Face of Australia Lip Quench SPF30+ lipstick in Silver Rose
Face of Australia Lip Quench SPF30+ lipstick in Silver Rose is neither silvery nor rosy, but a wearable pinky terracotta lipstick. Application is a snap thanks to the somewhat creamy texture, and the medium opacity means the colour compliments my natural lip tones rather than overpower them. If you’re used to vanilla- and candy-scent lipsticks, ...

Face of Australia Colour Pro nail enamel – Lady In Red
Did something happen when I wasn’t looking and all red nail lacquers went from being thin streaky messes to one coat wonders? Face of Australia’s Lady in Red nail polish is a rocket red creme that applies in, you guessed it, one coat. I’m not the steadiest hand around so two coats would’ve been better for ...

The Hunt for Red October – Face of Australia Divine Shine Lip lacquer in Cosmic Rush
I’m just going to come out and admit that this is a horribly biased post. I like Face of Australia. I like the brand a lot. They’re a great example of why price should never be taken as an indicator of product quality, ’cause Face of Australia is cheap as chips and great quality. Nothing ...

Face of Australia – Mineral Lip Shine in Oyster Shell
Mineral Lip Shine is a new-ish launch from Face of Australia, best described as being like the lovechild of a gel lipstick, a lipbalm and a shimmer explosion. Oyster Shell is a translucent beige with lots and lots and lots of silvery-beige shimmer. Oyster Shell is pleasant-feeling on the lips; not too gritty or textured. ...

Face of Australia – Molten Metallics part three
And here we are, the third and last part to my rundown of Face of Australia’s upcoming Molten Metallics nail collection! I thought it fitting that I’d finish with what I feel to be the polar opposites of the collection: the stand-out winner and the weakest colour. Arrrgh White Gold, why you gotta hate a ...

Face of Australia – Molten Metallics part two
Hot on the heels of Face of Australia Molten Metallics part one, here’s more pure metallic nail porn to make the wait ’til May feel even longer! Amethyst is a rich, slightly dusty grape purple metallic. The colour itself is a little more red than I’d normally associate with amethyst, but hey, purple is purple. ...

Face of Australia – Molten Metallics part one
I am a total sucker for metallic nail polishes. I know, I know. Metallics are but one misstep away from frosts, and once we go back to frosts we might as well just pull on our 80′s legwarmers and give up on western civilisation entirely. I don’t care. Metallics rule. Do you know what I ...
