What Hangover? Your Tea To The Rescue.

There is nothing worse in life than a hangover on a Sunday Morning and with the weekend impending and Spring Carnival season in full swing, we may have found the cure!! Yes, that's right a hangover cure. Now when we say a hangover cure, it's more of a preventative measure as such. Trending tea brand Your Tea has created a Hangover Tea that is full of the hydrating goodness one is meant to have when they are craving a bucket of hot chips from the local. Ingredients such as Chamomile, Dandelion and Oolong Tea come together to create a blend that is both tasty and beneficial. Now if you were to read the reviews online you would be able to read that this tea might actually work however, one of the girls in the Eyes of Solotica office uses this tea, not for the benefits associated with the hangover factor but because she finds that it helps with her headaches. You know what they say when it comes to hangovers... prevention is better than a cure so less is mor

Embracing Beauty By All Means, Halloween Makeup Inspiration On Point.

When it comes to beauty, us as women in this society are finally standing together to embrace one another's unique characteristics that make us individually beautiful. We are moving away from the stereotypical ideal of perfection and placing women on well-deserved pedestals for showcasing their beauty after years of being told, it was a flaw. And let's be realistic, us here at Eyes of Solotica couldn't be happier. Take for instance the infamous beauty that is Winnie Harlow . She was infamously bullied growing up for her depigmented skin condition that now sees her gracing the runways for some of the most idolised designers in the universe. A post shared by ♔Winnie Harlow♔ (@winnieharlow) on Sep 26, 2017 at 5:16am PDT Skip forward to today where there are now more women such as Winnie who are taking the leap of faith to place themselves in front of the social prying eyes and stand tall without any second thoughts to the judgment they may endure.

Makeup Game Changers. Who You Should be Following

We get it ladies, with all of the beauty products in the world it can be hard knowing which makeup accounts you should be following, thats where the Eyes of Solotica girls have come to save the day. We asked around the office and found the top social accounts that you SHOULD be following this month; 1. makeupbymichaelfinch A post shared by MICHAEL FINCH (@makeupbymichaelfinch) on Apr 14, 2017 at 7:06pm PDT  2. fro.naz  A post shared by FRO.NAZ (@fro.naz) on Apr 14, 2017 at 10:02am PDT 3. kindahawari  A post shared by Khinda Hawari 💋 (@khindahawari) on Apr 23, 2017 at 10:28am PDT 4. lupe_mua  A post shared by L U P E _ M U A 💄 (@lupe_mua) on Mar 10, 2017 at 3:21pm PST For more beauty and makeup news don't forget to head to www.eyesofsolotica.com

Halloween Inspiration: Lili Reinhart

With Halloween just around the corner we are sending ourselves a little cray cray trying to find some inspiration on makeup techniques that do not require MVP Makeup Artistry skills. In this pursuit we have actually stumbled across Lili Reinhart who is actually an actress by nature but also as it appears, a crazy talented special effects makeup genius. A post shared by Lili Reinhart (@lilireinhart) on May 30, 2016 at 5:47pm PDT The naturally beautiful actress has taken to Instagram to showcase her skills, almost looking completely unrecognisable from the blonde bombshell we have to come to love. It's no surprise this babe is mega talented when it comes to anything considering her role on Riverdale as received so much praise. Now we did say that we wanted a Halloween makeup look that didn't require the brush skills of Picasso however, can we just take a minute to appreciate this talent?

Show Me the Money. The Man Who Ran With $12 Million

Image
The girl power in the Eyes of Solotica office is currently gripped by a case of "what would you do?" thanks to this bizarre case in Canada at the moment. Canadian woman Denise Robertson, had a lifetime wish of hers granted last month. Like most of us who dream of winning the lotto, the prospect of it ever actually happening is grim however you buy the ticket in hopes that one day, you will strike gold. Well Denise and her partner Maurice Thibeault certainly struck gold, $12 million dollars of it to be exact. The couple who have been living together for 2 years, would regularly text each other to confirm their lotto picks and the prospect that should they ever win, splitting the takings 50/50. Sounds pretty ideal when you're in love doesn't it? Well this is where it all falls apart. Maurice in fact knew that they had won the lotto so what he decided to do was, he washed 15 loads of washing int he days before packing all of his items, his passports and leaving D

Branding to a Tee. The Best Slogan T-Shirts

The biggest voice we have is our own. We as individuals are not scared to voice our opinions on matters of the heart, social sectors, political standpoints and just our general ideals for the perfect world. Yes, the perfect world. That seemingly unattainable notion we have that just our positive vibes alone can change the world, or ideally, the people in it. With the current Marriage equality debate currently trending here in Australia, with feminism on the rise worldwide and with the people equals power movement generally sweeping all sectors all of the time, it seems that fashion's biggest voice is the good ol "slogan tee". So we here at Eyes of Solotica have gathered an array of our favourite fashion houses statement tees to share with you because we believe, you can never be too much- thanks Luther Vandross. 1.Dior "We Should All Be Feminists"  2. Prabal Gurung "The Future is Female" 3. Moschino "I Didn't K

