Product Pick of the Week: Urban Decay Naked Eyeshadow Palette – throwback or what? The search for some matte shades in my collection led me to this at the beginning of the week and I’ve been loving it. The shades Naked and Buck are my current favourite jam and eke out just the right levels of shadow/definition/’look I’ve made an effort’-ness The eyeshadow evolution continues…

Blog Post of the Week: Not necessarily directly beauty related, but it’s got to be Amelia’s  Gluten and Dairy-free Crepe Recipe. I’m not a healthy fooder the whole time, but when I’m in the house I like to keep my eats pretty clean, but I still harbour a huge sweet tooth so I’ve been rustling these up on mornings where I’ve got a little time on my hands. To me they taste just as good as the real McCoy – I top mine with strawberries, blueberries and agave syrup.

Must-Watch of the Week: Being a bit of a tech nerd myself – Maya’s Tech Haul was right up my alley. If you want to know what’s the best kit to get your YouTube on then this girl has got it covered. My shopping list now is on a whhhoooole different level. Plus I can’t get away from the fact that her skin is flawless – next stop: her skincare routine video. 

Added to the Wishlist this Week: Can we all just take a moment for the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette? That is all. Oh and the NARS One Night Stand Cheek Palette. I may have ordered both. Opps…
