Spring is the perfect time to revamp some of your makeup bag and start showing some more skin! Here are some of my favourite products for Spring, which will keep you well prepared for the sunny days ahead! Body Scrub, my pick: Pure Fiji Coconut Sugar Rub in Starfruit. Everyone needs a good ‘ol scrubbing after winter! Scrubbing off all the layered up dead skin cells will not only increase circulation to your skin, making it look better and firmer, but it will allow any moistur

Hi Beauties! So it looks like the sunshine has arrived in Sydney (we are currently experiencing a ‘little’ heatwave haha)! Today it is currently 40 degrees where I am (that’s about 104 Fahrenheit I believe), so I am feeling a little pasty since technically the summer season hasn’t even begun and the sun is upon us in it’s full glory! Luckily for me, Jurlique have just released a new sunless tanner as part of their new Sun Specialist range. For me tanners should ‘undetectable’

Great style is about being fearless! That my beauties, is a beauty and style motto to live by! When the weather starts to warm up, it’s about bringing fun, light and colour to your gorgeous face. There’s something tropical about corals and orange-reds, maybe because these are colours associated with the sun, flustered cheeks, burnt earth, sand and fruits? The contrast and pop of colour they provide on a backdrop of bronzed or highlighted skin is gorgeous <3 Bronzed/illuminate

Today on the blush carousel we have a MAC blush in the colour of grape fairy floss <3 I don’t have to many MAC blushes, but when I do buy a MAC blush, I tend to go for the more unusual colours. I was expecting Full of Joy to be a pinky-lilac satin blush – a little different but not majorly so. It turns out it is a frost finish and much more lilac-y than I expected. In saying this, it’s surprisingly wearable. When I say it’s a frost finish – it doesn’t actually have any chunky

I found this nail polish at the chemist for half price! As OPI isn’t the cheapest here in Aus, I mentioned the sale in a post (you can see that post here – I also posted up a link to a cheap but trusted ebay store stocking OPI). Up Front & Personal is the perfect polish if you are looking for grown up ‘glitter’ or a subtle metallic finish. The sparkles/flecks in this polish are very fine and depending what light you are in, the colour changes from a more silvery beige to a li

I felt like some sunny spring like nails today! I bought one of these nail caviar kits out of curiosity when they first hit the stores a few months ago. And I must admit, that in moderation (as in, I wouldn’t necessarily cover every nail in the caviar beads lol) I love the effect they give. The ‘caviar’ beads are really tiny glass beads, which you can buy in different colour combinations. The beads come in a ‘kit’ with a regular nail colour polish to match. How does it work?

It’s not exactly Spring anymore when you hit two 40 degree days(I believe thats 104 fahrenheit if I’m correct) in October! So bright Summery nails it is! I looove this fuchsia colour from Avon. Not only is it gorgeous and bright, it’s got more ‘depth’ to it thanks to blue micro glitter. You can’t see the blue shimmer on your nails, however you can see it in the bottle if you hold it on an angle.  Avon nail polishes are awesome, they dry very quickly, last a good amount of day

Two things I wanted to share with you today beauty bees! Number one being that I found an awesome deal at my local chemist (OZE Pharmacy here in Sydney). They had a ‘bargain bin’ sale full of OPI nail polishes going for half price (they usually retail for $19.95 or something) so thats $10 bucks each! Now, they didn’t have every single colour available, but the range wasn’t to shabby either. I picked up one of my all time favourite neutral shades – Samoan Sand which I also bel

There’s just something about Peonies… And the colours! I’d like to see them growing in the wild or at least in someones garden! And Retro Glam  🙂 Beauty Bee~ Please follow and like us: #Inspiration #Retro #Peonies #Glam #Flowers #Spring #Summer

It was another GORGEOUS day in Sydney, and with Spring just around the corner everything is starting to bloom! I took some more garden shots for you to see 🙂 While the days are super sunny and a comfortable 23 degrees, the mornings and evenings are still pretty chilly, so I make sure I have my super wamr and cosy Ugg boots! 😀 I only wear these at home as I grew up seeing them as extra awesome slippers! Makes the mornings a little warmer… My beagle doesn’t seem to want to ge

It was finally super sunny in Sydney! The sun was out, there was a super blue sky and it felt like spring was on its way 🙂 Here are some snapshots from my garden 🙂 The third photo is of Jasmine flowers. They haven’t all started to bloom yet, but they are getting there slowly! They remind me of my school days, when in the mornings on my way to school I had to walk past our big gum tree (eucalyptus tree) in the front yard. The Jasmine flowers were growing up the tree and the
