It has admittedly been difficult for me to get excited about makeup (which is usually one of my favorite things!) in 2020. Not just because of the overall life-altering trauma the COVID-19 pandemic has caused- but also because I’m wearing a mask 99.9% of the time. I mean, what’s the point of wearing makeup if […]
I’m sure when people who have known me for a while and/or know me well think of my favorite things for the month of September every year- Pumpkin Spice Lattes and chunky scarves come to mind almost immediately- and they’re not wrong.

Getting dolled up just to stay at home seems like a waste of time and product, I’m sure. But I’ve found that every once […]
In a month that has been filled with stress, uncertainty, and long periods of confinement/quarantine in my apartment in an earnest effort to “flatten the curve”- to compile a list of my favorite things was, admittedly, a little tricky.
