Beauty Review – Australis eye shadow primer


Hello Dolls

I have just picked this product up and I am quite impressed with it. The product is easy to apply, has no colour when applied and keeps my shadow on all day and I have noticed that my eye shadow is more vibrant. The pink and black packaging on this product is so cute as well.  This product is inexpensive and you can purchase this product from Priceline for $12.95.
This primer is going to be a staple in my collection for a long time!

Please let me know what your favourite eye shadow primer is.

I love a good bargain! - Almay smoky eye kit for brown eyes


Hello Dolls,

Today I was looking around Priceline as I was waiting for them to prepare a script for me. I don’t usually look at the Almay Section as I’m more a Maybelline and Revlon fan but I was curious as to what products they had and to my surprise they had these gorgeous smoky eye kits containing a mascara, eye liner and eye shadow on special now as you can see on the box the kit is valued at $60.85 but they were selling them for $29.95 however lucky for me they were on special for $10.47!

I have never tried Almay products before and will be sure to post a review once I have used these products.

My Holy Grail – Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation



 
Hello Dolls,

I originally bought this product because I was curious after seeing it numerous times in monthly favourites and tutorials. I must say I usually wouldn’t go for this sort of product after having bad experiences with mouse type foundations in the past I have just stuck to liquid products.
The foundation comes in a large glass container I think it looks very nice. It is a medium – full coverage foundation. The thick cream is so easy to build and is not heavy at all I applied it with my real techniques buffing brush and went over with my beauty blender and it gave such nice full coverage but natural finish.

The foundation claims to last up to 24hours however I do not have any need to have make up on my face for that long but found that it lasted all day which is good enough for me.
I do find that Revlon products here in Australia are a lot more expensive than in the States, over here it retails for approximately $34.95 in Priceline however I'm sure that you could find it cheaper online.
I really like this foundation. It looks great and last all day. I would love to know your thoughts or what your Holy Grail Foundation is please comment below.
