Happy weekend fellow beautyholics!

Now I know that in many parts of the world, it’s autumn to almost winter but Down Under, we’re heading towards summer so don’t be surprised to see me talking about bright summery colours while you’re enjoying your warm knits and shades of burgundy. 😛

Me, I love insanely bright nails for summer and while I’m the boring sort who probably won’t wear fluoroscent nails, I do like me a bright candy pink. And that’s what Maybelline’s Color Show in Pink Shock is.

Go on, ‘fess up. How many of you love a bit of retail therapy?

*hand shoots right up*

I had my first taste of what retail therapy was when I was still in secondary/high school. It wasn’t actually me who was doing the shopping, it was my mum. She was particularly stressed out that day and when we went out for a spot of shopping, I noticed her buying more expensive items than she usually would. When the day was over and time to go through her shopping, she actually looked happier. That was when she told me this.

“Girl, what you witnessed just now was retail therapy.”

Ah yes, I learned ’em young. 😉

For someone who’s obsessed with blush, you’d think that I would be buying loads of blushes whenever I’m stressed out or am in need of quick retail therapy. Surprising fact: I actually take a long time deciding on getting a blush or not and whenever possible, they’re usually not spur-of-the-moment purchases.

For a lot of women, it’s lipsticks. For me though, it’s lip balms.
