I feel like everyone and their mums are talking about the newly released Rimmel Provocalips 16hr Kiss Proof Lip Colour*. Some reviews I have read are praising these as the next best things whereas others are saying these are not all they're cracked up to be. I was more than happy to give these newbies a little bit of a trial and see...
To be perfectly honest with you all, I'm not the best contour person... I'm kinda crap to be honest. I watch billions of tutorials and they make it seem so easy. Just suck in your cheeks and place the shadow where the hollows are. Simple right?! Except, I swear to God, I cannot find these damn "hollows". My face is a round blob...
As you may have seen in my Sephora/MAC USA haul here I picked up the beaaaautiful Tarte Limited Edition Pin Up Girl Amazonian Clay Blush Palette! My Tarte cherry got popped! Anyways, I thought I would give you guys a really quick review over this little stunner! ...
I have a lot of love for Innoxa. I feel like just in the past year, they have seriously stepped up their game! These past couple of months I have been using their products - both makeup and skincare - more and more! I recently posted a review on the Innoxa Renew Age Erase Serum foundation here explaining my love for it!Anyways, a little about...
Hey, so I thought I would do a quick little post about the multiple points of contact I currently have.1. Duh, the blog. You can comment on any of my posts and generally I will reply answering your queries! 2. My email. heytherejacquelyn@gmail.com - generally, this is only used for PR/Business purposes. 3. My Insty. @heytherejacquelyn I am most commonly found on here and love...
These seem to be floating around on the Instagram world as of late, and I finally got my hands on some! The colours that most stood out to me were "In Love With Ginger", a bright orange red shade, and "As You Want Victoria", a dark fuschia pink plum shade. ...
I was sent a bottle of the Innoxa Renew Age Erase Serum Foundation* agggges ago and have been using it quite regularly, and in short I'm super impressed. ...
A super exciting post today! I finally plucked up the courage to make a purchase to a shipping service company from some websites that don't ship to Australia (Sephora and MAC, I'm looking at you!). I have an affiliate link for ComGateway and would seriously appreciate if you would join their service using my link: http://comgateway.com/heytherejacquelyn/ ANYYYYYWAYS, let's go onto the haul damage!...
Definitely the most mentioned palette in the beauty world is the Urban Decay Original Naked palette. It has spawned many "dupes" and even fakes if you search hard enough. A perfect collection of 12 neutral eyeshadows that range from shimmer to matte, from beige to black allowing you to create whatever neutral eye look your heart desires. But is it really worth that...
Yep. Another month has gone. As I am writing this I am a day away from finishing university for 2014! Fourth year done and dusted. Still feel like graduation is a long way away though... Anyway, let's get onto my favourites for the month of October! ...
So I went from zero to six in the space of a month. Woops #sorrynotsorry. These are the glorious, hyped up Milani Baked Blushers. They are Instragram famous, YouTube famous, beauty famous. I purchased these because everybody keeps talking about them and I totally needed to purchase a whole bunch of them... ...
This one is for all you nosy people ;) I honestly don't keep much in my handbag, but when I go to uni I usually throw in my iPad as well. Let's have a quick squiz... ...
Every beauty blogger/Youtuber has talked about these lipglosses! I honestly thought it was all because off affiliate programs or deals, but of course I was suckered in... If you follow me on Insty (@heytherejacquelyn) you would know I adore these and generally throw them on nearly every Makeup of the Day posts I show! The formula ticks all the right boxes for me...
Firstly, can I just say what the hell?! When did we get into OCTOBER? Like... there is only three months to go for 2014. I have about 4 weeks of uni left for the year. Crazy. Anyways, as usual I have my monthly beauty favourites. I have tried to curb my spending lately and make the most of the products I have at...
To be perfectly honest with you all, I never bothered to do my eyebrows until a couple months ago (I know, SHOCK HORROR!). I tried using powder and pencil and I loved the way my eyebrows were looking all filled in and neatened up. I was hearing so much hype about the Dipbrow and I thought why not give it a try and...
YouTube made me do it! So everyone and their mums have talked about the amazingness that is Makeup Geek eyeshadows created by the ever so lovely Marlena from makeupgeek on YT. I have always been interested in purchasing them and finally got around to getting six of them a couple months ago (along with a brush and pigment)! I gave myself a little...
I've been loving high end makeup lately. I think I'm budgeting more, allowing me to splurge a little bit more on faaancy pieces. But, we all love a bargain! I have a pretty extensive drugstore collection, so it took me a while to whittle it down to my favourites for under $10 AUD. Let's get into it! ...
Okay, guys... is anyone else feeling like these months are flying by? As I'm writing this it is the 1st of September, literally only four months until we are in 2015! This month I feel like I haven't been experimenting as much with my makeup, stressed with uni and feeling like I'm lacking in time more often than not has seen me take...
I featured this bad boy in a previous monthly favourites post so I thought it would only be fair to dedicate an entire post to the beautiful Stila In the Light eyeshadow palette. This has been a hugely popular eyeshadow palette in the beauty world, but like I said in my favourites post, I hadn't bothered to really look into it because I...
Sooooo guys, I have been naughty. It was my birthday in the beginning of July and let's just say, I went cray. I bought way too much makeup, but you only turn 21 once in life! Just a pre warning... this post is definitely pic heavy! Prepare yo'self. ...
