September Beauty Favourites!

Hello friends! I know we're already way into the month of October but I have a few favourite products that I just had to share with you, most are new to me items and even brands I've only just found out about so here we go!


Oh Deer Sugar - Watermelon & Chia Body Scrub | $12.00
Let's start with this very delicious smelling product first! Oh Deer Sugar is a brand that I stumbled on recently and couldn't wait to try. They are an Australian company with a range of body butters, face masks, body scrubs and bath bombs and it's all completely vegan. I picked up this scent and have been absolutely loving it, it really exfoliates my skin without being too rough or leaving it feeling "gritty" like other body scrubs I've used before and it leaves my skin feeling so smooth afterwards. I can't wait to try more from the brand especially with how cute the packaging is!




Zoeva Luxe Cream Lipsticks - Shade: Floral Crown | $12.25
Now I've heard all about the Zoeva makeup brushes and decided to check out their website only to find they had vegan lipsticks and of course, couldn't control myself. I bought 3 out of the 6 shades with this beautiful pink being my favourite! They are all super rich, creamy, pigmented and wear so nicely on the lips. A full review on them all will be up soon for you!



Dose Of Colors Matte Lipstick - Shade: Kiss Of Fire | $18.00
Dose Of Colors released 4 liquid to matte lipsticks and you know I snatched them up ASAP, I love this shade and the forumla is so nice! It glides on smoothly, dries to a beautiful matte and doesn't leave them dry or cracked looking. I think I like this formula even more than the Aromi Beauty liquid lipsticks and that's definitely saying something!


My Daughter Fragrances - Scent: "Joyful" | $85.00
This was actually gifted to me very kindly by my mama and I loooooove the scent. I've only been using it for a couple days and already have had compliments from friends and family how nice it smells! It's described as "a fragrant love letter of orange flower, lime blossom, rose, jasmine and creamy sandalwood" and it smells so fresh and perfect for spring. Vegan perfume is one thing I've struggled with hard so finding brands like this makes me extremely excited!

 Innoxa Hydrating Creme Cleanser | $18.00
After absolutely loving the Day & Night Creme that I posted about here, I decided to try out more from the line and picked up this cleanser. It's so creamy and really cleans my skin but still leaves it moisturized and smooth. Perfect for dry skin and even better when used with the matching exfoliator and day & night cream!

Limelily 6 Pan Blush Palette | $59.00
My absolute favourite purchase in a long time. I picked up this palette from veganbeauty.com.au and I could not be happier, all shades are soft, smooth, pigmented and blend AMAZINGLY. They can be worn on their own or I've been mixing a few shades together and I honestly can't get over how good they look when applied! Easy to travel with and 100% worth the money.

And that's all! I hope you enjoyed reading a few of my favourite things, I would love to hear some of yours!

As always, thank you for reading! XO

  1. Hey girl

    I contacted ALOT of companies asking about their cruelty free status and Zoeva was one of them and I decided not to continue purchasing from them because they gave me a alot of shady-looking answers especially when I pestered them about WHICH asian countries they sold to when they told me they sold to the asian market too. They wouldn't even tell me which countries they were when they supposedly said they have no plans to sell to China. Why all the secrecy then?

    I dont trust them AT ALL! I would totally encourage you to e-mail them and ask them about their cruelty free status as well and I would be happy to send you copies of my correspondance with them too!

    Sorry for the sudden shitty news but I just wanted you to know before you bought some more stuff from them!

    1. Hello!

      That is so strange, I got really good responses when I contacted Zoeva and that they don't sell to any countries that require animal testing by law! However they did say I can't post their email on my blog (which is also strange but a lot of brands just ask people to email themselves!)

      Is it okay if you send me their responses to you?! samantha.davern@hotmail.com
