I was super lucky to have been contacted by the Australian PR company for NYX and was given the opportunity to try out these new colour mascaras they were launching. Here are some basic deets - these mascaras can ONLY be purchased online through the Target Australia website and they retail for $12.95 OR you can get a five pack bundle like the one I have here for $39. Also, it should be noted that outside of this five pack there seems to be three more additional shades in Brown, Purple (darker than this one I believe) and a darker Blue. If you are interested in knowing my honest opinion, keep reading!
Now I've never been a skincare lover. I do the basic and barely ever adventure into the serum or fancy skincare world. I purchased the Indeed Laboratories Hydraluron serum awhile ago and have only recently starting to implement it into my nighttime skincare routine this past winter to help combat my ridiculously dry and scaly winter skin. Read on if you want to hear my thoughts about this little (expensive) squeezy tube of goodness.
So... woops. It's been a while since I've actually written a Tuesday Thoughts post and I can't really give an excuse. Sometimes trying to manage so many things in life gets a bit stressful and you really just need to take a step back and breathe.
My partner and I have been hiking all the time lately. Literally every week. I've just been feeling the weather here in Queensland and have been starting to feel more inspired and energetic. It's also a great chance for us to spend some quality couple time together without the hassle of phones or emails. We can just be us, without distractions. We've been to probably about 10 or so different locations and the Sunday just gone we hiked around the Lamington National Park and it was absolutely beautiful. I can't get over how gorgeous and lovely it was. Unfortunately I got stung, not once but twice, by those dang stingy plants. Dead, so uncomfortable. If anyone knows of really good, rainforest-y kind of hikes please leave me a comment and let me know! :)
I handed in my last assignment EVER the other day. A couple days early I might add! Basically this semester I only had two assignments and one final exam, so it's been a fairly cruisey time. Now with both assessment done, I just have the final exam to complete and then I will be graduating! OMG. Five years and the time is nearly here. What do I treat myself with? I'm thinking a Tiffany and Co. necklace?
Job applying has been getting me hella down as I keep getting knocked back or feel like there aren't any jobs that really sound like they fit me. I'm a bit torn as to what I want to do with life, but I'm hoping if I take it one day at a time I will figure something out. I'm going to be graduating with a Marketing and Information Technology degree, just FYI!
I'm getting a spa facial today, but I don't really know what is involved BUT I am keen for it. It's with Jurlique and it is to welcome in Summer and prep my skin so it looks healthy and radiant! I love getting pampered, it is such a nice feeling to feel super important for a little bit and get treated to some luxury!
True Blood has been my life lately. I used to watch True Blood back in the day and watched the first three seasons, but never bothered watching the final seasons. I figured it was time to finally put the series to bed, so I've been watching it non-stop lately. On the seventh and final season and nearly done. I feel accomplished, like I've achieved something with my life.
That's all for now guys, I hope I will be able to post a weekly Thoughts post, but I am not going to promise anything because I hate feeling guilty!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I have a moon face. My face shape is round and my cheeks are chubby. I cannot have my makeup done and NOT do something on my cheeks. Whether it be bronzer, contour or blush - I need something to give my face some actual shape so it actually resembles a humans face.
You don't have to spend a fortune to get that bronzey glow.
