My name is Annica and I'm a 22 year old living in sunny Brisbane.
During the day I run, own and manage a busy Dental Surgery with my partner, Alberto (the Dentist) whilst trying to juggle family, friends and my sanity. I work at least 10 hours a day, 6 days a week so my beauty regime needs to pack a pretty powerful punch to keep me looking fresh, professional and polished.
I'm a really big advocate for "looking haute on any budget". I believe there are many drug store brands which are absolutely phenomenal at enhancing beauty- some even exceed the premier brands! I believe you don't need to be a millionaire to look haute and every person should have the means to feel beautiful regardless of their financial circumstances.
I LOVE learning about new brands and finding out the nitty gritty details of how products work. I want to know how products react with the skin on a cellular level, the ingredients that are used to enhance beauty, why those ingredients are so amazing, and so on. The more information I have, the more excited I get!
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoy my little blog!
