How are you guys doing today? I hope you are well :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I decided to make a purchase off iHerb last week because I received a voucher to use and I thought why not take advantage of it since I wanted a few items already. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I have purchased from them in the past, although it was over a year ago. I have had no issues with iHerb whatsoever. They are a fantastic company! With great prices which are fairly reasonable considering I live in Australia and everything is so expensive. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Recently they started showing products in AU pricing. Which is great! Also the shipping is really affordable. It's only around $4 for standard international shipping and $8 for express. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You can purchase make-up, brushes, skincare, hair care, vitamins etc. They sell a variety of products, for a good price. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now onto the haul! I purchased quite a few brushes since they retail for over double the amount here in Australia.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">I just put this on my eyelids and it goes on so easily! I absolutely love it. I think I found my holy grail eye shadow primer. It's so affordable too! You can also find this at Kmart I believe. Although it's more expensive.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I forgot to take a photo of this! Sorry for the web picture. But this is one of their best sellers. The reviews of this face mask are all great! I just tested this and my face feels amazing! It hardened almost instantly and turned into a clay like substance. It didn't feel uncomfortable at all which is fantastic. I have sensitive skin and this mask didn't irritate my face.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">iHerb also included a pen in my order as you can see above. It's pretty cute to keep in your bag. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Overall I think iHerb is a great company with good quality products. The shipping is phenomenal, I placed my order Friday night and received it on Monday afternoon. Although I paid for express because it included insurance and a tracking number. </span><br />

Hey it's that time of the month for favourites! I thought since I haven't done a favourites post, lets do on this month. I can't believe it's already May! Where has this year gone? I swear... it's almost halfway through the year and then by the time you know it, it will be Christmas again! </div>

<b>1. Original Source Vanilla Raspberry Shower Gel</b><br />
I absolutely love this! It smells amazing. It lathers up pretty well and does the job. This is very affordable and you can often get this from your local supermarket on sale.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub</b><br />
This is a really great product! It's edible, tastes like bubblegum and it works! I find that you don't need much product at all. So it lasts quite a while. I think it's worth paying the extra for a cruelty free product. Highly recommended!<br />
<br />
<b>3. Sukin Sensitive Facial Moisturiser</b><br />
I was looking for a moisturiser which isn't harsh on my skin and this is definitely it! It doesn't feel heavy, it's very light and non greasy. It doesn't have a strong smell either. It ticks all the boxes in my opinion. What more could you want? I got this on sale from Priceline.<br />
<br />
<b>4. Vaseline Spray Moisturiser in Shea</b><br />
I'm usually a person that would rather take a shortcut if I could. So that's why I love this product! You just spray it on your arms and legs and you're pretty much done. You have to rub the moisturise in a bit but it's very good for saving time in the mornings when you want that extra 5 minutes of sleep.<br />
<br />
<b>5. Soap & Glory - The Righteous Butter</b><br />
I love the smell of this! I love all soap & glory's products really but I got this last year for Christmas and I've been using it after I come out of the shower everyday and I still have more than half of the tub left! It definitely has left my skin feeling smooth. Not to mention the pleasant smell. It's perfect! <br />
<br />
<b>6. T.N Dickinson's Witch Hazel Toner</b><br />
Everyone raves about this product and I can see why! I love it. I use it after my cleanser at night and it just gets rid of the extra oils and build up after a long day. I have seen improvements after using this for the last 6 months or so. My face isn't as greasy and I'm not breaking out as much. Great product!<br />
<br />
<b>7. Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Hand Moisturiser</b><br />
I got this for Christmas in a little gift pack. I love the smell, it's so fresh and relaxing. It's just a go-to hand moisturiser that I keep in my bag. It's small and practical while doing it's job.<br />
<br />
<b>8. Nivea Lip Butter - Vanilla & Macadamia</b><br />
I cannot say enough how much this lip butter has helped my lips! It also smells amazing. Makes me want to eat it. I use it everyday morning and night. The only concern is using your finger to apply the product, but apart from that it's great!<br />
<br />
<b>9. Gwen Stefani Harajuku - Love Perfume</b><br />
I received this as a birthday present last year. I love this fragrance, it's very sweet and fruity. Almost identical to grapes. Although I found that it doesn't last as long as I would like it to... however I still love it! I find myself picking this everyday over my other perfumes at the moment.<br />
<br />
That's all my favourites for this month! Hope you enjoyed reading it. Let me know what your favourite product of the month is!<br />

