‘Be more international!’, you said. ‘Alright…

(You actually said no such thing, but I thought it sounded better if I pretended I was over here for you instead of for me. I come off as more generous that way, and generosity is generally perceived as a very positive trait. As opposed to lying and accusing. Which I would never do. Cept for just now when I lied about you accusing me.)... more

8 reasons you should try a colonic hydrotherapy, Part…

Yesterday I leaped up onto my soapbox about why I loved colonic irrigation, and what it actually does. Today? The benefits. The stuff that makes all the (initial) awkwardness and (occasional) pain entirely worth it, and the reason most who try it (and stick with it for a full course) become as devoted to water pipe parties as LADY GAGA is to making sure we all think she is entirely insane.... more

Updated: 8 reasons you should try colonic hydrotherapy,…

And I would know, because I am an unashamed fan of colonics, to the point where I am one of those morons who feels it’s appropriate dinner (or lunch, or breakfast) talk, no matter the company. It’s bordering on evangelical. But with good reason: I am a firm believer colonics are one of the finest things you can do for your body, your skin and your overall health. But don’t take my word for it. Take my many words for it.... more

Regarding our love affair with dry shampoo….

Because we all have one by now, obviously. And unlike that rispazulous love affair you have with TAYLOR LAUTNER, this one actually serves you, and more importantly, the appearance of your hair, which if you’re anything like me (very small, green suit, gold buckle, Irish accent) is often more important than you as a whole because no one’s happy when their hair is dirty and they don’t have time to wash and style it, are they?... more

Make an Effort Monday: The simple bright lip.

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, (’ssup Rihanna; hey Elton) you will know about my deep and ongoing love for bright lipstick. It’s the fastest way to look ‘done’ in my opinion, and cheats your face into freshness and out of hangovers/no sleep with the ease of a babydoll top making you look five months pregnant. Now, while the lip itself isn’t anything new, I do offer you a new way to do it that keeps it looking modern, as opposed to vintage and kind of Mad Men-y. ... more

Considering dying your hair darker for winter? Maybe…

I used to be big fan of going dark in winter, actually. Thought it made overwhelming sense. Especially since I loved to wear more makeup, and in bolder tones in the colder months, and to me, that was a marriage on par with WILL and JADA, because generally, when you’ve been light-haired and switch to dark hair, your face needs more makeup to keep it looking warm and alivey. But I’ve changed my tune. (It was Nutbush City Limits, but it is now The Macarena.)... more

Just Quietly…

Hasn’t it been a while since I’ve posted one of THESE! I think the last time I did there was a triceratops walking past my window! Ha ha ha! As if! He would’ve torn me from limb to limb, and besides, dinosaurs have been extinct for at least 100 years, you dingus!... more

The Sydney colourist who knows exactly what ‘Gisele’…

He’s not the only one, obviously, but goodness me DAMIEN RAYNER (formerly of Valonz and Renya Xydis) at Dario Cotroneo in Darlinghurst did a cracking job of my balyage last week. All I needed to utter was the word ‘Gisele’ and he was in a trance of hair colourist ecstasy. He gets it, ysee. He knows. ... more

Blue do you think you are, Chanel!

You’re a cheeky little trendsetter, that’s who! For the past couple of years I have made it my job to suss out what colour polish you have sent down the runway, because it’s generally a huge whopping great heads up on the next big polish colour. I’m not alone in this mission of course - Eminem is probably the best-known Seasonal Nail Polish Colour Trend expert - but you’re at it again, aren’t you, with those fancy eggshell blue nails…... more

A letter to Gwyneth Paltrow, from a friend.
