Our October Wishlist…

Posted in Wishlist by

Okay so here it goes, our first Wishlist! We are always rambling onto each other about amazing products we would love to try, and always seem to forget them in a week or so. It then baffle us how we can be so in love with a product one week, wanting it so badly, and then the next week we struggle to remember what the product actually was. Until we are talking about a completely separate topic and the product would then spring to mind again. So we got to thinking, if we wrote it all down then we would have a constant reminder, a kind of check list that we can always refer back to. And here it is, our wish list (or should we say ‘our I want it so badly I could die list’).

Rae Morris Brush Set.

The ultimate item on our wish list. Not only are they an amzing set of makeup brushes they are also designed by our idol Rae Morris. There are 26 brushes in the set and are all made from animal hair with bamboo handles. Oh how we would love one of these babies in our makeup kit. RRP: A hefty $899.00. We might be waiting a while for this one, a girl can dream. *Image courtesy of crownbrush.com.au

Rimmel London Kate Moss Lipstick in No: 11.

A really pretty deep purple colour. Kind of like the one Tilly Devine wears in Underbelly Razor. I am not quiet sure if I can rock this colour but, I sure am going to try. And it will be a nice change to the usual red lipstick that has become my usual color of choice.

An Ecoya candle in the French Pear fragrance.

It is amazing how much this candle actually smells like pears! I just want to buy one and burn it all day long, and with 55 hours of burn time I really could. RRP: Around the $50.00 mark for the 270g metro jar.

M.A.C Posh Paradise Paint Pot in Pure Creation.

With out a doubt no matter what M.A.C counter I walk into this baby is SOLD OUT! The paint pot is a little tub of eye shadow. When you apply it to your eyes it goes on creamy and then dries to revel a viberant colour of amazingness (okay, that’s not technically a word but, there is nothing else to describe it). RRP for this hard to find wonder is $35.00.

Do you guys have any beauty wish list items for October?

Want to Get the London look?

Posted in Events, Eyes, Lips by

Last Wednesday night we were lucky enough to attend a Rimmel London event to celebrate Kate Moss 10 year collaboration with the brand, I really cannot believe it has been 10 years! The one advert that always comes to my mind when I think of Kate Moss and Rimmel is the one for Volume Flash Mascara where she rides a motor bike through the streets of London. Rimmel always comes up with such great ads to sell their products and you can never forget the catch phase “Get the London Look”. We had such a great night celebrating (and maybe drinking a few delish cocktails, Vodka and Blueberries anyone?) we wanted to share a few pics from the night.

Now it wasnt all fun and games, we were also there to get a sneak peek at Kate Moss first ever signature lipstick collection created by Kate herself for Rimmel. The collection appropriately named The Kate Collection contains 7 shades varying from bright pinks, reds, coral and nudes, you are bound to find one that suits your skin tone and attitude.

After the event we were excited to take home a Rimmel London pack containing one of Kate’s Lasting Finish lipsticks.

The lipstick we received was number 11, a deep red (you cannot imagine how happy I was to get the red colour, I can’t get enough of red lippy). The lipsticks glides on well and the colour pops straight away, it is a very rich red and is a great colour to wear out during the day or night. Sometimes I find with certain brands of lipstick the colour that comes out on your lips is not always the same as it looks in the stick. The colour lasted well, after eating lunch it was still as bright as ever. I didn’t really need to apply for about 2 hours, by that time my lips did feel slightly dry.

In our awesome goodie bag we also received the Extra Wow Lash mascara in Extreme Black. I have to say this mascara is pretty god dam amazing, it is lash building and really defines your lashes making them fuller and longer. The brush  is oversized making it easy to create volume, you can apply 1-2 coats for a soft look or by applying 3 or more you achieve a dramatic look great for hitting up some friday night cocktails.

Kate Moss Vintage Muse perfume was also included, a floral musk scent that really lingers on your skin. Vintage Muse contains plum, rhubarb and black currant creme as its head. Peony, tiger orchid and purple violet as its heart and ambergris, white musk and a touch of chocolate for its base. All in all such a beautiful mix of ingredients, making this perfume delicious, not to mention the deep amethyst colour and design of the bottle. Breathtaking!

Check out the Rimmel London Australia website for all their other amazing products. They have such a great variety of makeup from polishes, lip gloss, lip stick, foundation everything you could possibly need.
