My Christmas Presents;
Esteé Lauder Colour Portfolio This was a real surprise gift from my mum. She knows how much I love beauty products and this has just about everything I need. This has 30 Eyeshadows, 3 Blushes, 15 lip colours, a double eyeliner, 2 lip glosses and even a bronzer! It comes in a cute fold up palette which is super handy to carry around to ether make-up jobs or even just sleepovers. I haven't used this at all yet but I am super keen to as soon as possible. I already own a Esteé Lauder eyeshadow duo in 'Raisins' and it defiantly lives up to its expectations so this will just extend my collection.
Cotton On Bat-winged Cardigan This is one of those great cardigans which you can't really walk past without buying it. You can wear in summer with shorts or leggings and it is super light-weight so it wont make you feel hot and sweaty which is what I love about it. (And also when something is the last one, it makes you love it just about 10 times more!)
Target Maxi Skirt & Valleygirl Singlet
Coming up to summer I really thought I needed a new outfit, and this is what I decided to start wearing again.. Maxi Skirts! (Of course I had to go with my mum to hint to her that this was what I wanted for Christmas.) The skirt is super soft and silky which I absolutely love and I think it is a perfect material for summer!
Other Christmas Gifts;
The AFL Membership which I received from my Dad is for the Richmond Football Club. I just got a basic 11 Home Game Pass which is all I really needed considering I will have heaps of homework this year and that I work as well on the weekends. I also got a $100 Gift card.(Which I spend on Boxing Day) And also my Kikki K Diary. It is the same one which I had last year and absolutely loved. It's the perfect size for me to carry around at school and to write all my homework in.
Boxing Day Bargains!
So yesterday I was a little bit naughty and headed down to the shops to see what bargains I could pick up. And of course the first store I headed to was Lush...
1. Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic
2. Flying Fox Shower Gel 100g
3. Magic Wand Bubble Bar
4. Cinders Bath Ballistic
5. Buttercup Gift Set
6. Luxury Pud Bath Ballistic
All of these Lush items were 50% off, how exciting! The only bad side is that as soon as I finish these products, (Except Flying Fox) I will not be able to buy them again until next December!
1. What lead me to this bath ballistic at first was it's bright golden colour. It also says that it has gold stars inside which burst out into the bath and actually turns the water blue.(Which is funny because you kind of expect the water to become a yellow/golden colour. It's quite hard to describe this certain smell but it defiantly uplifting and just makes you want to smell it again and again!
2. I have never tried a Lush shower gel before so that's why I thought I'd give this one a go, and it was half price. But I only got a little bottle just in case I didn't quite like it. The smell is a mixture of jasmine and honey which sounds kind of sticky. But I hope this works well!
3. When I heard about this bubble bar it sounded like a great idea that it can last up to ten bubble baths! Since it was getting quite annoying using a full bath ballistic for only one bath, which can add up over time and can seem as almost a waste. All you have to do is swish it around in the water holding the stick to create bubbles and you don't even have to get you hands wet if you aren't ready to hop into the bath just yet. It has a sweet vanilla scent which even may have a hint of the smell of flowers to it.
4. This bath ballistic I actually heard about while watching a Youtube video and I thought that since it was half price I might as well try it out. It is topped with popping candy which gives it that crackling open fire effect to it while also smelling of cinnamon. I imagine that this would turn the water yellow, but I could be completely wrong!
5. This gift set is actually something that I am going to give to one of my friends for her birthday next month. It has a 100g 'Honey I washed the kids soap' and a Butterball bath ballistic all wrapped up in a cute box.
6. This is another bath ballistic which I heard about on Youtube. It turns the water multi-coloured while smelling sweet and calming. Which apparently sounds perfect just before bed.
Now that I think about it maybe I should of brought more Lush products since they were so cheap! But I'm going back in a few days with a friend, so I may come back with a few more things than I expected.
This plain white t-shirt from Bardot was just something that I thought could go with almost anything. Since it's summer here in Australia I thought that this would be a great thing to have to wear with skirts and shorts, casual or even a bit more formal. And a new handbag was not something I was expecting to walk away with yesterday. But since it was 50% off and it was a style I have had my eye on for a while, I just decided to go for it. It is just the perfect size for me since all the others I had been looking at were just too big! It has all the pockets I need without over doing it. (Phone, keys, small and big zip pockets) Maybe even in a few weeks after I have tested it out a few times I might post a 'What's In My Bag?'
I'll start on what this product actually is for those who haven't heard of it before. It is a skin cleanser as well as a make-up remover. I have heard some great things about this product and I can't wait to try it out for myself. The only bad side about this product is that it isn't super cheap. But lucky for me I got it when Priceline was having a big 40% off all skincare products!
Harrison's School Shoes (T-Bars)
These truly do have nothing to do with beauty or lifestyle but I thought I'd throw them into the mix anyway! My other school shoes were getting really old(and holey!), so it was time for some new good ones to last me.
Wow it actually took me longer than I thought to write all that up! I hope you enjoyed this post and that you all had a fabulous Christmas day filled with family, friends.. and presents! And I hope you all have a great New Year and that you remember, a new year means a new fresh start! Xx