I didn't expect to have many products this month because I've already thrown out heaps without the intention of doing an empties post. My apologies, I'll make up for it next month.<br />
<br />
This month I had hair care, make up and skin care. But after I gathered all the products together I noticed I had more skin products more than anything. Perhaps it's because I bought them all at the same time.<br />

Urban Fudge - Iced Raspberry & Vanilla </span></span></b><b style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Hair Spray </span></span></b><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 1.1em;">This was such an amazing hair spray! Not only because of the strong hold it gave me but also the smell! It was so pleasant and yummy. I usually hate the smell of </span></span><span style="line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">hair sprays</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 1.1em;">. It was also very affordable and it's easy to find as they sell them at your local Woolworths supermarket.</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;"><b>Would I repurchase this? </b>Yes!</span><br />
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></b>
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">2. Batiste Dry Shampoo - Fruity & Cheeky Cherry</span></span></b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Now this dry shampoo has quite a nice scent when you spray it. It works well once it's in your hair, making it easier for you when you're in a rush and just need to give your hair that extra shine. It didn't leave the white powder so harshly compared to other dry shampoos I've tried. But I still have yet to find the perfect dry shampoo for my hair. Although I still liked it!</span></span><br />
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Would I repurchase this? </b>Yes.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">I bought this shampoo because I needed something to control my outburst of dandruff. This definitely did the job, it was fast and very effective. It smelled lovely and also lasted me around 2 months. Now that I don't have dandruff any more I can purchase another shampoo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><br /></span></b></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><b>Would I repurchase this? </b>Yes, I would. But not at the moment since I don't have dandruff.</span></span><br />

<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Simple Kind To Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser</span></span></b></span><br />
This moisturiser is very light, which I love about it. It wasn't harsh on my skin when applied and it felt as if I didn't have any moisturiser on at all. Which is great for people who have sensitive skin. It felt refreshing and the smell was faint and not over powering. Says it's supposed to last for 12 hours. I'm not sure if it actually did but it did last me throughout the day. In conclusion I really liked this moisturiser.<br />

<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser</span></span></b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">I got this cleanser a while ago. I needed something natural for my face, since it's so sensitive but also oily. After I used the cleanser, it made my face feel a bit tight afterwards but it took off all the </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">oils. Which is what I wanted. It says it's soap free and dermatologist tested, so it must be good for the skin.</span><br />

<b style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">Would I repurchase this? </b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">Maybe, after I finish my other cleansers.</span><br />

<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">6. St Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Scrub</span></span></b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Bought this scrub last year in one of the 40% off skincare products at Priceline. I saw online that a lot of people had said this scrub was good. I like it a lot! It was very gentle on the skin. </span></span><br />
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></b><b style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">Would I repurchase this? </b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17.600000381469727px;">Yes!</span><br />
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></b>
<b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">7. Smartskin Scented Cleansing Wipes</span></span></b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This are just your average make up wipes. I grabbed from on special for $1 from Woolworths because I needed some more. These are quite nice, they do their job and don't dry out. I would have probably preferred the unscented version since but overall, decent make up wipes for the price.</span></span><br />

This post is dedicated to NYX products. I will be doing both a review and swatches for each product.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><b>The NYX Butter Gloss</b></span><br />
<br />
In my opinion the NYX Butter Gloss is the best lip gloss in the market. Not only for the quality but also for the affordability! It retails in Australian Targets for $9.99 but you can buy them online for only $5 if you buy in bulk.<br />
<br />
When applied they go on glossy and evenly. It comes with your standard, wand to apply the gloss. They smell like vanilla sort lollies. I don't know how to describe it but it makes it want to eat it! They have a very pleasant smell if you ask me.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">These jumbo eye pencils go on very creamy. I'm still up in the air about if I like these or not.. I'm not really reaching for them as much as other eye shadows. I mean the colours are still fantastic! I particularly love Milk Lait for the inner corners of my eyes. It brightens it up instantly, without it looking over the top. These colours really go well with each other. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">I know that Milk Lait and Cottage Cheese look very similar. The difference being one gives off a matte finish and the other a shimmery finish. Personally it depends on the look you're going for... Both colours suit any style.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: center;">You can find NYX products at your local Target or online from <a href="http://www.cherryculture.com/cosmetics/brands/nyx/10" target="_blank">Cherry Culture</a>.</span></div>

