CoverGirl Lash Blast mascara

There's not many mascara's that I have tried so far that from the first application has amazed me. I'd heard so many good things about this mascara and finally got around to purchasing it. I have to say, what everyone says is exactly right! I looooove this mascara, it makes my lashes look long and full and very black. I also love that it is build-able, as you add more and more layers it doesn't get clumpy or make your lashes bunch together, it just adds beautiful length and volume. It's definately my new favorite everyday mascara :) I will say I do prefer a different mascara from ModelCo for when I go out at night, which makes you seriously look like you have fake lashes on as it has fibers that add you your natural lashes. I will do a review on that in a separate post. 

The CoverGirl lash blast is the mascara I use everyday now, it is absolutely amazing and so inexpensive! I give it 5 stars and can't believe didn't purchase this earlier :)

Let me know if you have use/like this mascara or what you fave mascara is!!

Study and bowling...

Bowling shoes are so comfy, and this place had fluro lights so they glowed!!

It's back to work for now :( I'll have a more interesting post up this weekend when my assignment is all done!!

Mini Lip Haul!

So Revlon had a buy one get one free sale on at target for lip products... which for me is exciting because in Australia it costs like $25 for a Revlon lipstick >.< I picked up 3 lipsticks and 1 lip-stain and I also grabbed a CoverGirl lipstick and 2 lip balms. 

Here's what I got....

In order from top to bottom: CoverGirl's Rapture, Revlon's Coralberry, Revlon's Soft Nude, Revlon's True Red

Sally Hansen Salon Effects

I know its probably old news to most but Sally Hansen has only recently brought out the salon effects nail strips in Australia. I finally got a couple of boxes today to try and I've only just put them on so it's too early to comment on how long they last but so far I'm quite impressed with the quality! They have a nice smooth finish which is great because I was a bit worried they wouldn't feel very smooth.

When I was first applying them it was a little awkward but after you do a few nails I got the hang of it :)

The two colours I got are 280 Blue Ice (left) and 350 Misbehaved (right)...

Blue Ice is a really pretty sparkly blue and Misbehaved is gold with like a black fishnet pattern.

Today I chose to do Misbehaved and this is how it turned out...

Let me know what you think and any colours you've tried and really love :)

(those are lipstick swatches from today on my hand by the way lol)

An early summer...

I can't believe its so hot already!! looks like were going to have an early summer, it got up to 33 degrees yesterday :S Makes me worry a bit about how hot it will actually get this year.

Yesterday I had my 5th birthday to attend in the past month, seems as though September is a popular month for birthdays lol. It was my cousin's 30th birthday and her husband organised a surprise party which was sooo cute :)

Today I'm back to study, I cant wait until this semester is over and I can enjoy the summer! 

Here's a few pics I took yesterday to share with you...

I wore minimal makeup yesterday seeing as it was so hot!

Thanks for reading :)

Revlon nail polishes

TGIF!! Well, in Australia it is anyway... Being a student it's sometimes hard to find a good life balance so I have a rule that unless I have assignments due I don't study on weekends. I think its good to give yourself a break :)

Today I wanted to share my current favorite nail polishes. I started buying Revlon polishes a few months ago and have fallen in love with them. The brush isn't too big but it's not teeny tiny either, and they have one of the longest no-chip life of all the polishes I have. So here's the colours I've collected so far....

The Peach Smoothie and Bubble Gum colours are also scented which I love! The Peach Smoothie one make you want to eat your nails haha.

I also took Molly to the groomers like 2 weeks ago for the first time and I just wanted to share this picture...

The bow didn't last long but it was soooo cute! >.<  I think I'm going to take her again in 2 weeks.

Let me know what you think of Revlon's nail polishes and any colours you recommend.

Thanks for reading!
