Lady Jayne Colour Bomb Hair Chalk*

LJ5

Hair chalk is all the rage these days, so when Lady Jayne released their cost effective range of hair chalks, I was thrilled to try them out! Lady Jayne has released four colours in their Colour Bomb range, Mystic Green, Midnight Violet, Rebel Pink and Candy Lady. Being that all four colours are pastel, I was a tad worried they wouldn't show up on my dark brown hair! But, I had my sister over and we had a play with the colours... and here are the results!

LJ1

First up we tried a quick little braid! The ombre look is so popular, particularly with hair chalk, so I wanted to try something a little different! With the applicators (which just clamp your hair with the chalk in between so the colour rubs off) it was pretty easy to apply! However with my darker hair, I did need to reapply a few times over to create a richer look!

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms Review & Swatches

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms Review & Swatches - Sweetaholic Beauty
Revlon has really been hitting it out of the park with their last few releases, with one of their latest releases being the Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms. Australia was lucky enough to receive all 10 of the colours from the collection, which is unusual - but I'm not complaining!

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms Review & Swatches - Sweetaholic Beauty

The Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm colour range is pretty great, and includes all the basic colours you would want from a collection. Much like the original Revlon Colorburst collection, I fell in love with every single colour and just had to have them all!

MK1

A little while ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to the launch of the newest Mary Kay collection; the Fairytale & Fantasy Fall Colour collection. Part of this collection included four Smoke and Shimmer Eye Wands in exciting autumn colours!

MK2

First off, I'm digging the packaging of this collection. A gorgeous deep purple is absolutely perfect for their theme, and makes the collection look so sophisticated!

March Her Fashion Box

HFB1

March of this year marks the one year anniversary of Her Fashion Box! I've now been subscribed to this box for an entire year now, and I couldn't be happier. Unfortunately the March box was delayed a fair bit due to the team at Her Fashion Box moving offices, however I can forgive them as they were constantly updating us on when our box would be posted out, so there was no confusion!


HFB2

As mentioned before, this was the birthday box!

Katy Perry Killer Queen Oh So Sheer *

KQ1

You may remember late last year I was given the opportunity to review the newest fragrance from Katy Perry; Killer Queen. She's already back with another perfume in the Killer Queen range called Oh So Sheer. You can read my review on the original Killer Queen perfume here.

KQ2

I quite liked the original Killer Queen so I had high hopes for Oh So Sheer; which is cased in the same royal look as the previous perfume.

Enbacci Vitis Vinifera 3 Step System *

EN1

A little while ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to the Enbacci Vitis Vinifera 3 Step System launch right here in Melbourne! (You can read all about the event here.) Since then, I've been testing out the products and now I'm ready to share my thoughts!

Before we get into my thoughts, I'd like to talk a little bit about what Vitis Vinifera means! It's not just a fancy name for the product; it's actually the scientific name for grape vines! The key ingredient in the 3 Step System is actually grape stem cells, which have been found to help in the appearance of your skin as well as protection from signs of ageing. I had never heard of grape stem cells being used in skincare before, so this was all new to me! 


EN2

The Enbacci 3 Step System contains three skincare products; a gel cleanser, a toner, and a face cream. At the event we learnt that this is a very family oriented company, and all of the products were only tested on family members to ensure they were suitable for all skin types! As an added bonus, all three products smell amazing!

NYX Center Stage Jumbo Pencil Collection

NYX1

A little while ago, whilst browsing my local Target store, I noticed the glorious NYX stand! I've been really lucky in my local store, as NYX seems to be fairly unpopular, which is a bit unusual as usually the Essence stand is completely destroyed whenever there is a new collection!

Thrilled at the discovery of an untouched stand, I had the entire collection to choose from. I decided on picking up the Center Stage Jumbo Pencil Collection!

NYX2

Electric Blue, Black Bean, Sparkle Nude, Iced Mocha, Yogurt, Milk

The NYX Center Stage Jumbo Pencil Collection includes six jumbo pencils, with majority of them being neutral colours. I already own Milk myself, but it's such a handy pencil that it definitely doesn't hurt to have a back up.

Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick Collection *

I was pretty darn excited when I first heard about the newest Illamasqua collection Glamore! The new collection included the absolutely awesome Shattered Star Nail Varnishes (which I've reviewed here) as well as three new shades of lipstick!

Left to right: Soaked, Luster, Glissade

I'm really impressed with the new colours! I thought my favourite of the bunch would be Soaked, because it's a gorgeous vibrant orange, but I actually found myself truly loving Glissade; a rather bold and deep pink! I found Glissade to be the more wearable of the three, with a very safe for work look, whereas Luster is perfect for a night out on the town!

March Lust Have It!

LHI1

My subscription boxes of late seem to be arriving later and later in the month! My March Lust Have It finally arrived on my doorstep disguised again in normal packaging and without a box at all, so the products were kind of just floating about in a normal parcel. I'm not too concerned about that though, since nothing was broken or leaked!
