NYX Cosmetics Blogger Meet-Up*

NYX Cosmetics Blogger Meet-Up - Sweetaholic Beauty

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to an event held by NYX Cosmetics in the city. NYX Cosmetics Australia has recently been taken over by the same people who take care of L'Oreal, Maybelline and other big brands - this is exciting news as it means NYX Cosmetics will be easier to get our hands on! 

I didn't get any snaps of the event itself, but I thought I would share the amazing goody bag we received on the night.

Wow - that's a lot of products. We only received one or two items from their new releases, but we did receive some old favourites.

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Sheer and Shine Lipstick Collection Review & Swatches*

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Sheer and Shine Lipstick Collection Review & Swatches - Sweetaholic Beauty

Rimmel London has been pretty awesome with some of their new releases, so when I saw their new lipstick range, I was pretty darn excited. I was lucky enough to receive five out of the six shades of the new Moisture Renew Sheer and Shine Lipstick collection. I loved the collection so much I went out and grabbed the final shade myself. 

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Sheer and Shine Lipstick Collection Review & Swatches - Sweetaholic Beauty

I would describe the new Rimmel London Moisture Renew Sheer and Shine Lipstick (whoa, what a mouthful) as more of a lipstick and lipgloss hybrid. The six shades apply semi-sheer to the lips, but can be built up to almost a full colour of a lipstick.

My Favourite Drugstore Concealers

My Favourite Drugstore Concealers - Sweetaholic Beauty

Personally, I've never been much of a concealer wearer. I would use concealer for when I really want my makeup to look nice - like a formal occasion or special evening. However, I find when I do use concealer, it does make all the difference. Concealer helps to not only cover redness and blemishes but also helps keep my makeup looking flawless all day long.

So, I decided to share my top five drugstore concealers. Some of these were gifted to me, but the majority of them I have purchased myself. 

My Favourite Drugstore Concealers - Sweetaholic Beauty

Since concealer really does have a huge impact on my makeup, I have decided to try wearing it more often for my day to day makeup. I have found so far it really is making a difference. This has prompted me to whip out some of my old drugstore favourites. I don't think I've ever even purchased a high-end concealer, mainly for the fact that I never really wore it often enough.

June Lip Monthly*

June Lip Monthly - Sweetaholic Beauty

Last month, I was incredibly lucky to be contacted by subscription box brand Lip Monthly. They asked if I would like to try out one of their subscription boxes and of course I was excited and had to say yes. I was lucky enough to get another box this month, too, so I thought I would share the contents of the June Box.

June Lip Monthly - Sweetaholic Beauty

For those of you who didn't read last month's post, Lip Monthly is a subscription service that sends you lip products every month. Yup, just lip products. Usually, there is one product each month that is either something different altogether, or a multi-use product, but I'm fine with that myself. The bag itself is absolutely gorgeous too, and a perfect size to reuse later on.

L'Oreal: Winter 2016 New Releases*

L'Oreal: Winter 2016 New Releases - Sweetaholic Beauty

A few weeks ago, I attended a bloggers event for the new L'Oreal 2016 winter releases. It was just a week after the amazing Maybelline 2016 Winter Releases event, so it was a tad overwhelming. Sadly I was still experiencing camera issues, so I haven't got any shots from the event itself, but I thought - like Maybelline - I would give you a run down on some of the products being released. We were graciously given this huge goody bag of products below - so be warned, this post is rather long!

L'Oreal: Winter 2016 New Releases - Sweetaholic Beauty

There were so many new releases from L'Oreal that it would have been impossible for them to give them all to us. However, they did spoil us with some of the feature products, which was very generous of them. Much like the Maybelline post, I haven't done any swatches but I will be doing some specific blog posts for certain products, so if there is anything you'd like to see just let me know in the comments.

L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Dream Team

L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Dream Team - Sweetaholic Beauty

Recently, I was sent a product from the L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil range. I was so in love with the results, that I actually went out and grabbed some more products from the range. I've since tried them all out and safe to say, I'm in love. 

