Le Tan: Instant Face Tan

A new product from Le Tan called Le Tan Instant Face Tan!


Ever heard about the rule Body Tan should always match your face. Well, you should abide by it. It can be quite impossible but not anymore with Face Tan by Le Tan. Take a look at the video below that I put together to introduce you to review.

When I recieved this from Le Tan, I found it very interesting. It was the fact that not only did they create a fantastic invention of face tan but also because of the presentation. They used a Barbie doll with a body tan but no face tan.

I am excited to tell you about this product as it hasnt even come out yet! Le Tan Instant Face Tan provides the face a radiant glow whatever the weather. Now my philosophy about tanning is always fake it. I never naturally tan. It is always fake tan or spray tan and I like it because getting a natural tan is not good for you. But this tan is there on your face rain, hail or shine.

The formula is tinted and is long lasting and not streaky like all Le Tan's products. Also I like how the product is actually natural - looking and matches your body tan. Tanning has never been so fool-proof.
The difference between this and all the other products from Le Tan is that it is specially formulated for delicate face skin and also contains Vitamin E for hydration. Le Tan Instant Face Tan also has Lycopene with provides antioxidant protaction from environmental damage


Le Tan Instant Face Tan in Radiant Glow
75ml              RRP: $7.99

My View on: Rolling Makeup Cases from Dance Moms

Read more on my opinion about the rolling makeup cases seen in the reality show Dance Moms.



If you don't know what I'm talking about, let me tell you. Dance Moms is a reality show about a dance studio and particularly a group aged 6-13 with their mothers and teacher, Miss Abby. Along with their talent is their makeup. Well they have these luxurious cases with tables and mirrors and lights. Wow, just amazing.

Dance Moms Makeup Case

Take a look at the video above that I put together. It is an introduction to their beauty world during Episode 1.

Well, during research, I found out that they have two different cases and that there a similar ones that you can buy online. One is affordable and the other is a bit pricey. I think that they are a great investment because you can store all your makeup in it even if you are not a dancer.

So the one with the mirror and lights that stands up is pictured above. I found this on sale at Makeup Creations for $595. If you are interested, check out the site because it provides you a great description of the case.

The other one is just the standard case which I love. I found these at Yazmo ranging from $119.95 to $219.95. The great thing about these are that they have lots of storage but are also cute. There are a lot of designs ranging from Turquoise Zebra print to Brown and Pink Polka Dots.

So I think they are great. Comment below to tell me your opinion!

My ACW Shopping List

Take a peek at my All Cosmetics Wholesale Shopping List to see what I buy!

All Cosmetics Wholesale is a fantabulous online store that ships to Australia. Yay! I started looking and of course formed a load of products in my cart. I actually had to condense it. All of the products are Stila except one because it is one of my favourite brands. Stila has affordable, cute and good quality products.

1. Stila Barbie Trio
I found this an absolute bargain. The trio contains a Glitter Eye Shadow in Petal, a Glitter Eye Shadow in Ice and a Shimmer Cheek Mousse in Lotus. I liked the white eye shadow for dancing and thought that the whole set was a good value.
RRP: $30
ACW Price: $12.99



2. Stila Barbie Lip Glaze in XoXo
Stila is known for their lip glazes and loved by most beauty gurus. This is another product part of the Barbie Loves Stila range. There is one in the set which is a sheer shimmery red.
The lip glazes are great to go over lipstick or by itself.
RRP: $22
ACW Price: $9.99





3. Stila Eye Shadow in Sweetheart
I have been on the hunt for a purple and pink eye shadow and this is perfect. The product is beautiful and comes as shown in the picture.
RRP: $18
ACW Price: $6.99






4. Z - Palette in Small Pink
I think everyone needs  Z-Palette and since I put the product above in my shopping list, I needed a place to store it. The palette is really cute and you can store a lot in your own and many ways.
ACW Price: $14



5. Stila Eyeshadow Duo in Tatiana
This eye shadow duo is just so pretty and feminine. The colours are just to die for and I don't really have that sort of colours in my kit. The products will fit perfectly in my Z - Palette.
RRP: $18
ACW Price: $4.99

Australis Killer Curves

Check out the new mascara by Australis here!


Killer Curves Mascara by Australis has recently been released and I wanted to tell you all about it! The first 'tubing' mascara, actually curls, lifts and separates your lashes. The packaging is super sleek and cute with a great colour scheme and theme to it. As I said, it is 'tubing' which means no 'panda eyes'. And it has a curved silicon brush so you dint need to use an eyelash curler.

This product is easy to use, easy to apply, it adds extra volume and length to my lashes and is affordable. I really love this mascara and is my favourite at the moment.

Happy 100th Post! Dance Makeup

Here are the tips and tricks on what makeup you need for dance performances!

