PLNDR HAUL Blog Giveaway!

So if you have arrived from my youtube channel welcome to my blog! (if you have not, I'll include the video for you to view now!)

My Fashion haul ft. PLNDR, Alley, Valleygirl + More!



As I've said in the video, I unfortunately will have to let go a gorgeous dress that I forever curse my body for not being able to adequately fit. It is "The Zoey Dress" by a brand called "For Love & Lemons".





It's a gorgeous dress that when worn correctly, can look super adorable! It is a SIZE 6 that fits true to size, so please when entering the giveaway - consider the size. I would love to give it to someone who can get great use out of it!

So the rules of the giveaway are simple:

1. Follow this blog (on bloglovin or google friends - just let me know your username) + my youtube
2. Comment down below letting me now if you want to enter (only once per day)
3. 18yrs+ (as I will be asking your address)

The rules are simple and the competition will end in 1 week's time (26th April 12:00am Australia EST). I will ship anywhere in the world :)
I will pick the winner using random.org and I will most likely announce it on this blog or twitter!

Alright and that it all - hopefully you guys enjoyed my haul video, and goodluck to those entering my giveaway! I know it's not much but I thought many of my gorgeous subbies will probably fit this dress way way WAY better than I ever will, and it's a dress that deserves a good owner!

Thanks for reading this blog and as always, thank you so much for subscribing/following my blog. You guys and your support have meant SO MUCH to me! Love you guys!

Shoe obsessed?

I dont know what it is, but something about a lovely pair of shoes just gets me so excited. There's nothing like the finding the perfect pair of heels that goes with with every outfit and every occasion. Now I am a self-proclaimed shoe addict, and I am agreeable to saying that no woman needs the number of shoes I own. However, dont they just make you happy??

So the point of all of this? A company contacted me to peruse through their website for anything I was interested in, and on first impression, it was reminiscent of sheinside.com and romwe.com. So already, I was at the very minimum; interested. But as I browsed through, I noticed they had extensive "shoes" section and ladies, I must show you some of the gems in stock!

My PERSUNMALL Wishlist Shoe List

I love last two styles and I also adore the first style - however I would much prefer it in a white as I already have a similar pair that I bought from ASOS. One negative however is that the prices of some of these shoes are not cheap - going up to $100+. But true to the style of romwe and other such websites, there are discount codes for spending over a certain amount which is fantastic. (I would cheekily recommend breaking up the order if it's over $200 so that you can get more $$ off ;) haha)


At this point, I can not really comment on the quality of shoes - but I am inclined to order a pair so when those arrive I will let you know. So definitely watch this space! I've actually had good luck in the past from ordering from shoes from these types of websites - so my hopes are high.

The selection of clothing pieces are not as varied and numerous as sheinside.com and romwe.com but I must say that I do rate the wide range of bags available on the website - there are definitely some cute styles in there! 

So there you go. This was just a heads up incase some were interested in shoes as the styles really caught my eye. Has anyone ordered from Persunmall before? If so - what are your thoughts?

NEW Savvy Long Lasting MATTE Lipsticks - MAC DUPES??

Hi there everyone!! So I have some really exciting products that I bought today that I absolutely had to show you! I'm a very big fan of shopping online, but often doing so means you miss out on some of the newer australian cosmetic products available in stores.

So today as I was grocery shopping I had a bit of a wander around priceline and found THESE babies! It looks like they're limited edition, but it's a new line of MATTE lipsticks from SAVVY by DB! I believe there were a total of only 8 shades. Though they were of a matte texture, some had shimmer/sparkle giving a more velvet look, and some were just matte and opaque. Although there were a few of the lighter shades that I found questionable on anybody, the darker half of the shades were FANTASTIC and picked one of each! Swatched, they were amazingly pigmented and matte, and best of all???? THEY WERE ONLY $6.99!!! Can you believe that?? $6.99 peoples!! Now that's more like it! Finally we are seeing "drugstore prices" that are actually comparable to the US "drugstore" prices!! Well done SAVVY!

So, before I babble on some more, shall I just show you my newest babies?? I only picked 4 (initially was just going to get 1), but for $7 each, I though what the heck! The total cost of all four will STILL be cheaper than a MAC lipstick and I'm telling you, these babies are absolutely WORTH the price! If not more! I would have happpppily payed $15+ for them!

