Hello all you lovely bellas! My name is Julia and I am the brand new beauty editor here at bellabox.com.au!

Lauren has given me the lowdown on everything bellabox, and I feel like I’ve got some big shoes to fill. I can’t wait to get to know you all. I’m obsessed with all things beauty, celebrity and fashion so I have a feeling I’m going to like it here.

I started collecting makeup as a teenager, and I haven’t stopped. I’m always reading up on the latest beauty trends and finding out about new products to try. There’s nothing better than purchasing a brand new moisturiser, mascara or conditioner and testing it out on yourself. And I’ll definitely be sharing all my discoveries with you!

Here are three facts about me:

1. My favourite movie is Mean Girls. So many classic lines. She doesn't even go here!
2. I've met Justin Bieber and One Direction. What were they like? Celebrities are the same as you and me, but with a bigger entourage.
3. I have two dogs and two cats, and I think I'm one of those rare people who loves cats and dogs equally.

And three of my beauty necessities:

1. Fake tan

I always think I look better with a bit of a glow - it makes me feel like I'm red carpet ready. I know a lot of you will feel the same way! I’m scared of the sun, so fake tan is the only way to go for me. I find a mousse is the easiest type to apply. If you’re as obsessed with being bronze as I am, try Tuscan Tan Full Self Tan Mousse.

2. Groomed eyebrows

Like everyone at bellabox I’m obsessed with Cara Delevingne’s eyebrows! Of course my brows look nothing like hers, but I can always dream.  I keep things in shape with a pair of Tweezerman Slant Tweezers. They pick up the tiniest little hairs that other tweezers can miss. And to keep your eyebrows under control you absolutely need a brow gel like the Anastasia Beauty Brow Gel.

3. Blow dried hair

One of my all time favourite celebrity haircuts was Julianne Hough's bob. It always looked so effortless and chic. Buying a Parlux ceramic and ionic hair dryer changed my life. I can blow dry my hair in just a few minutes and look like I’ve just been to the hairdresser. Since I like to spend as much time sleeping as possible my Parlux helps keep my morning routine nice and quick.

I want to find out all about you! What are your beauty necessities? Let me know in the comments - Julia
