Arctic Monkeys New Album - AM

Okay, I don't study music but I know something good when I hear it.

Holy Fudge, this album has just been on repeat 24/7
I think I am addicted, the other night I stayed up till 12.30 (which is late for me) because I couldn't stop listening to this album.


1. Do I wanna know?
2. R U mine?
3. One for the road
4. Arabella
5. I want it all
6. No.1 party anthem 
7. Mad sounds
8. Fireside
9. Why'd you only call me when you're high?
10. Snap out of it
11. Knee Socks
12. I wanna be yours


So basically song 1-12 is perfect. I love all of them, like usually there's one or two songs I am not too keen on, on an album. But they are all good, real good. There are a lot of rhetorical questions in the song list, like more than usual (I just noticed this.) My favourite one for lyrics is probably I wanna be yours. like as if 


I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
Breathing in your dust
I wanna be your Ford Cortina
I won’t ever rust
If you like your coffee hot

Let me be your coffee pot 

Aren't the best lyrics you've ever heard?
I also love R U Mine? that's perf too.
they all are. This review isn't too helpful, but that's because this album is too great for words.

Arctic Monkeys you've done it again, congratulations on being too perfect for your own good.

I also recently did another photo series -it's gifs actually, I make gifs now haha- to this album, it's basically what inspired me, check it out on my photo blog.


September Favorites




 Time for September favourites!


But first of all, what the fudge?! it's September, this year has gone so quickly, I still say 2012 when people ask me what year it is.


First on my reasonably short list is Bourgeois Healthy Mix Serum, I wanted to go for something really sheer, because it's hot here in Australia, like real hot. 



I was put on to this by Essie Button, who has been raving about this for a while now. So while I was in my local Priceline I was stocking up on products and decided to buy this. 
Notice the berries on the packaging? Yep, that's what this foundation smells like, it smells healthy. My skin has been better. In the afternoon when your skin begins to wear down and produce oil, this foundation doesn't wear off, it becomes dewy and I quite like how it looks when this happens. I am wearing it in the selfie up top.



Numero Deux is Maybelline Hyper Glossy Liquid Eyeliner. This doesn't smudge, I have never had an eyeliner that doesn't smudge. My eyelids are supa supa oily, like holy crap I could probably deep fry some chips in the amount of oil my eyelids have (too descriptive..?)
My only fault is that the brush just gets eyeliner all over my eyelashes,
bearing in mind that I have naturally very long eyelashes, so it has always been difficult for me not to get it on my eyelashes. The eyeliner itself though is reasonably glossy and I do enjoy it quite a bit.
















Third is another Maybelline product and it's the Maybelline Lip Liner in No. 20 Nude. When I first put this on I always get a little concerned that it is too brown to be natural, but after a couple of minutes it like blends itself with your natural colouring and becomes a really lovely colour. It lasts quite a while, I would apply a small amount of lip conditioner before hand though, I use Avon Anew Lip Conditioner.














My last Product is Stila's Metallic Eye Foils which came out this month. I wore this to my year 12 Formal. I won't do a review here though, I am going to post a separate review in a while.


Sorry for not posting for a while, my posts are going to be sparse for the next few months as I am doing my final exams for high school! I graduated last month and now I have my study break for my up coming exams, then I am done! Forever!! 

Stay tuned xx