L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Dream Team - Sweetaholic Beauty

At this stage, I've got four products from the L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil range. I have the shampoo, conditioner, leave in cream* and nourishing masque*. This has become my haircare dream team!

The Best Body Butters for Winter

The Best Body Butters for Winter - Sweetaholic Beauty

Now I know I'm not the only one, but my skin tends to get incredibly dry and flaky throughout the winter months. When the temperature drops, I make sure I keep a few body butters handy. There have been a few I keep handy the past few winters, so I thought I would share a few of my favourites.

The Best Body Butters for Winter - Sweetaholic Beauty

I've been using four gorgeous body butters this winter so far. All four are fairly different, and I usually opt for them for different reasons. I have a yummy smelling on, an extremely moisturising one, one for sensitive skin, and a quick absorbing one for when I'm on the go.

Kosmea Certified Organic Rosehip Oil*

Kosmea Certified Organic Rosehip Oil - Sweetaholic Beauty

Last month, I was offered a chance to try out the Kosmea Certified Organic Rosehip Oil for one month. I do love a good rosehip oil, so I decided it would be great fun trialling this one for a month, and then looking back at the results to see whether or not my skin had changed. 

Kosmea Certified Organic Rosehip Oil - Sweetaholic Beauty

I had never tried the Kosmea Certified Organic Rosehip Oil before, but I have tried other brands. For those who don't know, rosehip oil can assist with the appearance of a number of different skin issues, including acne, dryness, pigmentation, wrinkle, stretch marks, scars and more. My main skin concerns are actually uneven skin-tone and redness, so I was interested to see how well this oil would help.

Vacation Dreaming - Products That Remind Me Of Summer

Vacation Dreaming - Products That Remind Me Of Summer - Sweetaholic Beauty

Well, it's only the beginning of winter and it's already so cold and wet that I'm dreaming of summer again. I've noticed a bit of a trend amongst my fellow bloggers - many of them tend to be flying off to warmer places and making me incredibly jealous.

When I received a gorgeous ghd styler* in the post, I was immediately inspired of pearly seashells. This ghd is actually from the new limited edition Azores collection; which is actually inspired by the Azores Islands in Portugal... um, can I visit, please? (Do yourself a favourite and don't Google any images unless you want to start planning a trip!)

Vacation Dreaming - Products That Remind Me Of Summer - Sweetaholic Beauty

Summer is all about the warmth, which usually means you don't want to be doing a lot of makeup and hair styling. Even though I'm not going on a trip (unless I suddenly win the lotto) I still wanted to share a few summer essentials and products that generally remind me of the warmer weather.

June Favourites

June Favourites - Sweetaholic Beauty

I seriously cannot believe yet another month has flown by. I ended up being stuck in bed for two weeks with a very sore back so that has probably helped in making my month feel shorter. I struggled with my favourites a lot this month as I felt like I didn't really try anything different.

Just a few of the products I've been enjoying this month, but these were very obviously favourites of mine.

Two weeks ago, I attended a bloggers event for the new Maybelline 2016 winter releases. It was a pretty exciting evening and we were completely showered with goodies to play with. Unfortunately, I had some camera mishaps, so I didn't get any good shots of the event itself - however I thought I would give you the run down on all the releases we're expecting this year. 

Maybelline: Winter 2016 New Releases - Sweetaholic Beauty

As you can see, we were completely spoiled. I won't be doing full in-depth reviews or swatches in this post, however, I will try to do a few features in future. Let me know in the comments if there is anything you'd like to see reviewed, and I will do my best.

Buckle up - this is going to be a long, picture heavy post.

It's that time again - time for empties. Last month I didn't have a whole lot of empties as I had just moved. This month I think I've used up a few more things. A lot of things were on the verge of being used up last month, and they've sneaked into this month. Either way, a chance to restock.
