New Hair , Smudge e/l + More Bronzed than usual

haha sorry for all the FOTD posting (which isn't even that much) but I want to get some out of the way for when I am away. I have older pics to post too like the one I posted yesterday so if it seems like some times my hair looks faded or my eyebrows look messy it's coz they are not posted in order.... (I still have some from months ago that I wanna post!!)

Sorry for the posey pics I was in a posey mood :P
Not much changed with my hair, I just got it dyed that same dark red/purple colour (to match my extensions which I barely wear! my hair is long anyway haha) & my side fringe re-cut.... which I think I may grow out again & style it to the middle haha that doesn't make sense.. oh am I the only one with the horrible short hairs around my hairline at the top!?? ahah
Natural Light.... I wish my eyes were more squinty haha!

Deer in Headlights lol

Nyx Lip Product Swatches!

I am still building my lipstick collection (which is the biggest part of my makeup collec haha) which is mainly thanks to Nyx for their affordable & huge lipstick range! So I only have 12 lipsticks, 6 lip liners & 3 lip glosses but I am getting there, I promise!
I find the best place to purchase these on the web is through Joy's Cosmetics store on ebay- click here- where you can get a bunch of items say 3 l/s for about $7 and I have ordered from her so much &have had no problems at all!
Anyway- onto the swatches =] Pic Heavy so apologies in advance! Also, click the pics to view them larger!

Bronzed FOTD

When I'm not really sure what eyeshadow to do, I usually just do golds or bronze. Add a bright lippy & I'm good to go, almost :)
Also- I really want to do other posts not just FOTDs, but when I get back from Phuket expect a hugee haul. eee so excited! I may also start posting about makeup basics :)

My Nightly Skin Care Routine

I posted this when I first started, but my nightly skin care routine has changed soo much since then. I think I have found what finally works for me! I haven't broken out in sooo long *knocks on wood* except for some monthly ones. Also I have been using the same face wash & method for a few months now so I hope it holds out!

  • I remove my eye & face makeup with Garnier Clean Detox Express Cleansing Wipes
  •  Then wet face with warm water. I like to rinse a flannel under hot water (not too hot!) & push it to my skin, so it opens up the pores.
  •  I have only just added this back in but now I massage the Dove Beauty Cream Bar in & wash it off.
  • Onto my amazing face wash- Neutrogena Oil- Free Acne Stress Control Power-Cream Wash *phew* long name haha, I massage this one in after the beauty bar for a good 2-3 mins.
  • I use Extra Virgin Olive Oil as a toner & moisturiser.. After I have dried my face I use a cotton bud to remove the rest of my eye makeup (stubborn eyeliner, mascara) & then with a cotton pad I apply a little bit of EVOO all over my face, including on my eye lids as an eye moisturiser. I can see what makeup (if any) is leftover when I do this & it makes my dry skin feel sooo good, but not if I apply too much!
  • Then I just apply a little bit of Tea Tree Oil to any pimples.


  Garnier Clean Detox Express Cleansing Wipes
 Sorry Its small but here's what it says: Smoothes & refreshes the skin, removes makeu-up & impurities. Anti-oxidant greent mint + vitamin E



 


 Dove Beauty Cream Bar

 I actually use a mini travel size one (so cute! hehe) But this soap is very moisturising- never use actual soap on your face! Only this one!



 

Neutrogena Oil- Free Acne Stress Control Power-Cream Wash
 This contains 2% salicylic acid which you know is good for nasty pimples but because this is a cream wash it is not drying at all! So it is perfect for
dry skin as well. On a side note- I love how squishy the bottle is! Hehe.





  
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
 This is not the EVOO that I use, I use just a generic store brand one, but if you are scared about putting olive on your face read here!









 Tea Tree Oil
 Tea Tree Oil is very good for any pimples, because it is anti-bacterial & doesn't irritate the skin. It can be drying if you apply too much, though! I also like to use it on bites & itches :)








Anyhoo thats just what I found has been working for me, & everyone's skin is different so you will need to find a cleanser that suits your needs. Hope this was helpful to someone!