Word of warning: PIC HEAVY!







Left to Right: Vegas, Bali, Morocco, Maui


LIP SWATCHES!



Morocco: 

Opaque blue-based red. Reminiscent of MAC Lipstick in "Red" (Satin finish)



Bali: 

Deep blue based burgandy/purple. Very very slight shimmer, but not noticeable on application. Reminiscent of MAC Lipstick in "Rebel"



Vegas: 

Orange based red. Brighter shade than Morocco. Reminiscent of MAC lipstick in "Lady Danger"



Maui:

Very bright (almost neon-ish) milky coral. Again, some very slight golden shimmer on close examination, but not noticeable at all on application. Reminiscent of MAC lipstick in "Vegas Volt"




Well, that is all folks! Unfortunately, I have only JUST bought them but on application I found them quite smooth. I did have to build up the opacity but I find I have to do that with most of the matte lipsticks I have anyways. They are of a dry-er texture (similar to WetnWild matte lipsticks) but no where near as matte as MAC Ruby Woo. It was comfortable for me, but I'm very used to the feeling of matte lipsticks (that's all I wear). I cant comment on how "long" they last, but given it's a matte lipstick I can almost guarantee that they will last longer than the regular lipsticks anyways.

Over all, a BIIIIG BIG THUMBS UP from me. Not only for the FABulous colours, but also the amazing texture, pigmentation and most importantly: THE PRICE! $6.99 a pop - Not bad for a matte lipstick!!

I recommend ALL of the colours I've picked out - they're fantastic and if you've ever wanted a matte red lipstick, here's your chance without breaking the bank! Check them out at priceline and get them before they run out as they are limited edition!



I'm glad the beauty industry in Australia is finally reducing prices and increasing quality. Another amazing item from SAVVY. Very impressed!

Hope you guys found this helpful and dont forget to check it out!!

(PS - Sorry for the HORRIBLE lipswatches! I was literally rushing to take the photos as the sun was quickly going down!! booo.)

First Product Empties!

So this may be new to some, and a very regular thing for others... but here I am to present to you all my first ever product EMPTIES video/post!

As I have mentioned in my video, I very rarely finish a product completely (mainly because I go off and open a new product) so if you're ever in my room, you will see millions of half empty foundations/powders/slightly used blushes... etc! It's a mess.

But alas, I finally finished my first MAC product and I am thrilled. I was so excited that I hit pan that I already wanted to purchase a back up... but decided that I probably should try to finish up the other already half used products.

I'm hoping that this will motivate me to keep at the products and try to finish them... but is it just me or do some people find other people go through makeup products so quickly?? I mean, do some people eat them or something? Because I remember I would watch them haul it, and nek minnit it's in their empties! I'm just wondering if I'm doing something wrong because nothing seems to finish on me! haha. Alright, so enough with the rambling... onto the post!



Products I've finished this month:


If you haven't seen the video, I've included it here:




What's on my face:

FACE

EYES:
- Ever Bilena clear mascara

LIPS:
- Rimmel Kate Moss Lasting Finish Matte Lipstick in 112

So that's it! I will try to accompany all my new videos with a blogpost with details of what makeup I'm wearing and such so people can refer here for those details. Also because when some people ask it's already been so long that I've forgotten!

Also, I've finally got the book I was talking about in my previous post. So I'll be having a browse through that tonight, and hopefully get some inspiration :)

Righteo, that's all for now folks! Until next time :)

SEDONA LACE WINNER!

Hi all!

Here I am again, trying to resuscitate this damn blog. I dont know what it is about blogging but I sure find it more tedious that making videos! I think it's the whole uploading pictures onto a website, then physically linking each one! haha.

But I really like the idea of blogs because not only can just just Command+F or Ctrl+F something you're looking for, there are pictures!

Anyways, this is just to let you guys know I'm officially jumping back on the blogging bandwagon. I've actually gone ahead and purchased BLOG INC as was recommended by Viviana. So hopefully that will spark some motivation in me! Otherwise how does everyone feel about blogging? Dont get me wrong, I'm always turning to blogs for swatches, reviews - so I love them and find them absolutely valuable and I want something like that for people to refer to.... but damn it's tedious?? haha.

So the point of this was just to post my recent video details on what I was wearing on my face. If you havent seen it yet, check out my March Favourites on my youtube channel!
