OBSESSION: Endota Kakadu & Plum Face Mask

I love this Kakadu & Plum Face Mask by Endota. I've got quite oily skin with visible pores and I feel that this mask really helps to clean my skin.

Endota Kakadu & Plum Face Mask, AUD$35.00

I use it once a week and love the super clean feeling I get afterwards. I really feel that this mask helps to keep my skin clear (that and good diet of course)!

THE BASICS: A Good Base

A good face starts off with a good base. Always start off with a clean face, a good moisturiser or serum before you put on your primer.

My choice for primer is Laura Mercier Oil Free Foundation Primer, AUD$45.00.

DE-GLOSS: Facial Cleansers

Facial cleansers are one of the most important parts of your beauty routine. A clean face is the best base for your foundation.

I've tried several different cleansers, some of them department store brands and some of them you can find in the pharmacy.

 Nude Skincare Cleansing Facial Oil, AUD$50.00/100ml (a leader in natural skincare Nude's cleansing oil is a great cleanser which doesn't strip you of your natural oils so you don't get that tight, stretched feeling. It's a little pricier, but the oil does go a long way)

OBSESSION: All Saints

When I was living back in London, I happened upon this wonderful clothing brand near Spitalfields market (in the middle of the trendy East End, a stomping ground for vintage lovers).

I was immediately attracted to the asymmetric drape, grunge and cool attitude the clothes and shop exuded, not to mention it didn't smell like heavily perfumed second hand clothes!

I still remember my first ever purchase; a pair of skinny Estelle jeans that I wore to death.

So, the other night during one of my late night shopping sprees, I happened over the All Saints sale (50 - 70% off), got too excited and burnt a hole in my pocket...

THE BASICS: Gym Kit

Not everyone loves going to the gym, I for one am one of those people. I have to drag myself there but usually feel really good for having gone.

I totally stand by the fact that having a great gym outfit definately makes it easier to look at yourself in the mornings.

BASICS

2xu Women's Elite Compression Tight, AUD$185.00 (I swear by these pants, having poor circulation, they help to regulate blood pressure when I work out - not only that, it gives my poor weary knees some support!)

A good sportsbra like Odlo Bra High Ultimate Fit (I've been a fan of Odlo sportsbras for several years now, everytime I go back to Switzerland I stock up. Great support and durability.)
