picture of my eye look! I am not super confident with liner so that's why I haven't winged it out or something like that. The mascara that I am currently using is the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara and I'm really enjoying that! This is a really simple look and something that takes no time at all to do! I was running late the other day and my full face took me 10 mins! (and I still made it on time to class!)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So here is both eyes done. All that is going on here is the Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94 with Shiro Cosmetics pigment in Extermination (from the Fullmetal Alchemist Collection) over top. To blend the shadow a little I used a brush that had a bit of Naked from the Urban Decay palette. This just finished of the look and blended everything out nicely. Again its super simple! Just place the pigment all of the lid, add eyeliner and mascara and bam! You're done!<br />

<br />
Here is a full face shot, in this photo you can't really see the shadow but that is okay, you can see the over all appearance of the look and that is more what I was trying to achieve in this photo!<br />

<br />
In this look I only have eye shadow and brows on as it was late at night and just before going to bed so please don't judge my skin to harshly! All of the shadows I used were pigments that I bought off of the internet by some brands that I really enjoy! If you're in the market for some new pigments I def suggest giving these brands a look!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDmdOo7FXoDvbXsMwlQTh0v89_Q2Tr5Qewnbxd5uppTtEIkzov94uvA9NQ0hrjckBzeaSoLekRXpVtUe5cb7I-gOwWkjvxQIkJUDd6N9clVvZXAVVKRfN-fvmV6quP6n11SnkcNqcYOh6P/s1600/IMG_0891.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDmdOo7FXoDvbXsMwlQTh0v89_Q2Tr5Qewnbxd5uppTtEIkzov94uvA9NQ0hrjckBzeaSoLekRXpVtUe5cb7I-gOwWkjvxQIkJUDd6N9clVvZXAVVKRfN-fvmV6quP6n11SnkcNqcYOh6P/s320/IMG_0891.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
This is what I was working with before I put on mascara or anything else, all of the shadows here contain blue somewhere. It is kind of hard to see in this photo but there are three different colours used. The inner corner highlight, the main colour and then a darker colour in the outer corner. These are all colours that I have used of varying regularity due to their colour. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3cL8GOxm60Q916q4HOCb7pAf4ozoxIdf3v1VyeOKA7A2Ng2Q8xyFyDbJBlEVJkzH7BKNpVwpeSFKXnotPoq-udxw35qj_Jca_elw9Zgim4xWwKDFHfUFKWPmB7YsN9fP1YqAZ4LVv0xo6/s1600/IMG_0894.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3cL8GOxm60Q916q4HOCb7pAf4ozoxIdf3v1VyeOKA7A2Ng2Q8xyFyDbJBlEVJkzH7BKNpVwpeSFKXnotPoq-udxw35qj_Jca_elw9Zgim4xWwKDFHfUFKWPmB7YsN9fP1YqAZ4LVv0xo6/s320/IMG_0894.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Here is a better look at all the different colours on my eyes. It is easier to see in this photo the darker blue in the outer corner. This is a colour that I wear most likely the most regularly. Sadly this photo does not give this pigment the justice it deserves as it is a super pigmented and sparkly colour. It is one of my favourite colours! As you can see I am now wearing mascara and a little bit of eyeliner just to mildly finish the look. I was going to do more but was actually asked to go out with a friend so had to quickly finish and make myself presentable haha.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp6X2NWhVy7C29JAVNH4B1tq1LW4NLEUw6Zq61O9Akx_L9ujpho1tLZz_sa7-K1N8SqENrprI-ycbd0UIjBqZDCgnjkQMQBsJp45H-FVstGgkbg7BPTJkU8NMdHc8Xez4zir5MwwaODV_e/s1600/IMG_0896.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp6X2NWhVy7C29JAVNH4B1tq1LW4NLEUw6Zq61O9Akx_L9ujpho1tLZz_sa7-K1N8SqENrprI-ycbd0UIjBqZDCgnjkQMQBsJp45H-FVstGgkbg7BPTJkU8NMdHc8Xez4zir5MwwaODV_e/s320/IMG_0896.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
This is what it looked like on both eyes! Again I am only wearing the eye shadow and have product in my brows so please don't mind my super shinny skin! I love how this turned out so much! This went a lot better then I was expecting and I will def be wearing this out and about properly in the future!<br />
<br />
This is a super easy look to achieve. I only used three colours and they were Moon Prism Power (inner corner) and Aurora Borealis (outer conrer) and both of these are made by Shiro Cosmetics and the main colour in the middle is Sailor Saturn (Hotaru) by Victorian Disco Cosmetics.<br />
<br />
Both of these brands listed are located in America and ship internationally! I love these shades so much and if you think you would like to try them I suggest you do! Both Shiro Cosmetics and Victorian Disco cosmetics can be purchased through the Shiro Cosmetics <a href="http://shirocosmetics.com/" target="_blank">website</a>.<br />
<br />
Well, this is the end of this post! I hope you liked this look and let me know if you do something similar or something you think I should change!<br />

