I’m very excited about two things at the moment: one is that I now have enough time to start blogging again, and the other is that the weather is finally starting to cool down, so I can break out the jeans, jumpers, and these brill hand warmers. On my nails is a beauty-blogger favourite that I’m loving sick at the moment: Australis Nail Colour in ‘Sweatpea’ ($7.95 AUD). The pastel mint cream is a bit brighter than most pastel nail polishes, which stops it from ever looking streaky, and it’s pretty opaque, so you’ll only need two coats. Ah, the cozy life.
P.S. Speaking of the weather cooling down, I recently wrote a guest post for the Sukin blog, talking about why I love incorporating rosehip oil into my Autumn skincare routine. Check it out!
Note: Australis do not participate in animal testing [link].
I think I love the hand warmers even more than the delicious nail colour! Hand warmer details…?
Great that you are blogging again – I’ve missed you.
Thanks Jackie! They’re from ASOS (http://www.asos.com/au//Asos/Asos-Mix-And-Match-Pattern-Palmwarmers/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2262907). Down to $5.75 and free shipping!
Oooh, I’ve always wanted to try this one. It looks so pretty on you.
Such a shame I’ve banned myself from buying polish
Next up I’m going to try this one which is also cruelty free and looks similar to sweet pea.

Thanks so much Emma! The Mode nail polish looks pretty similar – I’ve never tried the brand, so you’ll have to let us know what’s it like if you do try it
I will. I tried their darker green polish this week and I’ve been so happy with it. This is only one coat: http://instagram.com/p/XEIUIQR6K0/ and Mode only costs $2.45 – score!
I also have glove envy. I also may be forced to go on ASOS – haha. And I usually pick up a Barry M or Dr Bronner product because they also don’t test on animals and having a UK brand makes me feel fancy
Oh, that’s a lovely colour. I never escape ASOS without buying at least one thing I don’t need, either!
Oooh such a pretty shade <3 love the hand warmers too!
Thanks lovely Jade
What a beautiful picture! It’s actually making me excited about being cold
And hurray and confetti for your upcoming birthday!
Now let me go and look for my own pair of ASOS handwarmers (I get suckered in their sale section every damn time…).
