Revlon ColourStay 16 Hour Eye Shadow - Reviewed by K


This eye shadow quad is in the colour 575 Delightful, it has a matte highlight shade, a goldish outer corner shade, a light pink all over lid shade and a dark shimmery brown for the crease. 

These eye shadows are very pigmented but are a little chalky if applied to heavily. The quad can be used for day or night time looks and can create many different looks for different occasions. On the back of this product is an indicator as to where to put the colours on the lid, this is a very good guide for beginners. 
There are 12 different colour combinations from brights to neutrals. This eye shadow quad has become my new go to palette and I will be looking for the different colour combination to purchase in the future.
R.R.P AU $25.95

K's NOTD Dorothy Who?


My manicure for the next few days is Dorothy Who? From China Glazes’ Wizard of Oz collection, this nail polish is in my Top 10 nail polish post. I love this colour for summer as it is a bright blue with beautiful silver shimmers. My bottle of this polish is past halfway now and I am thinking of buying some backups cause I love and use this colour so much. This polish is really thick and applies so smoothly and evenly it only really needs one coat but I do two to intensify the colour. I defiantly recommend the colour for people who love glitter, I am completely in love with this colour.

REVLON SUPERLUSTRIOUS MATTE LIPSTICK - REVIEW BY E

I also recently purchased this lipstick along with my Revlon gift sets and my Essie polishes. This lipstick was a steal at only $7! It’s RRP is $21.95 AUD, as soon as I saw these lipsticks at this price my head was screaming “Buy It, Buy It”. The packaging reminds me of a MAC lipstick and the item contains 4.2 grams of product. The finish of this product is absolutely gorgeous, it has a slight orange tinge to the overall nude colour. It applies really creamy and the consistency is really nice for a matte lipstick. It does exactly what the name says so if you are someone who prefers a shine to your lips I would recommend you apply a corresponding lip gloss. My personal favourite is the Australis colour inject lip gloss in the colour ‘contemporary’. Overall I am quite pleased with this product and am very happy I found it at a reasonable price. It was purchased at Cosmetics Fragrance Direct where they sell a whole variety of products at lower prices.
I would definately reccomend that you guys go and purchase this product cause i love it!

Enjoy your day

K's Top 10 Nail Polishes




I thought I would do this post to show a bit more of my style and what I like and show my all time favourite nail colours and what I recommend.
My all time favourite would be China Glazes’ Flip Flop Fantasy. It is the perfect neon pinky coral colour, it makes my hands look so tanned and I know I will be obsessed with this for summer.
Next would be China Glazes’ Dorothy Who?  It is the most beautiful glittery royal blue. It has silver glitters in it and doesn't feel clumpy or chunky on the nails. 
  I love Australis’s Peek-a-Boo it is a creamy pastel purple colour. This colour if perfect for all year round as it is neither a cool nor warm colour.  It only takes one coat and is so opaque.
The next colour is from Orly it is blue and aqua duo chrome called Its up to Blue. It is very sheer but can be applied over other colours for the duo chrome affect.
OMG I love this colour by China Glaze. It is holographic silver, it the most amazing colour in the sun, it gives off rainbow sheen.
The next colour is my go to nail polish, it is so opaque with only one coat. It is a colour when I am in a rush to paint my nails but it still turns out beautifully. It is L.A Girl, it doesn't have a name but is a metallic purple with silver shimmers.
I have two Ulta 3 colours in my top 10, the first is Mojito, it is neon aqua green, and it is a creamy finish that is very opaque but is a little streaky so it takes patience to get a nice finish.
The second Ulta 3 polish is called Party Shoes it is a medium pink with coral undertones. It is sheer but is opaque after 2 thick coats, it is the perfect summer pink.
The next colour is a metallic silver from Rubi Shoes just called Silver. This colour is so shiny and applies so beautifully.  It is very cheap and I think I got it for $2 which is good for the quality that the nail polish is.
The last polish is from Nutrimetics, it is called Hibiscus, it is the most beautiful summer colour. It is a mid toned orange with gold shimmers in it. The formula of this polish is great it is very opaque and applies evenly with only one coat.

I love every nail polish I own but these are some of my absolute favourites. These nail polishes are my go to colours and are mostly on my nails all the time.

E's TAG- 10 Products I Would Repurchase

10 Products I Would Repurchase!



Yay i am really excited to finally do this tag! These products that i have included in my tag are the products i would repurchase straight away without even thinking twice about them.

My first favourite is the Australis 'Nudist' Palette, as i am sure you all know i have talked about this many times before. It is the perfect palette to create any eye look and has really awesome pigmentation of colours. Sadly though this product is no longer available as it was a Limited Edition product :( . I will be sure to keep my eye open to see if i can pick up another one sometime soon.

