Has your skincare routine changed as a result of the pandemic?

It has not! Since I’m home most of the time, I only have to wear a mask for less than an hour or two a week (and often broken up into 5-10 minute periods!).

Has wearing makeup ever gotten you into any trouble?

Has wearing makeup ever gotten you into any trouble?

I don’t think it’s ever gotten me into serious trouble, but I definitely had some professors at law/business school who I felt took me less seriously (one asked why I wore so much makeup and said it was very unprofessional).

Do you find that you use multi-tasking makeup products in multiple ways?

Do you find that you use multi-tasking makeup products in multiple ways?

How do you stay within your beauty budget during the holidays?

How do you stay within your beauty budget during the holidays?

Making lists always helps to keep track of what I have my eye on, and then I try to keep track of what may or may not go on sale (and for how much of a discount). Actually tracking expenses in real-time is helpful, too, because then you’ll be very aware when you start using it up.
