All Bases Covered

EPISODE 71 ./

Welcome back to another MINI Episode, this week we’re talking all things, Glossier!

Glossier, Inc. was founded on the belief that beauty isn’t built in a boardroom—it happens when you’re a part of the process. CEO Emily Weiss launched this iconic brand in 2014 and ever since, the packaging and effortless chic vibes have become a staple in almost every celeb and influencers collections.

With an ethos of skin first, makeup second, smile always, it’s clear that this brand champions natural beauty, with pops of fun, and an array of skin essentials and glossi-wear to keep you kitted out from top-to-toe in the brand.

You can check out how to ship Glossier to Australia through the ‘Glossier In Australia’ highlight on @morgansskinjournal’s IG page.

EPISODE 70. / 

Hello, happy Monday and welcome back to another week of Lisa and Alex chatting about beauty! 

We’re kicking things off business-style this week with some economic beauty news detailing how this pandemic has affected our beauty buying. Also, we discuss how Australian brand Frank Body has become part of the Morphe family (yes, you read that correctly) and how Mecca is now retailing internationally through Tmall. 

Thought that matte foundations were a thing of the past? Well, think again as there are TWO new matte foundations hitting the market in weeks to come. 

This week we’re also covering our beauty faves, a mini beauty breakdown on what ‘ashy’ skin is, after our mini ep ‘For de bois’ on Wednesday, our non beauty faves and, of course, snacks.

EPISODE 68. /

EVERYONE BIG NEWS! Loz has joined us for this week’s episode and she’s brought the bougie we’ve all been missing by introducing us to a $280 product of the week - oh how we’ve missed her! 

We start this week by kicking off complaining about how all of Loz’s previous predictions have come true before kicking into some new beauty that’s vibing some seriously beautiful autumn tones. Our product trial this week has triggered Lisa’s bloodhound nose and catapulted us back in time to when she was plagued with chickenpox as a child … and a teen… and as an adult. 

We have LOTS of non-beauty faves to get through which will be a treat for everyone in Melbourne Iso, and maybe not so much for everyone else - sorry! PLUS we’ve also revived the LQOW (listener question of the week) segment this week with a question about how to treat acneic oily skin that has damaged its skin barrier. 

Products Mentioned: 

• Sarah Chapman Skinesis Hydration Serum: https://shopstyle.it/l/blBRI 
• Aurelia Probiotic Glow Serum: https://shopstyle.it/l/blBTC 
• Kosas Natural Deodorant w AHAs: https://shopstyle.it/l/blBTy 
• Niod Flavanone Mud Mask: https://shopstyle.it/l/blBRP 
• 111 Skin crystallising energy mask: https://bit.ly/2FhkHpp

In this week's mini episode we give you an overview of one of our favourite brands of all time - Hourglass. We talk brand history, hero products, and the one product we'd put in the bin. We also discover that Alex has never played Mario Party, so let that sit for a minute. Let us know on Instagram @allbasescovered.pod which products you'd f***, marry and kill.

EPISODE 64. / 

Lisa and Alex may have reached the point of insanity where there’s no return this week. Once you get through our incoherent shopping ramblings for the first 5 minutes, we have lots of news to get through. The new beauty releases keep on rolling in and there's lots that we cover off in news, as well as a sprinkling of beauty influencer drama, because no ep would be complete without a little bit of goss. 

We are very excited this week to share with you a product trial that we’ve been secretly checking out over the last month-or-so. It’s a Retinol and Ferulic Acid Dream Team, formulated by Melbourne-born brand Liberty Belle Skincare. We’ll touch on what Retinol and Ferulic acid contribute to your skincare routine, as well as what we thought about the two different strengths of this product! 

ALSO it seems like a topical time to discuss what you can do to avoid Maskne - you know, pimples caused by the face masks we are legally required to wear when leaving the house? We’ll share with you some practical tips and reminders for your skincare routines now that masks exist, as well as important makeup FYI’s for everyone who’s about to learn everything that us Melburnians have gone through.

Episode 62 ./

Heyo friendos! We’re back to remote recording so please do your very best enjoy our sub-par sound quality. 

This week in beauty news, Dramageddon continues as Morphe made an announcement that they’re going to cease selling Jeffree Star cosmetics products from their retail stores. We also discuss that Fenty Skincare is on it’s way and Patrick Starr’s beauty line has launched but is it truly a one size fits all release decision? 

We’re also helping answer one of our listener questions this week to teach you how to colour match your foundation! If you’re Lisa, the answer is just go into store and ask someone to do it for you … but seeing as we’re in the middle of a pandemic, we’ll cover off some other helpful hints too.
