So today I'm going to be talking about my favourite drugstore brand, Australis!
You can get Australis from Priceline or Kmart! You can probably get them from other places but thats it in the ACT!
This brand is super cheap for such a great range and quality of this make up.
If you guys follow me on Instagram you would know that i am absolutely obsessssssssed with their Colour Inject Lipstick range! They have recently changed their packaging and i was like noooo its too bulky! BUT it does have a clear section at the bottom of the lipstick, that shows the true colour of the lipstick! With the old packaging some of the stickers at the bottom would not be the same colour as the actual lipstick inside, which is annoying if the store doesn't have testers and cant do swatches and stuff like that!
Right: new packaging
But! The lipsticks are so creamy and shiny on the lips, suuper opaque and glide straight on.
Now, Australis Stay Put Foundation..
I have been wearing this foundation for thr past few days testing out the wear, durability, etc. this foundation says it lasts up to 16 hours.
I had a test for this foundation, at work on thursdays its late night. 9am til 7:30pm. Thats 10 and a half hours. At work I clean and do some work on clients so I'm on my feet most of the time and if i feel like cleaning hard, I'll start sweating a bit. So I thought I'd test the foundation out yesterday.
I loved the packaging, it was so cute and love that it has a nozel? Is that what you call it? Haha i dont know.
The stay put label also intrigued me. I thought because it says 'stay put' it may be a matte foundation or a mousse foundation but it was actually a very slippery wet cream foundation which im not a fan of but it looked great once on my skin. It gave me such a flawless look as you can see in the below photo. I have absolutely no make up on the left side of my face the right side is all australis make up. The colour was alright, may have been a tad dark but once it settled into my skin, it changed to match my colour.
This foundation was put on around about 8:30 in the morning, and i got home at around 7:30pm. During the day i would look at my foundation to check for. I could touch my face and the foundation would not budge, hence the stay put!
The colour, however, did fade throughout the day. By around 5pm, the foundation was a yellowy type colour and looked oily in places like my forehead and the sides of my nose. You could see some of my freckles and the redness of my cheeks.
If you were going out to dinner for a few hours this would be great. If your going out for 5+ hours, i wouldn't recommend this foundation if you want it to stay the same colour!
Also, I did not prime before i put this product on, that may make it last longer but I wanted to see how the actual foundation would do :)
Australis pressed powder!
I think everyones heard someone complain about the colours of the pressed powder, i have the darkest brown powder, and as you can see in the photo below of the powder, it is definately not the darkest brown and sometimes this powder is too light for me. Otherwise, this powder gives great coverage and makes your foundation stay on longer
Next up, Australis Highlights
I've used this product three times now and ill definately be using it from now on. I hadn't used a highlighter until this one but it makes such a difference to your make up! Last all day to with the right foundation!
Last but not least, the AustralisTint my Brow.
I had nooo idea what this product was or how it even worked, so when i opened it and saw a mascara brush i was like whaaaat. I got the colour 'blonde because i thought the other colour looked to dark but this colour is a little too light for my eyebrows so it looked a little wierd.
This brow tint literally makes your eyebrow feel like cement! Your eyebrow hairs will not be budging after you out this on haha!
It's not a bad idea, but I will be sticky with my e.l.f brow kit :)
Cool, well I hope you guys enjoyed and I will try and blog more often!
Until then