I didn't have to many favourites this month but there were a few products that def received a lot of love this month!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZQysqpGeQ6HDt1C-VB75hSw6Pe1A9DFhdnT-hb2Q_4T4Qp6_kfMtAhrt033hCIp4RI7DSnnC7E_K2d0a8XQc9afSx50CHyOCNIrT_3u5EFxbQSBVofNSmkb6xRLf1ABeYjDqgrKmlQDDZ/s1600/IMG_0897.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZQysqpGeQ6HDt1C-VB75hSw6Pe1A9DFhdnT-hb2Q_4T4Qp6_kfMtAhrt033hCIp4RI7DSnnC7E_K2d0a8XQc9afSx50CHyOCNIrT_3u5EFxbQSBVofNSmkb6xRLf1ABeYjDqgrKmlQDDZ/s320/IMG_0897.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
These are my favourites for the month! Not a huge amount of variety but these truly have been some staple items used throughout the month. The items from top to bottom and Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, M.A.C. Mineralized Foundation, Korress Anti-Ageing Primer, Shiro Cosmetics eye shadow pigments in Master Sword, Extermination and finally Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94.<br />
<br />
First off the Anastasia Brow Wiz is a product that I have already raved about in <a href="http://newbytobeauty.blogspot.jp/2015/05/anastasia-beverly-hills-brow-wiz-review.html" target="_blank">this review</a>. The reason I love this product is because it is so easy to use. It's also super easy to fix a mistake if you stuff up, which is a huge bonus as someone who is still developing a brow game. This is the shade Taupe and I find that this matches my brows well, it is most prob a little dark but with the rest of my face done it doesn't look out of place at all! I honestly use this every time I put makeup on!<br />
<br />
Next up is a product that I had gotten in the month of May, I was looking for a new foundation as I was a little sick of the ones I was using, a friend where loves M.A.C. and said I should try a foundation. I have always been interested and so far things have been good! This is my first time trying a powder foundation and I am super impressed! I will def be looking into more in the future and am glad that this is a part of my collection! I have only been wearing this since I got it!<br />
<br />
Next up is the Korress Anti-ageing primer, which I have just recently written <a href="http://newbytobeauty.blogspot.jp/2015/06/korres-anti-ageing-primer-review.html" target="_blank">ta-da</a>. I am finding that this has been really helping my makeup last throughout the day and I am so happy! This was a Sephora 100 point perk so that is why it is small, but don't worry this sample has been lasting me sooooo long!!<br />
<br />
Next are the pigments by Shiro Cosmetics, I don't think I have talked about these before, but I honestly love these shadows, they are such beautiful colours. I have usually been putting these over the Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94. by doing this it helps makes the pigments more noticeable and stronger as they can be a bit sheer. I have been wearing this for an everyday look and I feel it looks great and is super simple. Which means if I'm running late this saves me time and still looks like I'm pretty well put together!<br />
<br />
<br />
So this is my monthly favourites for the month of May! I has so much fun last month doing so many things and having a great time!<br />

<br />
I was really excited when this came as I had already bought a cheap primer that had broken me out and the other one I bought with me was running out. Once I saw this as a perk I knew I had to get it, I was a bit worried though about it breaking me out though. So glad to say that it doesn't!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEYPur8yI7z6KaIygsZQyARE3K-RN_0tJClcAoBGjgXFBA5O_TReAZzFVVq9MwJZSF8-0jvxs4Vj3gMNTJKCDCionMX2ymxjksLxddxA0mVoFcOvw9ATSKuo4YSRALG2OkNcchgyTZnZ5o/s1600/IMG_0884.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEYPur8yI7z6KaIygsZQyARE3K-RN_0tJClcAoBGjgXFBA5O_TReAZzFVVq9MwJZSF8-0jvxs4Vj3gMNTJKCDCionMX2ymxjksLxddxA0mVoFcOvw9ATSKuo4YSRALG2OkNcchgyTZnZ5o/s320/IMG_0884.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
On the back it has description of: Instantly smoothes wrinkles and provides an even skin surface, ensuring long-lasting make-up application.<br />
<br />
I didn't even really look at the back honestly, I was just more excited for the fact that I was trying a new primer haha. This product has a really nice consistency, its not thick and it isn't watery which I'm really thankful for. I am also enjoying this because it's hot in Japan at the moment so having a thinner primer is refreshing because it means I'm not pilling lots of make-up on my face. This product is an off white, but it doesn't affect your skin colour at all so don't be worried about that!<br />
<br />
The smell of this is a little interesting but after applying you can't smell it anymore so it's not a problem. Another bonus is that you don't need a lot of product, so this little sample has actually been lasting me for a fair while and I will def be sad when it finally runs out. This product def helps with making my make-up last longer throughout the day. Even with me sweating buckets sometimes my make-up still looks good by the end of the day!<br />
<br />
I don't have a lot of foundations with me to try this out with but what I have been using has worked extremely well together! I will def be trying to get this again in the future!<br />

<br />
Another cult product up for review today! This is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, and I use the shade taupe.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYZRuDgfT19NCmpe_BywVBNDsdigag7SUlqyTpvfKYv7yYBRah_YkukNLL4fLK1YjUqsqXjzkksbR3iedPS4KDO1AEcz_W7sQtNz4JZGmuzbe7nNqgNC_jkbluiCD8xMZl3EnC9cU0kwXp/s1600/IMG_0877.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYZRuDgfT19NCmpe_BywVBNDsdigag7SUlqyTpvfKYv7yYBRah_YkukNLL4fLK1YjUqsqXjzkksbR3iedPS4KDO1AEcz_W7sQtNz4JZGmuzbe7nNqgNC_jkbluiCD8xMZl3EnC9cU0kwXp/s320/IMG_0877.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Here is a shot of what the Brow Wiz, not gonna lie I did think it was gonna be a lot bigger when I got it. From videos I had seen online I did think that the packaging was more bulky, so I am glad to see that this is not he case as this makes it easier to travel with!<br />
<br />
One on end of the product is the a small brush, I don't use this very often because I don't really have unruly brows. I have used it a few times though, that's why it is looking a little bit dirty.<br />
<br />
On the other side is the actual product, when I first looked at the colour in store I didn't think that it would really suite me, but after putting it on I fell in love, it is a little darker then my natural colour, but when I have a full face of makeup on it doesn't look odd at all.<br />
<br />
This is a product that is super easy to work with and because of the fine point it makes it really easy to fill in your brows. I have also found that if you accidentally draw outside of the lines its super easy to just wipe the colour away and then blend your foundation back in.<br />
<br />
I have found that this product easily lasts all day and I love it for that, I remember thinking that this would be super expensive when I went to purchase this. But it only cost $21 USD, which is most likely a lot for American's but I thought that this was a pretty good price, seeing as everything is really expensive back home.<br />
<br />
There isn't a lot of product in here, there isn't even 1g of product. But so far I am finding that it is lasting a while. I will be able to update with how long this product lasts for with daily use once I have finished it up!<br />
<br />
PRICE:<br />

<br />
This will not be a glowing review of this product so if you are looking for that please move on to the next review. The two shades that I bought were Spice Cake (left) and Apple Crisp (right).<br />

<br />
To start this off is a picture of the packaging, it looks very similar to the Butter Gloss packaging which is nice, because its a simple packaging that makes it easy to find in a collection and also which brand the product belongs to. Another nice this is that the colour of the product is clearly displayed on the outside, so one doesn't have to look at the bottom for an idea at the shade. Having the black top also helps distinguish it from the original Butter Gloss line.<br />

<br />
The applicators for this product are a flat paddle, which I like, because this makes it easier for me to cover my bottom lip and also get a nice point for the top lip. I haven't had a lot of experience with this type of applicator, but I do like it so that is a plus! <br />

