    I went to Meccaland in Melbourne last year and it was one of the best days of my life. It was SO fun!

    Omg I totally understand your nostalgic obsession with Clinique!!!! Clinique was my first ever skincare purchase – I was 14, travelling with my family and waiting to board a flight back home. Every time I purchase an item I’m transported back to simpler times, it’s crazy

    How much were the tickets? I wanted to go but I couldn’t convince my boyfriend to come with me.

    Meccaland looks so fun. You got some really good stuff. Thks for taking us along ladies. 😊👍

    Looks so fun!!! Fab PR bag—I'd love to get all those goodies!

    It was incredible! The work that went into the planning must have been immense. Lovely to finally meet you two!

  11. @claudial4141

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Hailey you are not alone in your love of Clinique. As someone who is bugged by many fragrances in face products I love that they are scent free!

    Are you guys planning a follow up with try on/mini reviews of the products?

  12. @aislinn9969

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    My friend had a superstar pass (which was the middle priced ticket) and her goody bag came with Mecca face wipes, a sheet mask, a lip balm and a full size naked heat palette

  13. @Sarah-ny8lw

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    The atmosphere seems more exciting than Beautycon here in the states. Except, at Beautycon if you buy the more expensive ticket you get a goody bag and it actually has such great things!

    Oh that looks like you had a fabulous time! Thanks for sharing it with us! Love your Channel(s) 😉

    I was sooo keen for the by terry stand but by the time i got ther (2nd session on saturday) it was broken and i was so gutted! what a waste :'( and now ill probably never get the opportunity to get one… but other than that i got a ton of stuff (i.e. instanly purchase dthe whisper in the library scent from replica, mecca blush and a ysl lippie lol)

  16. @amyking4am

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    I went on the Sunday and had a fun pass which only got you a premium beauty loop box (which is still amazing) and it had a mini YSL lipstick, a sample face hero oil, a full-size face towel, a full-size strawberry lanolips lip balm and a mini face hero moisturiser. Was a good time, definitly going back next year and getting the better pass with more goodies! x

    Meccaland was unbelievably fun! Even better than I expected. I had a Superstar ticket (that’s the middle tier: $106) and I went to the first session. The Superstar goodie bag included a Nars (basic browns) eyeshadow palette, Patchology face mask, makeup wipes and Mecca lip gloss + the Beauty Loop box which was much better than usual. The highlight actually was meeting you guys near the Ciaté stall (Shock of my life when I turned around and saw Kat’s face!). I loved the Popstar Park with the see-saw, giant lipsticks and Ferris wheel…. It felt like a mini theme park! I received over 50 samples but not on the same level as your PR samples. Shout out to Ren who gave me 5 deluxe samples for recycling old products. I’ve been really impressed by the Go-To hero face oil (considering it’s so much more affordable than my Drunk Elephant face oil). I bought the new Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue Stick which won’t be available until June… Love it! My only regret is I didn’t purchase the Nu-Face fix device which worked wonders on my under eye area! Mecca doesn’t seem to have it for sale online yet. Interestingly some Meccaland staff alluded that Meccaland might be in Brisbane next year – honestly I’d travel anywhere for it! xox

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    This looks like so much fun. I'm in the US and pretty rural, too so we don't really have anything like this where I am. Really nice bags, too.

  22. @karolynanderson2033

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    That Hourglass x Meccaland blush is GORGEOUS, if it was available stateside I’d buy it in a second!

  23. @cactojuice

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Did y'all meet Matilda?

  24. @MyiaB2015

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Lol I remember Hailey saying she was going to buy the Jessica Rabbit collection, good on you! Never heard of Meccaland before this so thank you!

  25. @bluegyrl75

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    I remember you guys talking about that stila collection when it launched… the impression was not favorable

  26. @manuelag9838

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Meccaland seems so fun! I am in Canada and we don't have anything like this (as far as I know). Closest I can think of is IMATs but that's a bit more pro-MUA I think? Loved seeing your stories and finding out what's in the goodie bags! <3

  27. @nicholashanley9526

    Love Beaty news❤️

  28. @nicholashanley9526

    That face mask by dermatological smells awful but it’s amazing!

    You girls picked all the exact same stuff!!!

  32. @jenniferogormanarafa8920

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Listen I’m 49 and I’ve been using Clinique since I was 14. I’ve never used anything other than the three step system as a cleansing regime. I am always told I look much younger and that my skin is good! It’s old school yes but man it’s so good…..I do as an added product use the moisture surge! So there! Hahahaha

  33. @martinalast8317

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Would be great to hear your thoughts on stuff you got after you try them!

  34. @samyoung6176

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Being from Perth I wasnt able to go to meccaland but I'm going to the "afterparty" here

  35. @nancymoon-rush2888

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    Looks like you gals had tons of fun!

  36. @gremlynb9162

    Now I have yet another reason to visit Australia! This looks like such a fun event!

  37. @hannaebrown

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    My bestie and I wanted to get pro passes as she is a MUA for a living. We wanted to go for the master classes but the pre sale tickets were such a excuse me language but it was a cluster fuck and total mess. So we didn't go we had to travel to go and it wasn't worth it to not be able to really spend time there when the time with the fun passes was so little. Such a bummer we were so looking forward to going.

  38. @MakeupWithSmidge

    February 12, 2024 at 8:32 am

    I feel like meccaland is only worth it if you get Media pass and PR.
    Idk if it’s because I’m ridiculously broke, ?(😂) or because I just don’t se the point in paying that much money to have early access to products
