Australis Mulberry Glow

I'm not sure whether or not it's my Christmas spirit shining thru or just the need for some change, but I'm creeping into 'I love plum + wine lip shade' territory. It's a place I've never been before, so my steps are tentative, but I think come Christmas day and NYE I will be rocking these like I've been doing it for years! These dark shades seem festive to me, and remind me of winter coats, snow, and Christmas trees. Great, considering we are heading into summer...

I picked up this Australis lip gloss in Mulberry Glow in Priceline today, and you wouldn't believe the price... $0.01c AUD! That's correct, ONE CENT! I looked at the checkout chick bewildered when she scanned it...but then quickly hurried thru the transaction lest she change her mind about such a bargain! I also grabbed an eyeliner at this price, and another shade of gloss for $1.47. Not the worst $1.50 I've spent!

The girl at the checkout said it was an old colour, and a bit of the silver writing had rubbed off this particular gloss, but it was sealed and in otherwise perfect condition.

It feels a lot darker on than it appears in these images, though it is quite a sheer wash of dark colour, if that makes sense! The gloss is a little stickier than I'd like it to be, but I'm really not in a position to complain with this one. Bargain of the year!
