Hello everyone,
I hope all is well in your world today.
Another review for you all. Again not sponsored. I purchase all products myself. My philosophy is a review which is unbiased, no nonsense and real. It's an opinion of course. It would be impossible to be suitable to every single product available. But I do my best to explain why I have chosen one way or the other in relation to the product claims.
So, here we go!
I hadn't used a L'Oreal mascara in a while and admittedly had bought this when it first became available.
L'Oreal says: "the first curled volume effect mascara from L’OrĂ©al Paris. The volumising mega curl roller brush curls and thickens each lash from the root. The quick Mega Volume formula holds up the curl for an all day lasting effect!"
As per my usual routine I used it, wasn't super impressed (as is always the case for me with a new mascara). I think I expect some kind of miracle immediately where I apply the mascara and automatically transform into a super model!
However, I revisited this again I am absolutely amazed at the volume this mascara provides! It lifts your lashes right from the base. Opens up the eye and makes the most of the length you have!
Now I have before and afters to show you but be gentle. I'm not a super model first thing in the morning (or ever!). My photos are not 'touched up' or filtered in any way. I want you to see exactly how the mascara looks on a real person. Not a pretend person.

Forgive the bags and the bad hair. But being a 'normal' person who has to go to work every day, I think it's important to show how amazing this stuff really is!
RRP around $21.95 AUD. But of course L'Oreal very kindly has sales constantly so keep an eye on L'Oreal retailers for a bargain!
Thanx for reading. Would love your feedback.
Until next time.
Kind Regards,
Margaret
Hello everyone,
I hope the new year has started well for you all. May 2018 bring you much love, joy,
health and happiness.
Now, after hearing a little buzz and a heads up by a friend who came across this, I have had a chance to use the Face Halo make up removing sponge. According to the site "Face Halo’s HaloTech fibers get into your pores and will remove all your makeup better than anything else". A tall order as most of the time I struggle with mascara removal even with a good cream cleanser.
So was a little skeptical.
After the first use I was quite impressed on how much of my make up it removed. Even the mascara! Tried all different kinds of mascaras except waterproof and it removed everything. I tried waterproof eyeliner as well and yes it removed that also. Although it did require a little more work. But still not fully convinced I used a toner afterwards and there was nothing on my cotton pad. So the next day after using the sponge I used micellar water cleanser and still nothing!!!
Just to shake things up I used micellar water last night, and then used the halo face sponge there was still make up left behind! So I can sincerely it definitely removes all my make up. For those who are curious I use a mineral make up powder foundation, liquid concealer and powder bronzer and blusher.
Sooo my verdict I really like it! It gently exfoliates my face so my skin looks great and uptakes my moisturiser quickly. I have to use much less to get the same result. BONUS!
You can purchase them from www.facehalo.com and they price is very reasonable. A pack of 3 for $22 USD. They are machine washable (although the site recommends no fabric softener). I wash mine in the shower as soon as I've used it and then throw it into the machine at the end of the week (as per the site's instructions).
Honestly for the price point I'm quite happy. They are small, ideal for travel and easy to keep clean. I wish this was around a long time ago! Please jump onto their website to read about the product and view their videos. Hint: the orange test is what convinced me!
Again just so you're aware I bought these myself. This is not a sponsored review in any way.
Well until next time stay safe.

Hi everyone,
I wanted to quickly tell you all this. I recently came down with a horrible chest infection. To say I was congested is an understatement.
Now we all know that when we have a cold or flu and constantly blowing our noses, our skin becomes dehydrated and the skin around our nose becomes red raw and starts to peel.
That never happened to me! By using my Paula's Choice skincare regime and using a face mask once I didn't get any of that awful dryness once I recovered.
My regime being the following:
Calm Redness Relief Moisturizer for Normal to Dry Skin - morning and night
Resist C15 Super Booster - morning
RESIST Moisture Renewal Oil Booster - morning and night
RADIANCE Renewal Mask - night (once only)
Please understand I am in no way paid to review these products. I buy these based on others recommendations and I cannot tell you how happy I am.
I am so impressed with how well they worked whislt I was sick, people actually questioned whether I actually was! Until I opened my mouth and started to speak. Then they knew.....no not pretty.
But have made a full recovery and ready to get on with it!
Until next time please stay well and healthy!

Hi everyone,
Yes it's been a while hasn't it? Spring has sprung here in Australia which brings crazy weather and hay fever! Achoo, yes bless all of us.
This is going to be a quick one. I've recently started re-using L'Oreal's Telescopic Mascara again. Ladies, (and gentlemen) I can tell it's one brilliant mascara. I'm not even sure why I stopped using it! Lengthens (and then some), Volumises and fans your lashes out.
So in a nutshell, it's value for money, separates beautifully, lengthens everything you have and doesn't clump or dry out. I really like it and will definitely repurchase.
Well that's all folks.
Until next time,
Margaret Panna
