May Favourites!

Hey lovelies!

It's about time I did a May favourites and this time I have some amazing products to show you gals and guys! This month I have decided I would do a Food and Music favourites! This is just a tester to see how well it goes, if you guys don't like it let me know!

Each item has Australian prices and the store in which I purchased them from.

Makeup:
  • EcoTools Flat Foundation Brush - Priceline ($10.99)
In all honesty I have had this brush for about a year and a half but I never really used it because I was really into sponges at the time. But now that I have less time to get ready in the morning I have been really loving my Flat Foundation Brush. The bristles in this brush are so smooth and soft against my skin (for synthetic bristles these babies are so amazing and smooth), not to mention there is absolutely NO shedding! I use this brush six out of seven days a week and I regularly clean my brushes so I feel like I kinda know what synthetic brushes are good and what are a bit dodgy.

Whenever I feel like this brush has gone to makeup brush heaven I will be repurchasing this amazing brush!
  • Yes to Carrots Hydrating Shower Gel 500mL - Priceline ($12.99)
Okay so I have kinda sensitive skin (especially my legs!) and its probably due to the fact that I have been shaving my legs for aggggges! Anyway I am pleased to say that I have found my new favourite shaving gel! Now I know this is a shower gel and NOT a shaving gel BUUUUUT it is seriously the most perfect shaving gel! (I am saying this as someone that cannot even use Organic shaving gels because they cause me to get a massive rash that hurts so badly!)

You would think this gel would smell like carrots, but it doesn't have a carrot-y smell or anything even remotely carrot related. Personally I really do like this shower gel because I can use it as both a shower gel and a shaving gel. The consistency of this gel is thick but not too thick, its just the right consistency for a shaving gel.

I will definitely be repurchasing this when I run out, it is so perfect and until my skin gets used to it and starts rashing up again it is the perfect shaving gel.
  • Yes to Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes - Priceline ($9.99)
So I have been using a liquid makeup remover for a few years but recently I ran out of my usual one and to my sadness Priceline didn't have any in stock! I thought I would mix it up a bit and try some towelettes just until they got more liquid back in stock. But now all I can do is thank them for making me try something new! These towelettes are so beautiful! They smell so good! It's almost like you could just take a bite right out of them! They just smell so fresh!
Yes to Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes comes in a pack of 30, but in all honesty you only need one wipe to do your whole face and remove all of your makeup! These little babies are also excellent when you just want to re-fresh your face (like when you come out of the gym and have been sweating up a storm, just wipe your face with one of these and let it air dry! It will result in your skin feeling fresh and clean.)

Food:

So I have been a little bit sick in May and as a result have been through quite a few different brands of cough lollies/lozenges!
  • Strepsils Cool (instant cooling sensation with double antibacterial action) - $
Right now I am in love with the Strepsils Cool lozenges! Not only do they taste okay (kinda like tea tree oil but not as strong) they also work! I won't lie and say they totally work and cure your sore throat, but they do a pretty decent job and keep it calm for a few hours.

Revlon Colourstay Top Coat (shade 999) - REVIEW!!

Hello Lovlies!

I'm not going to post a big review tonight because I am suuuuuper busy but I needed to let you all know about the Revlon Colourstay Top Coat (shade 999) because it is seriously they best top coat I have ever used!

You know that feeling when you touch freshly painted nails and they can feel like they have little divots in them? Well let me introduce you to the Revlon Colourstay Top Coat! With just one coat your nails feel smooth and the polish feels covered and protected!

The packaging is really simple by looking like every other Revlon nail polish (which is really nice, but also a bit of a pain. When you are in a hurry and need to put a top coat on and you just pick up the wrong bottle and have to search for it again!(I know what I just said didn't make much sense!!))

My one main problem with the nail polish as a whole is the applicator. It is the same applicator used for coloured nail polish and as a result you need to do more to cover the whole nail with a small amount of CLEAR top coat.



PRICE: $16.95 (Priceline)
RATE: 8/10
COMMENT: I will be purchasing the Revlon Colourstay Top Coat (shade 999) when I run out of this one because I am totally in love with it and how fast it dries for a non fast-drying polish.

Cutex Nourishing Nail Polish Remover - REVIEW!!!

Hello lovlies!

I thought I would do a review on my current nail polish remover because over the past few years I have gone through some really nasty removers and for once I am using one that is cheap but also does a decent job!

At the moment I am using the Cutex Nourishing Nail Polish Remover and ladies/gentlemen this is a wonderful remover! It removes all of the polish (no matter how many coats I have on, it literally removes the whole thing in a few wipes!), because I use a cotton ball to remove nail polish I have noticed that since using the Cutex nail polish remover I have been able to clean 3 to 4 fingers with the one ball before I need to apply more remover to the ball.

I've been using this remover for about a month and a half now and it looks like I have hardly touched it! The life on my 100mL bottle is going to be forever!

Unfortunately it does have the toxic smell most removers have, but if you have a cut or quicks on your fingers it doesn't sting or irritate them at all, nice for someone that works lots with papers and gets paper cuts, or of course is a bit clumsy like me! :)

Now I don't know if the whole 'nourishing with vitamins and moisturisers, nails whitening formula' actually is in it let alone works, but my nails have felt okay after Im done and I guess over time they have been feeling a little bit stronger. But I definitely am skeptical on the moisturisers etc.



PURCHASED FROM: Priceline
PRICE: $4.95/5.95
RATE: 7-8/10
COMMENT: I would definitely repurchase this when I run out, but it does seem to last a long time so I don't know when I will need a new one. The packaging is cute but also not too overrated. Overall this nail polish remover does it's job and that's all I can really ask for.

Rimmel London Metal Rush - Gold Save the Queen

Hello lovelies!
So today I was at Priceline checking out their 2 day (Tuesday 23rd of April to Wednesday 24th of April) 40% off cosmetics sale when I came across a new Rimmel London nail polish. Unlike the last nail polish I did a review on this colour is quite amazing! It's called Gold Save the Queen and is from the Metal Rush collection.

The Metal Rush collection consists of four colours: Gold Save the Queen, Purple Reign, Royale Blue and Pearly Queen. All of these colours are each to their own, but, I do think that they are very pretty and will look really nice over the colder months.


FYI this nail polish is almost a dupe for the O.P.I 007 Skyfall Collection GoldenEye colour. It's a little more metallic but for the price (normally valued at $7.95 is more than half the price of an average O.P.I polish) it is definatly a good buy.
