News.com.au30-04-2025
I know what you're thinking – another celebrity beauty brand?! But there's something about this one that just feels … different.
Maybe it's because Lady Gaga is known for her artistry, creativity and her carefully curated makeup looks.
I'd seen clips all over social media from US creators talking about just how well Haus Labs, the brainchild of Lady Gaga, performed.
So when I heard the news that the award-winning brand had finally arrived on Australian soil, I could not wait to throw all the products on my face ASAP.
The Triclone Skin Tech Foundation is easily one of the most talked about Haus Labs products, winning a handful of beauty awards and voted the 'best foundation' multiple times.
It's also gone crazy viral over on TikTok, with the likes of influencers Mikayla Nogueira and Alix Earle being big fans.
Keep on reading to see which products from Lady Gaga's brand Haus Labs are worth your hard-earned cash.
OUR REVIEW OF LADY GAGA'S BEAUTY BRAND HAUS LABS
Haus Labs Triclone Skin Tech Foundation

The most anticipated arrival to come from Haus Labs is the viral foundation – and all of its 51 diverse shades.
The Korean-made formula promises medium yet buildable coverage. It's infused with over 20 skincare ingredients to really keep your skin feeling hydrated.
And it turns out it's expert-approved too – my makeup artist used the foundation on me on my wedding day last year and I've been dying to get my hands on it ever since!
One thing you notice right away with the foundation – and the rest of the Haus Labs range – is the gorgeous packaging. It's all packed in these beautiful glass vessels with holographic accents, and it feels very heavy and luxe.
As mentioned, Haus Labs offers 51 shades, sitting among six colour families with a mix of different undertones too. After following the easy-to-use shade finder on the Haus Labs website, I went with the shade 110 Light Neutral.
My skin type is pretty normal – it's not super oily or super dry and I get the occasional hormonal breakout.
Upon first use, I could not believe how easy this foundation was to apply. It has a silky serum-like texture that blends onto the skin like butter.
One thing I will note is that when I first swatched the shade 110 onto my skin, it looked super yellow. However, after blending it adjusted to my natural skin tone.
What's more, the Haus Labs foundation is formulated with patent-pending fermented arnica, which helps to control redness.
I found the formula super easy to blend, helping to blur imperfections and giving me plenty of coverage. My first day of wearing this foundation, even my husband noticed I was wearing something new on my face because my skin looked so good.
As I checked in on the foundation throughout the day, I noticed that I didn't have any creasing or any spots of product breaking up – something that I've definitely experienced before.
It wore beautifully for about 12 hours, and never started to feel heavy or cakey.
This is a weightless foundation that feels so comfortable – it's not too dewy or too matte, but rather offers a really natural, skin-like finish. This is my new holy grail!

When it comes to concealer, I need something that's hydrating, long-wearing and buildable. Thankfully, this skin-loving formula is made with BioTech caffeine and niacinamide to help brighten and depuff, hyaluronic acid complex to hydrate, fermented arnica to reduce redness and a BioFerment 7 Complex to overall protect the skin.
Similar to the foundation, the Triclone Skin Tech Concealer offers six diverse shade families with four undertones – there are 31 colours to choose from and I went with the shade 05.
My favourite thing about the Triclone Skin Tech Concealer is that it's packed with flexible pigments that make it really easy to work with. You can blend it with a brush, sponge or even just your finger if you're in a rush.
It's also non-comedogenic, scoring bonus points because it won't clog acne-prone skin. This makes it a perfect concealer choice to cover breakouts.
I love pairing this with the foundation, or I'll just use the concealer on its own if I'm going for a lighter makeup day.
This is sort of a magic concealer – it's full coverage while also giving a super natural finish.
It never felt dry or cakey, and dried down quick enough to where it didn't settle into any fine lines. I love how this wears throughout the day! Another great pick that still makes your skin look like skin.