It takes ages to wash them and clean them properly. What if there was a product that made your life easier? While saving you time and money. You must be thinking, where can you find such a thing? Is it even real? I can tell you that actually does exist! It's called the Daiso Detergent for Puff and Sponge.<br />
<br />

This product is not only the cheapest thing on the market but it's also the best cleaning detergent! I call that hitting two birds with one stone. You save money and time.<br />
<br />
The only downfall is that it might be hard to find. Where I live, there's about two Daiso stores close by. But the detergent is usually always out of stock! I mean for ONLY $2.80, that's right.. you heard me correct. If you happen to find this in stock, I recommend that you buy a few. They sell like hot cakes.<br />
<br />
Now let me show you a demonstration. You see how dirty my brush and beauty blender is right? I kid you not it only takes around 10 seconds for it to be clean without actually doing any work.<br />

When you add the detergent into your container, you actually don't really need much of it. Only about 4 - 5 drops and then dilute with water until it forms soapy bubbles. (Pictured above.)</div>

Don't you just love candles? I know I do. I'm pretty much a collector/hoarder when it comes to candles. I have way too many and still buy more. (Bad habit, I know.) But in this post I introduce to you natural candles. Which are handmade and produced in Australia! For a reasonable price and great value. Not only that, but they smell great too! What a bonus.<br />
<br />
Two of my lovely friends (Abbie and Rachel) have started a candle business, since October 2013. They make soy wax and bees wax candles. There are a lot of different scents and ranges of candles they produce.<br />
Such as Cafe, Candy Shop, Clean Waters, Common Scents, Oriental, Pretty Posies, Summer Lovin' and Special Edition candles.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is what they say about their candles.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
"We endeavour to create hand made, quality candles that are beautifully scented from natural waxes free of toxins.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We choose to craft our candles from Bees Wax & Soy Wax as they are naturally occurring products and do not contain harmful petrochemicals like those found in paraffin wax. Our waxes are not chemically treated post production.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In addition to this, our waxes are produced from sustainable, renewable resources. Our bees wax is Australian produced & our soy wax is cultivated from American plantations. We do not use Genetically Modified materials."</div>

The two candles above, I bought are both from the Summer Lovin' Range. These two scents are fantastic! When lit, they smell amazing. They burn evenly and distribute the scent throughout the room. As you can see the wick is a lot thicker than your average candle. This doesn't bother me at all. I do still trim the wick before using it each time as you are taking care of the candle and make it last longer.<br />
<br />
Even when the candles are just sitting on my bedside table I can still smell the lovely Watermelon and Lemon & Lime Bitters flavours. It's almost as if I'm eating it.<br />
<br />
They have a website which you can purchase these amazing candles. They sometimes have sales as well so make sure that you check them out on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/candeliciouscreations" target="_blank"><b>Facebook</b> </a> and like their page for future scents and discounts!<br />
<br />
You can also find them on <a href="http://instagram.com/candeliciouscreations" target="_blank"><b>Instagram</b></a>.<br />
<br />
They offer a flat rate of $5 postage Australia wide if you don't live locally. (Not delivered Internationally.)<br />
<br />
So what are you waiting for?<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">This is my first ever review! How exciting. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">I adore Katy Perry perfumes. I own Purr and Meow. So I could not wait to try this one! Apparently this is limited edition, so I would get my hands on one as soon as you can.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">
Katy Perry's second Killer Queen perfume was released a couple months ago. I only recently had a chance to get my hands on it. I've been keeping an eye on it in stores and waiting for a good sale. I managed to get it for AU $49.99 from Priceline in the size 100ml. Which isn't a massive saving but every little bit helps. </span><br />