I've been requested quite a few times to do a review of the BYS blushers. BYS is one of the cheapest brands of makeup in Australia and can be found in places like Kmart or $2 type shops (Reject Shop, Crazy Clarks... etc). I know many people who avoid BYS because they are a "cheap" brand therefore quality isn't as good. To be...
Another month has passed. This month felt like a big month to me! I turned 21 during July - extremely old, I know! Anyways this month I bought a lot of new things and trialled a lot of new things and these are things I've been reaching for the most! ...
When Urban Decay first released images on the third instalment of the popular Naked palettes (not including Basics or Flushed) I was gobsmacked at just how beautiful the colours looked. The rosy-gold hues are absolutely gorgeous and extremely popular currently. I purchased this when it was first release whilst I was overseas last year from Sephora but I do know Australians can purchase...
So I thought I would whip this up ASAP so I can start playing around with my new goodies and including them in my daily FOTDs on Instagram (@heytherejacquelyn if you weren't aware...)! I decided to make a purchase through Luxola on the afternoon of Thursday the 17th of July and I received it bright and early this morning, Monday the 21st of...
I've been asked to do this since I first created heytherejacquelyn, but I've put it off... until now. I have eight Lime Crime lipsticks and I'm going to lip swatch them all for your enjoyment. ...
I received this blush the other day and was extremely excited to give it a try! I have previously used their original formula blushes but have never ventured into their Instain range. The shade I was sent is Toile - an intense pink/coral shade that reminds me a lot of Strawberries! ...
As a fairly new brand of cosmetics, I had only heard of Colour Theory a handful of times. I tried searching for the products to give them a try however, Colour Theory is only stocked in Amcal and Guardian pharmacy and alas, I have none near me! However I was lucky enough to be kindly sent a couple products to test out and...
Instagram has been blowing up lately over the newest releases by the Priceline exclusive brand Savvy by DB. These little packs, smaller than the size of my hand contain two products - new to the brand - for only $5! How could a girl resist? When I went in to my local Priceline there were so many different options it was hard to...
It's been a hot minute since I did my last empty post and I have accumulated a bunch of trash to talk to you guys about. This is another long one, so prepare yourself with a tea and biscuits! ...
Okay. The heavens created something in the form of an eyeshadow palette. More specifically, the Lorac Pro Palette. With all this new talk about the brand new Lorac Pro Palette 2, I thought I'd give some love to the palette that has definitely got my heart. With 16 beautiful, neutral shades, if you are a neutral eye wearer you NEED this palette, NEED....
It's the end of the month already and I have definitely got some new favourites for you all! Let's get stuck into them! ...
These have been clogging up my Instagram feed lately, but I just couldn't justify the $24 pricetag at Priceline for a simple matte lip cream/lipstick. Howwwwwever, just as luck would have it, Priceline decided to have a little sale the other week and was selling them for a measly $10! Bargain! Considering I got three for only $6 more than what a single...
So you have all probably already heard about the Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (OCC) Lip Tars and what a revolutionary/interesting product they are. Anyways, I purchased all six of mine off Lipstick Republic for about $18. So basically, if you weren't aware, lip tars are basically a liquid consistency type of lip colour product. They have amazing pigmentation and you literally need a drop to do...
I've decided to do a little two part series about my favourite brushes or the ones I use most commonly! First up - face brushes. Anything to do with my base, cheeks etc. Just a heads up - I purchased all my Real Technique brushes, ELF products and Eco Tools brushes from iHerb! It's a fantastic site and I recommend it because of...
Firstly, I want to say sorry! The last couple weeks have been hard on me, with final uni assignments due and I'm working more than usual. My whole "beauty" life has been on the sideline unfortunately. If I could do makeup all day, err'day I would, but alas, life is more complicated than that. Anywhooos, this is my monthly favourites. Better late than...
The worst task of being a beauty lover? Cleaning brushes. You should be spot cleaning after like every use... I don't. And you should be deep cleaning once a week... I don't. I generally push my deep cleaning to once every fortnight or longer. I know that is terrible but I have in total close to 70 brushes, so I'm pretty safe and can generally...
If you follow me on Insty (which you should! @heytherejacquelyn) I posted I received these two bad boys in the mail from the lovely Ulta3 team! These have been getting a lot of talk recently in the Australian beauty scene and I have been looking for them for ages but could never find them in the stores. There is a total of six...
In Australia, Winter is approaching at what seems to be a turtle type speed. However, I am a huuuuge fan of Autumn/Winter makeup! The colours are divine - the reds, the burgundys, the purples. So I thought I might do a quick little post about the lip products (other than lip balm, duh) I'll be reaching for the most these seasons! Revlon Matte...
Another month has passed and we're getting ever so close to being half way done with 2014! This month I really expanded my products, ie. I did a lot of shopping. These are the standout picks for this month! Sally Hansen Insta-Dri: I have always used my Seche Vite but this month I picked the Sally Hansen version up because I just ran...
It may not look like much, but it still hurt my little bank account. On Easter Saturday I decided to go shopping with one of my close friends and let's just say... she's a bad influence! Left-to-Right: SG Violet Crumble, SG Candy, SG Black Magic, SG Mad About You, BB Shocking Matte Pink Sportsgirl Lipsticks: I am in love with them. They are...
