Making The Most Of Your Money // The Beauty Points Cards To Know About

LIFESTYLE

If you're as addicted to beauty products as I am, you need to find some way to make yourself feel a little better about your purse emptying purchase, right? So here I have the answer: my favourite loyalty cards to allow you to get a little more bang for your buck…

Spring Trio // Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush Palette

BEAUTY

I was umming and ahhring over this palette for soo long before I finally caved in and got it; even though I own a lot of blushers this was just too beautiful to pass up. The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush Palette was a limited edition trio of ambient lighting blushers in Luminous Flush (a warm rose), Incandescent Electra (a cool peach) and Mood Exposure (a brown plum).

Glossy Lips With A Twist // Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Tint-In-Oil Lip Tint

BEAUTY

I love a new make-up product which is unlike anything I already own, and this my friends is most definitely that! The YSL Volupte Tint-In-Oil Lip Tint comes in lipgloss style packaging (which is beautiful may I add), however this is no mere lipgloss. It's a tint of colour which takes a little while to develop on the lips, encased in the most amazing lip oil, which leaves the lips looking soo glossy and feeling super moisturised. It's not sticky in the slightest, which is my pet hate with some lip glosses, and after the shine has gone, the lips remain tinted with colour for a good long while.

Good Hair Day In a Bottle // Bumble & Bumble, Philip Kingsley + Phyto

BEAUTY

Pheww…these hair care brands definitely love a long name or two for their products! I've been testing out a few different protective, leave-in sprays and loving the effect they have on my hair.

A Lush Trio // Amandopondo Bubble Bar, Tisty Tosty Bath Bomb + Bubblegum Lip Scrub

BEAUTY

I think I'm a little bit Lush obsessed at the moment… although I didn't have to pay for these goodies myself (thank you lovely boyfriend!). I've written about my love for the gorgeous lemony Amandopondo Bubble Bar before on the blog - you can find that post here, however the other two are new additions to my collection.

Deep Cleanse // Aesop Parsley Seed Cleansing Mask

BEAUTY

Aesop is a brand which I've only just realised exists - can you believe it! It's a very popular Australian brand in the beauty blogger world and upon trying it I'm starting to realise why. The Parsley Seed range is one of the most popular and well known lines, and I opted to try out the Parsley Seed Cleansing Masque.

Lush Shampoo Bars // Jason + The Argan Oil + Honey I Washed My Hair

BEAUTY

When I first heard about Shampoo in a solid bar I though hell no! But upon being sucked into the Lush store (the smell can do this to you you know…), taking a look at them on their pretty dishes, and being swayed by the ever so helpful staff, I came away with not one, but two of these beauties. To be fair to myself one was a present for my sister, which she kindly allowed me to photograph and test (secretly hoping she leaves it in the bathroom so I can continue to use it…).