<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">The bottle is a lot like the first Killer Queen perfume. I prefer the colour of the second perfume compared to the first. Also the scent of the first Killer Queen didn't really appeal to me. Which is strange because a lot of people believe they are very similar in smell. I however disagree, they both have different scents.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">In terms of displaying the perfume, it takes up quite a lot of space which might bug a few people but I don't own many perfumes so it doesn't bother me. I think it's one of the most prettiest perfumes on my stand.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">A closer look at this stunning perfume. Isn't it just breath taking? This picture doesn't not do justice, it looks way better in person. I'm just in love with the bottle.</span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">Now lets describe the scent! It smells very sweet and floral </span><span style="background-color: white;">which I absolutely love!</span><span style="background-color: white;"> It might not suit everybody's taste by hey, that's what makes us unique. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">According to the fragrance</span><span style="background-color: white;"> notes this is what is in the perfume.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Top notes: </b>wild berries, black currant, plum<br /><b>Heart:</b> frangipani, celosia, jasmine, freesia<br /><b>Base: </b>cashmere, patchouli, caramel, praline</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">Although the staying power isn't very good. It was really strong as soon as you spray it but after a few hours it faded. But overall this is probably better than my other perfumes so it's still a tick in my books. I have yet to find a perfume that lasts all day! (Well at least for 6 or so hours.)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">Where can you purchase this you wonder? You can pick this up from </span><span style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.559999465942383px; text-align: center;">Priceline, Chemist Warehouse, Myer and selected pharmacies. The RRP is $59 for 100ml.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.559999465942383px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.559999465942383px; text-align: center;">Do you like sweet and fruity perfumes? What are your thoughts? What is your favourite perfume?</span></div>

This my first post. It's a new year, a fresh start. So why not start off with a wishlist! I always love reading other people's wishlists for the month. I want to try to get into blogging frequently but we'll see. I don't want to make promises that I can't keep.<br />
<br />
Here's my current wishlist for the month.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b><a href="http://twistedtime.com/olivia-burton-watch-wonderland-dusty-pink-gold-1479.html" target="_blank">1. Olivia Burton Watch, Wonderland in Mink & Rose Gold - AU $110</a></b><br />
I've been looking for a watch for ages that I like but I finally found it! I'm very particular about the colour and design. I just happened to stumble across this and fell in love!<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.pandora.net/en-au/explore/products/bracelets/590702HV" target="_blank">2. Pandora Silver Bracelet - AU $89</a></b><br />
I have been wanting one of these for a while now but I haven't had a chance to get it. But I should be getting one towards the end of the year. I'm so excited! Two of my best friends both have one and it just makes it easier giving gifts.<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.priceline.com.au/cosmetics/lips/lip-glossstain/colorburst-matte-balm-2.7-g" target="_blank">3. Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm - AU $17.95</a></b><br />
I saw these in the shops a few days ago and they are so nice! I'm not sure if I could pull off a matte look but there's no harm in trying! I probably won't be getting such a bright colour.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.priceline.com.au/fragrances/womens-fragrances/womens-fragrances/taylor-by-taylor-swift-made-of-starlight-musical-edition-edp-50.0-ml" target="_blank"><b>4. Taylor by Taylor Swift, Made of Starlight Musical Edition EDP 50mL - AU $55</b></a><br />
This perfume is very intriguing! The box, the bottle and scent all look/smell divine! I want a proper smell of this when I go to the shops again but since this is limited edition I don't want to miss out.<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.peteralexander.com.au/shop/en/peteralexander/women/women-disney-collection1/mickey-drop-crotch-legging" target="_blank">5. Peter Alexander, Disney Mickey Drop Crotch Legging - AU $59.95</a></b><br />
Omg isn't this just the cutest pair of pyjama pants you've seen? Peter Alexander just released their Disney collection not too long ago and people who know me, knows that I adore Disney things. I own quite a lot of the movies on Blu-Ray. I hope to own all of them one day.. I know I'm dreaming.<br />
<br />
So there's my five items that I wish for this month. What are yours?<br />
<br />
