SO, in Perth, I bought a bunch of new products just to try out! Some have been recommended to me before, not just by beauty gurus online but also by other people who have used them! HERE GOES!
1. Maybeline Eyeshadow Smokey Quad
Since I’m onto missions and require carrying all my things with me, I needed something small, as compared to my huge Bh Cosmetics 88 Color Matte Eye Shadow Palette. So I settled for this! Its not too bad I’d say. It gives me everything I need to make a neutral shadow if I want to use it, and I can add on more of the dark colors to make it a nice smokey eye. I cant recall exactly how much it was, but it will defiantly give you mileage!!
2. Revlon PhotoReady Compact Makeup
This foundation is really great for on-the-go touch ups. It gives great coverage! Supposedly, it is actually a cream solution, which liquifies when u press it through the plastic which covers the cream. I never really knew that until recently. I use my brush and distribute it all over my face. It gives great coverage, and is the basic Revlon PhotoReady solution. It has SPF 20 too!
3. Maybeline Big Great Lash Mascara
Alright, I’ll admit, this buy was out of impulse. Not that I actually wanted or needed it, but because I missed coating my lashes with wonderful volumizing mascara. Im found GUILTY!!! Its not a bad mascara. It doesnt clump or anything. It just makes my lashes look really dark. Its a great dup for the Mac Haute & Naughty Lash Mascara.
4. Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain in Passion
MY FIRST LIP STAIN! HOW EXCITING! Alrighty! So far, I’m LOVING this product. The staying power is not as long as I would like it to be, but I love the color and how it makes me look. I chose this color because I could put a tiny bit on, and make my lips looking really natural, and add on more to get a more dramatic effect. I prefer using it without the lip balm provided, because I find that when I use the balm, the color comes off a lot faster. It could just be me, I’m not too sure!
5. NARS Bronzer in Laguna
What a great start to using bronzer for me! I’ve been told that NARS blush and bronzer is the way to go! Since I already have the blush, I thought I would complete my collection with this bronzer. I love how it makes my skin look! It was formulated to match ALL skin tones! So go for it guys! This is a GREAT buy!!
5. Lush No Drought Dry Shampoo
When I bought this, I had a couple of things in mind. I was going to a 3rd world country, with possibly little opportunity for me to shower. Thats where I got my inspiration to buy this. Its not a bad product! It smells wonderful, as most LUSH products smell. It actually smells like grapefruit with a slight lemony twist! Works beautifully on my hair, from greasy to non greasy in an instant! It lightens my roots a little! But i do need that since my hair is growing out and that grossness of my hair is coming out! So its really perfect for me 🙂
6. Lush Toothy Tabs in Dirty
These toothy tabs, I must admit, clean my teeth better than my regular tooth paste does. Kinda weird! I know. It tastes rather strange, but for the most part, it makes my teeth WHITER and CLEANER, and my breath FRESHER TOO. So, yes, this was also bought because I thought solid toothpaste would be a much simpler alternative on my missions here in Nepal! So far, its working well. Each box comes with 40 tabs, and guess what, ITS ONLY $3.95!! HOW INSANE IS THAT. SERIOUSLY. If you have a LUSH store near you, IM SAYING HERE, AND NOW, GET THIS. OR AT LEAST GET ONE BOX OF TOOTHY TABS!!! SO GOOD.
7. Lush Sesame Fresh Face Mask
Sadly, I dont have a photo of this product! BUT! it looks like a light grey paste with sesame in it! It made me look like a sea monster. I had it on in my dorm one night and I scared my friend so badly, she fell on the floor. It was to make my skin smoother and clearer, and might I just say, it WORKED! My skin felt so beautiful and rejuvenated! It was good!
So thats my little review of the products that I’ve purchased during my stay in lovely Perth. I will be going back there in 2 months after London SO! Maybe I will stock up on some of the things which are availible there and not availible in Singapore. Til next time,
xoxo, Sarah
