Kiss Nail Dress

Kiss Nail Dress - $13.99
I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like every corner I turn in Priceline I'm bombarded by new displays of stick on nail designs. I've never been great at doing my own nail designs, so a couple months ago these particular Kiss zebra print sitck on strips caught my eye. They're zebra print, glittery, tacky looking... and right up my alley haha! I wore them in a vlog a couple months back and promised a review, sorry it took a while!

The pack is $13.99 for 28 strips in varied sizes. I have quite a large nail bed so for some nails I wasn't able to find a perfect match, but they were good enough and would most likely suit most people.

Application was simple, stick the strip on the nail and buff off the excess with the provided file (it did take a while though). They lasted about a week on my nails before I noticed them begin to wear off at the tip, but it depends on much you use hands really.

Removing them was easy but I did find that the sticky part remainded a bit on my nail. Next time I'm thinking of painting a base coat on my nails first to act as a barrier.

Overall I was pleased with the result and would buy them again. Have you tried stick on nail designs?

Review: Australis Paparazzi Perfect Blush

Australis Paparazzi Perfect HD Blush
"Shoot To Thrill"

Colour/Pigmentation: 'Shoot To Thrill' is a gorgeous blend of bright pink, light pink and coral pink. I like to swirl my brush on all 3 shades and it creates a gorgeous bright pink blush on the cheeks. According to Australis, the "pigment is high in Mica content providing intense colour payoff." I would definitely agree with this statement, a light hand is needed to apply this product or you will get weird looks haha. The blush also has some light flecks of glitter but I haven't found that they transfer to my cheeks.

Longivity: I was pleasantly surprised with the lasting power of this blush! I work 9.00-5.30 and although it does start to lose its intensity after around lunch time, I find that at the end of the day my cheeks still have a pretty pink glow.

Packaging: Love! A sleek, round packaging with a large mirror (forgot to take a picture of that, d'oh!). As you can see in the pictures, on the back is a cute matching marble pattern to the blush itself.

Price: Only $12.95 AUD! Definitely reasonably priced for a 'drugstore' blush (Well in Australia that is... haha). I also managed to pick mine up when Priceline had 20% off Australis.

Selection: This blush comes in 4 shades, check out the Australis site for pictures/descriptions of each.

Paprazzi Perfect: I'll let you girls be the judge of that! I think it photographs quite nicely, but I'm yet to try it on a 'night out' and see how it appears with flash. Australis says it is "formulated with light reflecting and balancing photochromatic pigments that assist to create instant camera ready photos."

Overall Thoughts: This blush is definitely a winner for me! Affordable, beautiful colour, long lasting, doesn't break me out, cute packaging, pigmented so you don't waste product trying to build up colour pay off... I actually have no complaints!
