Put A Ring On It • Lovisa Haul

Hello chummies! 

Picked up a few goodies at a Sale in Lovisa this week! I always forget to wear earrings and rings, which I hate because they often add a really lovely touch to an outfit and bring it all together. I'm hoping these beauties will encourage me to wear them more and not forget!!


The two pictures show two pretty different styles but I really love both of them and know I have different outfits that would suit them all. 
I especially loved the cross earrings, so much that I got them in black and silver!
My favourite purchase is definitely the gold branch ring as I've been looking for one that's affordable for SO LONG, and this was just $2.00!

Let me know which of the two styles you prefer!
Thanks for reading

Eye Make-up Haul!


I am officially THEE WORST beauty blogger ever. I am so sorry. I will really try to post more <3
Anyway!!! I made some v. special beauty purchases a few weeks ago & so here are some lil reviews :)

 
♥ Urban Decay Naked 2 Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner 
Urban Decay Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero & Bourbon 

Some seriously great eyeliners here. Would recommend them ALL, especially the liquid eyeliner. Very easy to use, which is great for beginners like me :) The pencils are also great, have a texture similar to a gel eyeliner which I like, as I find it much easier to apply when it's in a pencil. Both colours are gorgeous, I love Bourbon as its a gorgeous brown with shimmer and would suit both a day or night look.


Benefit They're Real Mascara 

Finally!!! I've wanted this mascara for soo long, and it definitely lived up to my high expectations. Two coats and it looks like I'm wearing fake eyelashes. Quite pricey, (obviously - it's Benefit) but does a brilliant job.


 ♥ Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette 

This palette has some seriously beautiful colours in it. Some of my favourites are Bootycall, Chopper, Snakebite and Ydk. A really good mix of mattes, shimmers and glitters, and colours that I think suit my brown eyes very well. Also, the brush is amazing!! I usually hate brushes that come in a palette but I use this one so much! Very happy that I chose this palette out of the three.

Thankyou for reading!

Winter Fashion Haul

Winter has officially arrived in Australia, so to celebrate, I've put together a winter fashion haul!

COTTON ON 
Just a simple black hoodie. Very casual but essential for any wardrobe, I think. It's got those cute little thumb holes too!!

A white wrap around scarf. Warm AND pretty! I'm practically collecting these.

Just some basic burgundy trackies, they're very casual but not so casual you look like you're wearing PJs.

I looove this. It's loose and comfy and kinda reminds me of Tyler Oakley! Will get a lot of wear out of this I just know it!! 

This coat is soooo gorgeous and comfy and warm! You can wear it on top of almost anything and I love it.

FACTORIE
Hahahahah.. what can I say... they we're too cute not to buy.

COUNTRY ROAD
Thought this was just a very nice long sleeved tee you could really layer up! I'd like to wear it with black jeans, a coat, a scarf and boots!

 RUBI SHOES
In love with these <3 They are kinda wintery because of the thick strap and can be dressed up or down.

Thanks for reading!!

Mini LUSH Haul

I had a lovely visit to Lush yesterday, I definitely had to limit myself... everything in there is so tempting! I want it all! Anywho, I thought I'd give you a little look at what I did buy!


Melting Marshmallow Moment Bath Melt - $8.50
This has got to be my absolute favourite Lush product ever. It smells so lovely and sweet, and makes your skin feel just incredible. I especially recommend this to people who are new to Lush as it's a very good quality product and if you like sweet smells, you'll love it.

Rose Queen Bath Ballistic - $4.95
I haven't tried this out just yet but I'm looking forward to it! It's quite a strong scent of rose but I'm hoping it will be a little weaker once I actually use it. I love that there are little bits of rose petals inside, so cute!

Dream Steam Steam Tabs - $2.50 each
 These. Are. Amazing. Basically all you do is fill a bowl with boiling water, drop one in, wait for it to melt in, then bring your face over the top (just above the water) and cover you and the bowl with a towel. The steam helps open and clear out your pores and it's very relaxing, too! Another one I'd definitely recommend.

What are your favourite products from Lush at the moment??

Shopping Addict.

Guess what!?!? I went shopping. Again.



Notebook - Target
Pen - Kikki K
Mmm.. It's that time of the year again: new stationary!

Daisy Socks - Princess Highway
Absolutely fell in love with these, aren't they just adorable?

Leather wallet - Mimco
I was in desperate need of a new wallet, I had grown out of my $10 hot pink one, to say the least. With that in mind, I decided to buy one that I knew I wouldn't be 'growing out of' anytime soon. I think this one from Mimco is super classy and just flat out gorgeous!

 Black Studded Sneakers - Target
These are so awesome, and cheap too; only $19! I love buying sneakers from Target, they are always a great bargain and quite comfy, too.

Owl Pencil Cases - Typo
School pencil cases don't get any cuter than this! It did take me ages to finally decide on these two, Typo always have such pretty things.

 Waterproof Mascara - Max Factor
 Super Lustrous Lipstick 'Berry Couture' - Revlon
Super Lustrous Lipstick 'Plum Velour' - Revlon

Lip Butter 'Juicy Papaya' - Revlon

Last but not least, I bought these gems. It came to my attention that I needed a waterproof mascara after watching The Book Thief at the cinema and ending up almost looking like a panda (tears galore. incredible movie though). These lipsticks are all very pretty and in some of my favourite colours!


Thanks for reading! Let me know if you want any reviews on these products.

Shopping!

