I’ve been interested in trying Ethique for a while so when Electric Collective reached out and offered to send me a couple of items to try I was really excited. I had previously looked at their range and they didn’t have as many unscented options as they do now. I’m so impressed with how committed…

Mecret Water Based Nail Polish Review
I went throught a makeup phase, a skincare phase and now I’m going through a nail polish one. I have been really enjoying having my nails painted again after so long. I used to do it once a week when I was younger, so it’s actually really satisfying to be able to do it again!…
Kjaer Weis Review
Over the years I seem to keep coming back to one of my favourite brands: Kjaer Weis. I really like many of their shades and that they are refillable. They’ve even released their iconic red packaging as refillable, which is a great option for lighter travel. I like to keep an eye on all their…
Laurel & Reed Clean Skincare Subscription Box – Okoko Cosmétiques
It’s been a busy few weeks, so I haven’t been able to blog as much as I’d like, so I thought I’d quickly post about a new Beauty Subscription box I discovered. As always, I’m late to the party but it’s such a good one, I had to share it. Laurel and Reed offer a…
Biologi Skincare Review – BM, BD, B4 & BF
Biologi are an Australian brand committed to providing pure active plant phtyo-nutrients in serum form. They’re well known for offering a potent single plant extract per serum, focusing on Australian natives, such as mountain pepper berry, kakadu plum and finger lime. I have been converted to the wonders of a good water based serum and…
Fitglow Beauty Review – Vita Set Setting Powder, Night Lip Serum, Brow Gel & Eyeliner
Fitglow are one of the brands I tend to keep my eyes one, mostly because I’ve heard so much hype over their Lip Serums and they release new products quite often. Their makeup range is often packed full with skincare ingredients designed to protect, nourish and improve skin. I picked up a few of their…
Wotnot Naturals BB Cream + Mineral Makeup Review & Swatches – Light-Med
I’m still testing out sunscreens to find the best one for my oily skin. This time I tried the 40 SPF BB cream from Wotnot Naturals, an Australian brand that actually started by creating an environmentally friendly disposable nappy. Since then they’ve also worked at providing effective and natural sunscreen options for the whole family….
Rae Morris Jishaku Brushes Review
I have long admired many makeup brushes from a far. I have found some that look so perfect I’d never want to use them in fear of damaging them. I’m still figuring out which ones are best not just for function but also aesthetics. I have used the Artis brushes for quite a few years…
Crop Natural Bio Metal Eyeshadow Review & Swatches – Moonlight, Gilded, Saturn & Halo
After trying the liquid eyeshadows from Kosas, I found myself really wanting some more. I stumbled upon these Bio Metal eyeshadows from Crop Natural a while ago, but it wasn’t until this year that I took the plunge. The Bio Metal eyeshadows are described an an ultra-saturated, metal finish liquid eyeshadow without the creasing and…
Lashify Review
Despite my love of makeup, I have never dabbled with false lashes. I wanted them for my wedding because I find most mascaras smudge by the end of the day and I was positive I was going to cry. I knew I would have to compromise a little in terms of using some harsher chemicals…
