01 Mood: Relaxed! It’s night time and I’ve just stepped out of a lovely warm shower.
02 Best thing about this weekend: It’s a 3 day weekend! Which as I’m sure you know, is far better than a 2 day weekend!
03 Last movie I saw: Defiance. It was a beautiful film, very touching. I cried a couple of times, but then I am a total soft touch. Daniel Craig’s accent threw me off a little though, he didn’t seem to settle on one particular accent.
04 What I’m watching: AFL. The Grand Final was today, so no more football for the rest of the year! Woe! But happy times because Geelong won! (My second favourite team in the competition)
05 Makeup lust: By Terry Light Expert Foundation in Rosy Light. I love you, you will be mine.
06 Listening to: Jessie Baylin – See how I run. I have this song on repeat.
07 Skincare Lust: Darphin Foaming Gel Cleanser with Water Lily. Come on, the name alone surely makes you want to buy it too?? Water lily!
08 Haircare Lust: I am really curious to try the Moroccan hair oil that Jessie Baylin swears by. She has practically perfect hair, so if it works for her, I’m hoping it might work for me too!
09 Current obsession: Sweet Valley High. I’m not gonna lie, I squealed out loud when I heard that they are making a SVH movie soon! I am way too excited for this. And why yes, I will be 25 years old in November.
10 Aim for this week: Get my dirty little paws on some By Terry foundation, stat.

Pantene recently launched their new Nourished Shine Collection and the wonderful people at Pantene were kind enough to send me out some of the products to try & review.
What is great about this product…
Simply put, they work! I tested out the Nourished Shine Shampoo, the Nourished Shine Conditioner & the 3 Minute Miracle treatment – and they are all products that I would repurchase. After a week of using both the shampoo & conditioner on a daily basis (necessary for my hair type) the appearance and feel of my hair has really improved. One major improvement is a lot of my flyaways (from blowdrying my hair nearly every day) have been tamed.
My favourite of the three is definitely the 3 Minute Miracle. I tried this out before heading out for the night, and I literally could not stop touching my own hair. This treatment makes your hair feel like silk. My friends even commented on how nice my hair looked – which is always a good thing.
Another great thing about these products is that you get excellent value for money, and a little bit of product goes a long way. The shampoo left my hair feeling clean but not squeaky, the conditioner was nourishing but still easy to rinse & the treatment did everything that it promised to do and more than I had expected.
What’s not so great about this product…
To be honest, I can’t think of anything I didn’t like about any of the 3 products that I tried. I will purchase all 3 again.
The Pantene Nourished Shine Collection is available from supermarkets, speciality stores and pharmacies throughout Australia. I would definitely suggest you try them, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

01 Mood: Hungover. Self inflicted, so I’m not allowed to feel too sorry for myself…
02 Best thing about this weekend: Having nothing to do for the rest of it? Haha! I went out last night, and this morning and am looking forward to “getting things done” around the house. If only the weather would clear up so I could do some laundry…
03 Skincare Lust: I need to replace my Dermalogica Soothing Protection spray… Can’t believe it’s lasted me so long!
04 What I’m watching: Project Runway US. I am currently downloading the next episode & am excited to see if there is another surprise celebrity guest judge this week! (admittedly, their guest judges are superior to Australia’s, sorry! lol)
05 Haircare lust: Pantene 3 minute miracle. This product is now a must have in my beauty cupboard. It really works. After 3 minutes my hair felt like SILK. I will be blogging about this a little more during the week…
06 Listening to: Matthew Santos – Drop a Coin. It’s rare for me to find a musician who makes me stop and really listen, but Matthew Santos has done just that. His voice is incredibly inspiring <3
07 Wardrobe Lust: The Elizabeth & James Alexandra blouse that I recently blogged about… I love it so much! I want it!
08 Outfit: Dark denim jeans, black empire waist cotton top & black ballet flats. Nice & simple today!
09 I want: Chocolate. Lots of chocolate.
10 Aim for this week: Organise some sort of budget…
