This has to be one of my favourite products. A light weight moisturiser that absorbs fairly quickly. There are 2 sorts available 1. Sensitive Skin and 2. Normal and Combination Skin. I use the normal and combination moisturiser. I find that it leaves my skin soft and feeling moisturised, unlike some that I find just cake on, and it has a lovely light rose fragrance. Unfortunately I'm finding it harder and harder to find, which is typical, find a product you like and it disappears. I pay $15.99 a bottle and think it's worth every cent.


I'm very fussy with my make up, partially due to my sensitive skin. I don't wear foundation to often but always like to wear mascara. I don't wear waterproof mascara as I have always been told it damages your eyelashes and I never believe product packaging. I always buy and try, I find this is the best and only way to figure out what is best, if I don't like it I give it to my mum, who happily takes them. I'm always after a mascara that doesn't clump, and washes off easily. Max Factor Masterpiece Max is one of my favourites. I use the black mascara and absolutely love it. I find it doesn't clump unless you use it more then 3 times in a row and washes the majority off with just water, completely off with make up remover and I don't need to scrub at my face to do so.

I've had my mascara since Feburary - yes I know that must be one of the make up sins, but it still applys wonderfully.

I definately reccomend trying Masterpiece Max

Christmas is only 9 weeks and 6 days away :O :O
I have already started to buy christmas presents and wrapping paper. I can't help myself I love christmas!!!!
Well not that anyone reads my blog other then myself, but, I had an idea for one christmas present I couldn't wrap and thought I would post it here.
I was looking at this present trying to figure out how the hell I was going to wrap it. At the same time I saw an empty shoe box amd the idea struck me like a bag of apples. I decided to wrap the shoe box and its lid in christmas paper,placed the item inside and bob's your uncle I have a nicely wrapped christmas present.....in October!!!

Well thats all for now.

YAY!!!!! It only took 2 days for my order to arrive from Victoria!! Unfortunately when I placed my first order I forgot to buy cellogen and needed to place a second order,well any excuse to buy more. The sadest part is I cant start til I have the cellogen and as I am an inpaitient person the waiting is terrible. Not all the items I've ordered are in stock either so it means the wait will be even longer. =(
On another note I am halfway through Uni holidays. It always goes so quick!
It's not long til christmas either and I can't wait. I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!! I mean the presents are ok but for me it's the spirit and the tree and buying presents for others. I enjoy it all so much.
Well off to do some work. =)

On the weekend I visited Boyfriends family. After speaking to his sister, I found out she is learning how to make sugar flowers and offered to show me how to make some. I enjoyed it that much that I am now looking into it myself. I have found a website and bought some basic items to make a birthday cake for my grandma. I still have about a month to go before her birthday so I can get some practise in before then. But hopefully things go well. =)

Well today I bought Revlon Beyond Natural Foundation in Light 210.

The claim is the foundation starts out white and as you blend it in, it will transform to match your exact skin tone.

Now this is my opinion so I can't say it's 100% accurate but in squeezing out some foundation I noticed little dark dots-microbeads. These beads are what contain the coulour so blending them bursts the microbeads and releases the colour.

Does it match your skin tone perfectly? No not completely, but I must say it is almost perfect.I have olive undertones, but am pale at the moment as we are just coming out of winter. I used 210 light on my skin, and as said before it is almost a perfect match.

As for coverage it is not the best. Once on I found the foundation light weight and matte. After almost 5 hours I needed to add a little powder to control the shine. I have oily,combination skin so this would be why.If you are after a light weight,light coverage foundation just to even out your skintone I would definately reccomend this. I paid $29.95 and will be using again.

On a slightly different note I have extremely sensitive skin, not to the elements outside, but chemicals in products. I have had this foundation on all day and have not reacted at all. I say this just in case there are others out there like me and are not sure wether to buy this product due to this reason.

First off I would like to thank http://btemplates.com for my template =)

I never know what to write in these situations. What do you put in a blog? Well as I often buy products and see movies I didn't think it would hurt to give my personal thoughts/ review on such items.

Someone may or may not find this useful, but I know I often like to hear others thoughts on products, as this is often the best way to get a real view of what the product is like.

Also as I constantly contend with my anxiety and depression, I may express how I am feeling or some of the issues I face as a result.

Anyway I'm pretty pleased with my first post.
Hopefully there will be plenty more to come. =)
