How to look beautiful without makeup: A simple guide

 Hey everyone. Its me again. I know i know. i usually only share fashion tips, tricks and news. But i found this new product and i just have to share. The pinknights oil absorbing stick. OMG where has this been for my whole life?!


 For reference, I have dehydrated, oily, acne-prone skin. Through some research I discovered I've damaged the moisture barrier recently with sun, tretinoin, Neutrogena Deep Clean, and then adding salicylic acid. Sigh. haha. After overhauling my products to gentle cleansers and moisturisers from Paula's Choice, I'm still getting oil overproduction on my forehead and t-zone about 2-3 hours after my AM cleanse and moisturise. It only arrived yesterday but I used it yesterday afternoon and this morning and it is great!! You roll it around on the oily spots and it absorbs excess oil. It was something i brought on a whim because i hate having an oily face, but at the same time those blotting sheets are so so wasteful and carrying them around is a nightmare. 

I'm also for finding products that are recyclable and honestly this one looks amazing and it is natural. i love that its small and compact  (the same size as my lipstick) and i can easily just pop it in my purse and use it throughout the day. 



 And it doesn't seem to make my skin feel as dry afterward as a blotting sheet does. Thought I would share with the rest of you!

Vivrelle - game changer in the luxury retail market

I like many of you love fashion, but staying relevant in fashion can be really hard. From Valentino to Chanel and Celine to Prada, the seasons are bustling with new statement pieces that i want in my closet.  But fashion, especially luxury fashion can be such an expensive endeavour to keep up with. And with most of my paycheck going towards one bag, it can be very difficult to be constantly updating and changing my wardrobe. While most of us look at posts from high fashion influencers like Chiara Ferragni and Jessica Stein, and their ever evolving wardrobe of luxury handbags and fantasise about what new bag to add to our collection. They change bags weekly and move onto a different brand, size and colour, making it difficult to emulate these fashion icons. I love buying a new bag, the smell of new leather and the feeling of peeling the little plastic away from the clasp (is probably my favourite part) no matter the brand, size or colour i find it just as exciting no matter whic...

pastels or mistel? Gucci pre fall 2020

Pre- fall 2020. Luxury designers scramble to release their latest fashion master pieces.  Gucci - pre-fall, the excitement was felt amongst the millenial generation as they cued in front of the marble doors awaiting to see the latest.  It's no secret in the last 10 years Gucci has lead the charge in the most sought after designer brand, especially among the millennial generation. if i'm not mistaken it was part of the reason the saying 'It's all Gucci' cottoned on and became the newest slang term to describe when things going well.  Let's not forget the Gucci slides, that have been on everyone's wish list, since the brand targeted the younger generation.  With the introduction of the new collection, Gucci diversified itself from the luxury market. With the introduction of pastel colours that add a light hearted feel to the newest collection, medling in with the tradition tan printed Gucci logo.   image reference:  https://www.gucci.com/au/en_au/pr/women/han...

COVID impact on luxury

 2020 has been one giant... i'm just going to say it Cluster duck of a year. But from trial comes triumph, with some companies absolutely flourishing and some gurgling down the toilet. The unfortunate need for companies to pivot, has left some with no choice but to close down. From fashion shows being streamed online, and shop closures. Luxury has relied heavily on their online presence to continue their revenue and trading through the pandemic. With many economist predicting an economic down turn, decrease in sales and all round shrinkage in the luxury niche.  I am of the opinion that the luxury category was only minimally affected by this crisis, and i think the recent black Friday sales have proved that the desire for luxury items is well and truly alive and well. With Valentino nearly selling out of their sale items within the first 48 hours.  I know crazy right?! and Valentino wasn't the only luxury brand that experienced literal sell out crowds, with Dior, Balenciag...
