I’m sure I wasn’t alone in it, but I did indulge in a lot of skincare this year… partially just because Ulta’s Platinum event was just too good and there weren’t many color cosmetic deals I could take advantage of. There was also a lull in eyeshadow releases from the brands I normally...
I’m being more mindful of lip products in general, given that there are some who are wearing it less (or not at all) based on the current environment–and I’m already full-up on lip products anyway, so it’s not like I really have the space to do so anyway.

Okay, okay! I bought the Slim 25″ (it extends) telescoping magnetic grabber with...
