The Quicky

When July 1 comes around, many Australians get a little excited for a boost in their bank accounts in the form of a tax return. 

But this year is a little different for many of us. This year, a crucial tax factor is missing, one that 10 million of us have been enjoying since 2019. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we find out who this tax change will impact and other ways in which you might end up having to negotiate a payment plan with the ATO this financial year.

Everywhere you turn right now, it's almost certain that you will see the colour pink. It's in our stores, on our social media pages and our TV's,  all in celebration for a doll, well actually a movie about a doll, that for years we were told was doing young women a disservice. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the powerhouse that is the marketing campaign of the Barbie movie. How they took a toy that had seen a decline in sales and relaunched it to become a best seller. And whether confronting your products faults can go anyway to absolving them of their past mistakes.

There's a new wave on 'skinfluencers' hitting our social media pages of late and one of those posting is 11 year old Pixie Curtis. 

In videos and photos posted to her Instagram, the tween is often seen boasting about her luxury items, from haircare, fashion and even cars. She's also posted shopping hauls showcasing a number of beauty products and skin care that has some people concerned she may actually be damaging her skin. 

With the rise and influence of social media, younger and younger Aussies are getting into skincare routines - but how do we know what's safe?

In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to our resident beauty expert Leigh Campbell about exactly what damage these tween skinfluencers may be doing to their delicate skin.
