Michelle is an industry professional and sought after commentator in beauty, retail and business.
"I started my wholesale company, The Cosmetic Department after a trip to the United States where I was shocked at how much we pay for cosmetics in Australia. I immediately thought, something needs to done about this! After wholesaling to pharmacies for the past 14 years, I wanted to offer these products at a fraction of the normal cost directly to customers. I really love what I do and I love seeing people leave our POP UP sales with a smile on their face, knowing that they have saved".