The pigmentation on these are incredible, and I believe this is why they were so hyped when they were first released. There is no denying that these are beautiful colours. This is the reason why I bought them, because I knew that I would get a lot of use out of these and would love them to bits.<br />
<br />
IF<br />
<br />
They didn't bleed HORRIBLY!!! This is why I think they died out pretty quickly. I have not tried both shades because I am honestly nervous about it. I wore Spice Cake and it started bleeding on me super quickly, which then got worse as it started to fade and then me trying to fix it. I needed this to last all day and it didn't. I ended up feeling incredibly conscious of the way that my lips looked. This is not something that I want when I wear a both colour like this! I might try the red in the near future, but it will be on a day where I do not intend to leave my room so I can watch and see how it preforms.<br />
<br />
Although I LOVE the original Butter Gloss formula I DO NOT like these at all. If you do not have any trouble with bleeding lipsticks then you might really enjoy this product, as they are comfortable on the lips, a drug store product and also super pigmented.<br />
<br />
If you do have problems with products bleeding, I wouldn't go near this product, which makes me sad as I was super excited to have these, and collect these in the future. I am glad to see though that the hype for these died pretty quickly so I feel like not a lot of people have gone out and purchased too many.<br />

As you can guess it's the Maybelline New York Fit Me Concealer in the shade 15 Fair. Ironically this isn't the lowest number in the range, but it is the lightest shade which can throw you off a little when buying your shade. Make sure you swatch the shades because you just never know!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzflQb_drYU0ULNf2Oe63AFV0fWaNLoluKMFh0-bXcH0aqxXzpsBPF4Z4RO7RImhUsgirA3wEppRHfB47aa4cmqtoZX2Pl4oDCIAFjoUQ-VzY4pr2Fip8oFLPReYpy86SZU4lEN9Jk6Wcc/s1600/IMG_0671.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzflQb_drYU0ULNf2Oe63AFV0fWaNLoluKMFh0-bXcH0aqxXzpsBPF4Z4RO7RImhUsgirA3wEppRHfB47aa4cmqtoZX2Pl4oDCIAFjoUQ-VzY4pr2Fip8oFLPReYpy86SZU4lEN9Jk6Wcc/s1600/IMG_0671.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I like the packaging for this concealer because its small making it easy to travel with and it also makes it easier to see how much product is actually left within. I also like how easy it is to read all of the information on the packaging making it easy to re-purchase the product in the future.<br />
<br />
This is a light concealer that gives medium to full coverage. This concealer is a lot thinner then other concealers that I have used which I am really thankful for, this also means that on hot days it doesn't feel like you have lots of makeup caked onto your face.<br />
<br />
A bonus to this product is that it is a drug store product making it easier to find, repurchase and even get discounts on it more regularly, which is always a nice bonus. I was very glad to see that when I was using this product it didn't break me out at all, as I do have problems with sensitive skin.<br />
<br />
Overall I would def get this product again, because its lightweight, medium to full coverage and easy to repurchase. If you haven't tried this before and are looking for something a bit cheaper and readily available, check this product out and see how it works for you!<br />

Recently I got my hands on some of his products! I was first in line for the (then at the time) limited edition shades in [714] and Queen Supreme and then again for the restock of the products a few weeks ago.<br />
<br />
I am now almost up-to-date with all of the shades that he has released, the only one that I am missing right now is Weirdo, which is currently out-of-stock.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTh5jvga7_j-0e8oy6MmqGVwMTcSFhcObRldg21KEOzrxW5UTLAEhoujNyKtUH9FOtmlPmodEveSDuYVFYpCF0eoQujAXYUGBan_xErg6q3IQJ8-05xHMSuFVioFrTJVdgzwW-q_zrjWOB/s1600/IMG_0876.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTh5jvga7_j-0e8oy6MmqGVwMTcSFhcObRldg21KEOzrxW5UTLAEhoujNyKtUH9FOtmlPmodEveSDuYVFYpCF0eoQujAXYUGBan_xErg6q3IQJ8-05xHMSuFVioFrTJVdgzwW-q_zrjWOB/s320/IMG_0876.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here is my image of the shades that I currently own. I LOVED that it came with this tissue paper with Jefree's logo all over it. I def plan to keep this and use it in my memory book or something!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The shades in the order they appear are: Unicorn Blood, Redrum, I'm Royalty, Prom Night, Celebrity Skin, Queen Supreme and [714].</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So far I have only put Unicorn Blood, Redrum and Queen Supreme. So far I am in love with how these feel on the lips, it honestly feels like there is nothing on my lips and they so far do not feel super drying on the lips.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have had a little trouble with the product completely setting on my lips, but I don't know if that is because some of my shades sat in one spot for over a month (due to me traveling around the world). I spent today playing with them in my hands to try and re-mix the product and will see if this fixes the problem.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have also noticed that the lighter shades are indeed more patchy, I think this is because the formula is thinner. Upon swatching these on the back of my hand there is a distinct different in thickness between the lighter and darker shades. This is what is most likely affecting the performance of these shades. I still love the lighter shades, but I can fully understand why people are getting annoyed by this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Another thing I noticed is that the product looked a lot bigger in photos from Instagram, but I'm not bothered by that anymore because the smaller size makes them easier to travel with, which is a plus.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I have worn all of the shades and have a more solid opinion on this product I will post swatches (hand and lip) and a review! So please look forward to that!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

