not happy customer

i bought a few items from this online store www.fashionmecca.com.au

first off they don't send a invoice to your email stating what you have purchased nor do they let you know when your items are shipped i was not keen on that idea

delivery time was not bad it showed up in the week but..... the NYX hot pink eyeshadow is not hot pink way to light to be hot pink and is a total different number on the back which brings me to think they are not selling genuine NYX products there was also the trouble of i ordered 2 eyeshadow palettes 1 showed up but they left out the other one but charged me for it

i emailed them telling them whats happened i waited a few days they never got back to me we called them they didn't seem to interested in getting this little problem sorted out took a few phone calls finally they decide they will refund the amount for the palette that never showed .... which they sent me a email stating they refunded the amount but as of yet the amount has not shown up

over all very disappointed in this online store and will never be purchasing again i would not recommend this store from my own personal experience

Lime Crime Beauty

so I'm a bit late to jump on the bandwagon for this brand but better late then never. i ordered a few in from  Makeupnet lets start with the service no complaints here fast delivery and they even wrapped the products up in colourful paper with ribbon they did there best even knowing some one over there sucks as much as i do at wrapping and placed in a nice little paper bag 

Ok lets start with Lime Crime Dust Abracadabra  
this is a bright beautiful pink with a hint of 
sparkle colour pay off is huge good quality will last all day just the perfect pink  


Lime Crime Dust Siren
if you are some one who loves colour and i mean loves colour you walk out the door with bright red eye shadow on then you will love this its very hard to find a red with massive colour pay off this red this is the answer to your problem also has a bit of a metallic finish to it  



Lime Crime Nymph Dust 

this dust would make the prefect highlight for the brow bone  an inner corners of the eyes
it looks alot like fairy dust 




 and for the best thing ever no amount of sweat creased this bad boy 

Lime Crime Candy Eyed Eyeshadow Helper 

I've tryed a few eye primers before thought i found some good ones but this one is it i went for a run after i was finished sweating like it was no ones business my eye shadow was still perfect not to mention all these products come in cute little boxes 

out of all 4 products i would repurchase all except nymph nice colour but not exactly the colour i would use on a regular basis

review and happenings

been a while since i posted been super busy with life in general i joined vision personal trainers to lose some stubborn weight and to kick my chocolate addiction in the butt lost 3 kg so far an i been sore tired grumpy and sore but feeling good so far great service from them so far and lovely people i think i got the coolest trainer  VisionPT

work related we have renovations starting tomorrow i get to play with paint and mess up the windows lol and the website is being done and getting a banner for the website out the from gonna be busy for a while might not have Sundays off for a few weeks anyway sigh oh well

now for the product reviews


Dermalogica Clearing Mattifier 
i was given a sample of this to try the lady there told me it could help get rid of black heads and clear up acne i was  more interested in the blackhead part to be honest i will not be purchasing this product it may work for you but it did nothing for me not even clear up a small pimple

next on the list is ....

i wish i could like this product it smells nice it feels nice it makes your skin feel clean sad to say after a few days of using this beautiful cleanser my skin got so irritated from it i would recommend looking into this brand on a plus side its organic so your doing your skin a favor just it did not work for my skin 

these 2 beauty's i love the mask it does not dry and when you squeeze some out on your hand you have second thoughts about putting that dark green stuff on your face but after you skin feels refreshed and soft it doesn't smell to bad it doesn't have that strong smell like some masks do 
the hydrating mist smells like lemon/lime very refreshing it doesn't leave your skin oily an absorbs fast  i recommend both these items

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the tahini, honey and cinnamon. Mix in walnuts and oats until well blended. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 2 inches apart.
