Tight-Ass Tuesday - Essence Soft Touch Mousse Makeup

I hope you are all having a fantastic week! I have just started a brand new job so my apologies for the lack of blog love. I am nicely settled in so I promise I will be back to my regular daily posts as of today!

But onto something far more exciting than my excuses for missing days. It's Tight-Ass Tuesday! 

Approx $8 at Target

I recently picked up this Mousse foundation from Target for around $8. I had heard some good things about the brand Essence so I was really excited to try it out.

I love Mousse Foundation, I find it to be super moisturizing for my skin and really blends in nicely while giving a nice coverage. 

The Mousse is super light and fluffy and applies really well. It has fantastic staying power and doesn't go patchy which is something I look for in a foundation. 

I love this product, I have had it for about a month now, and I am almost out, so a trip to Target to get more is definately on the cards for me this weekend! 

Essence have some fantastic products and their line is extremely affordable so I suggest you check them out!

What are your thoughts on Mousse Foundation?

Tight-Ass Tuesday - Australis Lip Butter

For this installment of Tight-ass Tuesday, I thought I would talk about a lip product. Lips are one of the first things i notice on a person, so I always try and make sure my lips are looking good.

Australia Lip Butter - Ringa Rosey

I recently found this lip butter from Australis. As they are celebrating 25years, Priceline has a 25% off sale on the entire Australia range.

As a result of the sale, it cost around $3 but when not on sale it retails for about $5 so its still well within the Tight Ass Tuesday guidelines.

I got the color Ringa Rosy which is a nice subtle pink. It is not super pigmented, however it's extremely moisturizing which is something I look for in a lip butter. I also hate when you use your finger to apply a gloss and it's so pigmented you are left with a messy finger so this product is ideal for me.

I absolutely adore the packing, I think it's so cute. There is a small display mirror on the inside of the lid, which I love also. I think the concept of the ball like container is fun and it's easy to open and get the product.

I love this product, I will definitely be popping along to Priceline soon to check out some different colors.

Has anyone tried any of the other colors that they recommend?

Until Next Time

Tight-Ass Tuesday!!

I always love reading about inexpensiveitems that work really well.

As quite the bargain hunter myself, Ithought each Tuesday I would embrace my inner 21 year old student self andrelive ‘Tightass Tuesday’ – but this time I’ll skip the pizza and beer! EachTuesday I will write about my recent inexpensive purchases and/or my favoritesale items!

So lets get started:

RimmelLondon. 

Recover - Anti-FatigueConcealer

It seems Rimmel is all about making us look awake!

 I recently picked this up at CosmeticFragrance Direct in Market City, Sydney for only $4 (Reduced from $10.50)

I chose the color ‘100 Ivory’ which worksreally well with my skin. It blends in nicely, but also gives enough coverage toreally hide those problem spots.

The packaging is… politely put, what youexpect for $4. But as long as the product is good, the packing is not somethingthat really bothers me, particularly when the product is under the $10 mark. 

When all is said and done, I think the product is okay, andwell worth the $4 I spent.

If you are in Sydney and find yourselfin China Town, I definitely recommend you check out Cosmetic Fragrance Direct,there are so many bargains to find in that store. I did a massive shop there, so expect many more posts and videos of my finds!

What are your fave ‘cheap’ products andwhere do you find them?

Until Next Time
