My Gasoline Rainbow

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 day...

Thursday 18th April marked the Sneak Peek of QT Fashion Week and Awards  held at Stingray Lounge at QT Gold Coast Surfers Paradise. On show was a breathtaking couture gown made entirely of fresh flowers by designer Wedding Flowers by Julia Rose . Julia had been up since 5am creating the gown by hand ready for the guests to arrive in time for the 5.30pm party. Absolutely spectacular. Also on show was artwork by Christoph Parsons  a ridiculously talented stylist and creative director from the Gold Coast whose pieces fuses fashion and art. I've been stalking him for a while on instagram, so it was amazing to be able to meet him and see some of his samples in the flesh  christovsky@msn.com to place orders. Canapes, vodka & 28 Black cocktails, a beauty bar by make up sponsor Runway Express, a fabulous sparkly large stiletto and an artistic fire performance combining kung fu, dance and fire made the night a creative success.  Baroque Pants:: SES Lace ...

www.faceofaustralia.com.au RRP $8.95 Last week I received a lovely package from Face of Australia's PR agent to review a couple of products from their range. One of their products was their liquid eyeliner, as pictured above, which when I opened it up i freaked a little because eye liner, especially liquid eyeliner is one thing I am yet to master. In fact, eye make up in general is one area I stay away from... unless i'm getting a professional to do it for me lol. Needless to say, now is a good a time as ever to learn, and probably the best way to review a product..... As you'll see by the pictures below i'm not wearing any other make up, I wanted to try it raw and real. AND this was my one and only and FIRST EVER attempt with liquid eyeliner.  Face of Australia you've totally got me hooked.  I've always envied the "cat eye" look, it's so sexy, and whenever I get my make up professionally done, that is the only look I ever a...
