Hi again!
Yes my posts are becoming more regular – yay!
So recently, I’ve been trying to revert back to natural products or products with simple ingredients. The product I’ve been using the most is COCONUT OIL! I know there’s been a lot of hype around coconut oil recently, so I’ve created a list of uses – and there are A LOT!
Hi there!
So, as you may have noticed, the number of subscription box services have multiplied like crazy over the past couple of years. They have a box for EVERYTHING! But of course, I like me some beauty boxes.
I was lucky enough to receive a beauty box from Australian Subscription Box service Bellabox! Bellabox was one of the first sub boxes on the market and have ties with some amazing brands. 
Want to wake up with baby soft, hydrated skin? You need to try Frankie Lou essential facial oil.
As you’ve probably heard me complain about by now, I have ridiculously dry skin. So, so dry that if I don’t moisturise, my face feels like it’s about to crack. Whilst moisturiser and night creams help, nothing is as good as a facial oil. I know the thought of putting oil on your face can sound quite daunting but just hear me out! Continue reading
Never buy things full price!
Now I don’t know if it’s my inner cheap curry instinct or my bank balance, but I barely ever buy things full price.
I mean why should I when there are such things as SALES! Continue reading
Want insta-worthy claws without the nail damage/ excessive costs to get them continuously filled in? Look no further!
When I was younger, I would never have guessed that eyebrows would become such an important part of my life. I never knew they needed to be “on point” or “fleeking”. I just knew I had to have 2 of them!
My usual routine is to get them threaded and then keep them clean by tweezing any stray hairs. I never pluck from the top because I’m afraid of over-plucking so I need a threading ever month or so.
Embarrassingly enough, my eyes tear up when I get my threading done. When my right eyebrow is getting done, my right eye leaks. I don’t know why and no I am not crying!!

2015 has definitely been the year in which I REALLY got into makeup and beauty. I went from learning how to use orange skin correcter to recolour my pigmentation to being able to know exactly what product you were talking about when you mentioned just a little bit about it. Makeup has gone from a hobby to a full fledged addiction!
Here’s what I discovered this year!
You know what I’m talking about. It’s all over instagram! Skin care WITH OUT “benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid“. But what does that even mean? What has benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid ever done to me for me to banish them from my life?
So I promised I’d share the details of my Shop and Box haul with you and here it is!
What is Shop and Box?
I don’t want to say it’s a forwarding service because it’s a lot more personalised than that. Basically you tell them what you want, pay for it, and you get it. Shop and Box collects a commission on top of the prices of the items and shipping which varies.
I got ma nails diiidddd! I love getting manicures and pedicures and everything in between. I mean who doesn’t?
People usually get their nails done when they’re on the go and look for the most convenient locations, which they THINK are only in shopping centres. Having to sit in the stench of acetone and wait whilst the nail technicians finish off somebody else’s toes before moving onto you. Shopping trolleys awkwardly in the way. Nope, not relaxing at all.
I recently went to Orchid Day Spa located in the Melbourne CBD and it. Was. Great. I’m guilty of the above. I’ll admit it. But now that I’ve experienced what a relaxing manicure is meant to be like – I am never going back.
