2020 Successes & Failures

2020 Successes & Failures | A Year-end Reflection

While the mantra of 2020 has been to expect the unexpected, my personal feelings about 2020 felt much less...

5 Healthy Ways for Overcoming Failure

Failure sucks. How we cope with failure doesn't have to. Whether you're a blogger, a student, a creative, or another...

Roses are red, skies are blue. @clarinsusa Lip Oil

Roses are red, skies are blue. @clarinsusa Lip Oil, I love you. 😘

But seriously though - lip oils are such under-appreciated products. They provide the shine of a gloss, but the comfort of a balm.

I love the Mint version of this classic Clarins product because it makes my teeth look a little whiter.

Do you guys like mint? I hate it in food (except mint-flavored, non-chocolate candy). However, I love it in beauty products lol.

Side note: I’m slowly but surely bringing color back to my feed. After trying to keep a seasonal aesthetic “palette,” I discovered that in trying to “edit” myself didn’t feel genuine to me.

Super Shock Shadows are my all-time favorite formu

Super Shock Shadows are my all-time favorite formula of eyeshadow. ✨ These unique cream-to-powder shadows come in a variety of finishes from matte to metallic to sheer, glittery toppers.

The metallic and shimmer shadows are definitely the superior formula compared to the mattes. They provide the most high shine, multi-dimensional finish. 🌟 🌈 If you take care of them, they last well-beyond the 1-3 year shelf life that CP claims.

This photo features 10 of the brands most iconic and best-selling Super Shock Shadows including faves like Twitterpated, Frog, and Riz! ✨ In my humble opinion @colourpopcosmetics Super Shock Shadows remain their best release to-date. ♥️

Beauty or otherwise - tell me about one of your favorite things. 💗

Anyone else missing summer ATM, or just me? ☀️

Anyone else missing summer ATM, or just me? ☀️ 🌞 ☀️

Normally, I love the Winter and everything it brings:
🌬 Refreshing, cold air
❄️ Fresh snow
☕️ Hot Chocolate & Ice Skating ⛸

But with little snow, no fun festivities, and the cold air making outdoor time a little more difficult, I’m officially ready for warmer weather.

Another “nothing new” photo for today. I’m really proud of how I’ve been handling my beauty No Buy this year. 😊 I feel less overwhelmed without the burden of shopping right now. (Side note: one of my favorite creators *literally* announced her Limited Edition collab today, so I may make this one exception to my No Buy and purchase with a gift card that I received for Christmas.)

P.S. These flower pan designs from the Garden Variety collection get me every time I look at them. 🌸 🌺

What’s your favorite season?

Another look using the @Menageriecosmetics Killer

Another look using the @Menageriecosmetics Killer Purr Palette. 🦁 🐾

Unlike the previous look I shared, this warm-toned look uses both metallic shades in the palette.

I loved this soft, shimmery look. (LOL, this is a “soft” look for me - not sure if this qualifies as soft for all! 😂). And NGL I felt even better about this look when I received compliments at the Dunkin Donut’s Drive-Thru! 🤩

No makeup question today, but are you team Dunkin, Starbucks, or do you make your own coffee at home?

The @meltcosmetics Gemini Palette remains my favor

After years of doing my own rolling project pans,

After years of doing my own rolling project pans, I’ve finally decided to participate in a community project pan! #partnersincream of my favorite projects to keep up with last year. This is a project created by Steph Lyons @stephbeauty92 and DaLin @panpanpannomatterwat.

Within Partners in Cream, participants work on 3-6 cream and liquid products in their collections through this yearlong rolling Project Pan. Rules for this year’s #PartnersinCream2021 project:
3-6 Products
Yearlong Rolling Project
Monthly Updates every 10th
Quarterly Refresh

If you followed along with my Yearlong Project last year, some of these babies will be no surprise:
@urbandecaycosmetics Vice Lipstick in Liar
@maybelline Superstay Foundation (120 Ivory)
@tatcha Mini Silk Canvas Primer
@kkwbeauty Creme Contour Stick in Light 1
@glossier Lip Gloss
...... and not pictured but my mini @milkmakeup highlighter in lit

My goal with all of these products is to finish them. At this time, I plan to keep all of these in the project until I finish them but if the foundation is too heavy over the summer, I’ll reevaluate.

Totally unrelated, but I just finished Bridgerton on Netflix and I’m obsessed. What are you watching right now?

When it comes to makeup, eyeshadow is my biggest weakness. 🙈

And there are certain brands like @hudabeautyshop that just continuously catch my attention. When the Nude Obsessions Palettes came out at the end of 2019, I lusted after these babies for so so long before I finally purchased them in 2020.

And I absolutely love these 3 skin tone inspired palettes due to the range in depth and undertones. Like many of Huda’s more recent palettes, these palettes have a ton of pinky, burgundy hues - but I’m not mad about it.

Side note: isn’t it crazy how fast the beauty long cycle has gotten? These came out during October 2019, but it feels like it’s been way longer. 🤦🏻‍♀️

What is something that you always find yourself drawn to?
