NEW Lancôme Miracle Air de Teint.

The most exciting thing since sliced bread for me….. Brand new Lancôme foundation. Let me introduce you to Lancôme Miracle Air de Teint foundation.  I’m crossing every finger and toe on my body that it hit’s our Australian shores very soon.

If you love the cult favourite Teint Miracle, but like me have oily/combo skin and can’t wear Teint Miracle all day and save it only for those special events when all day wear is not required, I think this new Lancôme Miracle Air de Teint is going to answer all our dreams!!!!

Have a read of what Lancôme has to already say about Miracle Air de Teint.

Happy New Year !!!

Happy New Year to all my followers, I know it’s a little late but I’ve been very busy and hard at work/shopping over the holiday period and now that things are all slowly getting back to normal I wanted to give you a little inside look into whats coming up in 2014 on my blog.

So make sure you keep an eye out as i know some of these upcoming post are going to excite a lot of you…

Here’s a look at whats happening…….

Starting my very first YouTube Channel.

MASSIVE Sephora Haul from the USA.

Truck Load of Empties to review. (a few months worth)

Holiday Haul from Bath & Body Works.

Product Empties…

Current Empties.

Hey Everyone,

This time i thought i would share with you my rubbish! In the best possible way with a review of the products i have finished up over the past few weeks. There is some products i purchase over and over again, there is also some new products too.

So from Left to Right in the photo……..

1. Jurlique balancing foaming cleanser, this is a face cleanser i purchase over and over again. It was the first product i ever starting using daily from Jurlique. Its a prefect match for my oily skin and helps maintain and balance the oil while the calendula keeps my skin calm and protected. Would i repurchase: YES

2. Jurlique Lavender  body oil, I received this body oil a long time ago as a gift for my birthday i think. a body oil is something i would never go out and buy, i just dont think about them. So the body oil stayed packed away and i didnt use it for months, until i was going though my mini department store (my walk in wardrobe, seriously it looks like a mini cosmetics store) and i found it again. I started to use it nightly on my arms and legs before bed as at that time i was working very long days and needed help to unwind before bed. It did the trick alright. sent me off to sleep like a baby from the lovely smell of lavender and my body felt so soft and smooth the next morning from using it. I started using it in the bath as well for a little extra treat and keep my body soft and smooth while bathing.

So would i repurchase: NOT SURE, purely cause I’m not a body oil guy, then again i enjoyed using it. so i’m not sure.

3. Clinique moisture surge extended thirst relief, this is a cult product that i got onto during my days working as cabin crew with Qantas. Flying so much around Australia and the world my skin was drying out badly in the cabin. So i tuned into galley FM or galley gossip to ask my fellow crew what moisturiser does everyone use while flying and this one came back with top recommendation.

Now that im no longer flying i don’t get though them as quick as i use to nor do i use it as my daily moisturiser.  I only use this during times my skin calls SOS and needs a big drink of moisture. I buy this cream from Clinique once a year at christmas in a pack. they offer great value for this moisture surge pack, its normally priced at the same price as the moisturiser  itself but comes with extra products like mini eye creams and sprays.

So would i repurchase: ONLY AT CHRISTMAS

4. Philosophy total matteness, OH MY!! i can not rave more highly of this product. I am no stranger to the philosophy product range, i LOVE the shower gels. So when this product came out only a few months ago i had to try it. Always looking for a way to control my oil and large pores.

This product is amazing and works!! it does for me. I use it as a primer under my foundation. Keeps my foundation in place all day and shine free. All of a sudden foundations and BB creams i could no longer wear cause  of being to oily i can now wear and not fear that by lunch time i look like a BP oil rig. I’ve tried matte primers and all, they work well but this product works WONDERS!!!

So would i repurchase: YES.

5. Lancome Advance Genifique, little sample size i was given. Genifique and Visionnaire was my power couple i loved using together over the past few years. This product is marketed as a serum but i have always used this as a pre serum.

I love this product and i saw results with using it when i did. Maybe next time Lancome is in gift with purchase.

So would i buy full size: MAYBE

6. Estee Lauder Advance Night Repair, another little sample sized bottle i was given. Estee lauder has recently upgraded this serum to replace the old advance night repair, this serum works with your skins DNA to help repair and turnover skin cells. They say its like sleep in a bottle for when your skin doesn’t get enough rest. I would have to agree with this statement as i used this sample on a recent world wind trip away with little or no sleep at times, i did notice my skin looked fresh and awake even when i didn’t feel fresh and awake.  So sleep in a bottle? maybe!!!

So would i buy full sized: YES

7. SK-II Facial Treatment essence, once again this is another one of my cult following products when i was flying, use to love buying it duty free as it was cheap in duty free and then crew discount on top of that. I stopped using this product after flying. Has this little sample sparked my long lost love for SK-II again??

Would i repurchase? YES!!!!!!!!!

Well as Porky Pig would say, that’s all folks. I hope you enjoyed my product empties and if you would like to add any of your thoughts on any of these products please do, just leave a comment below.

