Current Favourite Skincare Products

One thing I ashamedly admit is I can be a little bit lazy when it comes to looking after my skin. Sometimes I forget to take off my makeup at the end of the day, or I forget to apply moisturiser, that sort of thing. I'm happy to say though, I am becoming better at getting into a good skincare routine. I like to keep my skincare products fairly simple, so I have gathered my favourite skin care products to share with you today.

I will start off with some body products. Lately I have been obsessed with products from the body shop. I've been using PiƱita Colada Body Sorbet and I love it so much. It scent is amazing, it smells like pineapple and coconut and my skin feels so soft and smooth after application. The packaging is great, its a 200ml tube, so plenty of product and a little goes a long way. There is no greasiness, it absorbs into your skin beautifully.


Another product from the body shop is their Shea Butter Body Moisturiser. This is a gorgeous smelling product that also is great at leaving your skin soft. This product comes in a pump bottle, which is great and I apply it straight after I've had a shower.

I have always been a body wash person when it comes to the shower, rather than using soap. Recently I purchased the Snow Fairy Body Conditioner from Lush, and I absolutely love it. I have always love the Snow Fairy scent, and This product is a must have if your are a fan of the scent too. I apply it to my skin while I'm in the shower, then rinse after a few minutes. The best part is my whole bathroom smells amazing after I have used it, as well as my skin feeling soft and smooth.


For removing my makeup, I swear by Garnier Miceller water. I have been using this for the longest time, and can't fault it. It removes all of my makeup without leaving my skin dry. This is something I find myself repurchasing time and time again.

I have always been a huge fan of sukin, and their charcoal facial scrub is definitely one of my all time favourite products. I have been using it for a while, and I love how it's so gentle on my skin, as well as leaving my skin soft and reducing the look of enlarged pores.

Another product from Sukin is the Facial Mist toner. I use this more or less to refresh my skin, or after I have taken off my makeup. I love how it soothes and tones my skin.


Let me know what some of your favourite skincare products are, I would love to know! Thank you for reading xx

Products I always repurchase

There are some products that I just can't change in my beauty routine. Don't get me wrong, I do love to try new products, but there is always that small element of fear that it won't work for me! So rather than wasting my money on something new, the products that I find myself repurchasing all the time are basically staples in my beauty routine. These range from makeup products to skin care products.

I love a great foundation and even better when I can get it for a reasonable price. My current favourit
e foundation is by Rimmel Match Perfection. This is honestly my holy grail foundation because it just works so well with my skin and gives me a nice even coverage. The best part is, it's regularly on sale somewhere so I always pick it up cheaper than regular price!

I am very fussy when it comes to mascara and have tried a few recently that haven't really worked for me. One that I find myself constantly going back to is the Essence Lash Princess mascara. This is definitely one of the better ones I have used. It really gives me definition and length. The price tag is even better coming in at the 5-6 dollar mark. Very good value for money.

When it comes to powder, I can't go past the cult favourite, Australis Fresh and Flawless pressed powder. To me this will be one that I always have in  my collection because I just love the finish it gives my skin.



I also love to fake tan, even in the cooler months and my all time favourite product to use is Bondi Sands. I use the Ultra Dark shade and it's great. Using the mitt, the coverage is fairly even and lasts for ages. The great thing about this product is that most supermarkets stock it now and regularly have sales, so I always manage to pick it up cheaper!

Christmas time is my favorite time of the year, and one brand who's Christmas range I always look forward to is Lush! I must admit I am a Lush addict at the best of time, but put a little bit of Snow fairy in front of me and I turn into a full on obsessive nut! Snow Fairy is my all time favorite lush scent, and every year at Christmas time I stock up.

Let me know what items you always repurchase, I would love to know!

My Quick and Easy Self Tanning Routine

Hi all, welcome back to my blog I hope you are all well!

In today's post I will be sharing with you my very simple self tanning routine. With the weather starting to warm up here in Australia, which is exciting and with that means lots of bronzed up bodies!

