Australian Beauty Haul

Hey guys!

It's been a while since our last post, and we decided that we needed a new post on this blog, stat!

So today, as you know from the title of this post, we have a HAUL!! It's nothing huge but enough for a post so lets get started. ;)





Obviously this is non beauty related, but I thought I would just add these candles in for good measure. These where only one dollar each, Bargain!!


A makeup bag from a brand named "Modella". It has a nautical colour scheme, with navy blue and white stripes and red cherries, very cute! Anyone familiar with the brand?


 

Maybelline Baby Lips pink glow in the colour baby pink. I have the darker colour too and honestly these are just AMAZING! The price and the quality. This was just under $3.

Essence products. 

Essence 'Forget it' 3 in 1 concealer. This was $4.50

Essence 'lash & Brow' gel mascara. This was $3.95

Essence gel eyeliner brush. I can't remember how much this cost, probably around $4.


Now these are amazing, no joke! They are from the Australian makeup brand 'Kit'. These are lip balms which have a tint to them and smell like fresh mint. I picked up the 'Peachy tint sheen' and 'Berry tint sheen' and they sell for $15 a pop!



So I hope you enjoyed this little haul! Please comment down below if you enjoyed this post and what else you want to see on this blog.

REVLON Super Lustrous Lipstick Set REVIEW/SWATCH


Hey babes!

My first review and swatch! Lets get this baby going! :)

So in Australia, the Christmas season is coming into full swing regarding shopping and all that jazz, and what I love is that during this season so many stores start to sell gift sets and these are at such a bargain price compared to the original priced items you buy singularly.

So I recently went out and bought a REVLON Super Lustrous Lipstick Set for $29.95. This is an AMAZING price due to the fact that each separate lipstick costs $21.95!


The gift set came with three lipsticks, Rum Raisin, Teak Rose and Plumalicious, which are all 4.2g. The set also gave a cute compact mirror ^_^
The swatches on the back of the box are quite deceiving because the colours do not look like this at all! ahaha
Plumalicious, Teak Rose and Rum Raisin.
Swatches of the the lipsticks.
Rum Raisin.
Teak Rose.

Plumalicious.
The lipsticks are all very opaque, and have a creamy texture to them which makes them smooth and easy to apply. Having said that, these specific shades may not suit everyone. These are quite 'vampy', but the lighting makes them out to be lighter than they are. They are definitely something i would wear during the winter months, but during summer i would opt for lighter shades or clear balms. I have not tried the other colours in the Super Lustrous Lipstick series, but I would be expecting similar textures and 'opaqueness'.

So overall, I personally love the colours, the texture, the general feel of the lipsticks but they are definitely, like I said, a winter makeup item.
