Essence: In the Nude | Review & Swatches


Back in October I reviewed Essence's lip liners, however I hadn't been able to get my hands on the shade 'In the Nude'. I finally managed to grab it during Priceline's Pink Dot Sale (haul here) and am so excited to have it in my collection.

Moving Abroad

I haven't done many personal posts on this blog and today I wanted to give you a little update on my life. As this post goes live I am sitting on a plane. I decided a few months ago that I wanted to move away from home, to see how I go fending for myself and trying to figure out how to be an adult. I visited New Zealand last year (you can see photos from my Wellington trip here) and loved it. While it isn't a far stretch from Australia, I'm not even sure if I should call it moving abroad, it is a huge step for me. I want to experience life as much as I can and build some independence.

Drugstore Beauty Haul

In my last post I shared the clothing items I bought during the sales. Today I'm sharing what I purchased during Priceline's Pink Dot Sale. I had prepared for this sale for a few days prior (making lists of products I wanted to try and the colours I wanted to test). I bought items online if I didn't need to see the colours or had used the product in the past. I went in store for swatching colours or if the item had been sold out online. Here is what I got!

New Year's Resolutions Everyone Should Make

2016 Planner Diary

Happy New Year! Now's the time that everyone starts to make changes in their life. People begin to work on their goals and resolutions. To me, there is a difference between the two. Goals are something you want to complete or achieve. A resolution is the decision to take actions to make your life better. Here are some resolutions everyone can benefit from:
