Mecca Maxima Haul

November Tag

Here is a quick tag I found on the internets!

On my nightstand you'll find:  A lamp, flowers and candles - not beauty products!

The literary character I'm most like is: I can not think of one, but if we delve into movies I really related to Angelique from the french film 'Romantics Anonymous  which you should go and watch right now!

I'm currently obsessed with:  Marc Jacobs Honey Fragrance. I may do an updated perfume collection very soon!

My favorite superhero is: It was always the Green Lantern but even though I didn't see the movie I feel Hollywood ruined him for me. Plus I never liked Hal Gordon, it was Kyle Rayner all the way for me!

Favorite beauty product of 2013: Eeeeek! Probably my Nars Adults Content Palette. 

If I could have dinner with anyone dead or alive:  Andrew! But I guess if he was busy I would love to dine with Emma Watson (to make Andrew jealous of course haha) or Zoe from Zoella :)

Winter is coming, how do you prep your skin for battle?  Technically Summer is coming in Australia, but when I head to Japan's winter I with take my Origins Ultracream (I think that the name!?). Thick night creams get my dry skin through anything. 

My perfect date night makeup consists of: Smokey purple/black eyes, heavy liquid eyeliner, falsies and a bright red lip. Go hard or go home!

My go-to skin-beautifying snack/drink is: Water? That's all I really can do to help my troublesome skin. 

My TV boyfriend is: Sawyer from Lost. He can call me any nickname he likes....

If my evening clutch could hold only one beauty item it would be:  I am really lazy with topping up my makeup through out the night, but probably just my lipstick (which I would then never put on). 

One beauty tip I would pass on to my fictional daughter is:  Have fun with it, but if your going to go crazy make sure you do a practice go first. Wow, typical mum advice. 

The most nostalgic item from my childhood is: Peanut, my bean filled wombat. 

My favorite show of the moment is:  Lost. Yeah 2004 is so old school I know, but I have never watch the show in its entirety so Andrew and I have been hitting up his box set almost every night. 

My favorite quote is: I am not a very quote-motivated person. I do like it when someone says I love you and means it, whether it is to me or not. That line gets me every time.

Mecca Maxima Beauty Loop

Mecca Maxima has changed the way their  Beauty Loop works. 

They are now giving out gift boxes, which depending on your level, has multiple goodies in it for you to sample. For this very first box, as a level 2, I revived four items. 

The first was the Nars Soft Touch Shadow Pencil, a mini size in the colour Aigle Noir (swatch below). The pencil is very creamy, with fair pigmentation, but is not jet black. The mini size is decent enough, and can be used as a shadow or thick liner for smudging. The full size retails for $39.00AUD.  

The second sample was a travel size of the Soap & Glory Hand Food, and luxurious hand cream which I already have the full size of. This retails for $5.95AUD. 

The third sample was a 7.5ml version of the Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment  I am very excited to try this out and will give a review shortly. The full size retails for $98.00AUD.  

Finally we have the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Eye Cream. I am wanting a new eye cream, but I not too sure how a sample this small with provide much of an example. The full size retails for $55.00AUD.  

Pretty good mix of products and decent sizes, thanks Mecca!

LUSH haul

Oh Lush how I love you so. Especially during the Christmas time. Those bath ballistics get me every time. This post is actually sponsored by my bf, aka he gave it all to me as a gift for our 3 years of being together. I know this is a beauty post but its seems weird that I have dated him for so long. Not bad weird, just odd as I have never been with anyone longer than 3 months. 

Happy 3 years Andrew!
