New Revlon Colorstay Eyeshadow Sets
From the pages of "Why didn't they think of this earlier?" comes the latest eye shadow offering from Revlon, every shade comes in its own size depending on how often most people would tend to use each colour for a gorgeous contoured eye.
I can't be the only person who goes through the lightest shade and has to buy another individual pot of eye-shadow to work with the palette again! Another bonus is the fact that these are 16 hour Colorstay eye shadows, they'll last!
The range of combinations also go from gorgeous neutrals to eye popping colours so hopefully they'll suit all tastes too, my favourites for the coming winter months is Goddess, Soft greys with a light pink to liven it up.

Bought! Floral Jeans and Kitty Headscarf
I've been eyeing off a pair of floral jeans for sometime to add to my arsenal for the season. If you do or don't know, I've started training five days a week and don't have as much free time as I used to, but one perk is indeed my shrinking waistline. I thought I might have to send them back due to fit but I don't!
ASOS currently have a small but good range of floral denim, you need a choice of prints to ensure you can buy somethng that will work with the rest of your wardrobe. For me it was a fight between this pair and a lighter pair, which the darker print ultimately one... though the lighter pair may be saved until Spring if they're still available, such bright and zingy shades!
Also picked up this too cute headscarf, You buys know me! How could I resist this print?? It's a long rectangle that I can also tie around my neck, Scarves are my next fashion trademark, I've come to realize just how good they are in the sort of cold but still not freezing weather we get in Brisbane, and are easy to take off and on in my office environment.

Can you see the little bows around their necks??

Tribal Nail Art Stamping
So it's safe to say that I am in love with my new toy! To the point where a manicure doesn't last more then about two days because I already have a new idea for what I want on my nails. Addict.
Here is what I'm wearing now, I used plate QA15. I originally bought it for the cute little kittens on it, but the tribal patterns are pretty spot on the trend money right now too. Alpine skiing anyone?

Bought! John Freida Salon Shape Air Styler
Hands up who wants an easier way to blow dry at home? I should be seeing a lot of hands in the air! Priceline are doing a fantastic deal in the last week where if you spent $40 on products across ten or so ranges you got a goodie bag packed with almost $200 worth of product! Since I missed the beauty version of this the other month I was dying to get my paws on this one, and lucky me, the new John Freida air styler was just around $50. You can check out more details about the bag deal here!
I've been stalking this kind of product since I spotted it come out around a year ago, but I couldn't justify the near $100 price tag that came with it. So I decided to wait until something more thrifty came out, and I love it. Instead of juggling a brush and a blow-dryer and still quite frankly needing another hand to assist to get a good result at home, this type of tool combines the dryer and brush in one. I have my hair styled in less then ten minutes (excluding prior drying time) and don't get so frustrated with my hair not doing what I want.
The styler comes with three settings; low temp, high temp and a cold shot to set your style. The end result was that I have shiny, bouncy, oomphy, straight hair with a nice sense of movement through the ends. Perfect.
While I don't have any real problems with the styler, I did buy it thinking that the brush head would rotate, it doesn't, but it's still very user friendly and easy to use without this feature.
Have you tried this product or something similar before? What did you think?