So here is my easy to follow self tanning routine along with a brief description of the products I use!

My products of choice when it comes to self tanning is always Bondi Sands. I have been using their products for some time now and highly recommend the brand. The products are easy to apply and look very even and natural.

So to begin with, I use the self tan eraser to remove any remaining tan that is on my skin. This is an awesome product to get rid of those spots of tan that won't come off with regular exfoliating. All you need to do is apply this to the areas that you tan removed from, leave on for about five minutes and then rinse off! So easy and such a great product to have in your regular tanning routine.


The next step is to exfoliate the skin, with some exfoliating gloves and your favourite body wash or soap. I am currently using Zoella's Jelly and Gelato Shower shake. It smells amazing while really softening your skin. I do this step to make my skin smooth and ready for application of the tannng products.

After I have patted myself dry, I stand in front of my mirror to apply my tan. The one I use is the Bondi Sands Ultra Dark, and love it! I do this because it's easy to see the parts of my skin that I miss and to ensure that I have a nice, even application. To apply the tan, I always use a tanning mitt. I use the Bondi Sands one, and this really helps to give you an even application while preventing you from getting "Tan Hands".


I will usually wait about 10-15 minutes before getting dressed, to allow the tan to dry. My usual time for applying tan is at night, and I will then rinse of the guide colour in the morning when I get up. This gives the tan a good amount of time to fully develop.

As I said earlier in my post,

Sukin Pore Refining Facial Scrub Review

In todays post I just want to talk about one of my favourite skincare brands, Sukin. I have been using their products for a while now and absolutely love them. I love this brand because they are made from natural products as well as being Vegan and very affordable.
Sukin have products that suit most skin types, and my favourite product would have to be the Oil Balancing Pore refining facial scrub.


The ingredients in this product include jojoba beads, bamboo charcoal and moringa extract, which work to exfoliate the skin clearing pores of impurities.
Other vitamins include rooibus tea, willowherb and coconut oil which purify and balance the complexion.

With antioxidants like Bilberry extract, white tea, aloe vera, chamomile and cucumber, they all work to calm and soothe your skin. It really is so gentle on your skin.

I use this because it's for oily to combination skin, and after use it doesn't leave your face feeling dry or tight. It also reduces your pores, and leaves your skin with a healthy balanced glow.

The product does have a little bit of texture, which is expected from a scrub but it's very gentle. It's ok to use everyday of you need to, but 2-3 times a week works really well.

This is one product I keep reaching for and repurchasing. Definitely a favourite of mine!

Thank you for reading, stay tuned for regular po

Product Empties #2

Hello lovelies I hope you are all having a wonderful week. In today's blog I will be sharing with you my current empties from the last few months. As i have said previously, I don't really change up my routine too much but there comes a time when I run out of my favourite products. So without further ado, here are my current product empties.


Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation

This is my current favourite foundation, and I have loved this for quite some time. The finish it gives my skin is amazing and the longevity is equally as good. I won't go into too much detail with this one, but it's safe to say I will continue to repurchase it.


Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil

I love this product. It is the perfect eyebrow pencil for me, and lasts the whole day once applied. I love how it also comes with a little brush which is quite handy.

Models Prefer Setting Spray

I have had this product for a while now, and I have forgotten how good it is. I have been using other setting sprays, then went back to this one and fell back in love with it. I have finally finished the bottle, so will definitely be purchasing it again.


Batiste Dry Shampoo

I never used to be a fan of dry shampoo, but these days when time is not on my side, dry shampoo has become a necessity. This one is in the scent Eden and it's a beautiful floral scent. I am a big fan of batiste products and always make sure I have a couple on hand.


Essence False Lashies Mascara

Being a little on the fussy side when it comes to mascara, I am a big fan of Essence mascaras. They are so great for the price, and this product in particular really gives your lashes that false lash effect without being too chunky.

