The sell-out $11.50 item from Chemist Warehouse that's got everyone talking: 'Lost for words'
A Chemist Warehouse employee has revealed the sell-out $11.49 item she can't get enough of - after thousands of beauty fans raved about it.
Jess, a retail manager from Melbourne, tried the 'viral' NYX Lip Hydrating Gloss Serum to see if it lived up to the hype.
The beauty buy, available in a lineup of 10 shades, has been flying off the shelves for leaving lips deeply hydrated for up to 12 hours with a wash of colour.
The formula goes on like a glossy, vibrant colour - ranging from pinks to deep hues - or can be wiped away to reveal a natural-looking lip stain.
'I am shocked! Lost for words, literally... I get the hype now,' Jess said in her video after swiping the glossy lip stain over her lips.
'There really isn't many other products sold at Chemist Warehouse that works like this product does.
'Watch this become a new staple for me! I'm looking forward to wearing this tomorrow to see how long the stain lasts for.'
She was impressed with the formula after using the shade 'Drippin In Rose'.
'Oh my god, pure shock,' Jess said.
'I'm sure like everybody else, you have seen this on your TikTok non-stop and I have been hanging to grab one for myself and try it.
'What this does is it gives you a beautiful glossy lip but it also leaves a stain. You can absolutely leave the gloss on. They're designed to be worn both ways. The shine on this as a gloss is beautiful.'
At first, she found the shade quite 'bold', but once she removed it, she was pleasantly surprised by the soft pink shade left on her lips.
'I am not normally a bold lip kind of girl but if I was ever going to go a bold lip this is actually probably right up my alley,' she explained.
To achieve a lip stain effect, wear the gloss for up to 10 minutes before wiping it off.
Jess was stunned by the lip stain results after removing the gloss with tissue.
'Look I'm new to the lip stain game so this is probably why I am extra shocked but I don't know how I could possibly ever use another lip product,' she said.
'It's so good. I can't believe other brands haven't jumped on the lip stains.
'I'm going to try and get my hands on the Hydra Honey next.'
Her video has been viewed nearly 20,000 times across her social media platforms, with many saying they have been struggling to get their hands on the popular item.
'I really want to try the Hydra Honey and Drippin In Rose but out of stock all around Melbourne CBD area,' one revealed.
'I need this,' another said.
Many confirmed the gloss serums were 'gorgeous', 'brilliant' and the perfect affordable alternative to expensive brands.
Fans of the brand have given the product a near-perfect 4.6 stars out of 5.
'This is my favourite lip product, I love the stain and it lasts all day,' one said.
'Love everything about this product... otherwise the formula and colour is amazing,' another raved.
'Love this gloss which is also a tint. When the non-sticky gloss shine disappears it leaves a lovely subtle "stain" which lasts for hours. Great for the price and a lot better than other pricey brands which do not work as well as this,' one revealed.
'I have bought a few of these in different colours and the Bubblegum Burst is probably my favourite. A bit more natural looking for a nice stain. My recommendation would be to leave it on for at least five minutes (the longer the better) and then blot it off with a tissue rather than wiping it. It still only stays on for about half the day for me doing this but it's a pretty affordable lip stain,' another added.

Margot Robbie doesn't look like this anymore! Aussie actress reveals transformation in new movie role
She has become synonymous with her signature blonde locks over the years. But Margot Robbie looks very different in her upcoming romantic chick flick, A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, alongside Colin Farrell, 49. In the trailer, the Queensland-born star, 34, rocks strawberry blonde locks and a thick fringe, a swift departure from her Barbie roots. The film, which also stars Kevin Kline and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, is set to hit Aussie screens later this year on September 18. The movie tells the story of Sarah (Robbie) and David (Farrell), who meet at a mutual friend's wedding and are soon swept up in an out-of-worldly adventure to relive their past milestone moments together. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. In the trailer, the Queensland-born star, 34, rocks strawberry blonde locks and a thick fringe, a swift departure from her Barbie roots Margot has been very busy despite the actress sensationally announcing in 2023 that she would be stepping back from acting for a stint. As well as appearing in A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, the actress has been filming Emerald Fennel's Wuthering Heights adaptation alongside fellow Aussie Jacob Elordi. Margot is also producing the classic via her production company LuckyChap Entertainment, which she started with her husband Tom Ackerley. The Suicide Squad alum previously said she was planning on hitting the breaks following the success of her lead role in Barbie. Speaking to Deadline, she said she planned to work off-screen after years of building her acting portfolio. She added that she wanted to take a break from starring in movies as she thinks everyone is 'sick' of seeing her after her role in the Greta Gerwig's blockbuster. 'I also think everyone's probably sick of the sight of me for now. I should probably disappear from screens for a while,' she said. 'Honestly, if I did another movie too soon, people would say, "Her again? We just did a whole summer with her. We're over it."' Margot added: 'I don't know what I'll do next, but I hope it's a little while away.' The thespian noted that she's also been busy working behind the screen producing. Elsewhere in the interview, Margot laid bare her ambitions to direct a movie of her own, after years of producing critically acclaimed content. 'I really do want to direct,' she said. 'I've felt like I wanted to direct for about the last seven years. But I've always seen it as a privilege, not a right.'

