Product Review : Micellar Cleansing Water ♡

  Hey Beauties! so, The weather in Sydney has been really hot and cold it changes every hour! and my skin is hating life right now! So I have been on the hunt for some refreshing products to bring my skin back to a hydrated state and give it a good cleanse!  I really wanted to do a review on this product because it deserves it! I have only used it for 3 days and I can honestly say it is magical! 
( These oval cotton pads from priceline, which are like $2 are amazing a good size for taking eye make-up off I use these with the cleaning water)

Micells are an active cleansing ingredient which act as a magnet to capture impurities, make-up and sebum on the skin without vigorous rubbing, And the results are Perfectly cleansed and refreshed skin without vigorous rubbing or rinsing. A soothing formula without perfume to suit all skin types, even sensitive. I purchased mine at Priceline with my sister club member points and my $5 off garnier products! so i paid like $3! bargain !!! I'm glad i picked it up because I really have ell inlove with the way it just removes all my make up!
   
How i use it: I use a oval cotton pad and squirt an even amount on the pad and hold it on my eyes for about 10 seconds ( with a bit of pressure) and wipe away and all my eye make-up is off! Then I will continue with a clean cotton pad and wipe around my face! After I have done this i go on to my other cleansing return and then after that is done I grab another cotton pad and wipe over my face again to make sure all make is removed!  



Have you guys tried this or something different? Let me know?

Love always, amber ♡♡

Top 5 Mascaras ♡

Hey Guys, Sorry I have been MIA the last couple of days! I have been trying to set up my Youtube Channel! which is link on my blog! so check it out :) 
So, I'm going to share with you's my top 5 Mascaras! Now I'm a crazy Mascara lover, I love trying new ones, I have very short lashes that don't hold a curl, so I do use alot at once to voluimze them! so these are some products that I have found that works great and I'm going to share my thoughts and tips and tricks with them! 


#1 Bobbi Brown:  Lash Glamour Extreme Lengthening Mascara 

I'm so madly in love with the mascara its crazy! It really lengthens you're eyelashes and makes them look longer then what they are, which I really do need! The secret? a unique brush, In just one sweep you get noticeably longer lashes & perfect separation. And because the Mascara is enriched with olive-derived emollients, Vitamin B and humectants, the long-wearing mascara conditions lashes while staying smudge & flake-free. You'll be lash obsessed just like I am! So ladies get your hands on this bad boy! 

2# Benefit: They're Real! 
All I have to say is WOW! This Mascara is one of my must have and grabs everyday, everywhere I go this bad boy follows me! At first I hated it and didn't know how to use it properly because of the end of the brush! But the brush helps reveal lashes you never even knew you had! But don't give up! Just keep trying! I have my own special technique that works for me! So keep trying it's worth the hype! so this mascara helps lengthen, curl, volumize, lift and separate the look of your lashes for gorgeous definition. The long-wearing formula dries glossy.

3# L'OREAL Paris: Telescopic Mascara
I find that the Telescopic Mascara really does do it's job some days when I'm lazy I use this on its own and it really does offers up to 60% longer lashes, reinforced at the base and embellishes lashes with a few simple strokes. The first mascara from L''Oreal Paris, which lengthens and defines lashes. The innovative and flexible precision brush separates and lengthens lashes in a beautiful way without no clumps. #dreamcometrue?

4# Rimmel London: Scandal'eyes Lycra Flex Mascara
The brush on this Mascara is a big one which I really do love, It gets right into the lashes and Lift them! This leaves my lashes soft and fluffy and gives it a nice curl! The  Lycra technology formula is  designed to build volume for full lashes. I really will be repurchasing this product again it is really worth it! 

#5  Maybelline: Volum' Express One By One Mascara
Finally,a  bold volume without any of the bulk. Patented lash catcher brush has 3 bristles per lash to make every lash count. Volum' Express One By One Mascara catches, coats and de-clumps each lash to make them all fatter and flirtier. Instant clump-free volume. This is really great if you use more then one mascara at once, it does a really good job of separating those clumpy lashes and just leaving you with soft looking lashes, which everyone wants? 


So that's my top 5 mascaras! I really hope this helped you ladies find the right mascara for you!
leave me in the comments below you favourite ones! i would love to know! 

Love always, amber ♡♡

Stila Palette: Review ♡


A beautiful palette consisting of 10 natural Eye Shadow shades (including the best-selling shade Kitten) and a limited-edition Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner. I have all 4 of these palettes and i honestly love them all! I purchased mine from Mecca Cosmetica ( $62 AUD) The price is abit extreme but they where so worth it and really good for beginners with make up! so I'm going to go through each palette and let you guys know my experience with the Stila Palettes. 
1# Stila In The Light Palette: Okay so I have fallen in love with this palette mainly because of the Famous shadow Kitten, I use this palette almost everyday! It definitely has all the colours you will ever need! I recently did a video on my everyday makeup retinue using this palette on the eye! (Everyday Makeup ♡ | Amber Lorraine) So check that out if you would like to see how I use the Stila in the Light Palette!  and a limited-edition Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Damsel, a matte chocolate brown that comes with the palette and i must say I wasn't a big fan of it! it's a good texture and very pigmented, I just don't like the look of it on myself! maybe I'm using it wrong? if you's have used it leave a comment and let me know! and it also comes with an eight-page lookbook with detailed how-to tips and tricks, which is great! 
2# Stila In The Moment Eye  Palette: The palette is great! I really loved using it when i wanted a pop of purple! With life's everyday pleasures with this beautiful collection of Stila's award-winning eye shadows, featuring a mix of pretty purples and ultra-wearable, neutral shades that flatter every skin tone and can be worn wet or dry. The palette also includes another exclusive Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Tetra, a deep shimmery purple, and also instructive eight-page look book with comprehensive application tips and tricks.

