Delicious Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons



I popped into my local Big W for some photo hangers and came out with a bundle of sweets, undies and lip crayons. I should never be allowed out or my wallet would continue to cry. I've never been a Face of Australia fan just on the shallow basis of boring packaging. However the Sheer Gloss lip crayons they had on their counter caught my eye.

Love from Hong Kong (swap)



 

It was another bleak Autumn day but a box on my door step from Hong Kong brought a smile to my face. 
I contacted Jacq after following her beauty blog and was jealous of the amazing products she reviewed and had access to in Hong Kong.

The Revlon Conspiracy: Where is Revlon NOT on sale?

[L-R] lip butters: peach parfait & strawberry shortcake
 nails : sheer blossom, lilac pastelle & cloud
 

Good day Dearies,

I picked up some revlon products from the "Buy One, Get One Free" (BOGOF) promotion for Revlon lips and nails range currently at priceline till the 23rd April. Except for cloud, I got that at Gloss for $4.95. Finally, this promotion makes the revlon lip butters much more affordable and lessens the rage I have for overpriced cosmetics down under. If you purchase $60 on selected brands at priceline you get a massive beauty bag of goodies for free. My wallet thanked me however for deciding to stop at 2 lip butters and nail polishes.

I strolled around for a while and noticed some sort of Revlon conspiracy. Everywhere I looked Revlon was on sale or it could be sale season. Here's the deals :
  • Target $5 off lip and nails range ( Ends 18/4)
  • Myer $8.95 nail polishes & BOGOF skincare (Ends 29/4)
  • David Jones ~25-30% off selected ranges (Saw this at my DJs, not sure when it ends)
  • K Mart $8 off colour stay range (Ends 18/4)

Battle of the sheer lippie. Fight!


 
L'oreal Nutrishine|Dior addict|Revlon Lip butter

Sheer lipsticks are a great way to look polished even when you are having one of those bummer days. 
An easy look for summer and spring. Doesn't require constant check up and easy to apply without a mirror. These lipsticks are the love child of lipsticks, lip glosses and lip balms.
 Don't ask me how that works. 

Who would be the champion in this lipstick jungle?!

Contender one : L'oreal Nutrishine in FR102 Shiny Grapefruit
shimmery pink with coral undertones
3.5g, RRP $22AUD, contains Royal Jelly and Shea Butter

Contender two: Dior Addict in 465 Singuliere
pale pink
3.5g, RRP $49AUD
less wax than a normal lipstick and a reflecting gel

Contender three: Revlon lip butter in 050 Berry Smoothie
medium pink/plum
2.55g, RRP $22AUD
contains Shea, Mango and Coconut butter

3,2,1 ......Fight!