Never in a million years did I think I could love a foundation brush as much as I love this one. And I'm low-key kind of amazed at how well it works.
Each and every brushstroke applies the foundation so seamlessly. This is a must-have if you find you're always applying your makeup in a rush. The angled brush is fluffy yet dense, with the synthetic bristles getting into every nook and cranny.
I even used the foundation brush to blend out my cream contour (which was perfect thanks to the angled shaped) and the concealer under my eyes – a step that I normally reserve for a smaller brush or damp beauty sponge.

Let me tell you, I'm a blush girl through and through with my collection of cream blushes slowly getting out of hand. I've tried almost every one out there but this one from Haus Labs has got to my one of my favourites.
There are loads of gorgeous colours to choose from but I went with the shade ' Glassy Rosette '. It's pigmented but not too pigmented (ahem, Rare Beauty), so it's super easy to work with, giving you an instant flush of colour.
The formula is serum-based, containing fermented arnica to reduce redness and goji berry complex to make the skin look plump and juicy.
When applied to the skin, it doesn't look matte but rather dewy, giving this glass-like finish that looks absolutely beautiful on.
I don't recommend swiping the stick directly onto your skin – and to be fair, I never do that with a cream blush. I like to swipe this on the back of my hand to warm the product up, then I'll go in with a brush to apply, or you can use your fingers too.
Think of it as a highlighter and blush in one, perfect for those full coverage makeup days, or when you're just looking for something light and flushed.

Like everything else from Haus Labs, the Bio-Radiant Glassy Highlighter Balm is a serum-based formula that's packed with loads of skincare ingredients.
And out of everything I got the chance to try, this is probably my least favourite Haus Labs product – which is saying something because I'm pretty much obsessed with everything else.
It's a pretty highlighter but it's not as pigmented as others in my collection.
I think that might also have to do with the shade I chose – I went with 'Glassy Opal' – as I've seen videos online of people swatching other colours and they look super intense and gorgeous. So take it with a grain of salt!
Formula wise, I love how it feels super creamy on the skin, working well with either a brush or the warmth from your fingers.
The packaging is super travel-friendly and it's easy to precisely apply highlighter to the high points of the face.
The highlighter balm is also multi-use so you can apply this on your cheeks, eyelids, lips and the rest of your body too. This is a good one to try if you love a subtle glow!

Bronzer is a must-have in my makeup routine as I love the warmth it gives. I was especially excited to try this one from Haus Labs as it's meant to be a cool hybrid formula.
From the eight shades on offer, I went with 'Bronzed Umber Light' and it's the perfect colour for my skin tone – not too warm and not too cool.
The formula is pigmented but still easy to work with – you don't have to be afraid of picking up too much product and looking all muddy.
As promised, the formula is sort of like a powder and cream hybrid – I love the feel of it, it's very velvety smooth especially when you swatch and apply it to the skin.
The Power Sculpt Velvet Bronzer blends like an absolute dream, feeling super smooth on the skin – it's also designed to help blur imperfections, so that's a big tick in my books!

How Irene left Home and Away after decades

Don't miss out on the headlines from TV. Followed categories will be added to My News. After decades as one of the most beloved stars on Australian TV, Home and Away veteran Lynne McGranger bid farewell to Summer Bay and her legendary character Irene Roberts. Over the past 33 years, Irene has become part of the fabric of the fictional seaside community, having taken in multiple foster children and offering a safe haven to those in need. She has been at the centre of many of Home and Away's biggest storylines, including her battle with alcoholism, a breast cancer diagnosis, the shock arrival of a long-lost son, a ferry boat sinking, a bomb explosion, a plane crash, and a stint in prison for a murder she did not commit. Irene has officially left Summer Bay. Picture: Seven It was an emotional episode that saw Irene leave Summer Bay 'with a bang', getting the send off she deserves. It began with a farewell party so everyone had one last chance to say goodbye before she embarked on her new life exploring the world. Party music was playing, love and laughter was in the air, but it wasn't quite perfect. The man who means the most to Irene was nowhere to be seen. Ever since she first announced that she was leaving to travel the world, Irene faced resistance from John Palmer (Shane Withington), who has in recent episodes been concerned about her Alzheimer's progressing, but held too much pride to admit he'll miss her. Irene and John bid farewell to each other during an emotional goodbye. Picture: Seven As Summer Bay's residents made their speeches, John finally makes a welcomed appearance, and the pair share a bittersweet goodbye that sees them both with tears in their eyes. 'I want you to meet me at the Eiffel Tower,' Irene says, revealing that she's bought him a ticket to join her in Paris. 'So you see, it's not goodbye, it's au revoir,' she laughs. 'I will be there,' insists John. 'In hell or high water, I will be there!' Irene has officially left Summer Bay. Picture: Seven As she's driven away from the Bay, Irene takes one last look out the window at the community she called a home for more than three decades and smiles, as a letter she left behind is read out in her voice. 'Most importantly, take care of each other. At the end of the day, that's what matters. Friends and family,' she says. 'No regrets?' Irene is asked, to which she grins and replies with her signature pet name, 'None, love.' 'Life's too short,' she finishes.

