I regularly get emails from readers, asking me about various beauty products. Most of those questions fall into one of two categories:
- Is this product any good?
- How much does it cost in Australia?
I’m not a beauty expert by any stretch, but I do know where to find this information if I need it. Since I can’t answer every question individually, I’ll let you in on my sources instead.
- For product reviews, Makeup Alley is sensational. For example, for the reader who asked about Stila eyeshadow, they have 225 Stila eyeshadow reviews.
- For Australian prices, the Vogue Australia Forums are the place to go. If you can’t find a discussion about the product already, post a new topic asking about it and you’ll usually get a response very quickly.
- For cheaper cosmetics in Australia, four sites worth checking out are: StrawberryNet, Smart Poppy, Fountain Cosmetics and Fresh Frangrances and Cosmetics.
And if you really want to know what I use and recommend, it’s all here.
Where to buy Stila in Sydney?
Stila’s available at Mecca Cosmetica.
What do I do about my bacne and back hair?
Waxing back hair can cause bacne; trimming it doesn’t. How do I know this? Don’t ask.
