Lush Aqua Marina Cleanser

Hi beauties,
Today I have another product from one of my favourite brands, Lush! It is the Lush Aqua Marina Cleanser. I have been using this product for the past couple of days and I have so much love for this product! The product is a skin-softening cleanser. It is a fresh cleanser which is one of the many perks of this product. Aqua Marina is like a pink mousse that is wrapped in seaweed. It feels so soft and wobbly, that I just kept playing with it instead of using it! I absolutely love the consistency of the cleanser. And, wow, it was such a joy to use! All you have to do is smooth it on and rinse it off. How simple?! I love how the product contains fresh ingredients. It has calamine and aloe vera to soothe irritated skin, especially when you've been caught by the sun or the wind. Also, the kaolin cleanses deeply and tightens your skin a little. After I rinsed the cleanser off, my skin felt so smooth and soft. I felt immediate results as my skin was smoother, softer and firmer straight away. In addition, Aqua Marina benefitted my skin as it left my skin feeling sweet and it looked brighter in complexion. I felt that the product was really calming and effective. It is just so good!

I Heart Lush: Sultana of Soap

Hi all,
So I absolutely love Lush (in case you haven't already noticed). And I have another product we delighted me. It was Lush Sultana of Soap. I don't normally purchase many soaps from Lush but this is going to be first on my shopping list. The soap looks so nice, like a big cake of Italian nougat. Yum! The product has the most beautiful scent. It smells nice and creamy and fruity. Sultana of Soap is encrusted with fruit and it full of copped apricots and currants. The scent is filled with spicy olibanum and smells like a sweet shop. The consistency of this soap is amazing. It is so soft and creamy. I love it! Sultana of Soap lathers really nicely on the skin. Afterwards, my skin felt so smooth and soft. It's superb! Also, the scent lingered on my skin for a while. When I was using the product, the scent just filled up my bathroom. It was delightful!

This product retails for $5.95 for 100g from Lush from www.lush.com.au

Travel with your Goat!

Hi all,
So as you may already know, I am in love with the brand Billy Goat Soap as their products are so damn good! Now, they have a fantastic, little set which I thoroughly enjoy.
This product is called Travel With Your Goat which is a travel pack. It contains:
 - 100ml moisturiser
 - 50g original plain soap
- 15ml natural lip balm
The selection of products for this travel pack are genius as you will definitely use them on your trip. When I went away, the pack definitely came into handy as it gave me the essentials I needed to nourish my body and lips. All this, and it comes in a really nice, convenient travel bag!
The packaging on this travel pack and of all these products are superb!
The moisturiser has all the benefits of goats milk that is combined with a range of natural ingredients, quality oils and a touch of lavender essential oil. It is so luscious and helps soothe the skin. You get a really good amount in this product.
The plain soap is the legendary Billie Goat Soap. It is handmade from fresh Australian goats milk and skin loving oils. The soap is particularly popular with people who have sensitive skin. I love this soap so so so so much. You can see how much I love it here
The final product in the pack is the lip balm which is the newest product in the range. I is the perfect answer to dry, chapped lips with the benefits of goats milk and all natural, loving ingredients. The quality of this product is fantastic.
This travel pack is a steal at just $14.95! 
          

Biore's Make-Up Removing Wipes

Hey beauties,
One thing that really bothers me is taking my makeup off before I go to bed. I really can't be bothered but I know I have to. But one product that really helps me to actually do so is Biore Make-Up Removing Wipes. They thoroughly clean by instantly dissolving makeup. I find that these wipes are just so convenient and handy. The packaging of these wipes are very nice, clean and simple. The wipes themselves are nice and soft and don't hurt your skin. This product locks onto dirt and makeup including waterproof mascara and lifts it away without leaving a greasy residue for a clean finish. The wipes are formulated with green tea and are really conditioning. The product really removed my makeup off well and do so quite quickly and efficiently. They also left my skin looking very healthy and feeling fresh, smooth and soft. What I also enjoy about this product is that they are available in a handy travel size for times when you are on the go.
You can purchase 25 wipes for $8.99 or 10 wipes for $3.99. How cheap is this?!
                     

