I had been saving this photo for a review, but when I’d finished testing these I really didn’t have a blog post worth of things I wanted to address. The long and short of it was that I really enjoyed trying out these two @ellabacheaus moisturisers. The jelly moisture shot is great both for summer when you want something lightweight (particularly if you have oily skin) or if you have oily skin and want a great moisturiser that won’t weigh you down. It worked fantastically for me on oily days, but during dry times I switched to the other (I’m combo/sensitive). The hydra cationic skin elixir is slightly heavier but not too much so - I think it’d be a great winter option for oily or combo skin. Something in it, however, seemed to trigger my rosacea so it wasn’t the perfect match for my skin, but the friend I passed it onto loves it! Goes to show how skin care is always so personal 🤷‍♀️ just because something does/doesn’t work for one person doesn’t mean everyone will have the same reaction. I’m generally a fan of Ella Bache based on everything I’ve tried so far, so I’m curious where they’re headed to next. ⠀⠀ These were kindly gifted by @thearcfactory. • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyblogger #beauty

How pretty was the latest Mecca Beauty Loop level 3 box? I still haven’t tried the retinol yet as I’m waiting to run out of the one I’m using but I’m very excited to try it out. Today is going to be a multiple coffee day 😴 I’m prioritising sleep and going to bed so early but I’m still really lacking in energy. I’ve had lots of extra work this week, which is fantastic for my budget, but proving to be a little bit harder on my alertness. How’s your week going? • • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyblogger #beauty #meccabeautyloop #meccabeautyjunkie #meccacosmetica #meccamaxima @meccacosmetica @meccamaxima

The last of the @patmcgrathreal palettes I bought 😄 this one is a warm toned bronzes. Of all the palettes I purchased, this is probably the least original - the colours are most neutral and every day. It is, nevertheless, a beautiful palette and a great every day look and easy to go from day to night. Sometimes I just like a good neutral eye. What’s your go-to look? • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyblogger #beauty #patmcgrath #patmcgrathlabs

Maaaaaaaaaaan today was long but satisfying. I’m tired but it was really productive. I got a lot done at work, got a lot of uni work done and worked my side hustle too. With that, my reviews are all up to date for other blogs, my main job is all up to date, my side hustle is up to date, uni is up to date and the only thing I could feasibly be working on is this blog, which is also up to date for a few more days! I do wish I’d incorporated some exercise too but it’s too damn hot outside. With that in mind, throwing it waaaaaay back today to when I used to live right by the beach and jogs along the jetty were a lot more regular! (Yes, believe it or not I did used to jog on occasion. Shocking I know.) How do you celebrate a job well done? • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyblogger #beauty #adelaide #sagreat #seesouthaustralia #walking #hiking

I am craving coffee right now like you would not believe but I’m trying to be good and not drink caffeine at least three hours before bed. But man, I tell you what, an iced coffee would be heaven right about now. In other news I’m really happy with myself because I just did some work I was procrastinating from doing. I still have a tonne more work to do, but we’re going to call it progress anyway 😂 what’s your go-to procrastination tool? • • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #food #adelaidefood #adelaidefoodie #foodblogger #exploreadelaide #sagreat

I’m watching reviews of products I want and can’t afford! Why do I do this? Beats me. Here’s a look I did last week when I was playing around with shadows. This was actually a REALLY glittery and REALLY reflective look but it didn’t show up well on camera. If you’re interested though I caught a little of the sparkle on my stories and it’s in my highlights under the makeup section (second to last in it). This was a mix of the Marc Jacobs Smartorial palette with the Pat McGrath Dark Star 006 ultra suede brown kit (so yes all the blue came from the MJ palette which begs the question why I also bought the ultraviolet blue kit when I clearly didn’t need it). From memory, I used the black cream shadow from the kit and then used the glitter pigments to create the shine (which you can’t see anyway haha) and the rest was MJ. Lips are smashbox and brows are hourglass. What’s your favourite colour to play with in eyeshadow and lips? • • • • • • #howtogirldotnet #blogger #adelaideblogger #lifestyle #lifestyleblogger #bbloggersau #bbloggers #bblogger #bloggersunitedau #discoverunder10k #australianblogger #aussiebbs #instabeautyau #mua #flatlay #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyblogger #beauty #patmcgrathlabs #patmcgrath #marcjacobs #marcjacobssmartorial #smartorial #blueeyeshadow #bluelipstick #hourglass #smashbox