I've done quite a bit of shopping over the past week... I think I might be addicted.



Gimme Brow - Benefit
The lady at the Benefit counter applied this to my eyebrows and I was so happy with how it looked! My eyebrows are very difficult, they always look too full/large when I try to fill them in with a light brown eye shadow, so I was very surprised that this looked good. It's kind of like a gel, and you brush it through your eyebrows. You can build it up a lot and but it's not very harsh so I like it :)

Little Mix 'Jade' Press-on Nails
I thought these would be a bit of fun for a night out, I'm not a big fan of fake nails and these just started to come off after about two days which was good for me. Each of the other girls have their own design of Press-on Nails, I'd love to try Perrie's - they are like a cosmic sort of design.

Color Riche Le Smoky - L'Oreal
I got this in 204 - Brown Fusion and absolutely love it. It's just beginning to get hot here in Australia, and I prefer not to wear too much make-up, so a natural looking eyeliner is perfect! The pencil comes with a smudger too, although I never really end up using them anyway.

Baby Lips Glow - Maybelline
This was only $2 so I couldn't help myself. I bought it in 'Mixed Berry' which isn't very strong, just kind of enhances your natural lip colour. Keeps my lips nice and soft, I think I'll be buying more in the Baby Lips range.

Sugar Crush Body Scrub - Soap & Glory
I've been wanting to buy something from the Soap & Glory range for a verrry long time after hearing so many bloggers rave about it. The scrub smells very fresh and citrus-y (I am fab at describing smells...not). I am yet to try it but I can't wait!

Creamy Candy Bubble Bar - Lush
Since visiting Lush for the first time a couple of weeks ago, I have kind of fallen in love. This bubble bar just smells scrumptious - it contains vanilla, almond oil and cocoa butter. This will be my first time trying a bubble bar from Lush, but basically you just crumble it underneath running water and it creates lots of lovely smelling bubbles! You can also break this one in half to get two uses out of it.

Melting Marshmallow Moment Bath Melt - Lush
This is also my first time trying a Bath Melt from Lush, the lovely lady who served me told me that you simply drop it in the bath and let it melt. It's meant to give you lovely soft skin. This one smells like marshmallow (obviously) plus a little bit of citrus and vanilla. I literally could smell this all day - it's sooo lovely.

Bubblegum Lip Scrub - Lush
This little tub was quite overpriced, unlike most things in Lush - $9.95. Although I really couldn't help but buy it... I'm a sucker for anything mini, plus it smells totally delish. It's mostly sugar, which you rub on your lips, then lick off and finish with a lip balm (I've been using my Baby Lips one). This is literally so addictive, it tastes like fairy floss (or candy floss, for you Americans) but doesn't seem to make any difference to my lips. Worth $9.95? I guess so, but I probably wouldn't buy it again.

Hope everyone's had a lovely week so far, let me know if you want any reviews - I'd be more than happy to do them!

Pre-Christmas Splurge

This week I've managed to use up all my money on a few too many treats. Here's what I got!



 Luxury Lush Pudding - Lush - $6.75

This is my very first Lush purchase ever! I stepped inside the shop and got very excited as I've heard Zoella rave about it sooo much. I didn't have too much money to spend so I only got this (amazing) bath bomb, which was actually a really good price. It smells incredible... kind of gingery and a bit of vanilla... I cant wait to try it!


 Face Masks - Priceline - $3.99 each

Oh, don't blame me, I know these do absolutely nothing... but they're fun nonetheless! The blue mask is 'anti-stress' and the brown one is 'deep cleansing'. 


Mango Body Butter - The Body Shop - $9.95

Anyone who knows me will know I am in love with The Body Shop. Unfortunately it's insanely overpriced. These body butters are available in a large tub, or a small one like this. I bought it at the start of the week and it's almost finished! I love it so much, and definitely recommend it. The mango scent was my favourite, as well as pink grapefruit. It's fab for an all over moisturizer, but not so much on your hands as it can be quite slippery.


Rimmel Lasting Finish in Candy - Priceline - $6.95
Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer - Priceline - $14.95
Maybelline Hyper Glossy liquid liner - Priceline - $6.95

After seeing how gorgeous a pale pink lipstick looked on Tanya Burr, I assumed it would look that lovely on everyone. After getting home and trying it on, I was a little stunned as it looked a bit... different on me. It took a little bit of getting used to but I don't mind it too much! I guess I would prefer it without as much shimmer. 
Everyone in the beauty world has been raving about the Wake Me Up concealer and foundation, and I can't help but jump onto the bandwagon. I've inherited dark under-eye circles which I am very insecure about, and I've never found a product that completely conceals them. I would be lying if I said that this concealer does the trick, but it's definitely the closest I've been! This, along with my Maybelline Cover Stick Concealer, is pretty good! 
Purchasing this liquid eyeliner was actually a mistake! I forgot to put it down after looking at it and handed it to the shopkeeper with all of my other stuff without noticing. Oh well, I'm actually really glad that happened because I've wanted a liquid eyeliner for a while and I've just been too scared. I'm pretty happy just using a pencil, but I'm gonna test out this one now that I have it!

 Blue lace scrunchie - Valleygirl - $4.95

Couldn't resist buying this. It's adorable, and I'll be able to wear it with my school uniform so my hair will look a little less boring!

I hope you all had a wonderful week :) Let me know if you want reviews for any of these products! Have a wonderful Christmas, and if you don't celebrate Christmas, enjoy your week anyway!
