News & OpinionsBy JadeNovember 26, 2019Leave a comment

Lush Twitter Controversy: Is the store as ethical as it wants shoppers to believe?

Beauty, News & OpinionsBy Jess FlahertyNovember 26, 2019Leave a comment

A few days ago, a Twitter thread went viral for exposing some harsh truths about beloved, cruelty free super-brand, Lush.   I’ve adored Lush for years so when I saw the thread pop up, I immediately thought it couldn’t be true and that it was just the poster’s expose on their own, singular experience. Perhaps they had

Millennial Dating Terminology Explained

News & OpinionsBy Sasha ThompsonNovember 24, 2019Leave a comment

Like it or not, we’re the generation of Love Island, Tinder, DMs and the everchanging trends that accompany them. Dating’s never been more complicated, not least because of the lexicon.

News & OpinionsBy RomanaNovember 21, 2019Leave a comment

It’s that time of year again – it’s time to watch a group of celebrities eat kangaroo genitals, clean the dunny and sit around a campfire moaning about the food they’re eating. Yes, I’m A Celebrity – Get Me Outta Here is back!   Now, I am somebody who literally cannot wait for it return to

Is it acceptable to send rules to your wedding guests?

News & OpinionsBy ClaireNovember 14, 2019Leave a comment

Weddings are notorious for sending many sane and balanced women into complete meltdown, and understandably so. Every Bride wants her dream day to go perfectly.
