I'm Bernadette and I have a frightening obsession with all things beauty - especially makeup. So here I bring you a beauty blog to enable your shopping addiction.

Instagram

  • Boy oh boy have I been busy with snapping beauty photos (my messy room is proof of this). Lately I've been in a "I feel like experimenting with photo styles" kind of mood. So what did I do? Well I finally picked up pretty magazines to use as props (which you will be seeing lots of soon enough) but I've also been playing with camera angles & I've captured some photos I'm obsessed with. ⠀ ⠀ It's crazy when you look back to the beginning of when we first began blogging - my photo game has dramatically changed (something I was always insecure about) but over the past year my confidence in my photos has dramatically risen (even with the poopy Instagram algorithm). ⠀ ⠀ So this is one photo I was super duper happy with, sure it's random but I like taking random beauty shots just as much as ones with a purpose. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupblog #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #discoverunder100k #flatlaystyle #flatlayoftheday #flatlays #makeuptips #associationofbeauty #makeupcollection #makeuphoarder #beautyreview #foundations #foundationmurah #beautygram #beautyproduct #beautytips #beautyinfluencer
  • Sundays = Sparkle! And you can't have sparkle without highlighters! I actually can't remember back to a time where I didn't wear highlighters! How did we manage to beat our faces without them?⠀ ⠀ Can you do your makeup without wearing highlighter?⠀ ⠀ ^ Partly gifted⠀ ⠀ @maccosmeticsaustralia⠀ @ofracosmetics⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupblog #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #discoverunder100k #flatlaystyle #flatlayoftheday #flatlays #makeuptips #associationofbeauty #makeupcollection #makeuphoarder #beautyreview #highlighters #beautygram #beautyproduct #beautytips #beautyinfluencer #highlighteronfleek⠀
  • Today's random (I just felt like taking a pretty photo) You wouldn't know I actually love this style of flat lay so much, it isn't the easiest to photograph and I've realized it looks best on a marble background but I always feel extra fancy when I spread the products out. ⠀ ⠀ How do you like your flat lay? Squished or spread out?⠀ ⠀ @maybelline⠀ @essence_cosmetics⠀ @makeuprevolution⠀ @benefitcosmetics⠀ @rimmellondonau⠀ @nudebynature⠀ @natiobeauty⠀ @tartecosmetics⠀ @ponicosmetics⠀ ⠀ ^ Partly gifted⠀ ⠀
  • A NEW post had just dropped over on 'TMA' and it's another edition of my first impression series. This time I am talking about all the new foundations I've been playing with over the last 2 months ish (because I am a foundation addict & I can't stop myself from trying new ones!)⠀ ⠀ So pop on over to the blog to have a look see!⠀ ⠀ Are you a foundation addict? ⠀ @josiemarancosmetics @bareminerals @wetnwildbeauty @hourglasscosmetics @hudabeauty @thinlizzybeauty ⠀ ** Partly gifted⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupoftheday #makeupblogger #makeupblog #makeupaddict #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #beauty #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #milanicosmetics #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #sfs #instabeauty #gaintrick #colourpopcosmetics #makeupgeekcosmetics #discoverunder100k #tarte #sephora #meccacosmetica
  • VANI-T ⠀ ⠀ A pretty nifty little brand, with some awesome makeup even though they're known primarily for their tanning products. I can't seem to put that bronzer down!⠀ ⠀ Have you tried any @vanit_official makeup?⠀ ⠀ ^ Gifted⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #beautyproduct #makeupnatural #beautyreview #makeupgoals #ausbeautybabes #makeuphaul #influencers #beautyinfluencer #makeuplooks #makeupfun #highlighteronfleek #makeupmess #makeupblog #beautycommunity #makeupobsessed #australianblogger #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #makeupporn #associationofbeauty #makeupaddiction #slave2makeup #makeupcollection #beautygram #makeupbrushes #bronzer #discoverunder100k #beautyproducts #influencer #beautytips⠀
  • Maybelline hands down makes awesome mascaras! Like don't even @ me. The angel push up mascara & the original colossal volume (yellow tube) are tied at my #1 favourite mascara. The Makeup hoarder in me wants to literally buy every maybelline mascara in the range and try them all out but ya'know with only 2 pairs of eyes it's a bit OTT to buy that many mascaras. What's your favorite maybelline mascara? . . . . . . . . . #beautyproduct #makeupnatural #beautyreview #makeupgoals #ausbeautybabes #makeuphaul #influencers #beautyinfluencer #makeuplooks #makeupfun #highlighteronfleek #makeupmess #makeupblog #beautycommunity #makeupobsessed #australianblogger #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #makeupporn #associationofbeauty #makeupaddiction #slave2makeup #makeupcollection #beautygram #makeupbrushes #bronzer #discoverunder100k #maybelline #mascara
  • Hump day = A @thinlizzybeauty kind of day! I'm loving everything I've tried from them! The formula of that foundation is so awesome but it's too dark for me which is a bummer - it looks so flawless on the skin. The concealer has been a long time favorite & the powder is very nice!⠀ ⠀ Have you tried any Thin Lizzy makeup?⠀ ⠀ ^ Gifted⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupoftheday #makeupblogger #makeupblog #makeupaddict #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #beauty #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #discoverunder100k #beautyproducts #associationofbeauty #ausbeautybabes #beautyinfluencer #beautytips #thinlizzy #beautyreview #makeuphoarder #flatlays⠀
  • These 3 for @milanicosmetics are bomb AF! They are killing it with their base products. I'm digging that foundation like a lot & you know me with setting sprays, if they give a fine mist - I'm happy!⠀ ⠀ Have you tried any Milani base products?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupoftheday #makeupblogger #makeupblog #makeupaddict #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #beauty #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #milanicosmetics #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #sfs #instabeauty #gaintrick #colourpopcosmetics #makeupgeekcosmetics #discoverunder100k #tarte #sephora #beautyproducts⠀
  • SEPHORA HAUL .... and a little MECCA haul as well!⠀ ⠀ Often the hoarder in me loves to play in the land of drugstore makeup because I've gotten more bang for my buck (A.K.A I get more products) but I am attempting to be a more "minimal" type of makeup hoarder (I'm still buying them at the truck load but I'm refining my choices both with drugstore & highend makeup) so I'm on the quest to tick off those items that have been sitting on my wish list for AGES. You can imagine a lot of it is highend. ⠀ ⠀ Ps. I love you @sephoraaus for having After pay ⠀ pps. @meccacosmetica please do After pay!⠀ ⠀ Do try to be picky with your makeup purchases or are you (like me sometimes) a makeup cookie monster?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #makeupmess #makeupaddiction #makeupoftheday #makeupblogger #makeupblog #makeupaddict #beautycommunity #beautyproducts #beautyjunkie #bbloggeraus #bbloggerau #australianblogger #ausbeautyaddicts #beauty #makeupbrushes #makeupguru #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #benefitcosmetics #makeupporn #makeupobsessed #toofaced #instabeauty #hourglasscosmetics #colourpopcosmetics #makeupgeekcosmetics #discoverunder100k #tarte #sephora #meccacosmetica⠀
