HOME DECOR

MONDAY morning and I'm so not into being awake today. But I'm up. So I'm into looking at home decor and what I'm loving at the moment is the vintage coral phones.

The Mint or light turquoise with chocolate colour schemes.

Great way to compile ideas is saving a colour scheme page on kaboodle.com

NUDES

I'm just going to compile what I think is the best Nude makeup products that I've come across:

Stilla Kitten eyeshadow
Revlon skin lights Illuminator in peach
Coastal Scents Lip Smacks in Strut on Nude & Oasis
BYS Lip POT FLAVA in Groovy Grape
MAC eyeshadow Naked Lunch, All that Glitters & Grand entrance
Mac Cream Colour Blush in Improper copper & Shell

ALSO:
Kandee has and awsome nude tutorial on youtube. TOO afraid to link it incase I'm not allowed but you can search it with this title:

Avon


I'm wondering as a side note is it just me or is avon totally off on their colours and most if not all products? Too much perfume in the face primer, Mousse bronzer disapears on the skin, so does the so called tinted moisturizer that just makes my face look greazy and dirty. All of their perfumes stink.....Well some are good. But not the regulars. I find it very unreliable. But I still buy it and get given it on mass. Sigh but I use it so I must be ok on some level.

Well if there are any fans out there can you send me some recommendations for nude lip colours for fair skin? cause I keep looking and all the pictures show a definite light twig brown for their "nude". Not pretty. But would love to find a favourite.

Beauty Buys

Being on project 10 pan hasn't stopped me looking at makeup all day....I hope I don't cave! Needing a new cleanser already. Feeling very deprived. And its only been 5 or so hours. LOL

But I will persevere!

Things to think about: Wanting to get Stilla eye shadow in kitten again, Would love to buy Id Bare Minerals in TRUE, Love to buy JLo still perfume ( so Beautiful). I think I will buy these cause I would have saved enough while I wait to finish another 6 Items.

Yes you heard me. I used up 4 Items today in the search for the emptiest of the different kinds of products. I just had been selecting the new item to use everytime I got the latest buzz thing. Thats why this is so healthy. Get back to how it should be. Use one Good product till its gone and get another after you run out! Hopefully....I can......

What was I saying......Oh yeah, my wish list. MAC gel eyeliner is coming with some Mac paint Pots.

Project 10 Pan

Hey I'm going to do the project 10 Pan starting today. Lollipop26 originated it where you use up 10 products completely before you move on to buy another. I'm usually the other way around so I think that this will be hard...BUT good.
(Its not healthy to buy the same colour eyeshadow in all brands when you only need one)

This vow comes after I sorted my makeup collection and noticed that cause I'm reluctant to throw things out I'm sending them expired before I use them. Kinda worrying to see so many products that just take up space. SO time to downsize!! to a healthy 1 makeup bag size. Although I probably need a 20:1 ratio I will just try the 10:1......
I'll let you know how it goes.............

To be Continued

HI! hello there!

Hey! Welcome to my blog. I'm starting a blog in the hopes to collect all of my ideas tips and trick on fashion, beauty & lifestyle CHIC on an AU conversion. Lol.

What do I mean? I live in australia and I'm constantly buying my beauty and fashion items from overseas to get the latest, best and at the cheapest price. And I'm hoping to share and compile so that being Chic will be easier and to show the trends happening now in australia also.

Hope that you enjoy and get something out of it.
