Weekend Drugstore Haul

- reviewed by L

Hey guys! This is going to be a short post, just on a few items I picked up whilst running errands at Parkmore Shopping Centre.

Technically I was meant to take my brother to Kmart to get him some Khung Zhu toy, because he bought a race course set to race 'hamsters' (which he doesn't have) so now he has a race course with no hamsters to race. Being the great sister I am, I took him to Parkmore, and dragged him straight to the make-up section in KMART and Priceline. I managed to purchase all of these for under $20!

Ok so just quickly on what I managed to purchase today.

BYS - JUMBO Liquid Eyeliner Pen

Store: KMART

Price: $5.75

I've been wanting to get a jumbo liner for awhile now, noticed this on the shelf and read that it was water-proof and smudge-proof (AWESOME) and figured I'd give it a go. Application is easy, the pointy tip offers good precision and is ease of control.

Face Of Australia - Glossy Lip Crayon; Raspberry Coulls

Store: KMART

Price: $4.75 (Originally $7.95)

Saw that the FOA lip crayons were on sale, I thought I'd grab another one to add to my collection. Love that these are so moisturizing! How could I not get more?

Essence - 'METAL glam' Highlighter Powder

Store: Priceline

Price: $5.35

I needed a highlighter, Essence had one in their new "METAL glam" range. Meant to be. So I grabbed it. It's well pigmented.

Essence - 'METAL glam' Gold Topper

Store: Priceline

Price: $3.50

This was a splurge buy, it basically just layers pieces of gold flakes on top of your nails. The great thing is that it dries quick, I would suggest though putting a thin layer of clear top coat on afterwards as well. (You can see in the two swatches above of how the gold topper looks).

So what did you think of my haul today? Feel free to leave a comment below :)

Oh and my brother's KUNG ZHU 'hamster' ended up being a discontinued toy line. He's pretty upset over it. Poor fella.

Swatch & Review: SAVVY by DB - Lipsticks

reviewed by - S.

Hey there lipstick junkies! Boy have I got a treat for you! If you haven't already discovered these fantastic lipsticks, then I highly recommend you stop what you're doing, get in your car and make your way to your nearest Priceline store. There are a range of colours to choose from, different finishes and are all quite pigmented and creamy. They don't have a scent at all really, which is something my sensitive skin very much so appreciates! And the best part is, they are decently priced and often have "3for2" sales at Priceline. Just keep an eye out!

I have been using these lipsticks for quite some time now, and absolutely love them! Definitely an Australian drugstore-gem!

Below are some swatches of the lipsticks I currently own!

Colour: Magenta

Texture: Creamy

Finish: Frosty

Retail Price: $4.99

Comments: I love this magenta colour! It's a beautiful rich dark pink that glides on so smoothly and lasts quite a fair while! It looks lovely on pretty much all skin tones!

Colour: Blushing Pink

Texture: Creamy

Finish: Frosty

Retail Price: $4.99

Comments: This lipstick colour is perfect for those who are fans of rosy shades! Where it is creamy, it can become a little more drying over time. So be sure to wear some lip balm underneath!

Colour: Pretty Pink

Texture: Very Creamy

Finish: Satin

Retail Price: $4.99

Comments: This colour is perfect for everyday use! It is my go-to 'My-Lips-But-Better' lippy!

Colour: Blossom

Texture: Creamy but drying

Finish: Matte

Retail Price: $6.99

Comments: This is part of the Long-Lasting Matte Lipstick range. The colour is very vibrant and youthful, bright and fun and absolutely gorgeous on my warmer skin-tone. As it is a matte lipstick it can become quite drying, but that's nothing a little lip balm can't fix!

Colour: Tiger Lily

Texture: Creamy but drying

Finish: Matte

Retail Price: $6.99

Comments: This is part of the Long-Lasting Matte Lipstick range. I never usually go for such orange tones, but this colour comes off very beautifully. Whether you want to wear it boldly, or whether you're just looking to dab on a natural "nude" lip with a hint of colour, this lipstick can definitely do the trick! Application method is key!

Colour: Coral

Texture: Very Creamy

Finish: Satin

Retail Price: $4.99

Comments: This lipstick is more on the warmer side of reds. It is an orange-red colour perfect for those with more golden tones (not to say that cooler undertoned ladies can't pull it off!)

Colour: Cherry

Texture: Very Creamy

Finish: Satin

Retail Price: $4.99

Comments: This lipstick has a slightly cooler undertone. Great for making your teeth look whiter! It is very rich in colour and is the perfect red lippy to try if you've never had the guts to wear red before!

I sincerely hope this post has been helpful. These lipsticks really are amazing and I hope you get to try them out! I know I will definitely be going back to pick up some more shades! :) Bye for now!
