The Dean Nixon concealer brush is made of extremely fine and soft bristles and tapered edges to prevent your concealer from caking and highlighting any fine lines. Its very gentle on the skin and I haven't experienced any shedding yet, its also worked well with primer application and creme shadows so this brush can really come in handy! The mini Dean Nixon handbook will also tell you exactly how to use each brush and where you can get the whole collection.

This is a swatch of the Maybelline High Shine Lip Gloss in Gleaming Grenadine on its own but I find that it works great as a top gloss for red lippies, particularly if you have dry lips like me! The sponge applicator is easy to use and its quite pigmented for a shine gloss. Surprisingly this is my first time using Maybelline lip products and I'm fairly impressed.

Recently my hair had undergone a balayage which means that I've had to use purple shampoo in order to prevent my hair from turning copper. The downside to this is that it really dries out my hair which can make it very unmanageable. These Redken oil treatment products are tailored specifically for dull/damaged hair and I think the main thing I've noticed from trialing these products is the hair shine. I still prefer the fragrance of my Evo products but Redken certainly adds more body and shine to your hair.

If you haven't seen Moxie at your local supermarket or pharmacy then I'd be very surprised! You really can't go past their cute packaging which is a great way for girls to discreetly carry Moxie products in their handbag like any other cute accessory.

And last but definitely not the least is this incredible Circa Everyday Soap! When I first opened the parcel I was pleasantly greeted with a wonderful smell of orchids and realised shortly after that the amazing smell was from Circa's silky soft soap bar. Unfortunately I have extremely dry skin so although I do like using certain soap scents I would always have to lather myself in moisturizing body wash in between because soaps make my skin quite dry. Though, after reading that the Circa Home soap contained Sweet Almond Oil and Cocoa Butter I really couldn't resist and surprisingly my skin wasn't dry or irritated and I smelt great! I'm extremely impressed with Circa Home and I definitely want a Lilac & Orchid diffuser for my room now so I can constantly keep the scent with me!

Receiving parcels is always exciting and Her Fashion Box didn't dissapoint, I'm looking forward to whats to come! If you are too then you can also subscribe here.

Where to Get the Best Balayage for $140

The last time I blogged it was sunny, I was on my way to Vanuatu and New Caledonia and I couldn't wait to get in the sun!

Now suddenly I'm draping myself in capes to shield from Australia's bipolar version of Autumn. Which I actually don't mind because I have a deep attraction to capes but the weather changes have caused me to be sick for almost an entire month and fall under the blogging radar. But I'm back now, with posts lined up for 2013 and first on the list is undoubtedly my amazing experience at the Christopher Hanna Platinum Salon in Paddington.

I would firstly like to thank the team at Christopher Hanna for inviting me to a fun night of champagne, food and pampering. I was placed in the very capable hands of their staff that helped me achieve the big lioness mane I wanted for the night!

I also got the chance to talk about the biggest problem I have with my hair which is having to always curl it because it is so limp when its naturally straight. They introduced me to the Evo Builder's Paradise Working Spray which I was given as a gift to take home along with many other Evo products...and it saved my hair! I haven't needed to endure the consequences of teasing my hair for volume and I don't need to worry about limp hair if I decide to get a keratin treatment later too.

The CH team too such great care when handling my hair that I've definitely found my hairdresser of choice and I can't wait to re-do my outgrown balayage with their balayage experts :)

If you're thinking about getting a balayage, they are currently running an introductory special of $140 for all new clients and I encourage you to take my advice and grab the bull by its horns! For more details about this deal click here.

A few weeks ago, Kimberly and I had a spontaneous day at the park with her camera. The last time we did something like this would have been nearly two years ago, can you believe it! I admit that it's been so long since I've been photographed outdoors and around actual human beings that it was hard for me to shake out of my awkwardness. I'm lucky Kimb has a good eye so we managed to get some pictures I could still use for today's blog post haha

And for those that follow my Facebook fanpage, last month I finally committed to buying myself the Crystal Accented Chronograph watch. All through the beginning of the year I've been at war with myself on whether or not to get the gold or rose gold, so I had a poll put up on my fan page and the majority of you convinced me to get the rose gold. Couldn't be happier with my decision, thank you for those that helped me decide :)
