Just spend the money. The Sunday Riley Go to Bed With Me Set is totally worth the money. I’ve been a long-time fan of Sunday Riley products really for no other reason than the products just work for my skin. The set contains: Ceramic Slip Cleanser: Great second cleanser after using my favorite cleansing balm. Pink Drink: A really nice…

Hello, fall. A constant in makeup Too Faced Better Than Sex Liquid eyeliner. I bought it last month in Miami and I have been using it every day I wear makeup since then. Scent I’ve been reaching for Maison Margiela Jazz Club. For several years now! I can’t believe how consistent I am with that. It just smells so good.…

A Wedding in Sanibel So, it’s wedding season! I recently attended my very first beach wedding. The wedding was in SW Florida, the weather was perfect, and I was eaten alive by blood-sucking creatures called no-see-ums. But the reason I bring all this up it’s because I had a hard time finding a dress. The dress code was beach formal…

Just Listen Recently, I sort of shot the wad with my listening skills. I found myself in a space where I should have remained silent and just listened, but for some reason I felt the need to have something to say. Lately, I noticed I have been talking more and listening less, and nothing good has come out of that.…

I want to try to make this a thing, but I am going to forgive myself right now if I don’t. I recently just came back from a celebratory getaway – a week-long (ok, 6 days) vacation in Ft. Lauderdale Beach. We generally go to Miami for breaks, but I convinced my S/O to go to FLL instead. I used…

I thought I might make out with more than I did from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale – I had 32 items on my wish list. I ended up with just a few things from the sale and some regular all-year-around stuff. The best part is, it’s all still available at the great prices I picked them up for.

I do know better than this… but I managed to get myself sunburned. On top of that, I recently moved to a new apartment where the dry air (and electric static) is out of control. So, to remedy that, I first bought an aesthetically pleasing humidifier, which is working quite well for the static electricity and humidity levels in the…

Stock Island, Key West In the middle of this cool, brisk, October in the DC metro, I can’t help but wonder where the year went and what I did with it. To say the year has been stressful is an understatement, and I’d be preaching to the choir. It’s definitely affected my beauty and lifestyle habits, although I’m not really…

Just when you think you’ve seen and felt it all on your face, something great comes along and says, “Hey, now, look at me!” I received the Then I Met You Living Cleansing Balm several months ago (maybe even a year!) and have been totally smitten with it. It’s unlike any cleansing balm I have ever used and I really…

Prepare yourself for soft, supple skin! One of my favorite things to use in a skincare routine is a sleeping mask. It makes your skin soft, pumps it with moisture, can pull double duty by working as a regular moisturizer plus overnight mask, can help lighten acne scars, can exfoliate… the list can continue but I will stop right there!…

You know, I thought with this whole global pandemic thing that working from home would be fantastic. In the past, I thought I would enjoy a full-time work-from-home job because of the convenience, but I really love being in the city. I often remind myself that many people work from home and are successful at it, so maybe I just…
