Innholdsfortegnelse for Winter 2018 i Girlfriend Australia

Confident, successful queens don’t sit around waiting for their dreams to fall into their laps. We’re so sorry to tell you hunnis, but the rule book that has been drummed into your brains about how to act around a crush is dead. So we’re calling for a huge change. Dua Lipa’s banger ‘New Rules’ might be filled with great advice to steer clear of a f***boi, but we’re afraid even she gets it wrong occasionally. These are the new rules of dating. Learn them by heart. 1 Pick up the phone “They took three hours to reply, so you have to wait a whole day.” #NOPE. This rule couldn’t be more damaging. You wouldn’t act this way when talking to them IRL. It just wouldn’t work. The best thing about…

Like a fingerprint, no two vaginas are the same. I discovered this one night on school camp in Year 12 when my girlfriends and I decided to show each other our vaginas. Not all friendship groups are that close, but I’m glad we were because let me tell you: it was huge revelation and it was also damn liberating! Seeing a range of vaginas in the umm… flesh (soz) was more insightful than any sex ed lesson I’d ever received. Just like every other part of the female body, there’s pressure for a vagina to look a certain way. The porn industry has a lot to answer for, and the beauty standards of a vagina is one of them. In most pornographic images, those parts are photoshopped and many female…

If you haven’t heard of Timothée before, you’re about to fall head over heels in love. This beautiful boy starred in two of the biggest awards season movies, Lady Bird and Call Me By Your Name. He was even nominated for best actor at the Academy Awards and is the youngest male ever to do so. He’s 22, totally adorable, his name is pure poetry (it’s pronounced Timo-tay Shala-may), he’s sweet AF, and we don’t have to tell you that curls get the girls. How does it feel for you to be famous all of a sudden? I had no idea what it’s like to be famous. That was never really my intention anyway. I liked walking through the streets of New York and not being recognised. It’s a little…

WATCHED every live stream of Harry’s concerts (except the ones who had no streams... you know who you are...). SCREAMED our lungs out, danced our asses off and waved rainbow flags at his Sydney and Brisbane shows. SAW Love, Simon at the movies three times and got to interview Nick Robinson and Katherine Langford. SENT each other screenshots of every single adorable comment Sam Smith and Brandon Flynn leave on each other’s Instagram posts. SPENT so many hours discussing LT1 it would add up to days. DISCOVERED Darling Brando – the best boyband we’ve seen since 5SOS and we promise you’re going to be just as obsessed as we are. LISTENED to 5SOS’s Youngblood so many times we can tell the boys apart by their breathing patterns. DRESSED our Harry…

You don’t want to jeopardise your friendship, so it’s wise to look at the reasons that may be causing her behaviour. It feasts on our insecurities and waits to be invited into our thoughts when we’re feeling threatened. I It sucks all the fun out of the room and makes you feel bad about yourself. We’re not talking about Dementors, we’re talking about something far worse: jealousy. Jealousy is that nasty voice in your head that tells you the girl checking out your boyfriend is ugly. It’s a feeling of anger or bitterness towards someone when you feel they are taking something you have. For example, let’s say a girl in your year is wearing the same dress as you to formal; immediately you feel resentment towards her, then you…

Curious to know what your future has in store for you? The answer lies in the palm of your hands! This ancient practice has been used for thousands of years to give people an insight into their personality and their future. Check out your dominant hand (the one you write with) and see what your palm says about you! The heart line Where though? The heart line crosses the top of the hand from under the pinkie finger to the middle or index finger. Say what? The heart line tells you what your lurve life holds for you and gives an insight into your feelz. What does it tell us? Long, straight line: You’re rational, considerate and follow your head over your heart. You’re ALWAYS thinking of others. Short, straight…

1 My Dior Forever Undercover 24-hour full coverage foundation is my holy grail. I have oily skin and it lasts all day long while looking natural on the skin. 2 My Tarte Shape Tape concealer, this has been a favourite of mine for a while now, I can’t find another concealer I love as much as this one! I also have a lighter and a darker shade in this to highlight and contour with. 3 I couldn’t live without my Bleach London Galixir beauty oil. I use it for everything. It removes stubborn makeup, it’s a great base and I also use it on my nails. 4 I love the Dior J’adore perfume, I wear different fragrances but I always go back to that one. 5 Finally, I can’t live…

TESTICLES The testicles are 2 ball-like glands inside the scrotum. They make sperm and produce testosterone. SCROTUM This is the little pouch of skin that contains and protects the testicles. SHAFT This is the main part of the penis (Yep, the long bit). PROSTATE GLAND Ranging in size from a walnut to a golf ball, the prostate is a sensitive spot. Before ejaculation occurs, the prostate produces a liquid, which helps the sperm move. GLANS Also known as ‘the tip’ or ‘the head’, this is the very top of the penis. URETHRA The male urethra is a tube that transports urine and semen to the tip of the penis. (Yep, it comes out of the same hole.) Let’s be real: if you actually managed to keep a straight face in…