It was pretty expensive but since using it I can understand why, I can also understand why everyone and their Mum owns this palette.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggzAlb1dSzlRD-mA4k0GhgFj9MNaPkbyNU8HxBaEGjWXqEv3QcreBn9kNYlsq275Vo0tCNpRw6f2hhURxlsGPnjRk51piDGQ3PcnQmJbMkJ47YJNijdOmf7idO3YMmW235lvjM7R-aLQDf/s1600/IMG_0870.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggzAlb1dSzlRD-mA4k0GhgFj9MNaPkbyNU8HxBaEGjWXqEv3QcreBn9kNYlsq275Vo0tCNpRw6f2hhURxlsGPnjRk51piDGQ3PcnQmJbMkJ47YJNijdOmf7idO3YMmW235lvjM7R-aLQDf/s1600/IMG_0870.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
So to start off this review is the traditional image of the product, most likely not necessary because everyone knows what this looks like, but here is a friendly reminder. I honestly don't know how I feel about the fact that it is a velvet case, but I don't hate it. The gold foil is really pretty and I do think that it adds to the 'fancyness' of the palette. This has a magnetic closure and I really like it. It feels pretty strong so it will travel well if stored nicely. I haven't yet covered my palette in a mess, which I'm really thankful for.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF7kNk5V_NZRW_aCUqNteFg-yJMRM_J2IQkYnfQHDF0g3jzF4y3dSoum2OVs76RAsIX9b678GjC0OHPBM9fCe_9i-snt8CBxoa1pARzIXjE068rhY7qZbnRJqOGl_Vp6heNu91Old30WBp/s1600/IMG_0871.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF7kNk5V_NZRW_aCUqNteFg-yJMRM_J2IQkYnfQHDF0g3jzF4y3dSoum2OVs76RAsIX9b678GjC0OHPBM9fCe_9i-snt8CBxoa1pARzIXjE068rhY7qZbnRJqOGl_Vp6heNu91Old30WBp/s1600/IMG_0871.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Again, traditional photo of what the palette looks like on the inside. There is a mirror (which I think is kinda small) and a reminder of what the palette is called. I think this is kinda cute and brings the front of the palette to this inside.<br />
<br />
The colours in this palette, I feel, are really good for beginners and also pros. Have used most of the colours in this palette and my favourite would def be the shimmer shades. I feel these blend when and transfer well from the palette to the eye. My favourite shadows would have to be Sidecar, Smog and Hustle. I will often use Sidecar or Smog all over the lid and then put Hustle in the corner. I feel this is a simple look that can be used often and changing the lipstick really changes up the look!<br />
<br />
I so far haven't found anything that I super dislike about this palette which makes me really happy! I don't really use the brush that comes with this palette and have since put the brush back into the palette so there isn't a gaping hole in the middle.<br />
<br />
While I was away this became available in Australia which I'm SUPER excited about so it means that I will be able to get the other palettes when I return home! I can't wait to collect the others and have the whole family in my collection.<br />

So to start things off again I'm going to post a review!<br />
<br />
A few weeks ago I ordered the Tangle Teezer from Sephora and had it shipped to me in Japan. I have heard so many good things about this brush that I really wanted to try it for myself. I generally only brush my hair when I first get out of the shower. This is because it is the most tanglely and also when my hair behaves the best.<br />
<br />
Here is a look at the Tangle Teezer that I purchased!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcqcHMMSwlXSBTQCiGYrOJ6JkBTfaTiFbVnevbt4HSl67OF_6kM0fpFiUlbe_16EggwR_gzyFxclsxV7D0VYmN5sJ1n56x5eMhvanTr8_E2VjFLPV4UXIUhyQsBnfHuFFeo_xO-E-dFC2l/s1600/IMG_0869.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcqcHMMSwlXSBTQCiGYrOJ6JkBTfaTiFbVnevbt4HSl67OF_6kM0fpFiUlbe_16EggwR_gzyFxclsxV7D0VYmN5sJ1n56x5eMhvanTr8_E2VjFLPV4UXIUhyQsBnfHuFFeo_xO-E-dFC2l/s1600/IMG_0869.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to go with the pink one as the other ones that were available weren't that interesting to me and didn't catch my attention. This is a really vibrant pink which I really like because it stands out and makes it easier to find on my mess of a desk.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is sort of on overview of the brush, I got the travel version and I'm kinda glad as I feel this helps protect the bristles against the war on my desk. It also makes it easier to store as I can keep it face down leaving the vibrant pink visible and easier to pick up again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The only downer that I can think of with this product is that the bristles can be EXTREMELY sharp on your head. The first time I used this I was a little alarmed at how sharp it was and instinctively didn't want to use it again because it did hurt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
BUT</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That being said this is really everything that everyone says it is, it just glides through your hair with no real problem and I'm honestly so surprised when ever I use it. I almost expect it to not work the next time I use this, but of course it always does.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have thought about getting another one for my handbag/ Uni bag but haven't as I usually don't brush my hair while I'm out and about (I just put it up instead). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Anywho! That's the end, I honestly think that if you can get your hands on this (at a reasonable price) that you should def give this a look in. Because it changes how I look after my hair after I shower because I can actually run my hands through it!</div>

I decided to pick up the Rimmel London Wonderfull Waterproof mascara because I was interested in the none waterproof formula. As many of you would be aware by now Rimmel has brought out a mascara with Argan oil in it. So far I haven't heard any raving reviews and there is kinda a reason why.<br />

Here is an image of the wand. First off I don't have a problem with how big the brush is, but I DO have a problem with the fact that there is a little nob on the end. This makes getting to the smaller inner lashes almost impossible without hitting your nose (which I did).<br />
<br />
I don't generally have a preference between plastic or 'normal' mascara wands. But for me, this brush reminds me of the Clump Crusher by Covergirl (again not a huge fan of that mascara). This brush doesn't clump lashes, which is something that I am very thankful for because I don't like clumpy lashes, so if that is something important to you, like for me then this mascara is great for that!<br />
<br />
The reason I don't like this mascara is simple. It just coats my lashes and does nothing else. I didn't test the claim that this mascara makes my lashes softer or not, because as soon as I discovered this gave my lashes zero volume or length I went back to a favourite the Estee Lauder Sumptuous mascara (a sample size as I'm not paying the $44AUD price tag) just so that I had more length and volume for the day.<br />
<br />
<br />
OVERALL:<br />
This is a good mascara if you only want to use it for casual or 'no makeup' days as it coats all of the lashes nicely and wont clump your lashes together. But if you bought this for the volumizing effect then you will be disappointed. I plan to now use this as a top coat mascara so that I still have that waterproof layer.<br />
<br />
<br />
RATING: 2/5<br />

Let me know what you think about this mascara and also what I should try next!<br />

I went to Priceline first and then bought some things online from Mecca because they were sold out in store. So here we go!<br />
<br />
First off I went to Priceline and bought a couple things, one for work and one for just general use!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
First I will talk about the product that I got for work!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in shade Fair #15. I got this because I chose to wear makeup everyday but didn't want to use my NARS one everyday purely because of the price. So I decided to pick this up because a friend uses it and says its pretty good. The amusing thing I found with this is that shade 10 is actually darker than 15, but oh well. This matches me pretty well and so I have so far had no problems with it.<br />
<br />
Price: $14.95 (<a href="https://www.priceline.com.au/index.php/cosmetics/face/concealer/fit-me-concealer-1.0-ea" target="_blank">Priceline</a>)<br />

