Mini Skincare Haul...

I stumbled on the Priceline two day 40% off skincare offer by chance last week and, lets face it, who was I to resist??



Biore warming anti-blackhead cleanser - I was about ready for a new cleanser of the 'face wash' variety, as I'm not a huge fan of cream cleansers that you take off with cotton wool - I never feel completely clean!  This one is oil free (perfect) and complexion clearing (even better as I've had a few pesky spots crop up recently). $12.99 before offer, $7.79 after offer. 

Sukin hydrating mist toner - I was missing a toner from my routine since I came back to Australia and hadn't really noticed much of a difference in my skin, but I do love something refreshing to spritz on after cleansing or throughout the day to freshen up so this was perfect....all natural too! $9.99 before offer, $6 after offer. 

Skin Doctors No More Pores night treatment - This was the random splurge of the day, I was in no way in need of another night cream of any sort but anything that claims to calm down my pores and remove excess oil is a winner in my books. $29.99 before offer, $17.99 after offer. 

Hydraluron Moisture Booster - I'd ran out of my serum last week and had heard every blogger and her mother raving about this so after a lot of careful research and consideration decided I would splash out and get it. Finding out it was 40% off made my heart do a little skip of joy. $34.99 before offer, $20.99 after offer. 

I can't wait to try some of these out and I'll let you know how I found them!

Review - Revlon Colour Stay Ultimate Suede lip colours....

Finally, something we have in Australia before the English (I think)!! There's been some real hype around these new products from Revlon and, as I'm not only a lipstick addict but also one of Revlons biggest fan's, I picked one up to see what they were all about. Revlon describes them as

'a soft formula with moisturizing shea butter and aloe is food proof and doesn’t quit'

I bought the colour Finale, a bright pinky red shade; with names like Private Viewing, It Girl and High Heels, it was hard to choose!

Anyone who thinks these will be like the lip butters will be disappointed, as there's absolutely no moisturisation in these at all (in my opinion). When first applied, they glide on smoothly, don't slip and slide on the lips, and give a nice and even, strong colour pay off. After a few minutes, as I've read in most reviews, this sheen dries and the colour becomes mat with a strange sticky feeling but I've managed to get past that. The colour has some serious staying power. While I've been writing this I've worked my way through a cup of tea and, whilst there is some evidence of the product on the mug, it hasn't seemed to budge from my lips. This probably needs a longer trial than one brew to see the real results but, overall, I'm a fan. Colour, durability, packaging, colour range, and ease of applying this product all get a nice big thumbs up from me. 

Anyone else tried these lip products from Revlon yet? Maybe some colours seem to be better than others but I only really seem to find bad reviews!!
