Did I shop MECCA to get my hands on the most beautiful holiday packaging? Yes, yes I did. Christmas shopping is starting a little early this year even if the presents are just for me 🫶

The girls at Mecca Canberra are just so helpful and lovely, I had such a lovely Friday night checking out all the new drops in store.

Come shopping with me Sportsgirl South.Point Tuggeranong with their 30% off Halloween sale (admittedly I only got mine for 25% last weekend) for great linen pants and skirts for us short girls.

Polka dots are all over the place, do you love them or leave them?

Let’s do a spring try on and see what I loved and what I didn’t.

A little .beauty holiday magic ❄️ ✨ 🎄

Come unbox my latest Chanel beauty purchases from the gorgeous holiday collection. Beautiful packaging, a touch of luxury, and some stunning makeup to try on my 52 year-old skin. But as always, the real question is, are these products worth the splurge, especially for mature skin?

Stay tuned, because we’ll be putting them to the test.

Ten-hour wear test. FARA HOMIDI on mature skin! I wore a full face of Farah Homidi makeup for ten hours. Here’s how it held up on my fifty-two-year-old skin. With Farah Homidi Beauty now MECCA I wanted to see how these products really perform on mature skin.

From the initial application to the final check-in, I’m sharing my thoughts on the finish, texture and longevity. Would you try Farah Homidi makeup?

Holiday sparkle, but make it grown-up, Fara Homidi Cruiser Box Set in Velle Blonzer and Ch*****ne Baume at MECCA. Love this Blonzer glow and balmy highlight on my mature skin, so easy to use, minimal effort for maximum luxe look.

What matters to you with a gradual tan?

I bought and tested two gradual tans that purport to be daily moisturisers with a glow up, from and my criteria was:
✨ Fragrance
✨ Hydration
✨ Glow
✨ Colour pay off

I applied both over two nights for a deeper colour and the results might surprise you, especially as one product isn’t known for its tanning line of products!

The was the overall winner, only losing a couple of points to the which had a lovelier fragrance.

So your choice may hinge on one out of the four criteria.

Have you tried either of these tanning products? Or do you have a ride-or-die pharmacy tanning product that you can’t spend summer without?