Food critic sparks backlash after blasting cafe for selling out of sandwiches before he could review it for his 14,000 TikTok followers: 'This is the second time'
A TikTok food reviewer has faced a barrage of backlash after he unleashed a scathing tirade on a newly-opened cafe for running out of food before he could try it. Lifestyle blogger John-Ray Boukarim visited a newly-opened cafe located in Sydney 's Inner West. This was the second time Mr Boukarim went to the cafe and to his disappointment he was unable to review the food as the cafe had run out of bread for their sandwiches. Mr Boukarim explained he had planned his whole day around visiting the cafe to review the food for 'no gain other than boosting their business'. In an expletive-laden rant shared on TikTok with his 14,000 followers, Mr Boukarim slammed the owners for not knowing how to run a business. 'Listen, tell me how the f*** you open up a business,' he said. 'You think you would have your operation under control knowing what stock levels you would need in order to keep up with the demand, yet you still finish and run out of food an hour or two before you shut. 'This is the second time I've come here to do a food review and you've run out of food. In a rant shared to his TikTok account nillasjourney, Mr Boukarim slammed the owners of a newly-opened cafe for running out of bread before he could review their sandwiches 'F*** off, and stop wasting my time. Don't open up a business unless you know how to run it. Like seriously. These idiots. "Oh we sold out" How do you sell out bro!' Mr Boukarim added in the caption he and about ten other customers missed out on ordering food. He suggested the owners 'up' their bread quantities and if they do not sell out by the end of the day, they should donate the excess to charity. 'I guarantee ya selling an extra 15 sandwiches (and keeping customers happy) vs giving away 15 to 25 pieces of bread (if you didn't sell them) completely outweighs the stand alone bread cost,' Mr Boukarim wrote. Social media users disagreed with Mr Boukarim's rant, with many claiming he should have just visited the cafe earlier. 'If you want good fresh food, rule of thumb never show up 2 hours before closing. people need to wash/ clean / prep and go home to their families too just like you and I,' one wrote. 'That's just not how it works cuzzy. If they sold out that means they're doing something right. You have the right to be upset but maybe go earlier next time,' a second person commented. A third person chimed: 'You'd think you'd learn your lesson and go earlier the second time'. Others slammed the food reviewer for claiming the owner did not know how to run a business, claiming he was the one who lacked understanding of a cafe's logistics. 'I understand that frustration however, sometimes they can physically order as much as their establishments can store/make in their kitchen,' one commented. 'At my business because I'm a one woman show, once I'm completely out, I'm out. No stock left. Plus I have no storage to keep excess amount of food. I prefer my customers to eat fresh food daily,' a second person added. A third person wrote: 'They have only been open for four weeks and you think they should have it down pact exactly how much stock they need? 'Even a business that is 15 years old might have weeks they weren't expecting and can be sold out. 'If you've ever run a food business you would know to prevent wastage, you prepare for expected sales only.' A fourth chimed: 'You need to consider how much space they actually have to store meat or anything that needs to be refrigerated and space to hold dry stock. 'It's not as easy as everyone thinks it is. I'm sure they would of loved to make more money rather then sell out... sometimes it's better to sell out and not exhaust yourself out, and still be able to give your best the next day to customers.' Mr Boukarim replied to some of the comments claiming the video was a way for him to express himself and that 'for the most part' he was 'just taking the piss'.

The Bachelorette star Timm Hanly reveals his completely collapsed septum and the post-surgery practice that made him cry
Timm Hanly has undergone surgery after his septum completely collapsed. The Bachelorette star, 33, took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a picture showing the right nostril of his nose completely closed. While it is not yet known how his nostril collapsed, there are several ways it can occur, including a deviated septum weakening the valve, structurally weak nasal cartilages or direct trauma to the nose. Timm underwent a septoplasty - a surgery that straightens the nasal septum - to reconstruct the nostril. The reality star, who was a fan favourite on Angie Kent 's season of the dating show, posted a follow-up video to show his nose post-surgery. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. In the clip, Timm was seen squirting saline solution up his nose, a common practice after septoplasties to keep the nasal passages moist. 'POV: Day 1 septoplasty,' he captioned the post, which showed the shirtless star teary-eyed as he attempted the uncomfortable recovery measure. Timm made headlines last year after he was an unexpected hit in the US, charming his way into American hearts during a holiday in West Hollywood. In June 2024, the Aussie star went viral after doing a vox pop TikTok interview with American content creator Chris Stanley as he attended a gay pride parade. Having just 'stumbled across' the festival with his wife Briana De La Motte and their nine-month-old daughter Harper, Timm made quite the impression on viewers. 'We're just here from Australia. It's our second day here. Second day in America and we just stumbled across [the parade] and I'm just here for the vibes,' Timm said. 'We love it. We absolutely love it,' he added, before Chris asked: 'Do you think the gays can throw a good party?' Timm promptly responded: 'F**ken' oath. One hundred per cent. No one does it better really.' Chris then asked: 'How does it feel if a gay guy is hitting on you?' 'Oh, I love this. Let's say I'm walking down the street and a gay guy is, like, looking at me [checking me out]. That's as good as a girl looking at me,' Timm said. 'That counts. That's as good for my ego as a hot chick looking at me,' he added. Newfound fans from the US flocked to the comments of the video to swoon over the hunky father-of-one. 'More men like him please,' Chris wrote in the caption of the clip. Another person said: 'That's a healthy, secure and proud masculinity', while another said Timm had the 'biggest, fattest, longest d**k energy!' 'Australians are so cool and friendly,' a third added. Meanwhile, Timm and wife Briana welcomed their daughter Harper on August 31 2023, announcing the news to Instagram alongside footage of their bundle of joy. The couple dated on and off for six years before his stint on Angie Kent's season of The Bachelorette in 2019, where he placed runner-up to Carlin Sterritt. He went on to appear in Bachelor in Paradise in 2020, where he struck up a romance with Brittany Hockley in Fiji. The pair left the show as a couple after just a few episodes but broke up not long after returning to Australia. Timm and Briana went public with their newly rekindled romance soon after Bachelor in Paradise's finale aired on TV.
