Inspired by Nicole Richie's childhood, his versatile scent can be worn throughout different seasons, bright and pretty enough for summer and spring yet sexy and adult enough to get you through those colder months. It is feminine but I would also describe it as slightly masculine with hints of Vanilla, Morrocan Rose, Golden Amber, Blackberry and Sandalwood. 

If you're not a fan of the scent, the beautiful bottle alone is worth the purchase (but let's be honest - you are going to fall in love with this one!).

Getting into the warmers months, my lips begin to need the love of a good lip balm. The Nivea Lip Butter is perfect for me because it melts quickly into lips after application, which means there is not much time for me to go ahead and accidentally lick it off.

There are 3 different varieties of the Lip Butters. I have mine in Caramel Cream and it smells AMAZING. The product doesn't have a taste (which is probably a good thing or we would be scooping it out of the tub to eat!). You can also purchase the unscented version or Vanilla and Macadamia. 

The formula contains the following goodies:

shea butter and hydra IQ

long lasting hydration

almond oil

helps to re-hydrate dry lips

The product does a great job of leaving my lips smooth and hydrated. I apply the product before I apply my makeup, allowing time for it to sink in before applying lip products at the end of the process.

However, if you apply to much product you will notice that it leaves a white sheen and it can be a little difficult to rub in (as seen in the last photo). Start off small and build if more is needed. 

I purchase my Nivea Lip Butter in Caramel Cream from Priceline for $4.19 (on sale at the moment - reg price $5.69)

L'oreal NutriLift Gold Foundation

I'm sure we all took advantage of the recent L'oreal sale at Priceline - am I right? I was in the market for a new foundation and went along to try some out. Recently a lot of my foundations had been turning a little orange during the day. I actually had my eyes on the Infallible foundation but I was steered towards the NutriLift by the lovely makeup artist. 

I was matched as shade 150 'Creamy Beige'. It is an anti-ageing foundation and while I wasn't particularly looking for anything with anti ageing properties, it can't hurt to start early!

The NutriLift foundation contains 5 anti-ageing ingredients such as collagen  Vitamin C and pro retinol. It also ticks the sun protection box with a massive SPF20 included! The foundation claims to reduce wrinkles and fine lines overtime, helping your skin to appear smoother and more radiant. 

Whilst I haven't noticed any difference in any lines or wrinkles that I may have at the age of 24, I do love the radiant finish it gives my skin with each use. The formula is creamy and has a slight sunscreen scent to it. I found that the coverage was quite good however if you want something fuller, it does look quite nice over the top of a BB cream as well. 

However, for beauties on a budget you will need to take the price tag in consideration because at $39.95 this foundation isn't cheap!
