FOTD Featuring Face of Australia

A short while back, my sweet blogger friend Sarah from A Beautiful Story, sent me a couple of things from her side of the world: Australia! One of the items she sent was a Face of Australia Lip Quench SPF30+ in Sweet Nectar. I quickly fell in love with this shade and it feels great on the lips. Nice staying power too! I thought I would share the look I wore to the Energizer event that included Sweet Nectar:

Face: Vanish from Miracle Skin Transformer as a face primer (I am still testing this out but so far it is fantastic! Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint, my go-to foundation. E.l.f All Over Color Sticks for blush and highlight: Pink Lemonade and Golden Peach

Eyes: A few shades from my Urban Decay Naked Palette. Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencil – Bourbon. bareMinerals Flawless Definition Volumizing Mascara

Lips: Face of Australia Lip Quench – Sweet Nectar and a touch of Bobbi Brown Lip Gloss (can’t remember which one!)

I truly fell in love with Sweet Nectar and would love to try more products from this lovely Australian brand.

Have you tried anything from Face of Australia yet?

That’s so sweet of Sarah!! I love your glowing look! Haven’t tried anything from that brand. Do they sell here? I know makeups from Australia are way more expensive than US.

  Thanks, Kath! It was too sweet of Sarah I know. As far as I can tell they do not sell in the US :(.

I love that lip shade! I haven’t tried any of the Face of Australia products but definitely would like to now! I just looked up their website and love how affordable everything is.

I just got a sample of the Miracle Skin Transformer in my Birchbox and am excited to use it. I am glad you are enjoying it so far. Love the look! Thanks for sharing!

  Thanks, Kristina! Sweet Nectar is such nice color, very flattering. The MST Vanish has been amazing, love it as much as I love their concealer at this point. It is worthy of replacing my favorite Smashbox primer!
