My Favourite Eyeliner Right Now....

Right now, I am loving the Gel Eyeliners. I find that it's easy to apply, it sets very nicely and does not smudge.

It's an alternative to liquid eye liner for those who don't like or have not mastered the application with liquid liners. I feel you can still get the same effect with gel liners as you do liquid.

I have been using Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama in Black. I find that I can get a nice dramatic effect on my eyes.

I bought mine for about $15-$20(can't remember) but managed to find some stores online that sell it for $10 - Amazon, CVS Pharmacy, Drugstore.com, Bloom.com, Walgreens, Purchase Direct - just to name a few.

It's perfect to wear on it's own or if you want to make a bold statement with your eye make-up.

I think I have officially ditched all other eye liners for gel - I love it!

Found a review of this Korean website on this blog

Please note you do have to go onto a waiting list for Eco-Emi but all the products are organic.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is just a point of reference for people to check out the various sites and choose a beauty box is best for them. There is a variety of subscription offers and you do have to pick and choose what products you will be most interested in. Research around and read reviews on the companies before you subscribe. The good thing is, you can cancel your subscription anytime.

I found that America had the most to offer for their residents. With this growing trend, I'm sure there will be more companies emerging offering more options as well as natural, organic products.

I'm off now to research some nail polish trends.

:D

Bag It Up!

Bags Bags Bags!! The one accessory that no girl can live without!

I was out on one of my expeditions to Harbour Town, and came across a Kate Hill store. Now I had never entered, as I thought it looked expensive and probably out of my price range, but woke up and realized I was looking at an outlet store!

Now these stores look trendy but dainty at the same time and you can find any sort of bag accessory in these stores. Kate Hill caters for all bag types including tote bags, clutches, shoulder bags, purses and luggage. I think the reason why I like this store, is because they are a unique Australian designer based out of Melbourne.

Whether you want chic, sporty or girly, Kate Hill has the bag for you. Check out some of the styles on offer now (pictures below) which are on sale. Some of the items are more than 50% off and there is quite a good range even for the sale items. Everything shown below also comes in different colours.

Now I'm the type of person who likes big bags. The larger the better! I live out of my bag and therefore it needs to be able to fit all my junk in! Right now, I am using a coral handbag with a bow. I tried matching it with a coral mini clutch, which I use as a make up bag and then also bought a pink frilled coined purse.

I spent $39.99 on the coral bag, which normally cost $89.99. That's a saving of over 50%!! The coin purses and mini clutch were $6.95 and $7.95 down from $14.95. I included a picture of a red clutch that I got as a gift because it looks sweet with it's frills. :) I think with summer coming up, I see coral in most fashion stores. I think it looks good on everyone!

And finally, if you go to the Kate Hill website now, they are offering free shipping for a limited time only! That's awesome because if you do decide to purchase online, you could save even more! If you prefer to go to a store, check out your nearest location at http://www.katehill.com.au/store-locations/w1/i1006682/. You could find that in store has more to offer in comparison to the sale items online.
