Review : Frank Body & Hello Hair ♡

Hey Guys, sorry for the delay with blogging and my youtube channel! I have been so out of it and haven't been feeling to well, I'm still feeling under the weather but okay to sit down and write a blog post for you! 

So, I wanted to do a review on these products that have sky rocketed over social media! and they are definitely worth the hype! I have tried these for about a month! The products actually do benefit your skin and hair! 

Frank coconut coffee scrub 

frank coffee scrub is packed with 200g of coconut, grapeseed & lots of other good stuff.

He will target cellulite, stretch marks, psoriasis, varicose veins, eczema and acne with roasted and ground arabica coffee beans.

then  moisturise and tone your skin with grapeseed oil, and use coconut oil to hydrate your skin and tend to any imperfections. Then take coconut flakes, brown sugar, jojoba beads & sea salt and gently smooth your lumps and bumps, and use vitamins & minerals to work wonders from the outside in.

I have noticed a big difference I only use this one a week because it is very exfoliating! I use these on my stretch marks and I can really notice a diffence in my skin and body and I notice a big difference when I use Frank before fake tanning everything is just so much smoother! 

Frank is really worth the hype and the price! Plus it is Free shipping for Australian buyers! this bad boy is $17.95 and the original one is $14.95 the coconut one just has a lush smell to it because im not a fan of coffee but it smells good with the coconut! 

You can find frank at-http://au.frankbody.com/

Hello Hair Hydrating Mask

Hello Hair is a hydrating treatment which uses the benefit of Coconut, Argan and Almond oils. I honestly don't touch any of my other more expensive treatments because this does everything i need it to do with in 15 minutes! My hair is not my natural colour it is bleached and highlighted with blondes and every blonde knows that your hair is dry and damaged and its so hard to get your dyed blonde hair to a perfect condition, i have struggled  with getting my hair healthy because I have been back and forth with blonde and brown I have been every colour under the sun it's crazy! so my hair is very damaged! but this treatment is doing great for my hair it is alright for blondes and doesn't make your hair yellow or brassy which every blonde struggles with! but i definitely recommend this product to my blonde haired girls and all the other coloured hair girls this treatment will so great things to your hair you wont every remember what dead, dry hair is!
I use this on my dry hair when I'm going to wash it so before I wash my hair i rub Hello Hair in my hair an even amount aiming on my ends, once brushed threw i wrap my hair in glad wrap and let it heat up for about 30-40 minutes for extra hydration!  then i will shower and wash my hair as normal! and then i will blow dry my hair and wow it is really is soft and like a cloud!

you get 100g for $15.00 and you get free shipping aswell which is just amazing! makes it more worth it! Hello Hair is Australian owned and 100% natural and vegan friendly! 

You can find Hello Hair at6 -  http://hellohair.com.au/products/hello-hair-hydrating-mask

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 4 Fake Tans ♡

Hey Dolls, 

So I'm very obsessed with being tanned! I'm not naturally, I'm very white :(  Which i hate so much! It's so hard to find a decent tan that last and doesn't make you look like an oompa loompa or worse! Now I have had my fair share of horrible fake tans, my chest and my neck is very dry! No matter what I do it's always dry! Costume jewelry never lasts long because of my dry chest and fake tan doesn't stay on my chest very long without getting super blotchy and flaky always before the rest of my body so I never have a fake tan on very long because of that ( 2-4 days) and I really hate more then anything! So I have tried to find a very moisturizing fake tan that last! So here are 4 of the fake tans that i have tested ( there all empty) and I can honestly say they lasted between 1-3 weeks before going blotching and me having to exfoliate! I use the in shower moisturizer ( nivea in-shower rich body lotion - very dry skin) then I moisturizer with The Dream Cream from lush, and it has been making my skin so soft and my fake tans longer lasting! 

#1 St.Tropez Dark ($39.99) - So I brought this at a priceline sale for $20 usually $39.99. I have always wanted to try it but never wanted to spent $40 on a fake tan! I'm glad I picked it up in the sale because it is so worth $40 it's such a nice colour and give such a nice glow and is very moisturizing which is great for my body! I'm not a big pan of spray tans i prefer moose! but the colour guard is very true and and very identifying so you can make use you  never get lines or uneven parts! this product is worth the hype and if you can afford it's worth it 100% 

2# Bondi Sands Dark ($19.99) - This is my 6th bottle of this tan and I'm so inlove with it! and the price of it for what you get makes it even better! The colour is very dark! darker then the ST. Tropez one but it definitely fades and gives you a nice colour after a couple of days! It's a very matte colour i don't really get a glow with it, but can definitely say it is very compatible with the St. Tropez one. This one is a tad more drying on me but I still can't get enough of it! 

Le Tan Deep Bronze ($12.39) - This fake tan will always have a spot in my collection know matter what! this is my old school tan that I use to use back in the day and still use now! When the colour says deep bronze it isn't kidding its very bronze, abit on the orange side but once you shower and wash the colour guard off you get a nice bronze colour this doesn't last as long as i would hope! but I love to use it if I'm going out and want to be brown! my chest hates this products it goes very blotchy quickly so i usally don't use alot of it on my chest! but if you are on a budget this is perfect! 

Lacura Instant Tan Deep Bronze - Well my mum brought this for me from aldi i would like to say for under $10! this is great to spray and go, i really like the colour it doesn't stay on very long but you definitely get a great glow and a nice beachy tan with it! I'm not a fan of the spray it doesn't come out in a nice consistence it like spits at you but definitely you can work with it! If you can get your hands on this one definitely do so!

Let me know what your top 4 fake tans are?

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,♡
