So where have I been and what have I been loving…






So…long time no see blogees, to be honest its been a few months since ive written a blog post, but I have had a very full on few months and now that I am on holidays I am back to share what beauty bits I have been loving and obsessing over.

Firstly I have been obsessed with some new foundations for the warmer weather, Shiseido sun protect foundation is long wearing, water proof and SPF 43++, which is absolutely amazing, it is a little on the darker side for pale people such as myself, and does only come in 6-8 shades, but for those who can get a shade match, its incredible. The foundation feels so lightweight, like you are applying cool water so your face, and it is incredibly blendable and buildable from medium to full coverage if you want it. Given that it is a water based foundation you do need to shake it before use, but that is no drama for me. The foundation for all us Aussie women is available in myer and david jones, but I suggest going in to only get colour matched and purchasing it online from www.nowcosmetics.com.au, which I have found to be a cheaper alternative to buying a lot of high end makeup products, with free (and fast) shipping to Australian customers and cheap shipping elsewhere, I cannot rave highly enough about this website.

Secondly I have been loving my new hair, some of you may have seen pictures of the new cut, well I’ve gone slightly shorter and given it a slightly ombred look for the summer, which I am absolutely loving. Its so light and fresh and I don’t think I ever want long hair again.

To maintain the health of my hair and give it moisture I have using a few different products, which have been amazing. Firstly the macadamia nut deep repair masque is amazing, it leaves my hair feeling soft, moisturized and nourished. This feeling is crucial to anyone who dyes or heat styles their hair. I purchased mine of www.beautybay.com as it was approximately $20 cheaper than in my local stores, and also have free shipping, the site took approximately 2 weeks to ship it to me, which I thought was reasonable considering I didn’t pay the extra $2 for the express dispatch.

I also purchased the travel kit to get a small sample of the leave in conditioner and the oil treatment, both of which have fast become favourites of mine, they leave my hair feeling very detangled and soft, and are the perfect size to throw in my handbag for on the go moisture.

Another Treatment I have been loving is Coconut oil with a tablespoon of olive oil, warmed up slightly, left in overnight and this gives my hair a lovely moisture and nourished look and feel to it, and it is fairly cheap to get the two products from your local supermarket or health foods store.

So I don’t make this post to long and boring, I will split it into two, I will write part 2 of this post in a few days on more makeup and other beauty favourites.
Sorry for my absence I will see you all again soon.
Thankyou for reading and have a fantastic day. xxx