Gucci Joins the Fur-Free Retail Army

For decades now Fashion has inspired and divided both the creative and moral minds of individuals. Deep in the heart of fashion lays a beauty that is both somewhat mythical and unattainable. Talented individuals conceptualise how to piece together fibres and textures to create pieces of pure art. However, in the recent years, the consciousness of people has pushed some of the biggest fashion houses in the world to dissect their concepts and rationalise both the sustainability of fashion and the ethos behind animal rights and conservation. The latest heavy-hitting fashion house to join the ranks of those to ban the use of Fur is none other than the luxury label that started the current fur loafer trend, Gucci . A post shared by Gucci (@gucci) on Sep 24, 2017 at 8:24am PDT Yes, Gucci has just announced that as of next year they will go fur free and auction off their remaining pieces featuring fur and donate the money raised to animal rights charities such as Humane S

Chaos Makeup Changes the Makeup Game, Literally!!

Growing up did you ever have a mood ring, a ring that could read your emotions and change colour based on your " feelings "? Well, Chaos Makeup has just released details on their Instagram of their latest and greatest product; Mood Cream . A post shared by ⚡ Chaos Makeup ⚡ (@chaosmakeup) on Jun 1, 2017 at 4:19pm PDT A water-activated, colour- changing Mood Cream was the epitome of hype with viewers (including us) being able to see the cream change from purple to teal right before our eyes.

There's Something Quite Off About Nostril Extensions.

To say that we are a little confused here in the Eyes of Solotica office is a little more than an underestimate. We basically just threw ourselves and our smartphones out the window when we saw, Nostril extensions. Yes. you read that right, nostril extensions. This absurd new experimentation has come from one Instagram user GretChen Chen who decided to see what her fake eyelashes looked like turned upside down and places on the outers of her nostrils. Now call us naive but, haven't women been trying to eradicate the extra hair on our bodies for years, even shifting our focus to making our men wax their's off too? Why would this suddenly become a thing now? A post shared by GretChen Chen (@gret_chen_chen) on Oct 4, 2017 at 12:39pm PDT It seems that in the pursuit to create the next big trend, the latest beauty hack or even the latest definition of beauty, we are moving further away from the fundamentals of beauty and playing in the depths of obscene.

Maybe She's Born With It, Maybe it's GIGI X MAYBELLINE

We thought our Dreamgirl Gigi Hadid couldn't get Dreamier but, we were wrong. The total Beach Babe is taking her empire to the next level and releasing her very own makeup line and the best news, it will be readily available everywhere. Us babes in the Eyes of Solotica office were twisting harder then Chubby Checker today when we found out that Maybelline will be releasing the hotly anticipated   Gigi x Maybelline range. After "one year in the making" Gigi released a cryptic image on her Instagram account which has also potentially indicated the colour palette to come. The image shows Gigi in front of an array of beauty products in a range of neutrals, nudes and bold "pop" colours. A post shared by Gigi Hadid (@gigihadid) on Oct 8, 2017 at 9:17am PDT As the face of Maybelline since 2015, we are expecting big things to come from this collection which is due for launch on October 21st.

The Luxury Kids of Instagram or The Loathsome Kids of Instagram?

There's one Instagram account that is on everyones lips at the minute but it's not the type of hype they should be happy about but then again, these kids are the type who love the hype. The Luxury Kids has divided the office of Eyes of Solotica . It's like a polaroid gallery of reality tv. You find yourself almost an hour deep in scrolling through their obnoxiously lavish lifestyles on a regular basis and just when you thought you have seen it all, you see it all again. This is the type of Instaram account that will either make you cringe with how arrogantly they publicise their families fortunes or, it will make you want to orphan yourself and start life again under the guidance of their parents. For you see, nothing is off limits to these kids. They have it all but we imagine what they don't have is the type of friends who actually have your back. After an initial stalk, it became apparemt that this type of wealth attracts like-minded money and just like birds

Living a Fashionably Sustainable Life; Companies For The Cause

We as individuals now have a bigger conscious responsibility on our shoulders when it comes to the preservation and sustainability of our global oasis. We are now more aware than ever about renewable and reusable materials and energy and more so, this is highlighted in our ever-growing consumerism of fashion and fashion accessories. The girls in the Eyes of Solotica office are on a mission to minimise their footprint as they embark on expeditions of research to find the latest and greatest in conscious fashion and beauty brands. Here are the girls top 5 picks... 1. Roma Boots. These gumboots are aiming to minimise the rate of children without access to footwear one pair at a time. For every pair of boots that are bought, Roma donate a new pair to street children of impoverished areas. Portions of the companies profit is also donated to the same cause.