Standing on the red carpet of the Golden Globes, Emma Watson looked defiant when asked if she had ever suffered sexual harassment in Hollywood. “It’s amazing because I have experienced the full spectrum,” she said. Emma didn’t go into detail of who, when or even how many times it has happened over her lengthy career, but with those few words she let the world know she had suffered her #MeToo moment as well. And Emma’s hardly alone, right? It feels like everyone is talking about #MeToo right now. And our fave screen queens, like Riverdale’s Lili Reinhart, Lucy Hale and Jennifer Lawrence, have also shared their own personal experiences. The movement, which has raised awareness of the widespread problem of sexual assault and harassment, has been a momentous moment in…

Is it a bad sign that my boyfriend still talks about his ex a lot even though we’ve been dating for six months? They broke up about five months before we started dating. Becky, 16 I guess it all depends what he’s saying about her. If he talks My older sister told me guys and girls can never just be friends. She reckons one always likes the other. Is that true? Gemma, 14 I’ve been in a few situations where I’ve been mates with girls over the years and they took that attention as me liking them. It was awkward, but I was just honest about it. That being said, throughout high school some of my best friends were girls and I’ve got plenty of mates who are girls now!…

Don’t get us wrong, we love Katherine and Dylan loads, but we gotta admit it’s Brandon Flynn who won the hearts of team GF. From the moment he flashed his pearly whites in the first episode of season one, we’ve been obsessed. So naturally, he was the one we jumped at the chance to speak to! After so many layers where peeled back in season one, did you think season two could achieve that? I think this season really delves into recovery and everyone kind of is dealing with their own form of recovery and what I found recovery does, is that it forces someone to be much stronger than they think they are. And recovery is usually harder than being in a more f****d up place. You have to…

First album you bought? I grew up with my mum and she bought me my first album, which was weird because it was to help me go to sleep at night and for some reason she chose The Offspring. What did you grow up listening to? The Eagles, the Bee Gees and Queen – rest in peace, Freddie – but what’s incredible is that one of my very dear friends is Adam Lambert, who now fronts Queen and I’ve been lucky enough to go to about 13 Queen concerts in the past year. When did you start singing? I was in the school choir. It was pretty uncool and I was called a lot of uncool names. But I think that’s where my love of being different came from. What…

First album you bought? It was Michael Jackson’s Bad. ‘The Way You Make Me Feel’ is literally what inspired me to start singing. What did you grow up listening to? My parents listened to a lot of Croatian songs, so basically anything like Oliver Dragojevi´c. It’s very weird that I have such diverse taste in music, I’ll listen to anything – metal, pop, hip-hop. When did you start singing? I started singing when I was six. I screamed a lot as a baby, so when I was five I wouldn’t stop screaming and my mum’s like, “you know what? Lets put that voice to use and get you some singing lessons.” It was never my idea. I never wanted to sing but I actually ended up loving it and it…

Charlie Torr @charlietorr Followers: 14.1k Joined: 2015 What’s your #1 tip to cultivating a beautiful IG feed? My #1 tip to a great feed would be to stick to a colour scheme, for example I like to incorporate white, blue or black in my photos so my overall feed looks aesthetically pleasing. Do you know any secret IG hacks? A great way to captivate your followers is to use you insta story, I put up snaps of cooking, my dogs, selfies etc... and you can highlight these stories and they’ll show up on the bottom of your bio, so new followers can see them too! What’s the most important lesson you’ve learnt? Honestly, the most important lesson I’ve learnt is to NOT WORRY WHAT OTHERS THINK OF YOU and even…

What qualities make a good intern? As classic as this may sound, being a good intern means being prepared to put in the work. I always say this, and it’s because it’s true: you have to work for the job you want, not the job you have. As an intern you are there to learn the ins and outs of the environment you are in and this means putting all your efforts into even the smallest of jobs. Someone who has a genuine interest in learning the ropes and is observant is someone who will not only succeed in the job, but will get the most out of the opportunity. Truly listening to instructions means working hard to be self-sufficient. If you can be told something once, pick it up…

The Teacher’s Square (hashtag or box shape below the index finger): You’d be a fab teacher, coach, counsellor or mentor of some kind. The Girdle of Venus (short line above the heart line): You’re a bit too wound-up and nervous. You feel emotions very deeply, with extreme highs and loooow lows. The Apollo Line (runs vertically down the side of the palm): You’re in for a super successful career. Your creative, confident nature will serve you well. The Bracelet Lines (around your wrist): The more solid and unbroken the lines are the better life you will live. Broken lines indicate an indulgent and unhealthy person. Four lines are very rare and indicate that you’ll have a long, healthy and successful life. If the first bracelet line is chained, you’ll have…

