As the colder months approach, adjusting your skincare routine becomes essential to combat the harsh effects of winter weather. However, amidst the wealth of skincare advice available, there are several myths that can lead to ineffective or even harmful practices. Here are some common skincare myths to avoid this winter: Myth 1: You don’t need sunscreen in winter. One of the most pervasive myths is that sunscreen is unnecessary during winter months. In reality, UV rays are present year-round and can still cause damage to your skin, leading to premature aging and increased risk of skin cancer ..read more

Given that we are now at that special time of the year where some of us have more (ever-elusive) time than usual, I thought I'd share what content I'm consuming, and where I'm finding it. Of course, it's beauty content but with a touch of wellness, culture, lifestyle and fashion.

Can we talk about the holiday season? I mean; the twinkling lights, the festive cheer, and oh, the endless parties! It's the most wonderful time of the year, but let's not forget that our skin might not always agree with the festivities. So, grab a cup of your favourite comforting drink and let's chat about the dos and don'ts of skincare during the holiday season. First things first, I get it – the holiday season is all about indulgence. From those extra glasses of bubbly to that second (or third) slice of pavlova or Xmas cake – we are all guilty of overdoing it a bit.  So, rule number o ..read more

As far as beauty treatments go – Botox certainly enjoys a certain “cult-like” status or popularity if you will amongst celebrities (that’s if they admit to it!) and in the media at large. That does not mean it’s for everyone though. In fact, a lot of people cringe incredibly hard at the idea of poking needles into our faces in order to “freeze” time – for multiple reasons. Some simply don’t like the thought of needles, others don’t like the connotation surrounding injectables and others simply don’t see the point – Botox is temporary after all and is a treatment that wears off after 3-4 months ..read more

As we're nearing the end of another year (but seriously, where has it gone?), I thought it would be fun to share the standout beauty products for 2023 in my humble opinion.

I'm such a product junkie and after my recent trip to Korea, it's possibly hit another level. Thanks Olive Young for alllll your bargains - thank goodness I culled my beauty stash a few months back. However, if you too are in the mood for a new goodie, here's what I'm currently raving about: Refy Lip Blush in Amber for a Jess Hunt inspired lip. B. By Banila Water Drop Veil Tint in Pink Blossom for a barely-there just-bitten lip. Livani Signature Duo for their ability to deeply cleanse while hydrating and moistursing my hair like no other! Christophe Robin's Regenerating Mask with Prickly Pear ..read more

Our trip to Seoul, South Korea was incredible. We ate, drank, walked and shopped more than we can remember. My many many trips to Olive Young were a highlight, and it's safe to say I'm completely obsessed with #kbeauty.  The texture and quality of Korean cosmetics are second to none, and you only need to try a Korean sunscreen to agree with me. When I realised that Olive Young not only ship to Australia, but offer free shipping over USD $60, I mean.  Here are my top picks from Olive Young: Skincare Edition: ma:nyo Pure Cleansing Oil  Dewytree Urban Shade Cover & Fit Sun La ..read more
