Maybelline Color Whisper Swatches & Review ♥

I was lucky enough to snatch up a few of the Maybelline Color Whispers when they were on sale the other day for only $5 each. I bought all four of the colours that I could get my hands on, which were Orange Attitude, Pink Possibilities, Who Wore It Red-er and Mad For Magenta.

I am really pleased with all of the colours that I was able to get, and will definitely be trying to get my hands on a few more colours from the collection.

MAC Heroine Dupes ♥ Lime Crime ♥ Sleek

Hey lovelies!

I was looking at one of my favourite lipsticks today, Heroine by MAC, and I realised that it wasn't a shade that I have had for very long as I missed it when it was first released. If fact, I didn't own any MAC lipsticks for quite a long time due to their huge price tag here in NZ ($40-$45). This got me thinking about the lipsticks that I used before purchasing Heroine that gave a similar look. These are not dead on dupes, but I think that they do have some strong similarities and are still interesting to look at!

Beginning My Blogging Journey ♥ Mini Etude House Lipstick Review

I've always liked the idea of being a beauty blogger, and I already follow many of the big named bloggers out there, so I finally decided to take a leap and try doing it myself.

I hope to post many swatches and reviews in the future!

I come from Wellington, New Zealand, but I cannot wait to move overseas one day (hopefully to the UK somewhere). Make-up is incredibly expensive over here, and most brands are not stocked in stores, so in turn I have become a bit of an online shopping addict!
