First beauty/make up haul! (Chemist Warehouse)

Hi!
It's been so long...but I'm alive and well =)
Chemist Warehouse is currently having 50% off cosmetics from Rimmel, Maybelline, Sally Hansen and Revlon. During these sales I usually gravitate towards all of the nail polishes but for some reason I have recently been obsessed with lipsticks.
Here are the things that I ended up purchasing =) (And this is definitely not sponsored btw!)

I definitely wanted to pick up a concealer because I have really bad dark circles. After reading many good reviews I decided to buy the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser. I ended up picking out 2 of the 3 colours that were available: 110 fair/clair and 120 light/pale.
110 fair/clair has a pink undertone that is slightly lighter than my skin colour so I thought it would be good for highlighting but also for covering dark circles. 120 light/pale has a yellow undertone which is closer to my skin colour but slightly darker. This product has medium coverage (but buildable) and although it didn't completely cover my dark circles, it definitely made me look more awake than I ever have!
This is what they look like blended out:

I've also heard some really good things about the Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder so I decided to try it out. I picked out the colour 04 Sandstorm. ($6.48)

Next is the lipstick craze hehe. From left to right:
- Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick in 530 Fatal Red ($8.48)
  This is a true red which is very buildable. The formula is moisturising but has a short lasting power.
- Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in 150 Piccadilly Pink ($6.98)
  This lipstick is very moisturising and feels very nice on the lips. It is a very wearable baby pink colour with a slight
  purple undertone. This one is my favourite out of the bunch =)
- Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in 423 Pink Velvet ($10.98)
  This lipstick is pretty moisturising as well and is a fun pink colour that would be perfect for evenings out =)
- Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in the colour 05 ($5.98)
  This colour is similar to Piccadilly Pink but is much more bright and not as moisturising.
- Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in 077 Asia ($4.98)
  Out of all of the lipsticks, this colour is the most natural. When put on my lips, it looks like my lip colour but better.
  It is the perfect everyday lipstick. However the formula is a little drying, although I can't really complain because of   the price!

On Instagram, I saw a girl with this nail polish and it looked really pretty. It's the Rimmel Nail Enamel Rita Ora 60 seconds in the colour 573 Breakfast in Bed which is a really nice mint green colour (although it looks more blue in the photo).

Last but not least is the Maybelline Eyestudio Master Sleek Brow Mascara in the colour Dark Brown. ($6.48) Again, I saw this product all over Instagram so I thought that I would give it a go. I've already used it and I really like it! I have naturally thick eyebrows but this product helps them stay in place. The slight tint also gives them a natural look. However if you have really light eyebrows you will probably need to fill them in before using this product.

So those are all of the products that I bought. I definitely bought more things than I had intended to but I'm really excited to start using them! If you have any product recommendations please let me know as I am quite a newbie in this department aha..
The sale ends on the 28th of September so you can still pick these items at the prices I listed if you're interested =)

Also don't forget to check out my Instagram here to see my daily outfit posts for #thehundredproject (which I have almost completed!) and other random pictures =)

I cannot believe that it's already November, Christmas is next month!

Collective Haul: Dotti, Trade Secret, Valleygirl, Sportsgirl, Quirky Circus, Zara

Hi! I'm back with another haul...this time a collective haul =)

Firstly, I wanted to share my purchases from Trade Secret. If you're not familiar with this store, it's basically a store that sells a lot of branded goods for a much lower price. The store itself reminds me of Kmart/Target due to their red and white logo and brightly lit store BUT it is 100x better! They sell clothing, accessories, beauty items (like OPI nail polish!) home goods and branded handbags including Micheal Kors and Versace!
Anyways, you may have seen this picture floating on my instagram here but I thought that I would give the details in this post.

Dress Haul: Quirky Circus, Somedays Lovin, Motel Rocks, Dotti, Ally

Hi there =)
It's been a few months since I last hauled any clothing item and I've definitely been shopping quite a bit especially during the end of financial year sales!

So today I will be sharing a few dresses that I have purchased over the last few months. I know that it's Winter here in Australia but I'm definitely a sucker for dresses. All of the dresses I bought were on sale so I thought I might as well buy them while they were cheap! So here are all the dresses I purchased (in no particular order):

Winter boots haul: Winterworth, Zara, Wanted Shoes

The weather in Sydney has really started to drop in temperature lately and I've already found myself reaching for my Winter coats! The rain has really started to hit us here but of course today, the day I'm stuck inside, the sun has decided to come out and greet me through my window. Nonetheless, I thought it was appropriate to stock up on some boots to prepare me for the coming Winter season =)
(or maybe that was just an excuse to buy some boots xD)

In the past few weeks I bought a few pairs of boots so I thought I would show you guys in case you were looking for some nice boots hehe:

Hi there =)
So I'm sure many of you guys know about the crazy post-Christmas sales...

I know some people hate going shopping after Christmas but it is honestly worth it (in my opinion) because you save so much money! (Yes, I'm quite the stingy one...)
I managed to purchase 3 pairs of jeans and 2 pairs of shorts over 3 shopping trips:
