QUICKIE UPDATE: A little bit of everything + disco ball nails ft ORLY Can't Be Tamed & Be Brave

So, once again, I might have gone on another unannounced hiatus. 

#BeautyBloggingFail #12837127319237912 

This was my excuse - cramming and squeezing every drop of my brain juice dry for my final and (hopefully) last exam for my Chartered Accountant Program! That was how I spent my 24th birthday too -have a hot time sexing it up with my EBA notes.

Don't mind the fatty TimTams - its part of my exam diet. ;)

I know, I have left you ladies hanging from my Beauty Bloggers Utopia Day 01, which was over a week ago. Shame on me. Don't worry, I promise to kill your bandwidth in my next post with more photos from my #BBU12 weekend. ;)

For now, just a quickie update about what have been happening in the past 10 days or so when I disappeared from le blog:

Attended Bio Oil's 10th birthday at Chiswick which left me leaving with a 5-months-food-baby! A more detailed update on that to come. 

I won a giveaway from my fellow base toucher - Michaela from LatherRinseRepeat! She incorporates some pretty damn awesome GIFs in her blog post, show her (and her GIFs) some love! 

A word of advice, I hope you aren't drinking or eating as I will not be held responsible for anything that lands on your computer screen (mainly whatever you have in your mouth at that moment). ;)

 I received a MASSIVE love package from my favourite LA chica - Gwen <3 nbsp="nbsp" p="p">

I will be sending some love to your way shortly!! 

 Turned another year older - to the ripe age of 24.

And no longer do I enjoy a massive birthday cake - a variety of nomlicious cake pawns a massive cake of the same flavour ANYTIME. Maybe, I am just a #fatshit ;)

Those lemon tart & ricotta cheese cake were orgasmic!!!

Signed and sealed - starting a new job on Monday!! I am excited yet nervous at the same time as this is something quite different to what I have done in the past 2 years! Nevertheless, it's a fresh, new beginning!!!

Also, lunch buddy required in Bondi Junction, enquire within. ;)

Weekend DISCO NAILS featuring ORLY Can't Be Tamed & Be Brave - ready to PARTY ROCK tonight with birthday drinks and a night out with the crew!!! 

Hope you guys have a lovely weekend ahead and happy Friday!!! 

What have you got planned for the weekend?

XOXO,

LOVE LIST #3

Love List. Pretty self explanatory I reckon. 

Love List. A new feature on Through Beauty Eyes that will appear every fortnight (or weekly if my life became interesting out of a sudden).

Love List. It will be a list of "stuff" I am lovin at the moment. 

I have been loving: 

1. COLD CIDER on a HOT & SUNNY day. 

I am definitely not a beer person (hello Sav Blanc & CC Dry) but nothing beats a cold cider on a hot and sunny day. My favourites are Rekorderlig & 5-Seeds. I can SO foresee cider becoming my summer-to-go-to-bev. :P

Eau Universelle Citrus Cologne (unisex); Eau Captivante Aromatic Shower Gel (for men)' Eau Ravissante Floral Cologne (For women)

2.  SPRING SCENTS FROM L'OCCITANE EN PROVENCE COLLECTION*

I don't know about you but I prefer light & fresh citrus-ish floral scents for the warmer months. The colognes and shower gel above have been on high rotation as of late - Eau Ravissante Floral Cologne as an everyday spray; Eau Universelle Citrus Cologne if I wanted something stronger and longer lasting; and Eau Captivante Aromatic Shower Gel on an alternate day basis.

Bold Gold; Bad to the Bronze; Audacious Asphalt

3. MAYBELLINE EYESTUDIO COLOR TATOO

Pigmented, long lasting and affordable! BAM! I am in love with these babies now - a swap of Bad to the Bronze all across my lids, a generous layer of my favourite mascara, some blush and bronzer and finish it off with a loud and bold lippie - I am good to go! It's definitely a spring/ summer must have! 

4. A WEEKEND FILLED WITH BEAUTY BLOGGERS UTOPIA AWESOMENESS!

Thanks to the awesome Sara-May from The Make Up Utopia and Larah Kennedy who made #BBU12 happened. It was a great weekend filled with make up, beauty, make up class by the talented Cameron Jane of CJ MakeUp, nail art funtime with Hello Darling, and the amazing keynote speakers who left me feeling motivated and inspired. Not to mentioned, the generous LustHaveIt treated us girlies with TheLegallyBlonde Musical preview AND a backstage pass! More on the #BBU12 later! :D

5. BLISTEX & LUCAS PAPAW OINTMENT 

I blame it on the change of weather - my lips has been going haywire and crackin left right and centre. These 2 products have been my saviour before my usual lipsticks application.
