JANE IREDALE MINERAL MAKE UP

Up until this review I had never used mineral make up. I had of course heard a lot about it, seen the ads on TV and in magazines, and to be honest with you just thought all the hype was just that "hype".

Going in to a review with no pre-con conceived ideas (or in this case, skepticism) is usually a fantastic way to get a non biased view of a product.

JANE IREDALE 
PURE PRESSED MINERAL MAKE UP


When I opened the box, the first thing I noticed was the weight of the compact. It's surprisingly weighty compared to most of the flimsy plastic compacts produced by its competitors. A sign of quality, immediately I was impressed.

The package is accompanied with a thin white puff, that sits on top of the powder with a mirror inside the lid.

The texture of the powder is silky smooth, gives a full coverage and feels totally weightless.

I wore this day in day out for two weeks and I am converted, Jane Iredale Mineral Make Up is incredible. Even on days when I had break outs, I got complete coverage, without looking like I had inches of make up on and still looked fresh. My pores were still able to breathe due to Jane Iredale Mineral Make Up being Non Comedogenic and oil free.


This particular shade was slightly pinker than my skin hue, however with a multitude of shades available - the right match,  you'll have photoshop in a compact.

It spreads well, so you don't need a lot and it doesn't leave a powdery residue. Sheer and semi- matte finish.

Some interesting facts:

The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective UV sunscreen
Water Resistant
Not tested on animals

BEAUTY QUEEN

For years I've always been told how lucky I was to have such good skin. And for years I always blew the compliments off with a casual thank you. As I get older, I now cherish those compliments knowing how lucky I actually am.  Catching up with family, specifically the older generations I realise that it's all in the genes. My 85 year old grandfather doesn't look a day over 70, his younger sister who turned 70 this year looks barely 55 and my mum, who probably won't want me revealing her age haha is looking the best she has in years (in fact most people think she's lying when she reveals she has a 34 year old daughter!). I am blessed with the obviously magic youth genes from my mothers side but also the genes from my fathers side which carries the Native American heritage - which I believe are forever youthful. Most people think i'm in my mid-late 20's and i'm happy with that ;-) Everyone is different, so I thought I would share my daily ski...

HAVE YOU HEARD?

After a crazy weekend of celebrating our friends Hen's and Bucks (needless to say the chores and shopping didn't get done) - the boy came home from a long day's work and being the good girlfriend I am (hehe) I suggested take out for dinner. But rather than doing the standard McDonalds or Hungry Jacks, we decided to order delivery from Menulog  a fabulous new take-away food and delivery website that has a huge range of local restaurants available to order from the click of a button. Step 1.  Type in your postcode (see image below) Step 2.  A list of restaurants available to order from depending on your location - both takeaway and delivery appear for you to choose from (see image below) Labrador Delivery Step 3. You choose your restaurant and order the scrumptious food! There was a decent selection to choose from, however we went with ALs Convenience Aussie & Indian Takeaway which has a mixture of cuisine which was perfect fo...

Style heavyweights interviewed especially for the film include Easton Pearson 's Lydia Pearson, Sass and Bide 's Heidi Middleton, and Nicky and Simone Zimmermann . The public launch will take place on Monday 3 March. I got the chance to have a quick chat to Stylist Josh Jones who was involved with the project about what he had to say...
