My 15 Favorite Beauty Products of 2017

Welcome to my annual roundup of my 15 favorite new-to-me beauty products of the past year! (Here are my lists for 2016, 2015, and 2014.) My 2017 can be summed up in this viral tumblr post: Because I had so little time for blogging in the second half of 2017, this post will double as… Read More My 15 Favorite Beauty Products of 2017

Low-Buy Progress Report #7: July

After my little spending spree in the UK last month, I decided to go on a replacement-only makeup/polish no-buy for the month of July. I’m happy to report that I didn’t need any makeup or polish replacements and had no trouble avoiding new purchases. I don’t know why, but it’s much easier for me to… Read More Low-Buy Progress Report #7: July

My 15 Favorite Beauty Purchases of 2015

I meant to post this earlier, but life (in the form of interview prep, followed by actual interviewing, followed by jetlag) got in the way, so here we are almost halfway through January and I still haven’t written about my favorite beauty purchases of 2015. But that’s about to change! A few notes before we… Read More My 15 Favorite Beauty Purchases of 2015

Lush Cleanser, Sephora Serum, and a Skincare Update

Long time no skincare post! This is nominally a review of the two newest additions to my routine… …but actually more of a ramble. Enjoy. At the end of last year, in a stroke of exceptionally bad luck, I ran out of all of my skincare staples in the space of a month. Sunscreen, moisturizer,… Read More Lush Cleanser, Sephora Serum, and a Skincare Update

Empties, Fall 2014

I’ve used up quite a few products, mostly skincare, in the last month or two, so I thought I’d take the opportunity to write my first empties post. I’ve been wondering why so many people (myself included) love such posts. Maybe because it’s the closest the law-abiding among us will ever come to the thrill… Read More Empties, Fall 2014

Skincare Routine, April 2014

I hesitated for a while before writing this post, because I’ve had a skincare routine for only two years, which makes me an utter amateur compared to my favorite beauty bloggers. Before the age of twenty-four, I did almost nothing to my skin. I never moisturized, because I didn’t know that women under forty used… Read More Skincare Routine, April 2014
