What to take on Holidays...

So next week I'm going to Europe! Which I'm oh so excited about. The hard thing about going overseas is decided what to pack, or more like what not to pack since I know I'll be after getting a few things.

So after much decision making this is what I've decided to take away...

1. Benefit's POREfessional

2. Youngblood's Rice Powder

3. Benefit's Boi-ing

4. Nars' Laguna Bronzer

5. MAC's Mocha Blush

6. MAC's Leopard Luxe Eye Shadow

7. Illamasqua's Neutral Palette Eye Shadow

8. Benefit's BAD Gal Mascara

9. Nars' Bourbon Street Eyeliner

10. Stila Lionfish Eye Liner

1. Environ AVST Cleansing Lotion (In a smaller container)

2. Environ AVST Moisturising Toner (In a smaller container)

3. Environ AVST 1 Moisturiser

4. Alpha-H Liquid Gold

5. Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Eye Cream 

6. Dermalogica Daily Resurfacer

7. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Lightweight Sunscreen
8. SK-II's FTE

I'm planning on buying a few things while I'm away, so I'm trying not to take too much with me. Just the basics which I use on a daily basis.

Colour Me Happy!

I’m not afraid of colour. Anyone that knows me knows that I don’t mind rocking a bright shirt or some pattern clashing jacket and jeans. And don’t even get me started on my shoe and handbag collection. But one place I don’t generally add heaps of colour is in my make-up.

When it comes to cheek colour I generally keep it fairly “natural” looking, most of the time I don’t rock a lip colour and if I do it’s generally red or pink and most of my eye shadows are naturals/ earth tones whether it be matte, metallic or dark.

However I do inject some colour in with eyeliners. I find eyeliners are such a great way to jazz up (yep I just said jazz up) a make-up look. I also like that you can get really playful colours and because you only apply them on a small portion of your face they aren’t too over powering.

So my collection consists of…

Mirenesse’s Tight Liner in Sapphire Blue. 

Illamasqua’s Fine Pencil in Classic and Uncanny. Illamasqua’s Precision Ink in Alchemy. 

Nutrimetics’ ShimmerEyes in Neon andTwilight. 

Nars’ Larger Than Life in Bourbon Street. 

MAC’s Eye Kohl in Phone Number. MAC’s Tchnakohl Liner in Purple Dash. 

Stila’s Smudge Stick in Lionfish.

My favorites are Stila’s Smudge Stick and Nars’ Larger Than Life. They not only have great colours but they also apply really well and last a really long time (I’m talking these babies are still on after a Bikram session). I’m going to Europe later this year so I will defiantly be getting these in a few more colours!

Sephora Beauty Haul

I know what you’re thinking; you’re thinking “you didn’t go overseas Nat”. And yes you would be correct, but my parents did and I gave them a shopping list!

Now I would like to point out that I did give this shopping list to my parents before the ABBW. With that said I most likely would have gotten everything anyway because, well because I wanted them: that simple really.

What features in my lovely haul you ask! Check out the list:

1. Benefit’s Cha Cha Tint 2. Benefit’s Finding Mr Bright 3. Benefit’s POREfessional 4. Stila’s Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Lionfish 5. Nars’ Single Eyeshadow in Fez 6. Nars’ Duo Eyeshadow in Cordura 7. Nars’ Lager Than Life Long-wear Eyeliner in Burbon Street 8. Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Scorn and Vice 10. Illamasqua Powder Blush in Lover 11. Nars’ Bronzer in Laguna 12. Boscia’s Pore Purifying Black Strips 13. Boscia’s Luminizing Black Mask 14. Boscia’s No Pores No Shine T-Zone Treatment

Also because Mum spent so much I also got this awesome little sample pack from Sephora. I know just what I need EVEN MORE beauty products.

Well all I know is I won’t need to buy anything beauty for a really really long time
