10 Things That 2016 Taught Me

Vampiric

By Matt | March 10, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley I feel like it’s no secret that I’m attracted to the darker style of things. A shaded corner, the colour black, notions of vampires, ripped clothing and gunmetal. All of these attract me like a piranha to a carcass and now that 90s grunge is back in fashion, it makes it…

February Empties

By Matt | March 1, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley February for me was a month of trying to clear some of the clutter from my bathroom cabinets. As a natural hoarder you can imagine the pain that this causes me, but it had to be done! As a result I’ve had a surprisingly big haul this month, which I wasn’t…

Classing It Up In Summer

By Matt | February 19, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley I am unashamedly a child of cold weather. I would like nothing more than for Brisbane to be swept up in an ice storm and to layer up the coats. But we all have hopes and dreams, and most of the time they won’t happen. That being said, it’s hard to…

Facial Oils 101

By Matt | February 9, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley Ahh that dreaded word, OIL. People love to eat it, not so much want it on their face. Triggered. People have been conditioned into believing that facial oils are a bad thing. There are all these products out there aimed at “removing oil,” “stripping oil,” “oil free.” When in actual fact…

Marina

By Matt | February 7, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley I was on a boat off the coast of Vietnam when the feeling hit me. A gigantic gut bubble that built in my stomach and expanded until I was drunk with queasiness. Stuff the buffet that was being laid out on the upper deck. Screw the stunning views and humid sunshine.…

Skincare Addiction Increased: Mokosh Skincare

By Matt | January 31, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley I am unashamedly a skincare addict. Every time I hear word of a new product launch, a new technology that’s being released or a new “miracle” product that has been discovered I actually get heart palpitations. I get more excited than at a buffet. Didn’t even think that was possible tbh.…

January Empties

By Matt | January 30, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley Look I get that there’s been a lot of skincare posts lately, but there’s more fashion content coming I promise! That being said, I’m doing a skincare series this year on my monthly skincare/bodycare/haircare empties. This previously was on my Youtube channel, but I’ve decided to refocus on my blog and…

V Day Alone Time

By Matt | January 24, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley As someone who has spent the past 24 Valentine’s Days alone, I am no stranger to the bleak depression and hatred that washes over you like a storm cloud when you have a Facebook feed full of “happy” couples. The majority of whom started dating the previous week. Whilst I’m a…

My Highlighter Collection

By Matt | January 18, 2017 |

Words by Matt Huxley Look. I’ve never been one to do things by half, and that principle certainly applies when buying stuff. I am a marketer’s dream, my ambition only being limited by my non-existent budget. A bargain bin excites me like nothing else (except perhaps a buffet) and when it comes to makeup, highlighters…
