I am a complete sucker for any new makeup line that comes to NZ and I will do my best to give it a try. Power house brand, Mecca Maxima (in Australia and New Zealand, basically our equivalent of Sephora) has just brought out an incredible new product range exclusive to them called MECCA MAX. I could not resist this one at all; it was hyped and marketed so well and as soon as it launched online I hopped on and ordered a few things to try out.

I love a good beauty innovation, so when I was approached by The Brush Bar to try out their hero products I jumped on board. These products are pretty darn amazing and make the tedious but very important job of brush cleaning much easier!

I think NZ might finally be coming out of Winter and into a bit of warmer weather, so to celebrate that let me introduce you to the Elizabeth Arden Tropical Escape Collection. It's sure to get you in the summer mood, and perfect if you are going on a little trip to escape the cold soon!

It has been YONKS since I did a 'Cheap eBay Finds' post. They used to be a regular occurrence on here a couple of years back but lately, I just haven't been buying that much via eBay, until I decided to go on the hunt for a makeup mixing palette. Of course, eBay totally delivered and I found one that is great quality and it was stupidly cheap too!

I love it when my favourite affordable brands come out with new products, and recently L'Oreal have added a few new things to their lineup. The new Eye Paints* are a different product for L'Oreal that promises bold colour and the ability to blend them seamlessly, but have they lived up to this? 

I am sure you are well aware now of how much I love affordable makeup. If you didn't know that, well hi, my name is Cass and I love cheap makeup! Better yet, I love finding cheap makeup that is actually amazing! Let me introduce to you some new products from Designer Brands that you might wanna check out.

As an absolute beauty lover, M.A.C limited edition collections are some of my favourite things to purchase. I see them as collector's items and just obsess over the collabs and various packaging they do with each new collection. They have recently launched two collections, the Fruity Juicy range (no longer available, sadly) and the Steve J + Yoni P collaboration. I quickly jumped onto the M.A.C US site and made a pretty decent order using YouShop to get it to me in NZ (a lot cheaper doing it this way!)
