ZOMG! I Am A Clinique It Girl!!!

clinique 2013, clinique it girl, clinique australia 2013

If you didn’t already know (through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram), I found out on Monday that I am a Clinique It Girl!!!  (That was the BEST cure for Monday-itis, I tell ya!)  YAY!!!  There are 2 of us and the other girl is called Danielle and she seems lovely too.

I don’t want to sound like a broken record which repeats itself over and over again, but again, I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, a BIG thank you to all the lovely people who took their time to vote for me.  And BIGGER thanks to all those who voted multiple times!!!  I definitely could not have done it without your support!

Here’s the video which helped me win the competition with BLOOPERS!!!  Yes, I am seriously such a DORK!!!  And in case it isn’t obvious, I had no script and no idea what would happen behind the camera.  I usually just go with the flow…

A lot of people have been asking me what I win and I’m not ENTIRELY sure yet but I will update this post when I find out.  But the main reason why I entered the Clinique It Girl competition is because it would be an amazing honour to represent such a fantastic brand through blogging and vlogging  - as you already know, that is what I love doing in my free time as I have no social life!!!  :P

THANKS AGAIN!!

 

New Beauty Video : Review & Tutorial of VS Sassoon Big Hair Styler 1000

VS Sassoon Big Hair Styler, Big Hair Styler 1000

Many pink moons ago, I was selected to be a VS Sassoon Video Review Trial Team Member and I did a vlog on the Wave Envy – I re-watched the video before making this video and arghhh…I was ghastly…the only good part is the Blooper Scene at the end :P  { watch it if you want }  Well, the bizarre thing is the people at VS Sassoon liked my ghastly video and offered to send me their latest new innovation – VS Sassoon Big Hair Styler 1000 - provided I do a video review.  How could I say no?

If you’re not a fan of watching Youtube videos (I’m not!  I am weird like that!), then let me break it down for you in words…

Beauty Vlog : Simple Messy Side Do Hair Tutorial

hair style, side hairstyle, easy hair tutorial

Thanks for all the lovely feedback and warm welcome for my new beauty channel.  I have uploaded a new beauty vlog today and it is in the form of a…*ahem*…hair tutorial…*shifty eyes*….  Watch the video and you will clearly see that I am no hair guru!!!  But hey, everyone has to start somewhere…

Apologies for wearing the wrong gear for the video.  I did not intentionally mean to flash my pink bra strap!!!  *cringe*

Thanks to ghd for lending me their new Black Gloss IV Styler for the video.  Am very sad to have to return it.  OMG!  Thank you ghd for allowing me to keep the Black Gloss IV Styler for future videos!  Special thanks to Scunci for gifting their Hi Styles and Mini Pins.  They will definitely have cameo appearances in future vids.  The bottles of sprays used in the video were from Oscar Oscar Salon goodie bags.
