Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm + FOTD + Uggies :)


Yesterday I exchanged a Clarins moisturizer because, after using for 4 weeks (hoping it would get better), it broke me out horribly, but because the moisturizer was $78 and my regular Clarins moisturizer was only $45 I had a few extra dollars to spend. So I purchased this lip balm :) It's less sheer than what I usually go for, but I actually don't mind it. I won't be repurchasing because it's not ultra moisturizing like my regular $10 lip gloss, and it's too dark for me; However, I do reccomend this as it is a beautiful colour! Even though it isn't "solid" like most lip balms, it does dry less shiney than a gloss :) But still has a subtle sheen which is really nice! So if you're not ready for lipstick but don't like have sticky glossy lips, then this might be for you :) It's approximately $26  - I'm shocking with remembering the prices! haha
The above picture was me trying to be all arty haha I was taking it as though I was reading the back sorta thing -Here's what the packaging says about this Lip Balm:

"Fresh, Luminous lip balm in fruit-inspired colours with a sweet fruity aroma and taste. Deeply replenishes lips with soothing moisture for lasting comfort."

Love the scent, taste and colour but like I said before, it's not moisturizing enough for me - but my lips are SUPER dry

Below is my face of the day :) I'm having difficulties with my camera, buttt I was trying to show you the glow on my cheeks, but it didn't show :( ANyways I'm using Chi Chi blush in Burning Up and Revlon Bare It All in 245 Peachy Tease which gives me a really nice glow :) I'll try to get better pictures!!! Still sorting out the settings.....

Mitchdowd Boxers are the BEST! from Myers :D have had these ones since Year Nine, so about 5 years!!!
And each winter I get myself one or two pairs of Cotton On Ugg Boots :) for only $24.95!!! They;re horrible quality and get smelly and dirty and break apart in about a month or two, but like for under $25 and they're way comfy....

Update: Nape Piercing, New Top, Clarins, EOTD


Hey!!
Okay so I promise that next month Iam going to be posting weekly. Probably like 2-3times per week!! I have a massive list of posts that I need to write. Reviews, hauls, etc. And they'll all be done by the end of this month!! Pinky swear :D
Anyways my excuse for the lack of posts is because Ive been working heaps because the girls at my work are at uni and cos its the end of the year, they all have exams!!! I mean this week is a 7day week for me!!! like 45+ hours!! Good news is, is that Il have tones of $$ to spend on hauls :)


I bought this top from Bardot this week. It was like $69 or $79.
It is almost impossible to get on!! because it has a zip up the back, but it stops like 5cm from the bottom!!! But its way cute :)
I bought this cute gift set from Clarins. Fingers crossed it will help my gigantic pores. And if it does, Ill give you all a review!! There's no point about writing about products that dont work ay...
Anyways, it was $52. It comes with a full size Hydra Matte moisturizer which is worth $52 by itself!! So the other 2 items are practically free!!! The item on the left is the pore minimizer itself, and to the right is the "Pure and Radiant" mask.
Heres just a pic of my eye makeup today. Sorry about the bad quality, I find it impossible to actually get good photos?? Ive tried ike everything!! Like going outside, to changing the brightness, different angles. Ughhhh. BUt the eyeshadow is wayyyyy more pigmented! However the picture does show my lack of blending skills :P
Also, Some bloggers wanted to check out my nape piercing, So here ya go :)

It scares the shit outta people when they see it!! because I look so innocent and sweet then I have like some weirdo bar sticking through my neck lol The boys at work are like obsessed with touching it, and so I think its like resurfacing... But Nape piercings aren't designed to last forever, only a few months, a year or two at best. Ive had mine 6months, and counting!! Im going to get it repierced if it does grow out :)

Do you like piercings? Or not a fan?

Whats your fav? And do you have any?
