Top 3 Mondays; Lipsticks

So while browsing through Zoellas blog recently and noticed that she has been doing little weekly blog posts about her "top 5" products and thought it was a really fun and interesting thing to do, just little blog posts between larger ones. So of course I have decided to incorporate this into my blog but instead of doing 5 products I will be doing my top 3! every week, so stay tuned!
If you haven't already seen her blog I definitely recommend that you go do so!

So to kick start this week's Top 3, we have Lipsticks!
If you haven't already noticed I have a slight addiction to lip products, especially lipsticks so narrowing it down to 3 was quite difficult but I decided to go with my top 3 most used lipsticks that I find myself always grabbing for.

(Left to Right; Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in '103', LimeCrime Lipstick in 'Poisonberry', Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in '107')

 Okay, So first up we have my everyday favourite "nude" colour, this is my second tube of this lipstick as I use it so much. 103 is a pretty soft pink that's a sort of my lips but better colour, and when I'm not going for a bold lip this is what I will always wear. I really love the consistency of the Kate Moss lipsticks for Rimmel, especially the ones in the red tubes (Satin Matte's?) they last really well on the lips and just feel so smooth and not drying at all. (Can we mention that all Rimmel Lipsticks smell like lollies?!)
Definitely a good colour for a wide variety of skintones, I'd say anywhere from very fair skin to a medium skintone (I'm between an NC25 - NC30) any darker and the colour might seem a bit ashy.

Next up we have one of my all time favourites lipsticks, I am in absolute love with Limecrime's 'Poisonberry'! Its a beautiful metallic purple which fades on my lips to a beautiful fuchia that stains my lips and lasts for a very long time. I find myself using this colour a lot more now that it's winter here in Australia, it's not the typical colour most people would wear but I almost always get compliments whenever I wear it. If you're bored of your typical reds and hot pinks definitely give this a go.

 And Finally we have my all time favourite Red, again from the Rimmel Kate Moss line. '107' is the most beautiful dark red lipstick I have ever worn, it just compliments my skin tone so well and looks so gorgeous, a definite twist on the classic red. I think this shade of red just looks amazing on everyone. It looks darker in the tube than on the lips, It looks like a deep berry red on my lips and does not bleed outside my lip line at all!. As I said above, I really love the consistency of these lipsticks!

So there you have it!
Don't be shy and leave me a comment on your favourite lipsticks or lip products! :)

5 Seconds of Summer - No Place like Home Tour (5th of May 2014)

So this post is way overdue!
I am so sorry!

On the 5th of May of this year I was lucky enough to go and see "our" boys live! This was my second time seeing them live as the first was at the One Direction concert last year. I was super excited to see them and although the night did not go to plan they sounded AMAZING, in my opinion they sound better live than on their CDs (They have an Album out right now, go check it out on iTunes!)
One thing I can definitely say is how proud I am of our 4 Aussie boys (who grew up basically 40 minutes away from where I live! How crazy is that?!). I remember stumbling upon videos of Luke's covers and then a year later finding them, and watching now all 4 boys singing and covering songs, never did I think that they would make it as big as they did (Not that they lacked the talent but it's just so hard to get into the business!) I also remember seeing their music videos for "Out of my Limit" and "Heartbreak Girl" and getting so excited and playing them over and over.

Not only we're 5SoS amazing but so were their opening acts Mike Dignam and Little Sea! :)
(Check them out!)

So here are some pictures and some small video clips for your enjoyment!
(Note* I did not get any videos of the 5SoS performance as I was too busy enjoying myself ! You gotta live in the moment! I did however get some awesome pictures of what I call Ashtons Drum Face!)

 (This picture above is actually one of my fav pictures from the night even though all you see is hands and a bluured Luke because it was when he asked everyone to clap and I just think it was such a great moment to capture.)

(Who is going to the Australian 5SoS Rocks our Socks tour?!)
