Australis Go long longwear lipstick


"Glam" is a dark red cherry colour 


My lips were super dry as I swatched the Velourlips just before this.


Velourlips by Australis, review and swatches.









After the Matte swatches I put some lip butter on to add a little bit of gloss.



I really like these products the Tok-i-o is definitely a extreme colour better for photos or going out but i wouldn't wear it everyday. They take a while to apply to your lips and need a few layers for the colour to be even. The red shade lasted all day on my lips, better than any of my other red lipticks/stains so putting the balm over the top to add gloss makes it less drying for me. 

These Velourlips are only $6 in Australia at chemists and retail shops, There are only 5 shades at the moment but all are extremely different unlike some brands which stick to only a few pink shades. I will be buying the other shades soon.

Don't buy Nude by Nature.



I purchased their 'as seen on tv' set, it ended up costing me $200 I think for 30 or so products. As someone with acne and extremely pale skin I was not impressed the lightest shade was way to dark, has a orange undertone. 


The rest of the products were okay but ELF, designer brands and other cruelty free brands offer better products most cheaper as well. Please comment to share your opinion on Nude but for the fair skin or acne prone it just isn't good.

Savvy by DB makeup review.

If you live in Australia or want to purchase Savvy by DB products online through stockists, these are the products I love and recommend from them.

Baked eye shadow in a golden brown, lasts all day with a light shimmer and golden tint.  

Another baked eye shadow, in bright blue really good for adding some colour to smokey eyes.

Pressed powder in 01 light, actually not orange or pink on my almost porcelain white skin. I still have a bit left after using in everyday for over a year.


Such a great eye shadow I use the brown almost everyday and only just hit the pan after using it for almost two years, I think it was $4 (AUD).


Mini Sukin haul and review .

Absolutely love this, fixes chapped and cracked lips in a day! Buy it off their site or at priceline for $8.

I use this twice a week on Sunday and Wednesday nights, love it so much it smells nice and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. Only 15 minutes of your time to look great.

I estimate that this (100g) will last me 6 months, i use it twice a week and for $16 I feel it was worth it.

Love this shampoo fixes my oily roots and dry ends and makes my hair feel healthy and thicker, it works for anyone! my mum uses the same one and she has thick dry hair and it makes it more manageable and smooth. Last bottle lasted me 6 months of using it every second night.

This moisturiser is great I use it all over my neck and face at night, and my neck and everywhere but my t-zone in the morning to stop oily patches.

A great product for summer makes skin feel refreshed, clean and cool. During winter adds quick moisture when your face feels dried out.





Mattifying day cream from The Body shop review.



I purchased this product at the start of this year, used it every weekday morning and still only a few teaspoons missing! I didn't notice a huge difference but it does help out if you get shine or an oily t-zone especially at work or school in summer. 

I purchased it for $25 (AUD) I'd recommend this product to someone who ca afford to spend money on luxury face products but if you don't feel lie you would need it or want to pay that much, just buy an ELF mist and set which also keeps makeup from appearing oily. 

The body shop red lipstick review.






 This lipstick was $24 (AUD), it is highly pigmented and moisturizing to wear but did not set and smudged. They discontinued this lipstick and started "colour crush lipstick" with 24 colours, they are also $24 in my opinion not worth the money when they are not any better than ELF's lipstick which in Australia is $6.
