SUMMER ESSENTIAL

This summer has been all about sun, surf, and unfortunately for us Sydney-siders, lots of rain! My one go-to surf product (besides SPF 30+, of course!) has been YSL’s Mascara Singulier Waterproof. Love the shape of the brush (it creates long, feathery looking lashes), the jet black shade, and best of all, it’s actually waterproof! So often I’ve gone into the ocean with ‘waterproof’ mascara, rubbed my eyes and then seen black smudges on my hand – not very Venus of me! This heavy duty formula just blows my mind, although to be honest it is a bit tricky to get off (you need a lot of time in front of the mirror with an oil-based remover) but I think it’s totally worth it.

Do you have a number one waterproof mascara? Care to share?? x

Also, whilst you’re surfing the web (who says that?), have a look at Jess’ new project, Reedy Hollow Vintage. She sells beautiful original and reworked vintage clothing and accessories. If you’re in Sydney, she’ll be at Kirribilli Fashion Markets this Sunday, September 12, from 9am. Come down and say hi!

NYC Day 4 – Spring 2010 RTW

anni hall — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 05:23:53 +0000

A few of my favourites showed today; Derek Lam, Alexander Wang, Erin Fetherston and Band of Outisders, although I wasn’t too really blown away by the makeup looks. The clothes on the other hand…. Beautiful!

This look here at Rebecca Taylor isn’t anything new, but i really wanted to tell you about my current favourite lipcolour, which of course happens to be orange. For the past few seasons everyone has been using MAC lipstick in Morange, but the MAC Cream Colour Base in Orange Alarm is actually where it’s at. It just has this awesome staying power and because of the intensity makes your teeth look really white. Bonus! ps. How cute are those sunnies?

The next look here is at DKNY. Go on.. try some new mascara colours! YSL just brought out a mascara in “Sublime Grey”. Grey! People! Grey Mascara! (Refer to previous post about my favourite colours and the excitement will make sense..)

And very excitedly, IT-boy Alexander Wang’s collection. It was very athletic (hence the old timey Gridiron helmet – i think?), very tonal and very chic. The hair.. I looovvvee the hair, so easy to work into real life. The makeup however, didnt really do it for me. It just synced in nicely with the collection (which is totally fine and makes the show all about the clothes) as opposed to lifting the collection. My favourite thing on the face though, was the attention to detail on the brows. Very cute!

Til tomorrow! xx