Green Tea Makeup wipes

This is the last product I will share for today. I am a big fan of these makeup wipes from Kmart. They come to a total of two dollars and they do the trick perfectly. These are always a staple for me, and I love how they remove makeup without leaving my skin oily or in bad condition. They come in a pack of twenty and are well worth the two bucks in my opinion.

So that was all of my empties for now. I hope you enjoyed this post, stay tuned for more content soon xx

My very Simple Brow Routine

I am one of those people that simply cannot go outside without my brows done. I kind of feel a little bare when I don't do them, so I have a very simple brow routine that works for everyday looks as well as a more glam look.

So to start off with, I shape my brows. All I use for this part is a hair removal creme. I don't have time to get my eyebrows waxed regularly, so I find this the most simple and effective way to remove any unwanted hair. Most of the time I do this when I'm in the shower and he brand I use is Nair and I use the sensitive skin one.

To fill in my eyebrows and give them a nice full look, I use my favourite eyebrow pencil from Rimmel. This is a great simple pencil that is super easy to use. It's also quick to apply and stays in place all day. I have been using this for ages and it has been working really well for me.

The last product that I use is from Essence and it's their Brow Gel. I love this products, and have been using it for quite sometime now. It just applies on with a small brush and keeps your brows in place all day. As with all of the Essence range, it is also on the lower part of the price scale.



So that is my very simple brow routine. I like to keep it quick and easy as time is not my friend most of the time.

Hope you enjoyed this post, stay tuned for more content coming soon xx

My Current Favourite Lip Products

For today's post, I want to talk about what I am loving in the way of lip products. My main type of lip product is a nice creme lipstick or a lipgloss but there are few matte ones that I am loving at the moment.

The first few products that I am loving at the moment are my metallic ones. I have three, two from BYS Cosmetics and one form Gerard cosmetics.

The one from GC is great. It's a lovely gold colour and lasts for ages on the lips. It has a matte finish but still looks metallic. It really is a lovely product and didn't find it drying at all.


The next two products are from BYS Cosmetics and are also metallic finish ones. I have two colours and both are equally as pretty. As for the quality, I find they are just as good as the more expensive ones from GC. The pigmentation is fantastic and staying power is just as good. They are a fraction of the price of the GC so if you want to try something metallic, I highly recommend trying these ones.


I am a huge fan of the Brand Essence. I love their range of products as well as them being so cheap. My favourites are the lip colours and I do have a few. The ones in particular that I want to talk about are the long matte lasting ones. I have two colours, a pink and a nude. These are so great to carry with you in your hand bag so you can touch up during the day. They really aren't drying at all and have really good longevity. Definitely worth trying if you haven't already!


Hope you enjoyed this post, stay tuned for more content xx

August Goals and to do list

I am suffering from the dreaded writers block at the moment but I managed to find something that I would like to share with you. It's a to do list that I have compiled for the month of August, just a few things that I would like to accomplish!
I feel like this year is going by at a rapid rate and each week is getting faster and faster! It's crazy how time flies as you get older!
Anyway, to see what things are on my to do list, keep on reading!


Be more organised!

When I started this blog, I planned on getting out three post a week. Lately this hasn't happened due to just being busy as well as lacking motivation! It's just so grey and cold here at the moment that all I want to do is keep warm with a good book or movie! So I decided that I would get my butt into gear and write myself a schedule for my blog. This includes my three blog posts a week as well as daily posts on Instagram!

Start To Save More

It's getting to that time of year where I have a lot of birthdays to buy presents for as well as getting prepared for Christmas. I also have a few Holidays coming up within the next few months so it would be nice to have some extra cash for that. This means no more spontaneous purchases of things that I don't really need. As a beauty blogger, this is exceptionally hard but I do plan on sticking to this goal!

Exercise More

As we will soon be going into the warmer months here in Australia, there will be no need for the extra layers which means no hiding your body haha! I also suffer anxiety so exercising really helps to control this. With the weather being so cold, it's very un motivating, so haven't really been doing a lot.

