Are you more comfortable in bolder or subtler eye makeup?

Are you more comfortable in bolder or subtler eye makeup?

I’d say it’s harder for me to do subtle makeup because for me, I just want to use all the colors… so definitely bolder!

How has your hand care routine changed over the year?

How has your hand care routine changed over the year?

Well, I went from barely having one to definitely having one. I try to remember to use cuticle oil as I’ve had a lot of cracking/peeling in that area over the last few months, though I am not as consistent as I need to be. I regularly use hand cream–usually before bed–and am definitely more...

What three skincare products are you thankful for this year?

Sara Happ Lip Slip (that should count!), Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Gel Cream (super hydrating), and Kiehl’s Creme der Corps (saves my swatching arm). All staples in my routine!

What three makeup products are you thankful for this year?

La Mer The Soft Fluid Foundation has been a go-to all year long, and foundation is often something that makes me feel better when I am down. It should be obvious… but also very thankful for my Sydney Grace x Temptalia collaboration palettes for an assortment of reasons! Terra Moons Veil Nebula is...

Does processing/shipping speeds impact what retailer you purchase from?

Does processing/shipping speeds impact what retailer you purchase from?

Absolutely! If I know I can get it from one place faster, I’ll opt for that over the slower retailer unless there’s a huge discount at one but not the other.

Do you plan ahead for Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales?

For beauty, I don’t indulge very much as I’ve always purchased most things by that (since I am reviewing them),but in general, I try to think about what I’ve been “needing” or “wanting” ahead of time so I can look for deals in November. This is particularly true with larger purchases...

What's your current body skincare routine?

I’ve been alternating between a long-time favorite, Kiehl’s Creme de Corps, and something new I picked up: Avene XeraCalm AD Cream, for moisturizing. For in-shower, I’ve been working my way through a Fresh body wash.

Have your preferences changed for what you like in a blush? (If so, how?)

Have your preferences changed for what you like in a blush? (If so, how?)

Sort of. I’d say that I prefer buildable, more medium-coverage blush with some shimmer, which I’ve kind of preferred for a very long time, but I definitely don’t bother (personally! as a favorite!) with really intensely pigmented formulas in deeper tones, and I rarely will favor a matte blush.
