Why We Chose Prince Albert Hotel Adelaide I visited the Prince Albert Hotel in Adelaide, looking for a city pub with good reviews. The food photos looked fresh and well-presented, and the pub keeps its Facebook and Instagram updated regularly, which gave me confidence in the quality.

At one point, I thought, “Why not just do it myself?” That’s how I ended up trying DIY lash extensions.
