Colour me in: White! - NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk

This Colour Me In series is a collection of posts where your beloved bloggers, Tram, Amanda, Tezza and myself will be posting about the selected shade from whatever we're able to gather from our beauty stash!
Hello my loves! When I had first gotten into makeup, NYX was the most amazing brand in the world to me. NYX this, that, EVERYTHING. I am now sitting with a bunch of lipsticks in my box of lipsticks I don't use anymore....

Well, one of my favourite NYX product (out of the many I've purchased...) is this Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk

I use this product whenever I want to go for a bold look. I often forget about it, I should give it more love. I've used it for my Nicki Minaj and Creepy Doll inspired look.

Swatches

I chose a bright hot pink from my Manly palette of course!

Colour Me In: Black! My (once) HG Liquid Liner - Revlon Colorstay

What I find odd is that I haven’t blogged about a majority of the beauty products that I use most! One liquid liner that I’ve used since the day I discovered how to wing the perfect eyeline is this- Revlon's colourstay in blackest black.

I've repurchased this fella 3 times and it's sister, the pen liner once. Until I found s
omething even better.... (Will post about it soon hehe)


My ideal liquid liner tip :'). The key to smooth, straight lines.
h
Swaaatch time!
Two strokes, applied and dried.
Abit of drizzle under water and wiped lightly. 

This product is absolutely not waterproof. Don't expect of to be.. (Im on my phone blogging since my laptop died... if my laptop wasn't dead, I would link you to a picture of me being the aftermath of bawling my eyes out while wearing this liquid liner... not a pretty sight... nor was it a pretty morning) 

What I loved: 
- Super black! Pigmented 
- Lasts all day if you learn not to rub your eyes 
- Get the hang of the brush and I guarantee you, perfect application every time! 

Ehhhh.... 
- Oh only if it was waterproof... 

Pricing and Available at:
I see them for the markets at the cheapest, $10. I'm not sure how much retail price is but I'm sure it's much more than $15!

Well that was me sharing my (once) HG liquid liner to you 
Now hop onto the other girls posts , (refer to previous posts with links to their site hehehehe) 
Ill fix this post up tomorrow once I get my charger back.

Australis' Lash Length Extension Mascara Review

HI!
I hope you've all been well............
My gosh. It's been far too long... I haven't had internet for over two months and have moved houses and had internet installed a few days ago *phew.

Okay well, being a typical asian girl.... I have... absoluuuteely non-existent eyelashes. One of the first things that I always notice about people are their eyelashes.............. being a creep always admiring and complimenting how amazing their eyelashes are. It's so sad that mine are short, stubby and you can't do anything with it! 

I have always found mascara to be a pain to use! On many occasions when I use to wear mascara in the past - I'd stroke the mascara on my teensy lashes, put on my glasses to find out that the mascara hasn't tried yet and it has streaked all over my lenses...

Oh and I can't ever forget always getting home at the end of the day and looking in the mirror and seeing black smears around my eyes either because the mascara just didn't dry in time or I have my annoying habit of rubbing my eyes... Sigh, did I really prance around all day with all that?

Well, I've been fortunate to try out Australis' new range of mascaras! Skimming through the pamphlet, I was so surprised! It was incredible! They have covered a mascara for EVERY preference! Whether you wanted thicker, lengthened, voluminous, curvier or you just want to plain ol' condition your lashes-- they have it!!


Going over the information for each one --I knew straight away that the 'Lash Length Extension Mascara was definitely for me!



So running to my mirror I unpackaged the Lash Lengths Extension Mascara..... I prepped up my hair, curled my lashes and did a few strokes covering each and every one.


After applying the mascara:
Oh look at my little cute subtle curls!
(This is the best I can get... really. Yes it is sad... which is why I live off lashes)

I don't know if it's just me, but every time I curl my lashes and apply mascara... It does absolutely nothing for me! In less than 30 minutes it will go back down to it's normal state... So I was crossing my fingers throughout the day hoping that it wouldn't be the same for this mascara.... the description sure looks promising!

Australis' description of this product:
What is it 
A lengthening mascara that works to lengthen lashes with fibres that attatch themselves to the lids of the lashes. It is so lightweight you'll feel like you are not wearing any mascara at all!
Why we love it 
Creates long, defined and separated lashes in an instant. Contains easy wash-off tubing formulation for no 'panda eyes'


7 hours later...
Not bad!!! (I know. I took a picture of the wrong eye. But you get the gist!)

And you know what's the best thing about this mascara? 
Compared to other mascaras I've used, I always ended up with smears below my waterline but the mascara applies as if it wraps around your lashes so it comes off as 'tubes'. There is absolutely no tugging or pulling, all I do is just dab makeup remover on a cotton pad and with a bit of pressure, wipe it across my eyelashes!

Little tubes^ How adorable!

Why I love it:
- Lengthens my lashes
- Amazing formula makes it easy to remove
- Absolutely no panda eyes

My verdict:
I think this product is awesome! It does every single thing it says it'll do, it lengthened and it kept my little curls in place too! And the best thing of course, it's super simple to remove with the 'tubing' formula and all!

Pricing and Available at:
BigW, Target and Priceline
@ $11.95

If you wanted to check it out, right now Priceline is having a buy three for the price of two on Australis products. Ohhh, don't you love bargains!


I hope you've enjoyed this review!
Au reviour!