Spring Clean

Something that I really hate to do as well as seeming to be a never ending chore is housework! It seems as soon as my house is looking perfect, the kids will come home and change that! I aim to do a big spring clean this month, getting rid of old clothes, furniture and bits and pieces that I have accumulated. I love the end result when it comes to having a good clean out, it's just the starting process that I don't like!

Use Up Old Makeup

As I touched on earlier, I do have a habit of purchasing very unnecessary items. It's funny because I never used to be one for having a lot of makeup or beauty products. But recently I developed an obsession which has led me to this beauty blog! So as part of my goals for this month, I will be using up any foundations, mascaras, or any other beauty related product before I need to purchase anything. I actually have quite a few products, so I will be able to stick to my goal of not purchasing anything this month!

So there is my goals or to do list, let me know what goals and things you would like to accomplish this month!

Thank you for reading xx

Time to Prime

I never used to be one that would prime my skin before applying my makeup. It never really occurred to me that using a primer not only helps your makeup stay on longer, but also helps the makeup apply better. So for today's post, I would like to share with you some of my favourite primer products.


One I bought because I had heard good things about is the Elf mineral infused Primer. This is a lovely primer and has a very smooth kind of texture. It almost has a silicone feel about it. The only thing I found with this product is my skin will become a little oily, but I use a matte finish foundation and that fixes the problem. I purchased this product from Kmart Australia and it was around thirteen dollars, so quite inexpensive compared to some other products.



Another great primer is from one of my favourite brands, and that is the BYS Cosmetics primer spray. This is such a convenient product, and really gives your skin a perfect base  for makeup application. It also dries really quickly.



The next product is one that I don't use as often is by Rimmel, and it's the stay matte primer. This is great for controlling shine, and you can wear it on it's own or before you apply your makeup. It also able to be applied on top of your makeup too, giving you a complete matte finish. It is very lightweight and also minimises the appearance of pores.


The last product is another Rimmel product and relatively new to my collection. It's the Insta Fix and go Primer and setting spray. I don't mind this product at all, and find it really handy to have. It's oil free and dries super quick making it a great product for makeup application.

I hope you enjoyed re




ading this post, let me know what primers you love!

My "No Makeup" makeup look

There are some days when I just cannot be bothered with a full face of makeup, but I still want to apply something to my face to make myself look a little bit more alive!

This is a look that I use daily, especially when mornings can be very busy trying to get the kids ready for school!

So I will share the products I use for those days when I don't do a full face of makeup.

To start off with my base. I still use a foundation, but I apply a light layer and mix it with my favourite face oil. This gives me a gorgeous glow to my skin as well as applying a light coverage.



Onto my brows, and there isn't a day that goes by when I don't use product on my eyebrows. SO for this step I use my favourite eyebrow pencil from Rimmel. This product is super easy to use and applies well giving my brows a lovely full look.


For my eyes, I usually apply a mascara and a light shadow. The eyeshadow will be as close to my skin colour as possible with a slight shimmer.

I don't usually put too much on my cheeks, I just apply a little bronzer. My favourite one at the moment is by Covergirl. It is quite pigmented and a little goes a long way.


Onto my lips, I like to use a gloss and that will be a nude colour. It just keeps the look natural and without making it look like I have full face of makeup on.

So that's basically it for my "No makeup" makeup look. I hope you enjoyed this post.

Stay tuned for more content coming soon xx

$3 Dollar Skincare Review

In one of my many recent trips to my local Kmart store, I was stalking their beauty section to see if I could find anything that appealed to me because let's face it, as a Beauty Enthusiast we can never have enough beauty products!
I finally came across some products that I hadn't seen before. The brand is called 'Beauty Care Co', and all of their products were around the three dollar mark.
This definitely piqued my interest, as I am definitely one for inexpensive beauty products so I grabbed a couple so I could try them.
The products I grabbed are Rosehip & Oil Body & Hair oil, Rosehip & Jojoba oil Facial Cleanser and Rosehip & Jojoba face oil.

I have to say for the price, these products aren't too bad.