Have a great day and until next time,

Discover Herbal Recovery today and enjoy a FREE mask.

Good Morning Everyone,

Found a lovely email this morning in my inbox from Jurlique with their latest promotion. Spend $85 or more in one transaction on any products online or at a Jurlique  concept store to receive your choice of a treatment mask as your free gift, valued up to $95. offer valid till 17th September 2013.

With the warmer weather now coming it’s a great time to give your skin a little extra TLC by doing a mask. I like to spoil myself and do a mask once a week to keep my skin happy, healthy and glowing. Also gives me a chance to escape and do a quick mediation.

So it’s a prefect opportunity to stock up on a few Jurlique products and get a free mask. (We all love something free) Of course my recommendation would have to be the Herbal Recovery Antioxidant Gel mask, I’ve been using that mask ever since Jurlique launched it and i love it. It’s prefect for the warmer months as it’s a gel based mask so it feels lovely and cool on your skin.  I aslo like to use cream based masks during the winter months too.

After all this talk about masks, think i might do one tonight now myself.

Do you use a mask ? if so whats your go to mask product that never lets you down? would love to know, let me know in the comments below.

Have a wonderful week everyone…..

Meet Your New Best Friends

Foundation primer lovers the wait is finally over for USA Clinique lovers. I have been wishing and hoping for so many years now that Clinique would release a make up primer.

Clinique foundations where the very first foundation I started using over 10 years ago and it was love at first use. I now own the entire collection of Clinique’s foundations (on top of my already 25 plus foundations, yes i admit I’m a foundation junkie) so I’m very excited to hear this news from Clinique and best of all, not only did they came out with one universal face primer, like everyone else does, but a further five shades to help smooth and correct. Do i need all six shades? NO, but i want them.

Clinique’s Superprimer Face Primers Shades.

If you want to know more or if your lucky to be in the USA check out all the information here from Clinique’s site and purchase before they appear at your local counter.

Now all i have to do, is wait patiently and pray that Clinique releases these Superprimer face primers in Australia ASAP!!!! Clinique Australia i hope your listening..

If anyone has been lucky enough to use these primers yet  or are thinking about getting one please let me know your thoughts, I have high hopes for these primers.

As always you are all beautiful !!

My visit to Jurlique HQ in Sydney concludes the Herbal Recovery Advance Serum trial.

Inside the boardroom where we did the filming. nature+science=beauty

Hey everyone,
You may have seen some of my past blog posts that I was lucky enough to be selected as part of Jurlique’s first-ever global advocacy team.  I was selected to test their latest innovative Herbal Recovery Advance Serum, a natural advancement on their best-selling Herbal Recovery Gel.

The Herbal Recovery is a must have product with a cult following that is loved by thousands of women (and men) worldwide.

The exciting aspect of this trial for me was that there were only 50 pre-launch Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum bottles available globally, and I was selected to be part of this exclusive trial.

Reception area had Jurlique’s range of products on display.

As with any trial, I was sent the product with detailed instructions on how to use it, plus I was tasked to complete weekly surveys to track my progression while testing the product to record results over a four-week period.

What was more exciting was the part that at the end of the trial: Jurlique extended an invitation to those partaking in Sydney to come into their head office and film an interview recapping our experiences using the Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum.

What had me buzzing was that I have never been filmed in front of a camera before, so naturally I was nervous as all hell, yet still really excited. I had no idea what to expect; I kept internalising a series of questions and kept asking myself:

“Do I need to dress up? Should I wear my usual face of makeup? Would I be any good? What happens if they don’t like me?”

As soon as I walked in, all those questions and fears that had been churning in my head disappeared… except for one… “Should I have worn makeup?”…

I can honestly say – “Girl, I haven’t worn makeup in the past 4 weeks because of Jurlique’s Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum. My skin is looking amazing and RUNWAY READY, right out of bed at 6am in the morning.

The team at Jurlique were super nice and absolutely amazing to work with. I had so much fun doing the filming that time flew by and I was done before I knew it. It also got me thinking how much fun it would be to start up my own YouTube channel… Let me know below in the comments box

Jurlique’s product range in the reception area.

I promise to keep you all updated on the upcoming release of Jurlique’s Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum, because you are going to want to try this. I can dead honestly say that you can throw away your other synthetic serums, you are only going to want this natural serum.

Finally I want to thank all my family and friends for their comments on how amazing my skin looks, also the support you have all given me, by posting your questions to me. I promise to answer those who I haven’t directly very soon. Remember to click on my contact link if you have any further questions.

Most of all, I would like to thank Jurlique Australia for this fantastic opportunity to be part of the first ever global advocacy team, I have cherished this opportunity immensely.

I would also like to give a special shout-out to my favourite Jurlique store at Bondi Junction Westfield to Katrina and the team for doing what they do best!

If you are in Sydney go see them!!!!!!

Until next time readers…you are all fabulous!!
