Chi Chi Viva La Diva Lipstick in "Blonde Ambition"

So I promised you guys I'd show the fourth thing I bought when I was hauling Chi Chi. Here tis!

Please observe my incredible artistic talents.



What's The Colour?
Blonde Ambition is a wicked cool-soft-neon-matte coral that's just divine. The formula is really smooth and doesn't dry out my lips. It lasts for hours (but I'm not 100% sure how many as I don't put a stop watch on it) and stayed with me through my morning Mocha and lunch time Summer Rolls.



Wear It With:
I think the colour screams "Spring" and will look INCREDIBLE with a tan, bronze eyes and heaps of colour! This colour really brings out blue eye too!

I wore mine with a white lace top, blue-ish/purple scarf and bronze eyes!



Smell?
The formula has a sweet scent- it reminds me of a doll I used to own when I was little. You know the smell, kind of plasticy but really nice nonetheless?





Let's Get Down To Business, Anni. What's The Cost?
Well it's $19 BUT I got it for $10 from Target! That's like a 5th of what I pay for my Rouge Coco Shines, so I'm not complaining!

Get It From:

Chi Chi is an Australian brand, so it's only avail on Aussie shores :( Get it from Target, Myer and Gloss. The website is under contruction but hopefully they will sell it on there too!

Without flash and with blur

Will you guys be getting anything from the range? What is your "Must Have" Spring Lipstick?

Till we meet again,

Keep it Haute

EOTD Featuring Chi Chi's Beach Babe Palette

Remember this post where I showed you my little Chi Chi haul?

Well I decided to show you guys how gorgeous the Beach Babe palette is with an EOTD!

Many apologies for not swatching the shadows yet... I'm not going to lie, I've just been lazy! >.<

Here is a pic of the palette again:

For today's EOTD I uses the darkest shade closest to the bottom and the shade third from the top.


Here is the EOTD:

Silly me didn't use a primer so it's gone a bit blotchy....

I used the darkest shade wet and applied it as an eyeliner


In the pan, the light shade looks very peachy but on the eye it's turned a light silvery colour... I like the effect but it wasn't what I had in mind. I don't really think it looks very "beachy" but I'm not complaining!


Because I was using the Beach Babe palette, I decided to do my make up very tanned and summery (I'm so over Winter):


Face:
Chanel Mat Lumiere Foundation No 20
Illamasqua Undereye Concealer
Illamasqua Powder Foundation

Cheeks
Illamasqua Blush in Lover
Illamasqua Bronzer in Writhe
Illamasqua Gleam Cream

Eyes
Shadows as above
Oradess Eye Definer Eyeliner
Sublime de Chanel Mascara

Lips
Revlon Nude Matte 001 Lipstick

What will you guys be getting up to this weekend? How will you wear your make up AND have you bought anything from Chi Chi yet?!

Friday Loves NOTD ROTD and Some Good Chi

Please forgive me for the bad photo quality- I left my digital camera cord thing at home :(

I'm so in love with Chi Chi at the moment. It looks like the brand is doing some major re-vamping and improving on the formulas of a lot of their products... very exciting EEEEEE!

I recently purchased four things from Chi Chi (three are being reviewed here) and can honestly say I'm loving them... to the point where I'm thinking it's the best drugstore brand on the market. No. Joke. Yolk.

Pls to observe haul below:


 Beach Babe Eyeshadow Palette-
It's jam packed with gorgeous shimmery browns, golds and bronzes. Perfect for SPRING!










Chi Chi Lipgloss in "ChiChiWood"
This is a delightfully creamy gloss that adds juicy goodness to my lips. It's not sticky with long lasting power. I've been layering it over my lipsticks to give my pout a nice shine. It smells sweet... kind of like strawberries and cream!











See how creamy it is?!













This is such a stunning colour, aptly named "Bombshell".

I think this colour us perfect for the transition from Winter to Spring- it's neutral enough to go with anything, but still has that WOW factor!
Hopefully I look like a Bombshell wearing this!! Marilyn Monroe eat your heart out!

Todays NOTD is Sally Hansen "Pat on the Black"

Again, apologies for the pic quality but you get the idea!











Pat on the Black!













ROTD is a cheapie from DIVA! Can't remember how much it was!


What are you guys loving this Friday? What will you be getting up to?

I'm off with Alberto to do some "business networking" at the Gold Coast.

Champagne is hopefully involved.

Keep it Haute!