I'll start off with the facial cleanser. This product was probably my least favourite out of the three. It is quite an oily texture and doesn't really foam up too much. I found it cleansed my face well, but I would have to use it a few times before my face felt clean. But for three dollars, it's not a bad product at all.

The next product is the body & hair oil. This product os ok too, I mainly use it on my body rather than my hair. It leaves your skin quite soft as well as giving it a bit of a sheen. It has a slight scent to it too, but nothing too overpowering.

The last product that I want to talk about is the face oil. I really like this product! I was quite surprised to be honest, as it was such an inexpensive product I expected it to be quite oily on my skin. But this is not the case at all! I found it applies and blends in well and even minimises my pores a little. It also gave my skin a glowy finish, which I was quite impressed with.

As I said, these products are only three dollars and are not too bad. There are other products in the range as well as other scents. It's worth checking out of you haven't already.

I hope you enjoyed this post, stay tuned for more content regularly! xx

My Winter Night Time Routine 2017

In today's post, I thought I would share with you my current night time routine for winter. I must admit, I can be quite slack in the skincare  routine department, but I try to set aside a time each night to take care of my skin.
So without further ado, here is my current night time skincare routine!

I like to light a candle. Sometimes it's a scented one, sometimes it's not. It just depends on how I am

feeling! I just like the ambiance a candle creates, and in these cooler months it just adds a little bit of warmth to any room!

Another thing I like to do is put on are string lights. I really do have an unhealthy obsession with string lights, I have a lot! I think they look so pretty and just give your room a great feel.

To take off my makeup, I have been using a micellar water from Essano Beauty and have been loving it. It works just as well as the Garnier Micellar water, and is around the same price. I just use a cotton pad and dab some on it and wipe away!
I actually use this even if I don't have any makeup on. I find it just wipes away any impurities that may have built up during the day.

To cleanse my face, I like to use a charcoal infused facial scrub from Sukin. I find this works well if you have oily skin. It leaves your skin so soft and free of any oils. Even if you have more dryer skin this would be great too.


Onto moisturising, I'm not big on a cream product, I prefer to use an oil. At the moment I am using something I picked up in Kmart which was only three dollars! It's a rosehip oil and I find it works so good with my skin. It leaves my pores smaller and my skin so glowy and smooth! For the small amount that it is, it's definitely worth adding to your collection.

Once I have done all this, I like to get into my pyjamas and have some me time. I usually do this by getting in my cosy bed with my iPad, catch up on some of my favourite bloggers and youtube channels. I also like to read, which I usually will find a good book through one of the apps on my iPad.

Before I go to sleep, I spray my bed with the Quiet Night body mist from The body Shop. This product is designed to help you have a better nights sleep. Even though it says body spray, it works just as well by spraying on your bad. It smells amazing and really does work!

One last thing, it's so important to have a good nights sleep. I know this is sometimes easier said than done, but it really does help your skin rejuvenate itself.

I hope you enjoyed this post, stay tuned for more content soon xx

Beauty Wish List #1

Hi all, I hope you are all having a wonderful Tuesday. In today's post, I want to share with you some products that are on my beauty wish list. These are some current products that I a looking forward to trying, and would love to add them to my ever growing makeup collection!


Firstly, a brand that I have been seeing a lot on Instagram and that is The Ordinary. Not only is the packaging of these products gorgeous, they sound amazing! And the price of them is great, they are reasonably priced for something that looks so good. I really wag to try the silicon primer and Moroccan Argan Oil, so will definitely have to make a purchase sometime in the near future.


Onto another brand that I have heard a lot about and that is Jouer Cosmetics. Their products look so lovely and I am particularly interested in trying the lip toppers. I also like the look of their highlighters, because I love a good highlighter!

Colourpop cosmetics is another brand I see a lot of people raving about. I love the look of their lip glosses, they look so pretty and are relatively inexpensive. I will definitely make a purchase from them sometime in the near future.

