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....

FOTD + OOTD + New Shorts and a Top

This was actually yesterday's makeup and outfit, but I got lazy and cbf posting it! (: sorry for my slack-ness!

It was 40degrees (celcius!) in Adelaide AUS today, and so my nose is like shiney shiney shiney! But My cheeks and lips are supposed to be as shiney as they're pictured! Just my nose is meant to be matte haha
So please excuse that! I couldn't be bothered applying powder, cos pretty much when I get home from school I take off my makeup, so all of it was about to come off right after I took these pictures!
 Rimmel Lasting Finish L/Foundation
Rimmel Renew & Lift P/Powder

Maybelline Blush in Precious Pink
Sportsgirl Get Cheeky Cheek and Eye Shimmer Blush

Inglot e/s Trio in #21
MAC e/s in Phloof!
Face of Australia Liquid Liner in Black
Rimmel Soft Kohl Liner in 071 PureWhite
ModelCo Kohl Liner in Black
Covergirl LashBlast Waterproof Mascara in Black

Obviously, 40+ degree weather called for short shorts and a singlet! The shorts are Insight (I think??) they're like blue, Ive had them for atleast 3 years!!! They're my favourite, I have no intention of throwing them out, no matter how dated they get! and a plain dark grey Supre singlet :) Exciting stuff!
  
I have like a huge haul, but I cbf uploading all the pictures into one blog, it might get a bit tedious for you guys. So Ima just like add in one or two items into the next few posts that I do :)

Supre Denim Shorts, $40-50. I love the rips in them! Theyre like the shortie shorts version of ripped jeans! The pockets cober the skin under the rips, but Im thinking of removing the pockets so you can see my skin LOL nah Ill leave them the way they are (:
 Cotton On Tee, $24.95. I usually don't like Cotton On because of the sizing is weird, usually the tops are too big, but even when they do fit, I'll like wash them once and it'll go spaz..
This tee doesn't fit very well lol but the cut out at the back is just too cute!

Studded Heels + Lauren Conrad: Sweet Little Lies

I'm having a night in tonight because I started school today, a week later than all the other students, so the teachers have piled all this homework on me! ugh.

Good news is, I bought some to die for heels today! They're from Betts, and they fit so well! Usually I have issues with heels without straps cos when I go out on the town my feet sweat (ewww) and so it's hard to get the shoes from slipping off! I haven't tested these out yet, but they're nice and snug, and like the heel of the shoe, sorta like folds over the heel of your..umm..heel.. So descriptive!



I also purchased the second book of Lauren Conrads "L.A. Candy" trilogy! I didn't really like the first one, but it's just so funny how all the people/actors(??) on The Hills, are like "interpreted" into the characters in her novels hahahaha According to Lauren there's no connection, but whatever, read the books and watch The Hills, and you'll understand where I'm coming from!
She either did it on purpose, or she lacks imagination. But it's totally normal for Authors to involve real life characteristics of people into their stories!


I purchased these 2 notebooks from Cotton On for only $9.95 each! My fvaourite is the zebra print one :) And I'm currently using it for English woop woop!
I think I'ma go back tomorrow and buy another one, it's like this french magazine black and white typed theme notebook! Really cute!


I really wanted to get these 2 pairs of Bardot jeans, but I spent my $$$ on... Something? I'm not sure? My money just gooooessss!!! But they were $139.95 each, and they fit perfectly!! I seriously would've been so psyched if I could have afforded them both!!

I have like a haul to post aswell, it's mainly clothes, and like accessories, and random stuff :) Hopefully I'll be having more of these "in" nights so I can actually post something useful! (:

Im so self conscious when people look at my hair though - But hopefully Ill pull through! I just keep thinking about nice,shiney, healthy hair when it's all grown out! Yay!

Mini Haul

Yesterday I went job hunting (with not much success, silly recession!) and I bought a few goodies :) So I bought (Clockwise from left)

Cotton on Singlet
I love this! I actually bought it in a large so that I could wear it with a dress, and accessorize with either cute leggings or a nude cardi and vintage jewellery. My fav part is the peachy lace detail.

SHOP magazine
Im totally addicted to magazines! Whether it's fashion, gossip, or beauty; I practically buy every issue of every magazine out there :) My fav mag is the Cosmo Hair and Beauty specials (I think they have a new issue once every 1 or 2 months).

Schwarzkopf Silhouette Hairspray
Honestly, I just bought this because its bright pink! Turns out it's pretty good hair spray too :)

'Little i' Peppermints
As above, I bought this for the cute packaging!! It even has a little mirror on the inside when you slide the lid open! Now thats innovative thinking :)

Savvy by DB
This duo eyeshadow was under $5! Bargain! Im actually starting to warm to Savvy. I do think they should spice up their packaging a bit, I mean their current dark purple/brown isn't too lovely.. Saying that though, these shadows blend nicely.

Australis Season Jewels Palette
I love Australis! They've done nothing wrong in my eyes. This palette has 8 'in season' eyeshadows and 4 lipglosses; There's a really cute light pink lipstick/gloss that I adore! And it was under $10!
