I have been gone for so long... long enough for me to try a bunch of new products. About 90% of them are beauty & skincare products. So let's get on with it, shall we?
1. Banila Co. Clean It Zero cleansing balm

I've converted guys! I used to remove my makeup with cleansing wipes but they're not the most environmentally friendly items out there. Plus, it doesn't really get rid of the waterproof stuff I wear. I thought this was gonna leave an oily residue on my face but it doesn't! It's gentle and makes me feel super clean. Highly recommend! I got mine from Hermo!
2. Schwarzkopf Extra Hair Care Oil Essence

I bought this on a whim at Coles because it was half off! I've always been on a lookout for products that can tame my frizzy hair. This has been so good to me! It makes my hair smooth and soft. I'd say it definitely tames my frizz. I apply it from the middle part of my hair all the way down to the tips of it. I love this.
3. Elizabeth and James Nirvana Rose

If you know me, you'd know that the only perfumes I wear (& own) are from Elizabeth and James. I've never really been a perfume girl (mainly because the ones I like are on the expensive side of things). But I got this during the Sephora sale and it's so worth it. I love the scent of it. I always get compliments when I wear this. I also have the Nirvana White, which is something I've been wearing since 2016! Love all the scents this brand has!
4. Laneige Water Sleeping Mask

So apparently, I have oily to combination skin. I've always thought I had just straight up oily skin but a technician at this facial place I went to told me I have dry patches on my face. And because it's winter here in Australia, it makes my skin even drier. Also, I got this particular mask because Kim Thai mentioned it in one of her videos! It's so worth the hype. I wake up with soft skin every time I put this on. I wear it at least twice a week! A bit pricey but worth it!
5. The Ordinary Coverage Foundation in shade 2.1Y

I've wanted to try this for ages before I got it. Everyone on YouTube talks about it. If you don't already know, The Ordinary is a Canadian skincare brand known for its effective AND affordable products. This foundation in particular is probably one of the best ones I've own. It has a medium but buildable coverage. Feels super light on the skin! AND I feel like it matches me so much better than my L'Oreal Infallible Foundation. If you can get your hands on The Ordinary, I'd highly recommend getting this.
