Since Uni has started 2 weeks ago, I found that the amount of interesting things I have participated in or have had happen to me, has dramatically declined. When I was looking over what I did in the past month that I can talk about, I realised that I have done a bit of shopping so I thought I would talk about my favourite purchases from the last month or so.

Precision Sponge $4; Kmart

During the holidays, I stared at my make-up collection and found that I had way too much. So to combat this, I told myself that I would wear make-up more often. The purchase of this sponge has helped me do so. It allows for a really natural application of make-up and makes blending really easy. Also, a much cheaper option compared to the beauty blender that it is based on.

Vera Wang Lovestruck 100mL Eau De Parfum Spray $40; Cosmetics Fragrance Direct

I have wanted this particular scent for roughly a year now and when I saw it for the same price that Priceline was selling the 50mL one, I knew that I had to have it. I initially thought that I would prefer the Floral version over this one since I like floral, sweet scents but I found that the floral version was too overpowering for me in terms of it's floral notes.

Dove Deep Pure Face Cleanser for Combination Skin $6.99; Priceline

I purchased this cleanser on a whim since it was the cheapest cleanser and I was desperate for one but it definitely surprised me in how well it worked for me. I've been using it for a month and I can definitely see a difference in my skin with the number of breakouts and pimples reducing. It has also smoothed out my skin in the last month to the point where my sister is asking if I am wearing make-up on days that I am going make-up free (in other words: I'm too lazy to put effort into my appearance). So I would definitely recommend it to people with mild combination skin.

Ritchie Skinny Leg Jean in Dark Blue $39.95; Cotton On

This is one of my latest purchases. I love a good pair of jeans and my favourite Lee pair are slowly dying on me so I was on the outlook for a pair to replace them. I absolutely love the dark wash of this pair and the fit of them. I previously tried on a pair of jeans from Cotton On and did not like them at them. They felt scratchy and were either really tight on the thighs but fit my calf or the other way around so I was pleasantly surprised when I tried on this pair and found them to be really comfortable and a nice fit on me.

Hopefully, next week's post will show something a bit more exciting happening in my life. Hope to see you then :)
