Review: Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayon

I just love it when a product creates hype on various social media networks, I love the thrill of waiting for the product to hit the shelves and checking my local outlets waiting for the product to rear it's ugly/or beautiful head. To me this is exciting!

One of my latest acquisition was just like that, I eventually found this on a weekend away in Canberra. It was also on sale, so bonus!



The Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons are not only a beautiful product, but an absolute steal! $14.95AUD for 3 wearable colours, this little set certainly won't break the bank and is a great introduction into the lip crayon products we've been seeing from all different brands. 

They are smooth, tinted and smell delicious! 



I also love the fact the packaging is a wind up applicator, I'm not a fan of the gloss crayons you need to sharpen... I don't get how that works anyway? 

The 3 shades in the set are -

Sundae - Neutral, I thought I'd dislike this shade the most out of the 3, but in fact it's my favourite! I find this to be the most pigmented on my lips and is such a great everyday shade.

Macaron - A Red tint, gives the lips a nice flushed colour. I love these sort of colours, I feel they always brighten up my look.

Cupcake - Light pink, such a cute bubblegum pink. I personally like brighter pinks but this is still cute and would look awesome with a dark smokey eye.

Be quick because these sets are limited edition! I'm kind of hoping they bring them out again in more colours...brights for summer would be amazing (FOA take note!).

Face of Australia is stocked at Priceline, Kmart, Big W & Various Chemists. International readers can also purchase Face of Australia online at Fashion Addict, however I couldn't see these on the website just yet.





This product was purchased with my own money, obviously since I went searching in another state for it :P

Exciting News.... Dum Dum Dah Dum....

Sorry I've been MIA for the past few weeks, i've been busy...visting cloud 9 and also got sick :( HOWEVER!

Very quickly... I HAVE NEWS!

I very rarely have news, you know when people ask you "what's new with you?" I never have a decent response to that, does anyone else ever find that?

Now I do!

I'm Engaged!

Yep my lovely boyfriend (now Fiance') proposed... After 9 years he's making an honest woman out of me it seems. We are very excited about planning this big and special day!

I won't be turning this into a wedding blog, but I may do some wedding related posts. I've already started my wedding inspiration board on Pinterest which I was so excited about getting to do :)

Here is the lovely location that he proposed, we saw 2 Whales that day! I've never seen a Whale so it was so special to me, and we were lucky to have a beautifully sunny Sydney day (such a rarity!)



I haven't gotten my real ring yet, he's letting me pick that and i'm currently debating on a mined diamond or a man made diamond (ethical reasons...and cost!). In the meantime I have a little placeholder, just made from CZ :)


Here is a mega cheesey picture of Shane and I, we were responding to a picture message that my aunty and cousin sent us...I look like shit but it was a big day (and I was getting sick!).
