Something big happened recently in the Australian beauty community - Sephora.com.au finally stepped up their game and launched their online store! This was an exciting news for us beauty addicts and shoppers who don't live in Sydney or Melbourne.

Throughout the month of November, Sephora.com.au has been slowly making more brands and products available online, this includes one of the most hyped about brands - Becca Cosmetics. I was thrilled when they invited me to celebrate their online launch and to pick a few products to try from the brand. We all know that I am a big fan of their Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed, so I couldn't contain my excitement to test out the other products from Becca Cosmetics and share with you my thoughts.

Hi all! As most of you might know I currently have a Christmas giveaway going on on my Instagram and I am giving away five popular Zoeva eyeshadow palettes. There will be 5 lucky winners in total and each winner will receive one palette. (Please refer to my giveaway post for more details if you want to enter.)

Out of the five palettes in the giveaway, I only own four of them - Cocoa Blend, Naturally Yours, Rodeo Belle and Rose Golden. The one I don't have in my collection is En Taupe, which is their newest release with some taupes and nudes. I thought I would quickly do a swatch post of the four palettes I have to help you choose your preferences for the giveaway, or you might just want to check out these swatches for future references :P

Laura Mercier isn't a new brand to me. I've always heard people say good things about their products including their best sellers - foundation primers, tinted mositurizer and translucent powder. Oddly, I have never picked up anything from Laura Mercier in the past until the Indiscretion Face Illuminator. It is my first ever Laura Mercier purchase and I'm hooked since!

Couple weeks ago, I finally took the courage and decided to pick up a few of their popular products, because Julie and Thy raved about them all the time and I trust their opinion! So I thought I would share with you what I purchased in my recent haul, to give you some ideas and let you know what the star products are from Laura Mercier.

2015 has passed by so quickly and it has definitely left me with lots of memorable memories. This year I have achieved so much more than I expected and have made many good friends along the way. When I look at the calendar, I can't believe it's already almost the end of November and Christmas is just around the corner.

To celebrate Christmas and my Instagram account hitting the big 10K milestone together, I have decided to host a giveaway for my followers. 5 lucky winners will be picked in this giveaway and each of them will receive one of the following palettes. Read below for the instructions to enter. :)

If you follow me on Instagram (@thehanihanii), you would already know that I recently picked up the Urban Decay Vice 4  Eyeshadow Palette (RRP $98 AUD) and some of you have requested to see swatches. So I thought I would give you a brief overview of the palette in case you are interested in getting one.

It's that time of the year again! Priceline is having another 40% cosmetics sale on Wednesday 18th and Thursday 19th Nov. Time to make a list and get you wallet ready. Here are some of my personal favourite drugstore picks for you to consider:

As part of Laura Mercier's 2015 holiday collection, Laura has released an eyeshadow palette that contains 12 eyeshadows. These shades are all hand picked by Laura to create the perfect sleek and chic eye looks. This palette leans slightly more warm-toned with a mix of matte, sateen and lustre finishes.

NARS has recently collaborated with an iconic fashion photographer, Steven Klein, to bring us a limited edition collection for holiday 2015. In this collection, they have included a range of products - blushes, eyeshadows, lip products and nail polishes. They also have a few different palettes and value sets to choose from that I think would make a great Christmas present for any makeup lover.

September went by very quickly, where did all the time go? As some of you might know, I am now in my final year of uni. I can almost see the end to this tunnel! My course will be ending in November, so in the next two months, I will have to focus on my final year project and things are going to be hectic. I will try to keep up with blogging, I promise. Otherwise, you can find me on Instagram. I will still be posting on Instagram regularly and keeping everyone updated at least once a day (I'm hoping *fingers-crossed*).

In this month's favourites, there are some makeup products, hair care and a perfume. I didn't get to experiment with too many new beauty products, but I did find some great ones that are quickly becoming my staples.

Below are products that I have been lusting for a while - some are new products and some are releasing soon. So I thought I would show you my current Mecca wishlist, including some upcoming holiday collections.

We are finally at the end of this giveaway journey that has been going on for over a month. I still cannot believe that time went by so quickly. Some people say time go faster as we get older, I think it is quite true. Time is slipping through my fingers.

Little reminder to everyone, Giveaway Part 4 will be closing on 20 Sept 2015 9PM AEST, remember to enter before it is too late. Follow me on Instagram or Twitter for any updates and announcements.

Moving on to our last 2K giveaway, surprisingly it is not makeup or beauty related. It is a fashion item that I picked from a brand called Charles and Keith. It is a Singaporean fast fashion brand founded in 1996 by two brothers, Charles and Keith Wong. Their product ranges from footwear to bags and accessories - including belts, sunglasses, bracelets and tech accessories. Charles and Keith constantly adds new designs to their stores every week. If you are not familiar with the brand, make sure you go check it out for some fashion-forward pieces.

Time is passing by so fast! I cannot believe it is already September and there are ONLY less than 3 months left before I finish my degree. :O Scary, I know. It feels like it was yesterday when I just started my final year and I don't think I am ready for the next stage in life.

Enough said. Here we have my 2K Giveaway Part 4! WOOHOO! This giveaway is themed around the bling bling baby. This includes the Benefit Bling Brow kit, which I think is absolutely gorgeous to jazz up your look. Perfect for Halloween and the holiday season!

**Reminder** Giveaway Part 3 will be closing on 13 Sept 2015 9PM AEST, be sure to enter because who doesn't love Becca x Jaclyn Champagne Pop highlight. Make sure you are following me on Instagram or Twitter for any updates and announcements.

Hi guys! It's time again for another giveaway announcement. I can't believe we are already on the third one and that is half way through all my giveaways. A little reminder, my Part 2 Giveaway is still active, please check it out if you haven't already. It will be closing this coming Sunday at 9pm AEST. Be sure to follow me on Instagram (@hanihaniiiii) and Twitter (@thehanihaniiiii) for updates and reminders! (I'm a lot more active on Instagram. haha)

This giveaway is about our beautiful face. Let's get to the products included in this giveaway! :)

It's the time of the month. I cannot believe how fast July has passed by and we are only one month away from Spring. Where did all the time go? Anyway, let's go ahead and see what I have been loving this month.

Hey everyone! Long time no see!

After owning two contour kits that are both in a powder formula, I have decided to look for a cream one to try out. So recently I have come across the Laura Mercier Flawless Contouring Palette on Instagram and I was instantly intrigued, cause we all know Laura Mercier's products never disappoint. Lucky enough, my LM counter received their stock early, and I was able to snatch one before their official release date.
