There is something so beautiful about being surrounded by trees and flowers whilst having a delicious brunch if your ever near the Botanic Gardens at Mount Annan

They have a beautiful cafe called the gardens cafe 

The French toast was so delicious they had seasonal fruits and maple syrup 


The atmosphere is so beautiful hearing all the birds and the wind blowing

Face Bases & Blush | McoBeauty Revolution Makeup Flower Beauty

6 June 2023

I’ve been on the lookout for a few new face bases recently so here are my thoughts on a few that have been in my to try makeup box 

The Mco Beauty flawless glow

This is a beautiful dupe for the CT flawless filter the shade range is so gorgeous with there being 8 shades to choose from I was quite hesitant trying this out as I have oily combination skin but the formula of this product does not make me look oily it made my foundation apply more smoothly 

Makeup Revolution IRL Foundation 

One word for this foundation is Revlon colorstay the smell is the same but the consistency of the foundation isn't as heavy as the Revlon one its oil free and I like how it doesn't feel heavy on my skin it also covers up any blemishes that I've got 

Makeup Revolution Pore minimiser primer 
This is a good pore minimising primer its got a soft silicone feel to it and I like that its a soft nude shade 

Flower Beauty Blush bomb colour drops 

These are becoming a new favourite of mine the amount of colour you get from these blush drops is stunning and the application of these are so soft of the skin

Autumn Day | Camden Squeeze & Grind Cafe

30 May 2023



Camden has to be one of my favourite spots for Coffee in NSW its full of gorgeous autumnal leaves this time of year and the weather is that crisp mix of autumn meets winter 

We came across the Squeeze & Grind cafe its a gorgeous little hidden gem full of cosy decor and the food was so delicious 
If you are ever there I would recommend the club sandwich it was the perfect cold day treat to warm up 
and the coffee was so good too

I have been giving her weekly mists as we are now in Autumn 



Have you got a favourite houseplant

Skincare Must haves from 2022 | Tacha Mecca Cosmetica & More

6 January 2023

Last year I got into heaps more skincare serums and moisturise's as my skin has changed over the years I can see why a lot of the products are loved they have made my skin's texture so much better 

I can definitely see why the Tacha water cream is so well loved this has been absolutely perfect for helping my acne prone skin and helping my skin's texture 

The Mecca Cosmetica Hydrating moisturiser has been so hydrating for my skin in all types of weather its helped keep my oiliness at bay and its improved my skin texture

For when I do get a acne breakout the one product that has been so good for any pesky breakouts has been the Mecca Max Breakup serum its full of acne blemishing ingredients The water cooler hydrating serum has been honestly the best serum for my oily skin you don't think you need more hydration with oily skin but in fact you need it to help balance your oil production 

The ordinary serums that I have been using at the Retinol and the Niacinamide + Zinc
these were purchased because there wasn't any fourth ray beauty serums that I would normally use available online these work just the same so im happy that I did pick these up from Priceline
