One week later, I have my Melbourne holiday haul. I have to say, I know that this looks like a lot. But this ended up being much smaller than I anticipated. Many of the items that were on my wishlist were out of stock at every location I went to. So, I guess a future…

Emmie Reviews – Dior Forever Skin Perfect Multi Use Foundation Stick
And I’m back from my trip! Melbourne was lovely. Very cold and dreary, but lovely all the same. Shout out Freya and Laura for letting Dennis and I crash at your place. Now, before I get to my oh so delicious makeup haul, I do have one thing I have to get done first. Namely,…
Bite Size Reviews – Part 12
Now that my new stash is in place, it’s time to chat about five of the standout products from my April-May stash. Spoiler warning, this is going to be an ‘oops, all bangers’ edition of Bite Size Reviews. The only product that did me dirty from my last stash was the Kosas concealer (you can…

Emmie Reviews – Benefit BADGal Bounce Mascara
My history with Benefit Cosmetics and their mascara’s is pretty well known here. I was a long time hater of their first three launches. And I swore that they couldn’t make a mascara that I would ever like. Then they bought out the Fan Fest Mascara back in 2023. And we all know how that…
Emmie Swatches – Australis Eyeshadow Palette Collection
When it comes to drugstore makeup, few run the game harder than Australis Cosmetics. For over 25 years, they have been bringing out banger product after banger product.