Intensify the eyes with Prestige's Total Intensity Eyeliners

Hey all,
I am very very very fussy when looking for an eyeliner to purchase and use. I guess I want my money spent to be worth it. I really look for a nice consistency and beautiful colour. And I have just the product that goes above and beyond my standards. It is the Prestige Total Intensity Eyeliner
               
The packaging is great as it clearly communicates the colour of the eyeliner. The eyeliner provides intense colour with deep black undertones and comes in 10 shades. Wow! These eyeliners are really intense! I love them! What really seals the deal for me is their incredible consistency. They are super creamy and smooth and just glide on the skin. I can not explain how much I love their consistency. They are waterproof and smudge proof. I tried rubbing it so many times and the eyeliner did not budge at all. It's fantastic. The eyeliners are very long lasting and last up to 10 hours. On top of all of this, they are 100% paraben free. I have this eyeliner in two shades; Lively Turquoise and Strong Slate. Like its name Lively Turquoise is a very bright turquoise blue and it so metallic and vibrant. Strong Slate is an intense dark grey with black and purple undertones. It is so unique. I absolutely love these shades as they are so unique and intense. I particularly love Lively Turquoise. I am a bit bias though because any turquoise colour sucks me in. These eyeliners are amazing as the consistency is fantastic and the colour payoff is brilliant.
               
This product retails for $14.95 from Priceline and selected pharmacies.

Eyelash extensions are a rapidly growing trend. When investing in eyelash extensions, oil, glycerine and glycerol in cosmetic products breaks down and softens the bonding agent used to apply eyelash extensions.
Prolong Lash is the first and only most complete, truly "oil free" range, formulated specifically to protect bonded lashes and your skin.
This brand is fantastic and one product that has caught my eye is the Prolong Complete Care Eyelash Extension Cleanser. This product is designed to prolong the life of bonded eyelash extensions. It is pH balanced and gently removes surface debris without stripping the skin of its natural oils. The product is 100% free of Sodium Laureth Sulphate, artificial colours and fragrances. It removes non oil based makeup.
            
To use this product, place 2-3 drops of the cleanser onto a wet hand. Work it into a lather, then apply around the eyes, gently rolling the eyelash extensions between your finger tips from base to tip. Rinse well with clean water and gently pat dry. Apply moisturiser to the face and around eyes.
The features of this product:
 - It's oil-free
 - The product is glycerine and glycerol free

The benefits of this product:
 - It reduces refill time

This product is so pure and gentle on the skin. It effectively removes dead skin cells and daily pollution. The product can be used on the whole face and is oil-free, which I love. It has a nice gel-like consistency and has a great scent.

David Babaii Tutorial: Messy Braid

Hi everyone,
Today I have something to share with you. Here is one of David's Signature Celebrity Styles called the Messy Braid!


“The messy, loose braid, fish tail or plait is an adult spin on ‘school girl hair’ – it’s a mix of innocence and rebellion that makes it look so carefree” – David Babaii

This style is perfect for second-day hair!

HOW-TO:
1.     Start by tapping in David Babaii Instant Miracle Hair Volume Powder to give roots a refreshed lift.
2.     Determine how high you want the braid to sit and begin braiding. Don’t braid too tightly though – nest, tight braids are for little girls selling cookies.
3.     Leave a finger-length of hair unbraided at the end and secure with an elastic
4.     Pull out a few random strands of hair to frame the face. If ends are looking a little dull, spritz on David Babaii Miracle Elixir Oil for shine.

HOT-TIP: If starting out fresh, use David Babaii Ultimate Volume Shampoo & Conditioner to ensure roots have that va-va voom factor!

Enjoy!
