Quite Obsessed with Marc Jacobs’ Beauty Shameless Bold Blush in, Well, Obsessed!

Marc Jacobs Shameless Bold Blush in 204 Obsessed

When I was in Europe last year, the one brand I was highly looking forward to checking out at Sephora was Marc Jacobs. Shop after shop, country after country … none of them stocked Marc Jacobs Beauty. Not long after I was back in Melbourne did they start selling them.

*facepalm*

Look, I know they’re most probably overhyped. And most likely overpriced too. But when a girl’s on a mission to look for something, she’s got to be able to find it. You know what I mean, right? Right? 😛

Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder: Where Are The 2 Hs?

Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder

Gosh, I haven’t used loose powder in ages! Loose powder used to be a staple in my makeup routine but after discovering gems like Guerlain’s Meteorites and the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder, I find myself using those to set my makeup instead of loose powder as they don’t only set my foundation in place, they also give an illuminating boost to the skin.

I first noticed the Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfection Powders on the Sephora website about a couple of years ago. Having used loose powder that comes in plastic sifters for years, it’s very interesting that the Smashbox loose powders come with metal sifters instead. Fast forward almost 2 years on, and here we have a box of the Smashbox loose powder on my desk, just waiting to be checked out. So I did.

I Instagrammed My Fridge! (Plus A Giveaway)

THE GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING!

Gerberas

Ladies and gentlemen (because I know there are you blokes out there reading this blog. Hello!), may I present to you, on this fine Friday morning, the heart of my kitchen.

The fridge.

Seriously, Tine? The fridge? Yes, my chickens. The fridge.

Now it’s an old one. So old that Tim doesn’t even remember when he got this. It’s small, has broken shelves and the doors are so old that they’re yellow with age. So what is one to do when one isn’t inclined to get us a new fridge (I’m looking at you, husband) but to make it look more appealing with magnets? Lots and lots of fridge magnets?

See, I never thought I’d be the sort of person who’d put lots of magnets on her fridge. My mum’s fridge has heaps of magnets but they’re never random magnets. Every time she travels to a different country, she’ll buy a few souvenir fridge magnets. The fridge is her testimony of travels. Me, I like to put up pictures I’ve taken with my phone.

Say hello to my fridge of Instagram.
