2023 Empties
Ahh the empties. Each year I manage to surprise myself with just how much I use up. It should be noted that this is not normal. You should not be using this much in a year. I have access to an inordinate amount of product, and I eschew standard usage practices. Do not do as…
Read MoreReview: Alpha H Golden Haze Face Oil
If you had told me at the beginning of 2022 that Alpha H would be launching a facial oil this year I would have laughed you off. It’s not that the idea of the Glycolic-focussed brand launching an oil is laughable – far from it – it’s moreso just rather out of left field for…
Read MoreTransforming My Skin with Body Oil
I am, rather ashamedly, not the most consistent at keeping up bodycare (I mean obviously outside of washing it duh). But I’m trying to be better! I’m trying to be a boy who has it all together in the bodycare department. Plus over the years I’ve definitely notice my body starting to get dryer as…
Read MoreReview: Kat Burki 5 Steps on the Go Set
Name a better way to return to the blog than by reviewing one of my all time favourite brands! All time. You heard that correctly. Kat Burki, for the uninitiated, is a brand founded (obviously) by Kat Burki. She has a history in nutrition and has thus built the brand around “skincare as nutrition”. The…

Oh my goodness. Not me making my return to this lil ‘ol thing! Seven years later and we are still inconsistent. But there’s a bit of a refresh in the air. We’ve had a bit of a spruce up. (Courtesy of the wonderful Nathaniel at Sacko). We are doing empties today, I managed to successfully…
Read MoreDaily Exfoliation: The Benefits
Words by Matt Huxley Exfoliation is one of those controversial topics in skincare. How often? How rough is too rough? Liquid or physical? Whilst I’m a huge fan of a good physical scrub every now and then, I find that for my skin a light daily exfoliant is best in order to keep it nice…
Read MoreAn Easy Morning Skincare Routine
Words by Matt Huxley I am under no illusions that most people are not quite as extra with their skincare as I am. I do genuinely see a need for 4-5 cleansers on the go at one time. I am informed however that the majority of people are not like this. Frankly it’s weird. So…
Read MoreFashion Bravery
Words by Matt Huxley The Met Gala is something that i look forward to each year. It’s a place where creativity and high fashion can be showcased on the highest people in the fashion, music and celebrity industries. In case you’re brand new, each year the Met Gala runs to a particular theme, corresponding to…
Read MoreReview: Rosehip Plus
Words by Matt Huxley Rosehip Plus is one of those ubiquitous brands in the bathroom closets of the world. Chances are you heard some new age genie sprouting the benefits of Rosehip oil and happened upon this reliable brand in Chemist Warehouse. Well. Rosehip Plus is so much more than that little brown bottle of oil…
Read MoreClassing It Up In Summer
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…
