I am very happy to be putting this video out finally. It was filmed a few months back, but my laptop crashed so I lost all my files. If you have trouble recovering your files from a dead drive or it is asking you to initialize (wipe); there is a really helpful program to make the process almost painless.
I will not list said program in this blog, but if you are in need of it I will reply in the comment section for those who ask. I hope you enjoy my first travel vlog! It shows some of the hidden gems Australia has to offer. As well as some of the native wild life, that you can see close-up.
This is a question that I'm sure you have asked yourself when comparing the price difference between the real and 'fake' makeup that will come up on online shops such as Ebay. Suddenly, an eyeshadow palette that would normally cost around $80 AUD ($50 USD) can be compared to a fake eyeshadow palette that seems to look the same or close for around $6-$12 AUD ($3-$8 USD).
We assume that the formulas and colours will be close and that actual effort would be put into making these safe for us to use. While you may find the occasional decent product, the truth is there is no quality control for where these products are manufactured and/or packaged. According to other blogs/news sites (such as Dailymail.com.uk & Mashable.com) these products allegedly can contain anything from traces of rat feces to household cleaning products. Some can even be tainted my cyanide. Needless to say the so-called 'quality' is a big question mark, and you are taking a gamble on your health by using them. Over this last year I have tried many different products that have come from places like China (the world capital for fakes), Malaysia,Philippines and Singapore. For me, it is absolutely worth the 'peace-of-mind' to pay the full amount for an authentic product. I want to be able to trust what I am putting on my body thoroughly tested as well as safe to use. Not only is it important that it be tested, but not tested on any helpless animals! This is a practice that really needs to be eliminated from the cosmetic industry, and hopefully worldwide one day. Thank you for reading my blog, and I hope this post helps you.