My next product i only recently re-discovered how much i actually missed it. It is the max factor xperience foundation in the colour sugar cane. I really love this product, it is really lightweight on the skin and gives the perfect amount of coverage for a foundation. Prior to this i was using the first edition of the garnier BB cream and i have only really noticed how oily it can actually get on my skin. I switched back to my xperience foundation to see if that was any better and i immediately noticed how much i missed it!

The Rimmel 'Stay Matte' powder is one of my all time favourite powders along with the Australis ' fresh and flawless fixed powder'. I really like the rimmel powder because it dosent apply an extra layer of foundation to my skin when i apply it over foundation or BB cream. This is great because it dosent apply thickly and mattifies the whole face to remove oily or shiny areas. This i what i use when i apply the garnier BB cream to my face and it removes the oil from my face it is also a great powder to use when 'setting' your face after foundation.

The next product i have is the e.l.f blush in the colour 'blushing rose' . It is the perfect blush for any look wheither it be a day time casual look or a dressy night time look. i love this blush because it gives my skin the perfect pink flush of colour as well as adding a slight shimmer of gold.

My maybelline eye studio gel liner is my absolute favourite eyeliner i own. It is really simple to apply to the eyes and gives any eye a dramatic or subtle look depending on what you aim to achieve.

The other maybelline product i have is the eye studio 'colour tatto' in the colour 'bad to the bronze'. Oh my god you guys i cannot tell you how much i love this product! It is my favourite shade out of the whole entire collection, it can easily be used as a base product or other shaddows can be added to it to create more dramatic looks. (For more info on the colour tattoos visit our first review on the maybelline colour tattoo products.)

My next and most newest edition to my makeup collection is the covergirl 'lash blast volume' mascara. Wow, this product really lengthens and volumises my lashes making them more visible and dramatic. You can apply a thin coat of this for an everyday look or you can really build it up to create dramatic lashes.

Another product that i rave about is the essence 'long lasting stay all day' concealer. it is the perfect creamy concealer that glides onto your skin and blends really nicely. This product covers up any under eye circles or blemishes/redness i have.

One of my most cherished products is the maybelline baby lips. I have just about every colour and love every single one of these lip balms. They are the perfect moisturiser for your lips and are able to remove dry or rough skin leaving you with beautiful lips.

My final product is also one that i have only just added to my collection not too long ago. I have already fallen in love with this. It is the 'revlon lip butter' in the colour '090 sweet tart'. This product is the perfect lipstick in my opinion. It moisturises your lips as well as acting as a lipstick. This colour is the perfect pink-red shade that complements my skin tone quite nicely.

As always if you have a question or comment feel free to leave it in the comment section below. If you have any enquiries please dont hesitate to contact us on blushingbeautiesau@gmail.com . If you would like any further reviews or updates on any information feel free to let us know.

Hope you enjoy your day!

K's TAG- 10 Products I Would Repurchase


I have wanted to do this tag for a while, I am a little late to jump on the band wagon but I thought I would do it anyway. So the story for this tag is if all your makeup is stolen what would be the 10 products you would have to go out and buy straight away.


Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector – this is in the colour 02 light/clair I love this products as it is just the right amount of coverage for everyday and it does clog my pores or feel heavy on my skin. This product is very affordable and I use it every day so I would be lost without it.

Maybelline Fit Me Concealer – this product is so creamy and smooth, I use I on my under eyes and on blemishes and it blends in easily. This product matches my skin tone perfectly and blends very well with my Garnier BB cream. It is in the colour 10 light.

Australis Fresh and Flawless Pressed Powder – this is known to be comparable to the MAC Studio Fix Pressed Powder, I love this powder it is a perfect match for my skin tone and makes my skin look so flawless. It is in the colour deep natural, there are only 3 colours in the range but they are very sheer and blend naturally into the skin.

 Maybelline Baby Lips – there are many flavours in this range and I love them all but my favourite would have to be mango pie, it smells so yummy. I have nearly finished my first tube and have already bought a back up. It leaves my lips so moisturised and soft with only one application. Since I bought this product I never go anywhere without one, there is one in early every bag I own :)

Essence Get Big Lashes Volume Boost Mascara – this mascara is very good quality for the price, it gives my lashes so much length and volume with just a thin coat, I wear this nearly every day.

Australis Colour Inject Lipstick- These lipsticks are so creamy and apply so smoothly. They are very affordable and come in wide variety of colours and finishes. My favourite would be Hula, it is a coral pink colour wit orange tones. This colour suits my skin tone perfectly and goes with everything I wear, I use this at every opportunity I can.

