Cozzette Vessels :)

As a newbie to the make up idustry, I love buying new things to help me keep my kit in a nice clean tidy order. So yes, I get very excited when I find items that fix HUGE problems that I come across!

And yes, The Cozzette Vessel was/is one of those huge problematic correctors! (made those words up!)

Something I hate more than anything, is leaving things in packets. Like disposable mascara wands and sponges. I just hate it!! Makes my kit look messy! I like things to co-ordinate and look professional, so that people that see my kit, like visitors in my TAFE course dont think, OMG why so much plastic? If she lives messy, does she work messy? A messy appearance can also add the element of thinking everything is dirty! Am I right?

So in all honesty, Cozzete keeps everything uniform and in order! Which keeps me working efficiently and keeps my clients and friends thinking postive towards me =)

Another HUGE pet hate of mine is putting dirty brushes back into my tool belt of brush wrap, for when I take them home to clean them. And then I forget which ones I have used, so I end up cleaning them all! So I have my work area set up, so that I use a brush from my belt, and it goes straight to my cozzette, either to be sanitized and used on the next customer, or taken home to be cleaned. It saved time, and once again keeps my tools looking clean so that I dont get those ghastly foundation, lipstick, blush etc. stains on my brush wraps!

Honestly, I cant think of any bad points about the cozette, except for running the risk of ruining bristles on a make up brush if you choose the wrong size cozzette to store them in.

The semi-transparent design is cute, and the cute colour of purple it comes in, makes it even better!

You can even store loose powders in them =)

Or lipsticks you mixed and want to put in a pod later on.

There are numerous possibilities when it comes to the cozzette.

Jill Stuart

Weird enough as it is.. I came across this brand while doing homework for my Visual Communication Class, and even weirder is I found it on another persons blog. !!

After seeing a little clip of the brand, I decided to investigate.

And it was actually hard for me to find the store, because half of them came up in Chinese!

But I found it on an Australian online store:

I hope that this satisifies your need for cute cosmetics :3 xo





Macaroons :)

So..

Every single day, I hvae a new obsession for something different.

today homever, it isn't make up.

It's Macaroons!

I've wanted to know how to make these beauties for a very long time, but infact didn't know how to.

But I took a Google search, and came across an amazing blog by someone named Dima!

She is so fantastic at what she does.

Which is why I am going to refer you to her blog :)

Get cooking, just like I am, and have fun :)

I want to know before I get one haha

And for those that are reading this, and thinking you may try it too!

Then you can pick then up on Tanty Cosmetics @

http://tantycosmetics.com.au/product/lips/herbal-lip-balm/

The original price is $12.50, but they are currently $9.00 :)

Blush Brushes :)

Today I have been looking for a new Blush Brush, and as you may have read in my previous post, I ended up purchasing a whole set from Furless cosmetics!! haha

But on my internet travels, I did come across a few coolies that I found so interesting and I wanted to share them with you, just because they are THAT cool =)

This is the Furless Mad Blush Brush

It's $9.95 @ Furless Cosmetics

I loved this because of the coloured tip :)

Coloured brushes have been becoming popular, so I found this a must for the average woman =)

I have had a widdle bit of an obsession with Fan brushes lately, just because they are interesting hehe

But this is the Punk Pink Large Fan Brush which is $12.95 @ Furless Cosmetics

Love it !!

This is a Pink Handles face brush for $11.00 @ Crown Brush

and last but not least, the Napoleon Perdis Blush Brush.

only $35.00 @ Napoleon Perdis

10 Piece Bamboo Make Up Brush Set

Once again, I am posting aboout one of my very favourite Ausrtralian brands

Furless Make Up Brushes and Cosmetics!

I was taking a cruise around their site at the make up brushes, I was only looking for a blush brush, but found a set instead... Aren't I naughty hehe!

But this is it...

I love it! But since I love to blabber on, I'm going to tell you why I love it!

As you may have seen in previous posts, I fell in love with this brand because they revolve around bringing high quality, vegan and cruelty free products to the public.

Which is so uncommon in the make up industry.

What is meant by Vegan and Cruelty free, is that no animals have been exploited during the process of the products being tested, created and in advertising.

Like the brushes above.

The handles are made from Bamboo, The wrap is environmentally friendly because it's made from Hemp, and animal hair isnt used to make the bristles because they are synthetic!

Isn't that a big bonus for brushes that only cost $34.95 @ Furless Online ??

In the above set, it includes:

Powder Brush

Blush Brush

Large Angled Liquid/Cream/Concealer Brush

Small Foundation/Concealer Brush

Eyeshadow/Concealer Brush

Small Angled Eyeliner/Brow Brush

Bullet/Crease/Pencil Brush

Lip Brush

Get onto this brand ladies. It is so world friendly.



GLO Mineral Lid Primer + A Bit About Primers.

Many ask the question, what is lid primer and what does it do!

But honestly, don't be ashamed because I honestly didn't know what it was until around September last year! So please don't feel stupid!

Have you ever put a really nice eyeshadow on and it wears of within two hours, or it starts to fill in the little line in your eyelid, and it looks all gross and veiny?

Well this is what primer was made to prevent.

Most are silicone based (yes the same stuff that is used to seal gutters and even goes around the bottom of your toilet!) because silicones traits are perfect for filling in those little lines, and also helps your make up to stay on longer because of the sticky feel to it.

If you ever go into priceline, have a go on the tester of the Models Prefer silicone primer between your fingers. It is slippery, which is perfect for blending, but has a slight stick which is perfect for achieving the 24hour lasting make up that your product claims it achieves! but really, it doesn't!!

They are clear in colour, which is great for not "messing" with the hue of your sexy foundation.

The above picture is of Glo minerals lid primer. Used on the eyelids clearly. Apply from lash line up to brow. I reccommend to use a concealer or any small flat brush. Concealer would be best =)

I hope this helps you to understand a little bit more about Primers.

My New Make Up Love

Hey Everyone!

So here I am brigning you one of my new make up loves!

It was love at first site :)

I ordered it today, but I was so excited that I just had to show you it now :):):)

It is a few blushes by a brand called Tarte. Which uses natural products!

This is overall one of the best products I have seen in a long shot!

They are shimmer blushes that have 12hour colour (not too sure on the one yet haha)

But you can get them for the amazing price of $25 @ Tarte - Amazon Clay 12-Hour Shimmer Blush

This one is Glisten !!

This one is Adored

This one is Buff

And last but not least, this one is Frisky :)

Here is a little "clip" from the Tarte site :) !!

Infused with Amazonian clay harvested from the banks of the Amazon River and naturally baked by the sun, this skin-intuitive blush universally benefits all skin types for a fade-free, flawless finish that lasts up to 12 hours. Oily skin? Amazonian clay minimizes oil in and around pores to balance skin and keep product in place. Dry skin? This nourishing clay hydrates skin naturally to restore moisture. Combination skin? Amazonian clay will intuitively identify your skin concerns and deliver benefits to restore harmony.
The result: blush that wears better, longer and truer!

available in four shimmering shades: adored (shimmering light pink), glisten (shimmering peachy pink),
frisky (shimmering bright coral), and buff (shimmering nude)

I love this brand, and I can't wait to recieve mine in the mail :):):)