<br />
This is the last item from my Priceline haul, the Seven Deadly Skins Melon Body Scrub by Anatomicals. I have used this a few times now and I love it! It has a lovely smell which isn't overpowering which I am glad about. When I do use it, I use it in the shower in place of soap (where safe) so that way I can actually use a scrub once a week. This is an inexpensive scrub that is def worth checking out if you're interested in finding a nice body scrub!<br />
<br />

<br />
As you can see I managed to get my hands on the ever popular Hourglass Lighting Blush Palatte, I also decided that I just had to try the Too Faced Melted lipsticks!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I decided that for my first Too Faced Melted lipstick, I would pick a colour that I would be able to wear all the time and a 90% chance that I would love it instantly. Which was exactly the case! I LOVE this shade! I am so glad that I got this and I will try this out at work tomorrow night!<br />

<br />
Here is a look on the inside of the palette! It is just as beautiful as everyone said, I am so glad that I picked it up. I am sad that it is limited edition so that not everyone can get it now or in the future. I really hope they do make this again! If you see this in store I suggest picking it up because you wont regret it! I have a full size in Diffused Heat and I love it, so honestly get it if you can!<br />

<br />
Here is a swatch of the blushes on the back of my hand, I swatched them in the same order that they appear in the palette, so they go Luminous Flush (a nice subtle and warm pink blush) Incandescent Electra (a peach colour) and Mood Exposure (a light mauve colour). Just like in the Ambient Lighting palette (which I do not own) the middle shade is limited to only the palettes, this palette is no different. I am sad that this is a limited edition colour because peach blushes are my favourite!<br />
<br />
I will list the price of this but not a link because it is limited edition.<br />
<br />
Price: $76<br />
<br />
<br />
I am so glad that I picked up these items and I am sooooo excited to put these to good use! I do not regret buying these at all! If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask, also let me know what you have picked up recently and if I should get anything else.<br />

It's the M.A.C. brush cleanser, now I know this is something that a lot of people would think of as unnecessary but I honestly love this product.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is what the product looks like, the packaging in nice and simple with the brand and the product name easily found on the product. On the back (which isn't shown) displays, again, the name of the product and then Caution is 5 different languages followed by To Use in those same languages. Although this is a pink product, this doesn't affect your brushes, meaning if you have white haired brushes they wont turn pink from use.<br />

The only main design flaw in this product would be the lid, which is easily changed. The problem is that is a just a pop up lid with a small whole to let the product out. Personally I have never used this method to get the product out. I just take off the top and place a cotton pad on the end and then just quickly flip the bottle to get product out. My sister does use the lip properly but it does look awkward when she is trying to get the product out. I do understand that a lot of people just go out and buy a spritzer top or just wait for another product to empty and just switch the lid over.<br />
<br />
<br />
REVIEW:<br />
I am currently starting my third bottle of the M.A.C. Brush Cleanser, if that shows how much I love this product! I use this everyday to spot clean my foundation/ concealer brush and my eye shadow brushes. This does a great job in getting 80% - 95% of the makeup from the brush. With my foundation brush it always leaves the brush feel exactly like it did after I washed it, sometimes it even feels 'cleaner'. This product is great at getting eye shadow out of brushes but does at times struggle, there have been times when washing my brushes that I have seen dark shadows rinse out of the brush. So if you use dark colours all the time this is something to be aware of.<br />
<br />
It is important to note that I DO NOT treat this product as a 'cleaner', I use this everyday to spot clean my brushes and then roughly once a month I will shampoo my brushes to give them the deep clean that they need (sometimes more regularly depends on how often I use the brushes). I would not suggest using this as a deep clean product, but I LOVE it as a spot cleaner.<br />

This is a M.A.C Lipstick in the shade Girl About Time, it is a Amplified finish and as you can tell it is a well loved lipstick as the bullet shape has changed. <br />

Here is a swatch on the back of my hand, to me this is just a perfect pink and goes with so many looks. This is the lipstick that I use when I'm not sure what I want to wear for the day. I know there are dupes out there of this lipstick, but to me this is still my favourite lipstick and I will always have this in my collection!<br />
<br />
Next up is a product that I have been using for a while and have changed how I have been using it.<br />

This would have to be one of my favourite mascaras and its the Accelerator Endless by Rimmel London (this tube has been well loved so some of the name has been rubbed off). This is a mascara that has fibres in it to make your lashes longer, and for me this is most definitely the case! I have used this on both my top lashes and my lower lashes, and I have found that I like it better on my lower lashes. This is because the wand coats all of my lower lashes really easily and gives them that extra length they need to match my top lashes. Also the size of this wand makes it easier to get closer to the lash line because the plastic bristles aren't overly long.</div>

The NARS Pro-Prime Smudge Proof Eye Shadow Base has become a staple in my makeup routine. I have super oily eye lids and I had heard that this helps keep eye shadow from creasing throughout the day. And it most certainly does that! With the help from my Inglot Gel Eyeliner in White #96 as the base, my eyeshadow can last up to 10 - 12 hours no problem. Which is a huge plus because some days I am honestly wearing my makeup that long, and even longer! This is a great product and I will never go without it!</div>
<br />
That last product is something that I rediscovered in my collection and I'm so happy I did!<br />

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Soft Colour Blush in 120 Pink Rose is my last favourite for the month. This is such a beautiful blush, I honestly can't believe I forgot about it! If you are looking for a blush to wear everyday without looking over done, this is the blush you are looking for! This gives the 'flushed' look that I think is just beautiful. I love to wear this on my more natural days or my more relaxed days where I don't want to look too done up. If you're looking for a soft pinky rose colour then this is the blush for you! Another great thing about this is how pigmented it is, granted it can be a little hard to swatch on the back of your hand BUT don't go heavy handed with the blush otherwise you'll just have WAY to much product on your brush. Honestly 1 - 2 taps on the pan is enough, its honestly that pigmented!<br />

Although this time I had a very limited budget so I didn't go as crazy as I could have gone! Now after the sale it has come to my attentions that most of the products that I bought were actually nail polishes, so if you like nail polish you will like this post!<br />
<br />
First off I will talk about all the nail polish that I bought, the
reason I bought so many is actually quite simple. Priceline had gotten
their hands on OPI nail polishes and were selling them cheap! So I
jumped on that because I know how much they usually are!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />These were all the polishes that I ended up getting, one thing I did notice is that different stores got different polishes. I went to two different stores and purchased the polishes. Although both had the Top and Base coat, the colours were different. Which I think is great! The colours that I got were Cajun Shrimp (on the far left) and Blue My Mind (second from the left), I was actually debated between two colours, but my friend said I had to get this one because of the pun, and I'm glad I did!<br />

