Profusion's cruelty free eye shadow palettes

Hello lovelies! another wet and cold day for us in Melbourne today, however these swatches and eye shadows will warm you up, I am sure! I have this lovely naturals one, and a fantastic pan full of Autumn glamour colours.They are cheap, cruelty free, and good quality to boot! I was sceptical about Profusions at first but they are fast becoming one of my favourite brands for drugstore.

This is a stunning palette that creates the most amazing looks! all shades are pigmented, creamy to use and little to no fallout. Six shades from warm to cool, what more could you want?

 The colours are amazing, a mixture of matte, shimmers and satins, in six different shades. I purchased these at The Reject Shop.
 They are very long wearing on the eyes, and don't crease or smear, and are very pigmented!

 Versatile and pretty! interesting shades in both bolds and naturals.

I've really loved these two palettes! and have some more exciting Profusions products to show you!

Face of Australia lip quench Peaches and cream swatch and review

Hello all on this wet Thursday lunch break! I'm happy to say I'm heading out to lunch soon! so that means photos of that on my instagram haha. However today I'm writing my impressions of this little lipstick. Face of Australia lip quench with spf 30, jojoba oil, vitamin e and shea butter. The colour is Peaches and Cream.

 I love this range of lipstick! it lasts fab on the lips, smooths, non tugging formula and pigmented to boot, what more could you ask for? well cute colours and they have done that too.

 A better than my lips pink nude, an all round great every day colour that can be vamped up for night time or special occasions.

 Typical tube packaging but still sturdy and wont make a mess in your handpag/purse. they swatch amazingly well.

Smooth and even colour, non greasy or slippery on the lips but still soothing to wear. Regular retail price is $9.45 so a great bargain at just under $10, I picked these up though from Kmart for half price which I was super thrilled about. 

Have you tried these from Face of Australia?

have a great Thursday!

Milani blushes tea rose and delizioso pink review and swatches

Hello lovelies, today I'm sharing with you a new passion of mine, and that is blush! I never used to be even interested in blushes because naturally I have very red cheeks. But since my make up has improved and thus my foundation application has improved I have since found blush creates a very endearing look on the skin.

Introducing two of my favourites, which were sent to me from a friend in a make up swap!

 Milani blushes in tea rose, and Delizioso pink! the colours are so divine and lovely, as with the blushes themselves.

 pigmented, smooth and easy to blend out, these really pack a punch with their vibrancy!

have you tried these from Milani?

how to get brighter and whiter teeth for free!

Hello all, today I did an experiment and I made my own home made charcoal to see if charcoal really works to clean and whiten your teeth. I read that you can make water purifiers out of charcoal as well so I am making an educated guess that it is safe to use, probably activated charcoal is best but I'm being cheap.

 To make charcoal I used burnt some paper, and waited until it cooled. Mashed it up with a fork and then added a little bit of water.

 This was the before of how my teeth looked, not too crash hot as I am a coffee and wine addict haha.

 I swished it in my mouth for a good 15 minutes, similar to how you oil pull, swish it around like you would with mouthwash. I then washed my mouth out, and brushed my teeth.

 I'm actually surprised this worked! I can see a subtle difference in my teeth, they are brighter, a little bit whiter too. Being a natural diy that didn't cost me anything I was truly surprised.

have you guys tried this method? has it worked? what other diy's would you like to see?

Face of australia lip quench pink champagne

Hello all! today I am so in love with this formulation of this lipstick I am about to show you! its the Face of Australia lip quench lipstick in pink champagne. It's such a pretty colour and the formular is like butter but so pigmented.

The lipsticks have shea butter and johoba oil mixed into the lipstick which conditions the lips and helps keep the colour on.

The finish of these colours are intense, pigmented, yet creamy and smooth, they last a good couple of hours without needing to touch up, and best of all they don't cling to any dry patches, and soothes sore dry lips, if any of you are like me having chronic dry lips you'll be happy about this!

 The colour is muted however its strong after a couple of wipes. It glides on effortlessly and wears well throughout the time on the lips. No drying, no feathering.

 I am just in love with this colour, it reminds me of fairy floss, or cotton candy, and its such a great every day colour.

 The packaging is sleek, and standard, and for $9.99 a great all round price, for a great all round product.

have you used any of these lipsticks yet from Face of Australia?

nature can be cruel

Hi loves! today I have a sad but also surrreal story to tell, I was walking home, and it was a lovely sunny afternnoon. I'd just finished my shift at work and was just making my way back after picking up some groceries. I stumbled upon a possum that had been presumably hit by a car, she was dying, there was sadly nothing I could have done for her, and she took her last gasp as I arrived. Knowing her death was recent, I took a closer look, her pouch moved!

Luckily I had because three new born possums were in her pouch and were still alive! I was close to home so I scooped them up and raced home. Once home I called my friend Shelley because I don't drive and needed to get them to a vet to get them to warmth and actual care, I'm not experienced with possums.

possum vlog

The vet said they would try but because they were only approx about 2 days old there wasn't much chance, I'm going to call up in a day to see what's happened, lets wish these little possums luck!

any experiences like this?
