Because if you stop by to read Am I There Yet?, you most definitely also pop by Onya Magazine on occasion too, right? Well, I hope so, because online natural beauty store, Echolife, are offering Onya readers $5 off every order for the whole of 2011 (yes, it’s reusable!) when you enter the code ‘ onya ‘ at the checkout. How fantastic!
Read the article on Onya Magazine here for more details.
And don’t worry, my lips are sealed, I won’t tell them you heard it through me first. 😉
What are you up to this Australia Day? Is it as fabulous an option as Onya Aid, where 100% of proceeds go towards the QLD Flood Appeal, the champagne and good company will be abundant and auctions for your favourite items will be going off?
With a tiny $5 door fee (that goes directly to the Appeal remember) this is an affordable and fun way to celebrate Australia Day.
As Beauty Editor of Onya Magazine, I’ve already been busy organising some fantastic beauty hampers for Auction, and some singular items for the Lucky Dip. Trust me, you’ll want to dip your hand in that bucket!
If you’d like to RSVP (or have a little spy on who else will be there!) click here to see the official Facebook Event page.
Hoping to see you there,
Holly.

I’m currently composing a Summer Essentials guide for beauty products on Onya Magazine, here’s Part One: Body and Skin Care
—–
Summer, welcome! We’ve only been waiting, oh, 9 months? But you’re here, and that’s what counts. While most of us have had the beach bag and brolly on standby for weeks, don’t worry if the sunshine and its associated beauty woes have crept up on you. Onya has done the hard work for you, sourcing the best and most affordable Australian made and owned beauty products to create a comprehensive list of anything and everything you could need in your beauty bag this Summer. Here’s Part One, Body and Skin Care. BYO mini drink umbrella and see you poolside!

As I announced in my last post, I have been promoted from Beauty Intern to Beauty Editor at Onya Magazine. The previous and fabulous BE, Gaynor Alder has moved across to jet-set around Australia in style for the position of Travel Editor and I will be replacing her.
So, if you do the math that leaves a big gaping hole in the Beauty Department. Myself and Beauty Writer Beth Keamy are on the hunt for an amazing new intern to fill my shoes. Louboutins, mind you. Ha! I wish.
In a nutshell, we will require someone to:
– Be extremely organised and efficient.
– Have a passion for beauty products (which shouldn’t be too difficult…) especially those that are 100% Aussie owned and made, as that is what we will be working with.
– Liaise with PR and beauty brands on behalf of the team.
– Be well presented, with excellent written and spoken communication skills.
– Be a team player, Onya is one big happy family.
– Computer skills a definite plus.
– Creative. We need to keep these ideas coming!
– Be able to contribute articles to Onya Magazine. Wonderful for your portfolio!

Well, if this isn’t a peg on the Am I There Yet? ladder, I’m not sure what is!
As some of you may have seen on Twitter last week, I have just been appointed the role of Beauty Editor at Onya Magazine, where I was previously interning. Yipee! Dreams do come true. Yep, bold was definitely required.
One of the first posts that I wrote when I started this blog back in March was entitled, How do you know when you’re ‘there’?. I thought it would help explain the reason behind the name of my blog, and why it wasn’t something like LiPsTiCkLuVah4EvA69 (plus, it was already taken).
So I am more than thrilled to add this recent promotion to my “How do you know when you’re ‘there’?” list, which as I said in the post, is still a fluid and evolving goal. Satisfaction always is, right?
I’m really proud to be working with Onya Magazine, an online and soon to be bi-annual print magazine that focuses on all the best that Australia has to offer. I love being able to give 100% Australian made and owned brands a little bit of the limelight, as they can often be looked over for the international conglomerates. But seriously, give them a try, there’s some impressive stuff out there!
Of course I’ll still be organising my time to post regularly on Am I There Yet? but do pop over to Onya for a squiz every now and again.
I’ll also be advertising for an intern soon… so if that’s something you might be interested in start to get your application prepared!
Woo hoo! Pop the champas and raise your cupcakes because I am thrilled to bits to tell you all that I am the new Beauty Intern at Onya Magazine!
The Beauty Chief herself, the fabulous Gaynor Alder, today made the news official, announcing both myself and Beth Keamy to the Onya Beauty Team.
Onya Magazine, headed by Ed Sandi Sieger, is a fantastic online (soon to be print) magazine that showcases the best of what Australia has to offer; writers, businesses, products, places, politics, music, art, fashion, sport and more! A truly interesting read, it has something for everyone.
I am beyond excited to be chosen as part of the Onya team, and very proud to be ticking a box off on my Am I There Yet? list. To be able to complete an internship while at university in my gorgeous home-city Melbourne is a dream come true, because as anyone who is trying to make it in this world knows; Sydney is where it’s at, generally.
Thank you Sandi and Gaynor, I look forward to the exciting times ahead!
