Introduction

So it's a new year, it's summer here in Australia and I thought it would be fun to check in beauty wise and showcase a few things I am loving at the moment.

I really don't get to do as many makeup lives on facebook any more because having a 1 year old does really restrict your free time but I did do a live video of this and will post it below so you can watch it instead of read it haha!

So favourite beauty products at the moment. I am always using skincare, makeup and nail products, even ingestible beauty such as collagen etc I always take. And for the most part, I use the same things over and over but then I go through a phase and this is usually with seasons, where I try new things or change them up a bit. Slightly lighter moisturisers in summer for example or a different colour palette because its winter. So these products below are what I am loving at the moment.

Alpha-H High Tide Water Cream

If you have followed me on social media or know me it's highly likely you've heard me talk about Alpha-H. It's an Australian company and their products are really beautiful. I started with the cult favourite Liquid Gold and the Balancing Cleanser and I was hooked. But this new Water Cream is perfect for summer or for those who don't like a heavy moisturiser. Not really scented which is good and just soaks in to my skin beautifully.

MCoBeauty Miracle Flawless Skin Foundation & MCoBeauty Lip Plump 4-in-1 Lip Lacquer

Ok so MCoBeauty can really do no wrong at the moment. Fabulous products, wonderful dupe products all for fantastic and affordable prices and I have a lot of their products. These two products are again really good. The Miracle Flawless Skin Foundation is beautiful. Good coverage, the Nude Beige fits my skin tone perfectly and there are lots of colours to choose from so you are sure to find your colour. It's moisturising and smooth's imperfections. It is a very good dupe of the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation which is also amazing but when you are saving around $40 with the MCoBeauty version, it makes it a bit sweeter.

The MCoBeauty Lip Plump 4-in-1 Lip Lacquer is another gorgeous lip product. Plumps, moisturisers, gives colour and shine. The formula melts on and so is buildable and glides on. The colour I have is Lucy - Candy Pink.

Naked Sundays SPF Hydrating Glow Mist top up spray SPF 50+

Fabulous product for topping up your SPF coverage when out and about, over makeup or on body. Smells delicious, and doesn't leave a colour residue anywhere. Naked Sunday's make amazing SPF products that don't make you feel like you're wearing zinc or are going to smell like sunscreen.

Sistaco Nail System

So I have been using this for a while now, I wanted to get the hang of it and see if it lasted before I said anything but I really do love it. I pretty much always have my nails done but when I was pregnant they got terribly brittle and thin which they had never been so I tried this once I had had Oscar and it really keeps them strong. The system itself is easy to use and the powders are really pretty. Most are sparkly as they are minerals and I love that but I do love that they now have some flat colours. I am currently wearing the new Neon Hot Pink. It is reasonably easy to take off and for me lasts for around 2 weeks.