This polish is by Face of Australia, and is from the Dark Side collection as clearly written on the front of the polish, there are a couple reasons I picked up this polish to add to my collection. The first is because I love darker colours and this is such a beautiful colour I couldn't walk past it. Another reason is price, this product was already on sale because this collection is a few months old. This collection was based around villains from many different popular movies. This polish is called Jafar, so the bad guy from one of my favourite movies Aladdin. While on holiday I put this on my toes (did a horrible job) and it came up a little more red then what you can see in the bottle. But I love it, I am interested to see how long this will last on my toes!<br />

While the sale was on I decided it would be a good time to pick up another one of these beauties. I have already purchased a few of these in the past and loved them! I have even suggested a friend get them and now she loves them too! This is the colour TOK-I-O, which I think will have a special place in my heart as its named after one of my favourite places! This is a beautiful purple colour which I think I will get a lot of use out of in spring and summer.<br />

I have never tried a blotting sheet before so I am a little nervous, but I am interested to see how these work!

This is one of the Models Prefered Eye Shadow palettes in Day to Night. I picked this up because a fellow beauty blogger has been raving about these! She has also compared them to the Naked Palette and loves them! (And owns all the Naked Palettes) <br />

<br />
Here is a loo inside the palette, and as someone who has personally never laid eyes on all 3 of the famous Naked Palette this instantly reminds me a lot of the original Naked palette. Which is part of the reason why I picked it up! I have always wanted to try those palettes and I am growing more and more fond of palettes as my collection grows and I am traveling more often. This palette offers a range of shades and finishes, there are 12 shadows and its 1/2 mattes and 1/2 shimmers. The pigmentation on these are incredible, nothing like what I was expecting! I am super excited to use this and see what looks I can come up with!<br />

And this month was no different. Though this month I didn't receive my email letting me know when I was getting my box, as it had already arrived before the emails were even sent out! Again this month didn't come with a box, but a card explaining that some of the products in this months box were just too big to fit inside. This doesn't bother me as I am never too fussed about the box! Sadly I have since thrown away all of the cards that came with this months box so I do not have those images or information. (I'm also on holiday and I was already bringing WAY to much as usual!) So I will just go straight into talking about what I got and my thoughts on those products!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
In this image is the Compeed Blister Medium, this was the bonus product in this months box. I personally don't have a huge issue with blisters, so for me this isn't really useful, BUT my sister suffers horribly from blisters and uses this brand and product regularly and I know from her that these are amazing! They look a bit funny but they do what they claim to do, so don't frown a pun this product if you got it in your box and suffer from blisters! <br />
<br />
The product to the right is the Palmer's Multi-Effect Perfecting Facial Oil, it claims to help reduce the appearance of fine lines. I don't know how I feel about this product, although the image doesn't show that the sample of this came in packaging similar to what you would expect perfume to be in. I am always nervous with trying new face products because my skin can be very fussy. So I don't think I will get any use out of this sadly.<br />
<br />
Lastly is the Lon Yitalite 24K Gold Eye Mask. I have never heard of this brand nor tried an eye mask so this will be interesting! I have been interested in eye masks, so I guess while I'm on holiday it would be the best time to try these!<br />
<br />

<br />
This was the item in the box that meant that all the products wouldn't fit in their usual blue box. Again I don't care about the box, but I do wish it was something better then fake tan. I don't fake tan and don't have any interest in it (I don't know how my profile implies that I want to be tan, is me saying I'm super pale an auto thing to giving me fake tan?) Either way I will never be using this, also the colour of the tin terrifies me. I have super pale skin and I feel like if I tried using this I would just look super fake and have the 'fake tan' look. <br />

These were the last few products in my box, firstly I will talk about the nail polish, as I'm the most angry with this product. I have used this brand in the past because it was cheap ($2 a bottle) BUT this STINKS LIKE VARNISH. Now some people might think 'It's nail polish of course it does', so to clarify I mean varnish someone would use to polish wood to make it water resistant. IT SMELLS SO HORRIBLE. I have not even opened this and have no interest in ever using this product. I also feel annoyed and ripped off BECAUSE its a $2 product that I could easily try, and is easily accessible in stores like Big W and Target. <br />
<br />
The last product is the only thing I was remotely excited about, this is because I have seen some YouTuber's talk about this and loved it! It has been called a dupe for the Naked palettes and so I was excited to try these! I have also heard so many good things from Coastal Scents in general so the excitement only grew! The only real downer about this is the size of the pans and also the fact that the names of these shadows isn't listed anywhere. But the colour selection is still good, because this could be considered a neutral palette which would be good for travel because of its size. <br />
<br />
<br />OVERALL REVIEW:<br />
<br />
Straight off the bat I have never been more disappointed with a box, and so I have actually already gone online and unsubscribed because of how upset I was. The teasers online got me really excited for this box so I thought this would be a great month! Last months box was pretty good so I had high hopes, which were utterly destroyed. <br />
<br />
If you received a different box please let me know! I'm still curious to find out what other people received! <br />

