Round 2 Hyaron and Threads in Chin and Brows

I apologise for my lack of posts, I had to halt my DIY beauty journey because not only had I underestimated the mammoth task of moving after being in one location for 20 years, but this occured during the biggest flood in my home town since the 1800s. Thankfully, things are now getting back to normal, including getting Nbn internet after 3 l o n g weeks, lol. 

I figured it was now time to pick up a syringe again and try and improve my skin. As a beauty DIYer I have to expect that not everything will go as planned and my DIY day did not go as smoothly as my other procedures to date.

Beginning with injecting Hyaron. I obviously am no expert but the needle tip just did not feel right. I persevered with a few injections but then changed the tip which felt sharper and better to inject. However, this did get me a little flustered and I wondered why I had product left at the end when I had added 2 more injection points. I assume that when I was having trouble with the needle I wasn't injecting the full 0.2 ml. Note to self, change out a needle as soon as you have trouble with it next time (smacks forehead)

Now the threads weren't too difficult, but because the skin I was inserting them into were more contoured surfaces than I had previously done. I had to go slower and have experienced more discomfort afterwards. My face has felt more tender.

On the grand scale of things, not a big deal but it can reduce confidence effecting the overall experience. With time I come to realise that it was still a successful result and something I can learn from.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