The last thing that is on my list, is the gorgeous looking Naked Heat Palette. I love the look of this palette, and really loving all the warm tones in it. I do have a lot of warm toned  palettes already, but I feel I need to have this in my collection too!

I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what beauty products are on your wish list!

What's in My Makeup bag!

Today I want to share with you current go to makeup products that I basically can't leave the house without. AKA - what's in my makeup bag!

Most of these products are old faves, but there are a few that I have only just started using. So keep on reading to find out "What's in my Makeup Bag".

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation

This is my favourite foundation. I love how it fills my pores and gives me a flawless look. I apply it with my trust Real Techniques makeup sponge, and find it lasts the whole day.


Australis Fresh and Flawless pressed powder

Again, this is one of my all time favourite products. You guys would all know how goo this product is and if you haven't tried it yet then where have you been? It truly is amazing, and easily available online, and in drugstores.


Essence Volume Stylist Mascara

I love this mascara. It add length and definition as well as lasting for ages! It definitely lasts the full 18 hours that it claims, so it great if you need to last for a long time. Best of all, Essence products are so inexpensive!


Covergirl Tru Blend Blush

This is such an amazing blush. I love how pigmented it is and how gorgeous it looks on the skin. It has little to no sheen, and is very easy to apply.


Revlon Lip Ultra HD Lip Laquer

For my lips during the cooler months, I prefer a lipgloss rather than liquid lipstick or anything matte. I absolutely love this one by Revlon. It is the perfect glossy nude shade.


Berries Eyeshadow Palette By BYS

I have a blog post on this amazing palette already, so if you haven't read it, go check it out! It is a great dupe for the ABH modern Renaissance Palette, and a fraction of the cost. It's my go to palette that I use almost everyday at the moment.


So that was all about what's in my makeup bag. Hope you enjoyed reading!

Disappointing Beauty Products #1

I don't normally regret purchasing anything but there is the odd occasion where I do buy something and it's not quite as good as it looked either advertised, in store or online. I don't mind so much if it was a store bought product that was more on the inexpensive side, but when it is something more high end and online, then it kind of annoys me! It can be quite difficult to return something you have bought online, by the time you have sent it back and paid for postage to do so, sometimes it's just worth keeping the product!

Firstly, and I hate to say this, but I regret getting the KKW x Kylie lip liquid. I am a sucker for pretty packaging, and when I saw this it was love at first sight!


When I saw this collection, I was really excited. The lippies looked so pretty, and the packaging was just too cute to resist! When it finally arrived, I couldn't wait to test them out!
The first thing I noticed was how sheer they were. You need to apply at least two coats to have coverage on your lips.

I was also disappointed in the longevity of the products. They really don't last that long at all, and I find myself reapplying right after I have had something to eat or drink. I think for the price you pay for them, I would expect a little bit more from the product.

The final thing I was disappointed with is the colours. They don't seem to have much variation between them, and they are more peach toned than I thought. I thought they were a bit more nude than what they are.

Overall, I will use this product but only because they are on the expensive side and I don't want them to just sit and not be used. But it's safe to say I was quite disappointed with these lippies, especially after all the hype they generated!

Do you have a product that you were disappointed with? Let me know in the comments.

Winter Beauty Tips



In today's post, I want to talk about how I change my beauty routine a little for the cooler months. Being that it is now winter here in Australia, the balance of my skin has definitely changed. It's a lot dryer than it usually is, and also my hair is suffering the effects of these cooler months! So read on if you would like to know my winter beauty tips!



