The month of May seems quieter on the new products front, but I have a sneaking suspicion it is because June will be a big one. But don’t you worry, there are still lots of great products to tickle your fancy this month. The following ones got me jumping for joy.

Each month the beauty industry globally releases hundreds of new products, shades and collections. It can be really hard to stay on top of all the new pretty products that come out, even if you are the savviest shopper around. Starting now, I am going to attempt to make the process a little easier for everyone by posting my favourite new releases each month.
Think of this new series as a monthly hit list of items to keep an eye out for. As we are in the middle of March, it means a change of season and we see all the awesome new collections hit shelves. The first month of a new season is always the most exciting so without further delay, let’s get into the hottest products to hit shelves this March.
Just one of the new collections from M.A.C Cosmetics, aptly titled Shop MAC

There are so many wonderful people out there who open up their homes at this time of year to their friends and family. You are good people, and for those of you whose guests haven’t arrived yet, they will probably be ringing your door bell any minute. I am not just talking about over night house guests, I am also talking about hosting meals, parties and other holiday festivities. When it comes to people coming over, there are some minor things you need to prepare for.
Today I am going to point out a few of those beauty basics, and in case you don’t have them on hand, they are items that can easily be picked up from your local supermarket.
Keeping germs to a minimum is essential. The more people in one place, the more germs there are. If you Read the rest of this post

If you are looking to buy any fragrance for loved ones this Christmas you are in luck. That also applies to those who are just looking to try something new or like to stock up on their favourite perfume.
GraysOutlet.com is the newest shopping site branch-off from GraysOnline.com, the Australian auction site. The new GraysOutlet.com.au is the first online outlet centre for Australia, kind of like DFO but online, and starting today they have thousands of fragrances on sale. Prices run at nearly 80% off the retail price, that is in most cases 20% cheaper than StrawberryNet.com.
There are over 140,000 men’s and women’s fragrances available and the prices are just jaw dropping. Here are just 5 of the ridiculous bargains I think are worth snapping up.