Highlighter Use a holographic highlighter to accentuate your cheekbones as a base for the glitter. Using a foundation brush, swipe on a clear balm over the area, then press holographic silver glitter over the balm. You can use as much or as little as you want. Eyes Do a light smokey eye to give your festival look a bit more depth, but hold off on filling the lids with shadow. Apply mascara, then swipe balm over your lids and under your eyes. Gently press glitter onto the areas. Make sure you use cosmetic grade glitter and not craft glitter. Lips Again, start with a good sticky balm on your lips. You might also want to prep them with a sugar scrub. Then, using a brush or even tweezers, place multi-coloured…

TONY SAYS: This is all about the smokey eye. Start by smudging out a brown eyeliner pencil close to the lash line. I like the MECCA MAX Eye Max Eyeliner Pencil in Brown Eyed Girl. Next, use an eyeshadow palette with a good mix of smokey shades, like the MECCA MAX Wink Weapon Mini Palette. Begin with the darkest colour on the outer corner, before blending with more mid-tones through the socket for diffused edges. Then apply MECCA MAX Fluttering Falsies Butterfly Kisses false lashes, followed by a good coating of mascara to blend your natural lashes into false lashes. Gently comb onto bottom lashes to define them. TONY SAYS: I’m loving this bold, winged eye look – it’s so dramatic and those brows are heaven! Start by exaggerating out…

Even though there are no actual bones in a penis, it can break. This is known as a penile fracture (OUCH). During the night when a guy is sleeping, it’s normal for him to experience between three to five erections. Despite popular belief, foot size has nothing to do with penis size. Phallophobia is the fear of a penis. One testicle always hangs a little lower than the other so they don’t knock into each other when a guy is walking. Ejaculation has nothing to do with the brain, but instead is stimulated by his spinal cord. The penis stops growing when a guy finishes puberty. Everyone develops at a different rate, but the average age for all a guy’s body parts to be fully grown is 16.…

Each state and territory in Australia has its own dedicated support organisation for victims of sexual assault and harassment. And they will help you with confidential information, counselling or just a hug and some support, if needed. Also, they will never pressure you to report a crime to police if you don’t want to. They just don’t want you to go through this time alone. Find their details here… ACT Canberra Rape Crisis Centre 6247 2525. New South Wales NSW Rape Crisis Centre 1800 424 017.

WORKS AT: ON air @ 2DayFM MOVIE YOU COULD WATCH OVER AND OVER: Not allowed to judge me (because I’m a nerd) but Star Wars: A New Hope. All day, every day. SAVING UP FOR: ALWAYS my next holiday. THE COOLEST FAMOUS PEOPLE YOU’VE MET: I’ve been lucky enough to meet all kinds of cool people, but Taylor Swift was SUPER nice. FAVOURITE DATE: Went to Mexico a few years back and organised a private dinner out on a jetty, over the water. Had a harpist (yes a HARPIST) playing while we ate! CELEB CRUSH: Gal Gadot... WONDER WOMAN! GIRL FASHION TREND YOU JUST DON’T GET: I will NEVER understand why girls get their lips pumped up to look like a Kardashian. You know Kylie looks like a duck, right?…

She’s obsessed with the same soundtrack as us, she grew up reading Girlfriend, she’s someone you could instantly become best friends with, and after hanging out with her we had a sudden urge to go out and buy a black Adidas hoodie. It’s time you got to know Amy Shark. What’s your main theme behind the album? The main theme behind the album is exactly what the title pretty much is. I think the way I’m looking at this album, now I hear it in its entirety, it’s like when you delve into a new series and the first two seasons are just so epic, because people are crushing on each other and then someone else likes that person, and maybe they don’t last, but then they get together and…

First album you bought? It was a Keith Urban album, I’m not quite sure which one but it had that song ‘Days Go By’ on it and that was the first song that got me into music because I wanted to play it on guitar. What did you grow up listening to? I grew up listening to country like Shania Twain, Keith Urban, Allan Jackson, Lee Kernigan but it’s completely different because that’s not what I like to sing but that’s what I like to listen to. When did you start singing? I started singing in grade nine and the first song I ever performed was ‘I Miss You’ by Blink 182. What instruments do you play? Firstly, I grew up singing and I got bored of that, so I…

First album you bought? Encore by Eminem and the 2002 Triple J Hottest 100 album. I bought them on my seventh birthday. What did you grow up listening to? I have a very distinct memory of every single Sunday sitting around at family breakfast listening to Santana’s Greatest Hits. Also my dad was a massive Elton John fan so I grew up listening to him all the time. ‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight?’ was the first song I ever sang at school. When did you start singing? In terms of music, singing was the last thing I did. My parents put me into piano lessons when I was 4, which I absolutely hated but I did it for 12 years. I also taught myself to play guitar and then…