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">So... I didn't exactly plan on buying any new skin care items for many reasons, such as loads of sample, loads of back ups and I love most of the products I'm already using! BUT! When you're loving father and boyfriend pack up your vanity area to move back home, and your not there to dictate what stays or goes... You come home to find its all been packed up and shipped home! So luckily I had the foresight to bring my makeup bag back with me, but all of my skin care has been taken... So! This lead to some last minute skincare purchases so I can still have nice skin! Non of these items are high end and some I've never tried before! (Also my blog camera is at home so sorry for poor quality photos)</span></div>
<div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
These are the products I decided to pick up for multiple reasons, I'll talk about the repurchases and then move on to the new ones!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
First off the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes - Night Calming, are some of my favourite wipes, this is because they are super moist, gentle on the skin and smell great! These take off roughly 80-90% of my makeup which I'm SUPER thankful for! There are 25 wipes in this packet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Next is the Simple Kind to Skin Facial Toner, this was my old toner before moving onto the Alcohol Free one by Neutrogena. I repurchased this one purely because of its size. I won't be in Adelaide as often anymore so something of this size is perfect to stay with my boyfriend. The reason I'm not a huge fan of this one is because I don't feel like it is moisturising enough (can't really think of the right word) so I end up using more product to achieve the same effect. Otherwise this is a lovely product and has never given me any problems!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The last two items are new to me, one which is a cult favourite and the other by a brand I trust!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The Garnier Miceller Cleansing Water is a cult favourite in the beauty world so I thought this would be a great time to try it! I have yet to use it but I have high hopes!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Lastly is the Neutrogena Oil-Feee Moisture for Sensetive Skin. I've always been too scared to try drug store moisturisers because I have fussy skin, but desperate times call for desperate measures and so I decided to try this! I have only used it once but so far I like it! There isn't a strong fragrance which I like, and feels nice on my skin. This is defiantly thinner then my normal moisturiser, but I'm thinking that's a possitive because my skin isn't super oily at the point of writing this. Which isn't normally the case! So maybe this was a happy accident and will save me money in the future, just have to wait and see if it breaks me out! (But with all the stress I'm going through at the moment who knows where the pimples will come from)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
So here is my emergency purchases in a tight spot, I did bye some other things like cotton rounds and antiperspirant but yea, not as important!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

The first thing that I noticed about this product is that these are in the American packaging which I was really excited about because I had always liked the pictures that I had seen of it!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is a quick overall image of the colours that are currently available in Australia. At the time you could only get them in Target but since then they have been rolled out as a part of the display in all the different stores. This is something that I am thankful for because there are times when I'm really fussy about buying my products from and don't really like to be limited to one place! Again as you can see this is not the usual packaging that is seen in Australia. I am so excited to see this collection in Australia as I do remember it coming out in America and being super jealous that I couldn't get my hands on them because I loved the colour scheme.<br />
<br />

<br />
Here is a swatch of Berry Bomb. As you can see, these are not as bold as they appear in the bullet. For many this will be a relief and will also be a great way to try new and exciting colours! If you were buying this product expecting it to be a bold colour, think of these like the coloured lip balms that Maybelline also have in their range.<br />

As with all the other Baby Lips, the packaging generally follows the colour scheme of the product. Again making it easier to see in stores.</div>

A swatch of Pink Shock. This is the shade that is going to be my favourite because I love to wear pink lips. This being a more sheer shade means I will be able to wear this on minimal makeup days and also when I am just looking for a sheer wash of colour.<br />

<br />
And so for the last swatch. I am glad that these are as bright as they are in the bullet because I think that this is a much more wearable colour. This will be great in the warmer months as this will brighten up your look really quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
REVIEW:<br />
<br />
I love the Baby Lips range because generally they provide a nice texture on the lips and do keep them moisturized throughout the day. I don't feel this way with this range of the line. I think these are better to be viewed as a Lip Stain rather then a Lip Balm, because these didn't moisturize my lips like the originals have.<br />
<br />
But in thinking of these more of a stain then a balm, these are great because they don't go everywhere and leave a lovely stain on the lips when they start to rub off. I loved how these looked and that they made a more natural look feel more relaxed. These are great if you want some colour on your lips but hate the feeling of other lipsticks, glosses or stains. My favourite would defiantly have to be Pink Shock, but that is purely based on the colour.<br />
<br />
My one biggest con for this product is the packaging. I'm far to used not having to worry about how I closed the product, it was simply shut the lid and shove it in my bag. As you can see in some of the images above there is still product sticking out. This has not been done by me, but is how the product comes. So if you're in a rush, this wont be your go-to lip balm. One you have used the product more this wont be a problem, but at the start you will need to keep an eye on it to make sure you don't get product everywhere.<br />

I didn't really have a lot of favourites this month but these are the ones that I do have!<br />

<br />
This would have to be my all time favourite for the month and I don't think that I could live without this in my beauty bag anymore. I can totally understand why people are obsessed with their brows! This is a lovely product that I think is great for people who are beginning with brows. This is a product that is easy to remove if you make a small mistake (which I have done sooooo many times!). I am so glad I got this and I think it's totally worth the hype. The colour I have is in light/medium.<br />

<br />
This is the Estee Lauder Sumptuous Mascara in 01 Black. This is a deluxe sample size that they nearly always give these out with their gift with purchase. Normally I don't really like using high end mascaras because the drug store has loads of good ones. But I honestly love this mascara because of the length and volume this gives me. I have naturally long lashes and I love the length this gives me. It also stays really well, I have cried while wearing this and it didn't run down my face so I am thankful for that!<br />
<br />

<br />
This is another Estee Lauder product and this is the Double Wear Concealer in the shade 01 Light. Straight off the bat this is a perfect shade match for me. I have been using this product for years, but I have been really loving it for covering up the redness o my nose and chin. This is why I'm so thankful that this is a perfect colour match! This is a lovely concealer because its not super thick and blends beautifully with your foundation, whether you apply you concealer before or after foundation it doesn't affect this product!<br />

My last favourite for the month is an eye shadow palette! As you can see it is the Meet Matt(e) Nude palette by the Balm.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
If you have never seen inside this palette before here are the lovely shades included. My favourites are Matt Rosen, Matt Singh and Matt Lombardi. These shadows are great for a simple everyday look. I often wear Matt Singh on 3/4 with Matt Rosen in the corner for work. The colours in this palette are simple to work with and look great! I also have oily eye lids and with the right primer these will easily last all day and not loose pigmentation!!<br />

First off is a lipstick and a red one at that! Red is my all time fave shade and I think this would have to be my favourite packaging! Now this is a limited edition product so you will want to get on this fast if you really want this in your life, It's from the brand Etude House (an EXTREMELY popular brand) and is the XOXO Minnie Kissing Lips collection.<br />

First off a primer!! It looks a little confusing in this packaging and I promise it only gets more confusing :)<br />
<br />

This is the product outside of the box! I love this packaging! Although it's not travel friendly I think this is going to look so cute on my vanity!<br />
<br />

This is the inside of the golden egg. I LOVE the smell of this sooo much! It made my package smell soo nice! The purpose of this primer is to help with pores. Thankfully on the box there are directions in English, so I will have to make sure I don't throw it away. I am so excited to use this and see how it works. This is called the New Egg Pore Silky Smooth Balm by Tony Moly.<br />
<br />
PRICE: $11.99 US (<a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/271595860984?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649" target="_blank">eBay</a>) please note links provided are from the seller I purchased from.<br />

<br />
This is a face soap, thankfully the two different eggs are wrapped apart so it makes it easy to travel with if needed. I am interested to see how this is going to work! From what I could tell from the description that you use this like a normal soap... but only for your face!<br />
<br />
PRICE: $9.99 US (<a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/271249070783?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649" target="_blank">eBay</a>)<br />

Next are some more lip products! These are from Etude House and Tony Moly. The bunny looking product is by Tony Moly, one of my uni mates uses this all the time and so I thought I would give it a shot! The two Etude House products I wanted to try because I love the colours, granted I wont get much use out of the darker shade until next year, I'm still excited about this product!<br />

<br />
First off are some pictures of what the product looks like!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The general inside of the product.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I have been using this for a few months now just like I said at the start. I wanted to try this because I have heard a lot of good things about this product from good old YouTube. Normally I go for pressed powders, but I was in the mood for a change and so got the loose version. I do not regret this at all! So that is a good thing. I am tempted to get the pressed though, I will explain why below.<br />
<br />
The reason why I love this product so much is that it helps keep me matte during the day. I have really oily skin in the T-zone and so I need some help with keeping my makeup look good and not utterly horrible. I do think that this does help with that!<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is roughly what I would use to cover my face, this is most likely too much, so it shows you just how little you need. Now I most likely use a little too much powder, so people with normal/ dry skin would need a lot less than me. I find that this product does not affect my foundation, but even though it is a translucent powder, I do feel that it does help my foundation match my skin colour a bit more. My foundation is slightly too dark for me so this helps lighten it a tiny bit.</div>

<br />
The reason I have thought about getting the pressed powder is because of the image above. I LOVE how this feels and looks on my skin, the only problem is that the loose version isn't exactly very travel friendly. This happened after being in my bag from shopping, it took me roughly 20 minutes to be able to get the product back into the base of the packaging. So my only concern is that if you're doing a lot of traveling maybe think about getting the pressed version. I might be getting it as I plan to go overseas soon and don't really want to have to spend potentially an hour trying to get all the product back in the right spot.<br />
<br />
I have also re-applied this through the day and it didn't not disturb my makeup at all. It returned my makeup to what it looked like when I had first applied it in the morning. Which I was shocked and so glad for because I didn't really have time to touch up anything else.<br />
<br />
OVERALL THOUGHTS:<br />
I do seriously love this product, I use it everyday and when I don't use it as apart of my routine I do notice a difference in how my makeup looks. If you're in need of a nice face powder and looking for a high-end product or even just a change I think you should consider this product.<br />
<br />
RATING:<br />
9/10<br />
<br />
PRICE: $46 (<a href="http://mecca.com.au/nars/light-reflecting-loose-setting-powder/I-015225.html#start=1" target="_blank">MECCA</a>)<br />

This is just a heads-up post! Recently Mecca sent me an e-mail to me letting me know that this seasons Beauty Loop box was in-store! This means that I had already spent over $300 at Mecca to get into level 1.<br>
<br>
Now, I went in wondering if I would have to spend more money to get this box? Glad to report that nope! This comes as a part of the service, so if you're level 1 or above get on the box as it doesn't cost you anything!<br>
<br>
This is the Level 1 box, it is my understanding the different levels have different boxes, which I think is great!<br>

<br>
On the back shows the products which are in the box! One thing I love it it explains why Mecca loves the product, but also how to use it! Which I think is great, because honestly sometimes I don't know what I'm meant to do with the products I get.<br>

So here is whats in this seasons box, not gonna lie, little sad, but still cool to get this for free! The foundation sample looks good, but there was no choice in colour so ah well. I'm most excited for the perfume! I have ALWAYS wanted to try something from this brand and so now I can!!! :D<br>
<br>
Def get on this if you can, I mean its free and it gives you the chance to try new things!<br>

I was pleasantly surprised to see that there was even a sample of the They're Real Remover in there, another product I have wanted to try!<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br>
As you can see its a full size mascara, a small liner and a sachet of the remover!<br>
<br>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was glad to see there was a little stopper in the top of the liner, the lid is also a screw top which I was glad to see!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have used the They're Real Mascara and I haven't been hella excited nor super disappointed. I also wasn't using it 'correctly' so lets see this time! The They're Real Push-up Liner is only 0.36, while the full size is 1.4g. But thats ok, because this is a good size to see if you like or hate the product!</div>

Well this isn't it.<br />
<br />
The product that I will be talking about it the Garnier Pore Refining Toner, personally I have large visible pores that I would really like to go away. So I thought that this product would be the best for me!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
As you can see from the front of the packaging, there are a lot of things that this product claims to do. I honestly have no been testing this product long enough to find out if any of these claims are true. The reason why for this will be explained at the end of the post. But as you can see this product claims to purify, tone and tighten pores all at the same time! Which is why I bought this product.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is the back, the only problem I have is that there is simply too much information on here. This makes the writing really small and kind of hard to read. It also makes it sometimes difficult to find the information that you are looking for.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have nothing bad to say about the cap. If anything it is the best cap I have ever used because it is easy to open and close, and it would be hard to destroy. I like that this also keeps the smell inside.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now, down to the point why, even though I have barely used this product but yet I have such strong feelings on it already that I'm writing a post about it. It's simple really. This smells HORRIBLE once it gets near your face, not to mention that when I put it on my face, any sores BURN. And not just a slight tingle, if that was the case I would just ignore it and move on, but this actually feels like I am being burnt. Another big turn off is the fact this can NOT go anywhere NEAR YOUR EYES!!! IT HURTS!!!! The fumes coming off of this product if no joke, I put this on my forehead, eyes hurt, cheeks, eyes hurt and even my chin I can still feel a slight sting! Now I might sound like a wimp, but it seriously hurts, I try using a little amount, but it doesn't get rid of the burning sensation.<br />
<br />
The main reason that I think it might be this bad, is because Alcohol is the second main ingredient in this product. Normally I don't have a huge problem with using alcohol in my products. But this is just ridiculous! If this is a part of the problem I don't ever want to go near these types of products again!!<br />
<br />
I have never regretted getting a product as much as this, and I honestly don't really know what to do with it, I have barely used it and so I don't want to waste it. But I am dreading this part of my routine and that isn't really what I want.<br />
<br />
If you have any suggestions on how else I could use this product then please let me know! But otherwise look the other way when it comes to this product!!<br />