  • For my moisturiser, I have been using an oil. I use the Physicians Formula Argan oil which is so good. It can also be used as a primer and skin brightener. I use this both in the morning and at night and my skin looks and feels great.
  • Another tip I have only just found out myself is don't have scalding hot showers or baths! I am really bad at this, I almost have the water as high as it can go! When the water is too hot, it will begin to jeopardise the skin's lupid layer that holds in moisture. To prevent this from happening, reduce the heat of the water or take shorter showers. Also don't forget to moisturise after your shower worn a rich creamy product.
  • It's not just your skin that suffers during the cooler months, your hair can also suffer! Heaters can take to moisture out of your hair, causing it to frizz or look dull and lifeless. Using a conditioning mask once a week can really improve your hairs quality, and also a good heat protector before blow drying or straightening really makes a difference!
  • Drink plenty of water! This is pretty simple, water helps to replenish the moisture in your skin. And best of all, water costs next to nothing and has no calories so you can drink to your hearts content!
  • My last little tip is for your lips. My lips have been very dry during these cooler months so I have been avoiding any matte lip products. I have been using a lipgloss or moisturising lipstick instead. I also have a few lip balms that I carry around in my hand bag. It also pays to pop some on at night in these to help retain moisture in your lips.
I hope these tip were helpful, and if you have any tips you would like to share leave a comment, I would love to know!

Where I buy my Makeup!

Hi all, I hope you're all having a wonderful day!

For today's post, I wanted to share with you a few of my favourite online beauty stores, where I purchase my makeup from. The items I purchase from these stores, aren't available in Australian drug stores or department stores. These are my three favourite store to buy from, so keep on reading to find out more!


The first one I absolutely love is www.discountbeautyboutique.com.au. This store is an official stockist of Morphe products, Milani, Gerard Cosmetics and also stock a whole range of other amazing brands. I have purchased a few products from here and am so impressed with how fast shipping is! Also, if you spend over $100, you receive free shipping. Such great value for money. A lot of the stock does sell out quite quickly, but the website is regularly updated so you don't miss out. I highly recommend checking this site out if you haven't already.

The next website I want to share is www.adorebeauty.com.au. I love this site, and there are so many gorgeous products to choose from. There is a lot of great skincare products such as Dermalogica, as well as homewares and gifts and of course makeup! I love the range of products that can be purchased from here. When you make a purchase, you also receive a few free samples as well, which is always a lovely little surprise. Definitely check them out if you haven't already!

My other favourite store is www.crystalminx.com.au. I have purchased from this site several times and have been super impressed with delivery times! They stock a range of awesome products, I bought my Too Faced sweet peach palette, and a few other things. They also stock Kylie Cosmetics, Anastasia Beverley Hills and many more awesome brands.


I hope you enjoyed this post. As I said, definitely check these sites out if you haven't already. They are all amazing in their own way and you are sure to find something that will appeal to you.

If you have an online store or website that you love, let me know!

Current Skincare Routine

As most of you would know, in order to create a flawless complexion, it's really important to have a really good skincare routine. It has taken a while to work out what works for and what doesn't. Everyone is different! I change the products I use every so often, but I do keep it quite simple.
I have a day and a night time routine, which I will share for you so keep on reading if you want to know what it is!


Day Time Routine

  • As I said earlier, I do keep my routine quite simple. I will usually wipe my face with the Garnier Micellar Water with a cotton pad, to remove any dirt or impurities that may have built up over night. 
  • To moisturise my face, again is very simple. I have been using the Physicians Formula Argan Oil serum which is a 4 in 1 product. I have a review in this product (which you can check out here). This is basically all I use and I will then apply my makeup for the day.

I use this both morning and night, and have noticed a huge difference in how bright my skin is.


Night Time Routine.

One of my favourite Facial Scrubs
  • At night time, I usually start by removing my makeup. I have been using The Body Shops Aloe Cream cleanser, and it's so gentle on my skin. 
  • I will then use the Oil Balancing Charcoal Cleanser from Sukin. I love how this leaves my skin so smooth as well as removing oil and impurities from my face.
  • For a Toner, I have been using The Aloe toner from The Body Shop. It's just like the cream cleanser, very gentle on my skin.
  • To moisturise, I will use the Physicians Formula Argan oil
Some of the Gorgeous Aloe range from The Body Shop

That's pretty much all I do for my skin. I find it has been working really well for me. If I use too many products, my skin can break out, so I try to keep it as simple as I can.

I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what products you like to use for your skincare routine.