'After almost 33 years in my dream role and working every day with people who I love, respect and whom I now consider family, it's bittersweet to be closing the chapter on what has been the best and longest gig of my life.' She continued: 'I am forever grateful to the best production crew in the world and to our genius writers – whose doors are always open – for everything they have done for Irene over the past 33-odd years, and I am so proud of the storyline which will see Irene out of the Bay. Above all, a massive, heartfelt thank you to the fans for your continued love and support.' Originally published as How Irene left Home and Away after decades

Calvin Harris has shot down rumours of a feud with Miley Cyrus

Calvin Harris has shot down rumours of a feud with Miley Cyrus. Fans of the Flowers hitmaker were left confused after Calvin shared a new snippet of his previously teased song Ocean, this time with the vocals of Jessie Reyez, the co-writer of the tune. The TikTok clip raised alarm bells, as Calvin previously shared a preview of the track with Miley's voice. One Miley stan commented: 'What happened to the one with Miley?????' Responding, Calvin insisted: 'Tell her. I do not know." When another fan asked if the Miley version will ever see the light of day, he replied: 'I'm afraid not.' The 41-year-old superstar DJ claims it was a mishap on his end that led to Miley no longer appearing on the track. Asked who was to blame, he said: "Nah it was my bad . . . crossed wires.' Dispelling speculation the pair had fallen out, he added: 'I love Miley.' Earlier this year, Calvin returned with his first song since 2018 to feature only his own vocals, Smoke The Pain Away, and his first single since his 2024 collaboration with Ellie Goulding, Free. As for Miley, the pop star is planning 'something really special' for Hannah Montana's 20th anniversary. The 32-year-old star shot to fame in the Disney show – which ran for four seasons from 2006 to 2011 – and she revealed she would love to pay tribute to the series with a special celebration next year. She told SiriusXM's TikTok Radio: 'I want to design something really, really special for it because it really was the beginning of all of this that now sits here today. Without Hannah, there really wouldn't be this kind of… this me.' The show starred Cyrus as Miley Stewart, a teenage girl living a double life as famous pop singer Hannah Montana and Miley is excited to celebrate the character. She said: 'It's so crazy to think, too, that I started as a character that I thought was going to be impossible to shed. And now that's something that when I walk into a space, it's looked at as this sense of nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood, but I've now been as kind of integrated into everyone's life as the character itself. So that's exciting to get to celebrate that.'

Sydney vs Melbourne: Which Australian art city deserves your vote?

And well they might, because you're in a prime harbourside playground; emerald parkland on one side, glittering water on the other - a place for picnics and party boats. Basically, standard Sydney - dazzling before you even reach the art. When you do, it's formidable; about 36,000 works including one of Australia's broadest Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander collections, historic European greats from Rubens to Rodin, Asian treasures - and the biggest ticket in Australian art: the annual Archibald Prize. Fans flock to see it, because even Picasso (and AGNSW has 15) can't please a crowd like portraits of Hugo Weaving cuddling a cat or Adam Goodes in his Swannies kit.