Milani Eyeshadow – this is the perfect all over lid colour for me it is in 22 Sheer Sand. It is a metallic light brown. It is very pigmented and goes on the lid evenly with no creases. I use this in nearly every eye look I do.

 Australis Nudist Palette- it is the Australian equivalent to the Naked Palette, it has beautiful colours in a variety of shades. It is very versatile and can turn a day time look to night time easily with one product. It is a product I could not live without.

Covergirl Lipstain – this is in the colour 400 Everbloom Kiss. It gives the perfect light wash of colour that lasts all day.  These lipstains can be applied lightly or darker for a dramatic look. I use this everyday for school as a light wash of colour as I don’t like my lips naturally.

 Australis Eye Primer – this is the only eyeshadow primer I own, so I use this every time I use Eyeshadow. If I didn’t use this product my eyeshadow would crease every time. This is a life saver for me.

NOTD- ESSIE 764 LADY LIKE

I just recently purchased this polish 2 days ago. This was my favourite polish out of the ones i purchased. I really like this nail colour as it is a taupe colour with a slight lilac tinge. I have nothing like this in my collection and it was my first purchase of an Essie polish. It is a really natural nude colour that looks great on the nails if you want to go for a subtle look. I am really happy with the quality of this product also as it applied very smoothly and i only needed one coat!
Enjoy your day!

LoL Cosmetics - Review by K


Last week I went shopping at Kmart. I was looking at the makeup section and spotted this little section that I hadn’t seen before. It is a brand called ‘lol’ or ‘lots of love’ all the products were $3, I just thought I would get a couple of the products to try as I thought they would be a crappy cheapo brand. I was surprised when I got home and tried them, they swatch so pigmented and apply very smoothly. I got three products to try a blush duo, a 5 set Eyeshadow and a lip gloss.

The blush is in ‘coral’, it is a duo and both colours have some shimmer the one on the left is a more orange coral colour with lots of gold shimmer that catches the sun beautifully, the one on the right is a pinker coral that has a little bit of gold shimmer but it is only noticeable in bright light. Both of these colours are very pigmented and apply very smoothly.





















The Eyeshadow set is in the colour ‘see a penny’ the colours are gold brown and copper tones. These shadows are very pigmented and apply easily to the eyes, they are easily bendable and can be built up for a more pigmented look. The colours are quite similar to the Maybelline Eye studio ‘Give Me Gold’ quad so if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to it this is it.






















The lip gloss is quite sheer but has the best smell, it smells like those strawberry lollies with the jelly in the middle, if you haven’t tried them you are missing out :) . The colour of the lip gloss is ‘pomegranate’ I don’t know how the colour of the lip gloss relates to the colour of pomegranate but it is a nice colour, it is a good formula that isn’t sticky or watery it is the perfect consistency.


 Overall I think I will go back and purchase more from this brand it is very affordable and very good quality for the price. There is a good variety in colours and a range of products from lipstick, foundation, bronzer, liquid eyeliner and much more. The only store I have seen sell this is Kmart, if I find it anywhere else I will update you.

This or That! - TAG by E

Blush or Bronzer?
Blush i like my face to have a natural flush of colour on it to keep it fresh

Lipgloss or Lipstick?
A couple of years ago i would have definately opted for the lipgloss but these days i really enjoy wearing different shades of lipstick on my lips

Matte or Shimmer eyeshadow?
Most of the shaddows i have in my makeup collection have some sort of shimmer in them anyway, it dosent really bother me that much so i would have to go shimmer eyeshadow.

Gel, Liquid, Cream or Pencil eyeliner?
Gel eyeliner for sure, i find it really easy to apply and gives the smoothest finish. I really love the Maybelline EyeStudio Gel liner.

Foundation or concealer?
Well at the moment my face routine dosent actually consist of foundation, i apply the garnier bb cream then concealer with a finish of the rimmel stay matte powder. So for this choice i would choose concealer.

Liquid or powder foundation?
As i mentioned above i dont currently use foundation but prior to that i was absolutely in love with the maxfactor xperience weightless foundation which is in liquid form.

Neutral or statement eyes?
It really depends on the occasion but moslty i find myself wearing fairly neutral eyes.

Pressed or loose eyeshaddows?
Definately pressed! loose eyeshadows are way to messy for me.

Waterproof or Non-waterproof mascara?
I have never personally tried a good waterproof mascara so if you know a good one i would love to know. so my answer is non-waterproof.

Brushes, Sponges or Fingers?
i use a mixture of brushes and fingers. I use my fingers to apply concealer and bb cream while brushes I use for all eyeshaddow needs as well and blush and face powder.

Powder, cream or liquid highlighter?
I am not really into highlighters that much, i dont like shiny finishes to my face.

I TAG ANYONE WHO READS THIS :)