3# Stila In The Garden Eye  Palette: So I'm really loving this palette as well! the colours are to die for! My Favourite at the moment is moss! It isn't a colour I would go for but it really compliments my blonde hair and blue eyes! so many gorgeous Shades, Palette also includes another exclusive Smudge Stick shade in Starfish (black with gold and green pearl sparkle).

4#Stila  In the Know Eye Palette : Wow this palette has to be everyone's favourite matte shades all in one palette! Stilas original matte shades are back! and in this beautiful palette! I'm so glad i brought this because it is another palette I use almost everyday when I feel like I have been abusing my In the Light Palette! The palette also includes another exclusive Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Halfmoon, a matte charcoal grey shade, plus eight-page look book with detailed application tips and tricks.


So that is about it for my Stila Palette review! I hope yous all enjoyed reading it and if you's use Stila Products or one of these palettes let me know! 



Lots of Love Amber,♡

Lust for the week #1

H





 MAC Rebel // So.... i have been wanting a MAC lip stick forever now, but i still don't no what colour i want! Its coming into the colder times in Sydney NSW, so i'm looking for a winter pop colour for my lazy makeup winter days and nights! and i think i found it, Mac Rebel is perfect! the retail in Australia for $35 which is crazy for a lipstick! but i think I'm Definitely going to bite the bullet and purchase it! 

 Large Mimco pouch (black) // These mimco Pouches have been going around like crazy and i wonder why! they are to die for, I'm really loving them! Colette By Colette Hayman did a similar style to the Mimco pouch! but I'm dying for one! There just so easy to chuck your cards your phone and some money and go! 

 Too Faced Chocolate Bar // I'm always on the look out for my palettes! and this one is just too cute! I'm really loving the colours would be great for the winter time! 

 Hydraluron// Where are all my priceline sister at? you can not be a priceline customer without grabbing Hydraluron! i grab this everytime I'm in Priceline and never buy it! 




If any of yous have tried it PLEASE! leave a comment and let me know how it was for you?




Much love, Ambs xxx

Wish list #1



New Month new me isn't exactly my favourite phrase, I feel like every month i get into this kind of detox and just want to expand and change! ( promise i'm not going crazy)  new make up collection it  is. I love any excuse to revamp my make up collection so I've decided to make a massive list of all the things that I've had my eye on and tell you why I want them - these are the things that I'm saving up for this month.

1 -  Rimmel Stay Matte Powder - So many people have mentioned this product to me  and have said that I need to try it, so I must buy it and see what the hype is about - I'm currently hooked on L'oreal True Match Foundation and have been for months, So thankyou Lauren Curtis from Laurenbeauty on Youtube! you made me addicted! so lets see if anything can sway me away from it.

2 - Smash Box Try It Kit - I stumbled across this on there website and the last time I bought from Smash Box, I fell in love with quite a few items (particularly this lipgloss) 

3 - Naked 3 Palette - Of course Urban Decay's Naked 3 Palette is on my wish-list. It's insane that I don't own it yet, it's more than necessary as everyone knows that Urban Decay are the best brand for eye palettes. I cannot wait to get my hands on it and start playing around with pretty eye make up.

4 - Maybelline Falsies Mascara -  Maybelline's falsie mascara and Boujours Volumizer Mascara - I can't decide which one to buy, so hopefully they'll go on SALE!!!! and then I can buy both. They both made lashes look incredible and I'm actually on the look out for a new mascara. 

5 - Sugar Lip Polish - I love the idea of having nice polished lips, I knew that I needed to put it on my wishlist. Lush do some really similar lip polishes so I will probably get another one of those first.

6 - Shu Uemura Gold Eye Lash Curlers - I love my silver eye lash curlers from Benefit, apparently the best curlers on the market, but unfortunately I broke them so I'd love some new ones, I don't know why the gold ones appeal to me so much (probably because they're gold) but I think these would look incredible in my make up bag.

7 - Superfacialist Rose Intense Moisture Mask - I have seen so many guru's go on and on about this! i need to try it! I'm always on the look out for new products

8 - Origins No Puffery Cooling Roll On For Puffy Eyes - Another item that I need to read ! I desperately need something to get rid of puffy under eyes and this apparently does just the trick.

9 - Nars Laguna Bronzer - I've wanted this for years and I have no idea why I haven't just taken the plunge and bought it yet - it's pretty much the perfect bronzer. I am still yet to own anything from Nars!

10 - YSL Touche Eclat Foundation - Apparently this is very similar to Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation, but I love YSL's touch eclat under eye concealer so I'm 

11 - Rimmel Match Perfection - This is another foundation which Tanya Burr has recommended, I've read some incredible reviews of it and I'm all for finding the best high street products.

Has anyone tried any of the above products? What's on your wishlist this Month? Let me know if there's anything else that I should add to my list!

Lots of love, Ambs x
