Hello Darling, Well Hello Darling, You’re Looking Swell in Bellini!

I’ve heard of Darling nail polishes on the interwebz for quite some time now. Their pastels have always intrigued me but somehow I never did buy any to try. Hmm … I wonder why.

Anyway, at the Beauty Bloggers Utopia weekend, I finally got the opportunity to try one out. Heather, founder of the Hello Darling, brought out a big box of different coloured nail polishes and told us to pick one each. I had my eye on this lovely coral pastel and grabbed at it hard as though I discovered the last pair of shoes in my size in a sample sale. Ahem. 😛

Behold, the Bellini. It’s a very pretty and creamy shade of coral.

Five Minutes with My Favourite Blogger: Cheryl @ BusinessChic

Five Minutes with My Favourite Blogger is a series of posts where I’ll be showcasing some of my favourite bloggers. These are the bloggers whom I admire and inspire me.

Enjoy!

Five Minutes with My Favourite Blogger: Cheryl @ BusinessChic

My style icon: My Oma Lucy. She isn’t afraid of glamming up her look with colour and shiny sparkly things whenever she feels like it, even if it’s to stay at home and watch her favourite Jean-Claude Van Damme film! She turns 88 this year and I forever pester her for details of what she’s wearing and where it’s from etc; she inspires me.

Dream holiday destination: Too many to count although I’ve always wanted to visit Japan to experience and photograph it’s cultural heritage, scenery, food and of course, street style fashion.

One random thing you can find in my bag: The thing that raises eyebrows most are the cardboard cut out people I craft into business cards to give to people I photograph forBusinessChic.com.au !

My favourite item of makeup: Liquid eyeliner, hands down. Innika Mineral powder foundation, Lancôme Hypnose mascara, Laura Mercier eye kohl and Stila Peony Convertible Colour in Peony round out my daily repertoire. Although I’ve recently started playing around with BB creams as it’s handy not having to use concealer!

You will never see me without: A bag. I’m forever lugging things around with me so that I’ve things to occupy me if I get stuck somewhere. That said when stuck, I like to sit and observe what’s happening around me!

I’m absolutely addicted to: Exploring and discovering. I like wandering around with my camera and capturing things, particularly to instagram!

One thing on my bucket list: To travel and capture what people around the world wear to work to share on my blog is a big dream of mine, one day!

Aldi Steps It Up With Lacura Beauty’s Mosaic Blush in Pink

Ever since Aldi came up with that pretty Minerals Blush I raved about, I’ve been keeping a close eye on anything new that comes up in their makeup range, especially the blushes. You know how I love my blushes. 😉

Lacura Beauty Mosaic Blush in Pink

A couple of weeks ago during a grocery run to Aldi, I stumbled upon another blush. This time, it’s pressed powder and one look at the blush meant an immediate addition to the shopping basket.

Seriously, how pretty is the design? 🙂
