Travel Essentials

Hi everyone,

Today I am going to talk to you about what I take on holiday with me.



Last weekend I went to Parramatta with my family so that we could see my dad's favourite football team play at their home ground (my dad's favourite team is the Eels). We stayed at the Novotel, just in case you wanted to know.

I thought I'd use this minibreak as a reason to show you what I take with me when I fly somewhere.

First up, shower items:

Clinique Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser



The Hotel's Body Wash


After Shower items:

Clinique Clarifying Lotion


Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion +


Makeup:

Nude by Nature Natural Mineral Cover and brush


Napoleon Perdis Ultimate Contour Palette
&
Clinique High Impact Mascara


Maybelline Baby Lips in Smoothing Cherry
&
Maybelline Colour Whisper in Pink Possibilities


Brushes:

Napoleon Perdis Reflective Contour Brush 20b (pictured above)
&
An unlabeled eye shadow brush (pictured above)

I hope you enjoyed finding out what I like to take with me when I go on holiday. What do you like to take with you when you go on holiday or vacation?

Bye!

Napoleon Perdis Lipgloss Review

Hi everyone,

Today I'm going to review the Napoleon Perdis Merci lipgloss called Kate. I am a bit nervous about this post as I have never reviewed a makeup product before.



First up, I'd just like to point out that this is the only one I have as I gave the other four in the pack to my friends as Christmas presents.

Swatches:

By the way, the bumps you can see are little bits of shimmer in it.

Colour
I really like this lipgloss because it is a natural colour (to prove it, I went to school and didn't get caught by the teachers at all). It is a really pretty pink colour and I think it is great for everyday wear. It has tiny little bits of shimmer in it which I really like. The applicator is a brush which I think is great and it feels nice when applying.

Packaging
I think the packaging is really cool. The tube itself has swirl shaping, which I think makes the product stand out from the rest. For some reason it has a picture of a bug on the top of the lid which confuses me a little.

Does it work?
Yes. I think it works REALLY well and I would recommend this colour to anyone who doesn't want to have an overly bold lip.

I hope you found this useful, this is my first review on something, so let me know what you think of it down in the comments!

January Favourites

Hi everyone,

Today I am going to tell you what I have liked to use over the past month, so lets get straight into it!

I have really been liking the Clinique Moisture Surge extended thirst relief cream. It works really well for sunburns if you don't want it to peel (mine peeled anyway, stupid skin) or just as your everyday moisturiser. A little bit goes a really long way, so it is very good value for money. I didn't actually pay for this, it is a sample I got from a salesperson while shopping. I don't know how big the full size is, but I will be buying it!



I have also really been liking the Biore Moisture Lotion for the same reasons as the Clinique moisturiser. It nourishes my skin, helps make sunburns go away and, unlike the Clinique one, it also has SPF do it will stop my face from getting sunburned.


I wore perfume a bit more this month, because its nice to smell nice sometimes. The ones I have been wearing are Katy Perry Killer Queen, Katy Perry Meow and YSL Paris. They are all light scents and I love them all!


My favourite candle this month has been my Yankee Candle in Vanilla Cupcake. I really love this candle because t smells exactly like vanilla cupcakes. I can even smell the icing! I have nothing bad to say about this candle.

They are all the things I have been liking throughout January (and, of course, I will continue to like them). I am excited to find new things to like in the coming months of the year.
