Lipsticks Of The Week


Hello everybody!

Again, i'd just like to apologise for my lack of posting but i am slowly getting back on track.

So, today's post is my lipsticks of the week! And yes, week. I have literally been rotating through each lipstick for the last couple of weeks and i can not get enough of them.

As you can see, they are mainly drugstore/Priceline bought, except for the Lipstick Queen which was a little more pricey.

Moving left to right:
L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche 374 Intense Plum 
I absolutely love this colour and texture. As the cover suggests it is best suited to Brunettes and it does bring out my darker features. With the plum base i do have to be a bit selective with what outfit i match it with.

Maybelline New York ColourSensation 602 Beige Rose 
This is such a natural and shiny addition to the natural colour of my lips. I generally pop it on when my outfit is casual and it has been a major pick me up when my hair isn't cooperating, which does happen oftern.

Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate 07 
The best nude colour in my collection. Period. It is so beautiful, last's all day with only a few touch ups and it complements my olive skin tone perfectly. The colour is a lot more intense then the Maybelline nude and has more of a pink undertone.

Lipstick Queen by Poppy Wine Sinner 
My favourite colour for the evening! It is more of a matte shade but it doesn't dry out my lips which is exactly what you want and because it is more of a red base it tends to match with a lot of my outfits.

Alison Wonderland Review

Lately, i have been in love with an Australian DJ, Alison Wonderland. After some serious stalking of her social sites i found that she was playing at Billboards in Melbourne CBD and instantly my girlfriends and I bought tickets. 

I know i have previously posted about my love of the city but it was an amazing night. Drinking at the Asian Beet Cafe walking to the club, catching the wrong tram, dancing till my feet were in so much pain i collapsed and getting McDonalds on the way home. 

I can admit that Alisons music is not for everyone and some of her songs dont appeal to me. However, the atmosphere and hard hitting dirty beats absolutely engulf you. She remixs the old school tunes and get the room jumping with bass hitting through your chest with songs like 'do you like drugs?' and 'i want u'. 

Definately check her sound cloud, highly recommended.

But first coffee

My life has literally been a rollercoster.

I have been so busy, so stressed and so sore that life has been a totally drag. I havent made time for anything that I love, so i will be making a few medical appointments to clear everything up and get myself better. 

Coffee has been my life line to get through everything! I am in love with an Organic Decaf that use for coffee at home but when im out a cap is the way.
