I’ve been excitedly waiting for Rimmel Apocalips since hearing about them on international beauty blogs, and they’re just entering Australian stores now. They’re essentially very pigmented lip glosses, which combine bold colour with high shine. They come in gloss-like tubes housing a doe foot applicator with a dent in the middle. There are 8 shades available in Australia, ranging …
I’ve been all over the indie polishes, but I’m still pretty new to the world of indie make up. Femme Fatale Cosmetics is pretty famous for being Australia’s indie distributor of choice and for its own indie polish line, but what always grabs me are their powder cosmetics. The little round images make me drool so hard! Best of all, you …
Almost a year ago, I posted about my everyday makeup routine. Since then, I’ve gotten ferncier, and here’s what my everyday look involves now: FACE Skin79 BB Cream – I’ve been slowly churning through a 4-piece mixed sample pack. This one’s supposedly whitening and improves wrinkles, but I don’t really care – it applies nicely without primer with just fingers, …
I love gel eyeliner’s longevity, user-friendliness and colour payoff, so naturally I was very excited when I was given the change to try out a limited edition gel eyeliner from Mary Kay.

Fig is a brownish pink, which on me is very much a my-lips-but-better colour. Rhubarb is a pinkish red that’s really flattering. I think it may be …
Finally, a DIY post! 🙂 I really got into the bold eyeliner look in summer, and while it’d be great to have eyeliner in all the colours, I have way too many eye-safe pigments sitting around unused already. So I’ve been turning them into eyeliner by using them wet, and the results are amazing! Applying eyeshadow wet (also called “foiling”) …
At a recent blogger event, I won all 18 shades of Jane Iredale’s new formula PureGloss lip gloss. At first I was scared – I’m a long-lasting lip colour girl who checks her lips once every 3 hours, maybe. Lip gloss is notoriously short-lived, and I could see myself slowly eating through tubes of the stuff with my terrible nervous …
I love falsies, but learning how to apply them is a bit tricky! As well as the tutorial I posted earlier on how I apply my lashes, here are some extra tips from makeup artist Allie Clark, who designed the Glam by Manicare range and is a professional lash ninja. – Make sure you trim your lashes! 80% of your …
