I've been sitting on this post for a while now, simply because I wanted to give you all the most honest and detailed review that I could possibly give. 
As someone who has had bad experiences with hair extensions before, I must admit I was a little worried about reviewing the irresistible me hair extensions. But despite my hesitation, I am glad I accepted the offer presented to me by IrresistibleMe. Whilst I was graciously sent a set of hair extensions to review, I have not been paid or influenced to give any review other than my own personal opinions. 

I can't believe 2016 is already upon us! Its been months since I last posted on here and with the welcoming on 2016, I thought this was the perfect opportunity to jump back on the blogging band wagon. With 2015 just passing, I thought it only fitting to share with you all my 2015 favorites through the 2015 favorites tag.

Lets face it- whether you're lazy or not, we all struggle with motivation once and a while. And, if you're anything like me, finding motivation isn't actually that hard.. it's keeping it thats the real struggle. I thought I'd share some of my tried and tested tips and tricks to help get and keep you motivated. Bare in mind that these might not all work for you so you will need to do some trial and error to find what suits you best.

As a disclaimer before I get into this post, I was sent this Hair Rejuvenation Treatment from Hair&Me for reviewing purposes. I am not getting paid for reviewing this product and all opinions are that of my own. I hope you enjoy my review and that it helps at least one of you when making the all important decisions when caring for your hair.

I'm going to start this post by saying I really did TRY to like this product. Some things just aren't meant to be.

What I used: 

Let it be known that almost every beauty junkie and their best friend has either seen, heard, tested or reviewed this product. A while back this was all that came up on my feed and now I'm jumping on the late band wagon to share with you my thoughts on this product.

All aboard the hype train express- destination Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review. 

It's been a while since I did a tag post and I've had this one sitting in my inventory of post ideas for a while now so I thought it might be fun to do. Tonight I'll be knuckling down and taking photos for blog posts and scheduling them- but until then I hope you forgive me for my 'laziness' and enjoy this post.

I wish I was one of those brave people who could rock bright red or berry lipstick everyday but as it turns out, I'm not as bold and brave in my every day life as some others are. And whilst I do tend to lean towards a nude lip for everyday life, I do prefer a pop of colour of my lips, even if it isn't as bold and beautiful as a classic red lippy. My solution? Here's my go to lip combination for a 'bold nude' lip.

Recently I found a blog post by Nothin' Fancy Really entitled 50 Spring Post Ideas for Beauty Bloggers which, as the title says, gives beauty bloggers amazing post ideas for the Spring season. Unfortunately at this time of year Australia is absolutely freezing, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to come up with some Winter blog post ideas for beauty  and lifestyle bloggers.

Ever since australis came out with the Velourlips lip creams I have been all about that matte. I have done a review here on the Hon-O-Loo-Loo lip cream, however I don't think I gave this product enough credit. So, without further ado, here is my updated review on the australis Velourlips lip creams- with swatches of Hon-O-Loo-Loo, Ho-Chee-Min, Mi-A-Mee & Doo-Bai.

Following the stress of finding a house, packing and all the added extras when it comes to getting a new job, I've found myself reaching out to face masks to give my skin (and self) a little pick me up. One of the ones I've found myself reaching for is the Ayesha Fresh Face Mask from Lush.

I have had a secret (not so secret) love affair with pinterest for the longest time. And lets be honest, who doesn't? With thousands of amazing ideas, tutorials, inspirational photos and delicious recipes, it's hard NOT to find something to fall in love with.

With my current obsession and my love for all things pretty, I have decided to start a series- 'My Pinterest Obsession'- to show you all the pretty things that I've found wasting time on the web.

Life is hectic. I have been completely and utterly run off my feet and haven't had a lot of time to sit down and blog, so I thought I'd let you all know why.

Over the last month or two I have been applying for jobs left right and center. I was called for an interview two weeks ago and, following that, was greeted a week later for a 'meet and greet'. This proved very successful and I got the satisfying news on Monday that I have landed the job. Yay me! :D

I handed in my resignation letter to my current employer, with my final day to be February 13, 2015. While I am extremely proud and excited for my new position, I also feel a little sad as I will be waving goodbye to some great people that I've grown to know extremely well over the last two years.

My new job also means moving, not only house, but town. It's only around an hour away, but still a move is a move. We are currently house hunting, so I'll be sending my partner Chris to go inspect some so we have a house to shift into once my current job ends.  I'll have two weeks to move before my next job starts, so we'll be house hunting and (hopefully) moving over that time.

I've decided that 2015 is going to be my year. After my move I'll be blogging more, developing myself as a person and setting and achieving goals to the best of my abilities. I believe this year is my year to shine, to blossom as a person and as a valuable asset to my work, family, friends and the wider community.

I can't wait to bring you along on my journey, to share with you my life and to learn a little about yours as well.

Hopefully I will be posting more very soon!
Until then...

Fellow Lushies and Lushies-to-be, today I decided to do a review on one of Lushes most famous face masks- the Cupcake face mask. I know, I know- I promised this review a while ago, but I have finally got around to it!

I know I promised on Instagram that my next post would be my Lush cupcake face mask review, but I was tagged by the amazing Liv Cole from LivColey to do this tag so I thought I'd answer her questions before I upload my next review. I suggest taking the time to check out Livs blog, you can read her answers to this tag here.

I love a good bath and a nice bit of relaxation, however after a long day at work with things to be done I don't always get the time to really and truly pamper myself. However there are a few things I do and product I use to help myself wind down.