As a dancer, I know what you need in your makeup kit. If you like this post, I will do a Dance Hair kit post.
Start with the face:
1. Face primer
This is optional as sometimes you don't have a lot of time up your sleeve and I have to skip primer. But I will make your makeup last longer!
2. Concealer
This will hide any imperfections that the lights may pick up as well as natural light.
3. Foundation
A must have! It will give a base and make sure you have the right skin tone.
4. Setting Powder
The powder will set the foundation for long wear.
5. Blush
Also a must have, this will give the cheeks some colour. I like to take a blush with several colours and use the all for variety.
The Eyes:
1. Eye shadows
Certainly a must have. I like to take a smoky eye palette, black, white and several shadows that go with my eye colour.
2. Mascara
Take two different ones to get more volume.
3. False Eyelashes
A dance must have. That's all there is to it!
4. Eyelash Curler
Give you lashes a curl for the stage.
5. Eyeliner
I only take one eyeliner which is black and pencil.
The Rest:
1. Red Lipstick
This is also a dance must have!
2. Lip gloss
It is optional as it rubs off your lipstick.
3. A Variety of Brushes
I like to take travel brushes for convenience and variety.
So I think that is all the makeup I take xx

Australis Mint Condition Lip Gloss

Wishing there was this one lipgloss that actually gave your lips some tender, love and care?


Now there is. Introducing Australis Mint Condition Lipglosses. Let me just say I absolutely love these. Packed with SPF 30, guava, Kakadu plum extract, shea butter and beeswax for moisture and mint and cinnamon oils, you cant go wrong. There are seven shades but I only own six which are inspired by a secret garden path.

Pictured (left to right): Happily Ever Laughter, Meow with you Mind, Freely Innocent, Malice in Wonderpink, Un-birthday Suit and an Evening With?

I know I always carry my Chapstick in my pocket but I also recently started carrying on of these lipglosses in Happily Ever Laughter. It is great to put on top of lipstick or by itself. The product really adds great colour and shine to your lips. I also can also feel it working on my lips and the minty flavour lingers for a while. They just make the perfect little lipgloss. I love how there is a great variety of shades for every look. Australis did it again! They created another great product.

Hollywood Review: Fashion Tape, Soothing Spots and much more

The creators of the almighty fashion tape which has saved at least every woman once. But this company does not only specialise in this product...


Well, I have several products to review in this post, each great in their own way. So let's get started.

Hollywood Fashion Tape
The product that started all of what is Hollywood. It holds all clothing in place. According to the product, it can:
 - Hide bra straps
 - Secure revealing necklines
 - Hold up strapless tops
 - Eliminate blouse gaps
 - Fix hems fast
 - Close wrap skirts
 - Keep scarves and accessories in place
 - Create costumes
 - Adhere body jewels
 - Anchor shoulder pads
So the tape is really good for everything. With easy application, this product will keep your clothing secure for how long you want it to be. I recommend to purchase the item with the case because the tape is already cut into single strips and the case keeps them all together. The case is also so compact to fit in your purse. The product is all round amazing!



Velvet Cushions and Velvet Full Cushion
The main difference between these two products is that the full cushion covers the whole foot whereas the normal cushions cover half a foot. Other than that, they are the same. Wow, this is a great product. Also with easy application, this product sticks in your shoes no matter what. The cushions are composed of gel covered with velvet. It is so secret and non - slip that no-one will know you are wearing them. Perfect for heels, flats and boots, the best thing about them is that they have a lavender scent. I love this fact because it adds extra wow factor to it and the product smells so nice too!

Gel Cushions
These cushions let you part from the burning pain in the balls of your feet which is so discreet. Like the products above, it is non slip but is just gel. The cushion really stick and you can feel the comfort of the product. It also has added lavender scent which I find fantastic.

Soothing Spots
Another great product! Soothing Spots are mini gel cushion that provide comfort and protection from the rubbing of shoes so secretly. Also with a lavender scent, this product is non-slip. These are fantastic to put in your bag for instant relief. They are easy to apply and come in a set of six.



Stain Remover Pen
How can stain remover come in a convenient pen? I don't know but it is superb. The pen is a great size and quite slick. You just press the pen on the stain to release the substance and rub it on the stain. The stain is mostly decreased or removed. A great product isn't it?

My View on: Beauty Gurus

Beauty Gurus are very popular in the beauty community. Here's my opinion on the subject!


Beauty gurus are a great and inexpensive way to learn all tips and tricks in the comfort of your home. Most of these gurus, know what they are talking about and they have great advice. Let me tell you my favourites gurus in no particular order.

Product Alert: OPI Spookettes Set

Here about the latest product before and when they hit the shelves!


From my recent travels, I picked up a very special product that I haven't even received the press release about yet. It is...

OPI Spookettes! Four mini OPI nail lacquers and the best thing is that one GLOWS IN THE DARK! This is great for Halloween.
Shades (from left to right):
He's my Boo
Mummy Knows Best
I only date Werewolves
Zom-body to Love
I absolutely love the quirky names. I really like how they are out there shades. To be honest, I really wouldn't spend $20 on He's my Boo in full size as I prefer to wear different colours. But as a Halloween colour, I love it. I don't know how much this retails for and when it is going to come out but I know I got it in Hawaii for $10.99. I am now hoping I have a Halloween event taking place this year so I can wear my nail polishes. The product also comes with spooky nail decals. How cool!
