The same as I’m very fortunate that day-to-day life has remained the same in many ways, since I already worked from home and am, by choice, more of a homebody.
Overall, not so much! I feel like with the slow down in releases (more in the middle of the year), I was able to explore some new, more indie brands that I might not have had time for.
I knew I wanted to use Pat McGrath’s newer Celestial Divinity palette with Bronze Seduction, so between the two of them, they inspired me to go a certain direction!
