2019 was all about micro-palettes, 6-9 pan palette

2019 was all about micro-palettes, 6-9 pan palettes in ultra compact sizes ideal for traveling & for creating simple, everyday looks.
.
.
However, it wasn’t until this year that I finally picked up one of the @fentybeauty Snap Shadows Palettes. I grabbed No.3 Deep Neutrals. This has been a great little palette for Zoom calls & professional meetings. 💗
.
.
Overall, I like this compact little palette. The mattes are the standouts in this palette. They’re super easy to build up on the eyes. 👀 The shimmer formula is a standard shimmer finish ✨ - no wet or foiled finish.

How are you guys liking the outdoor series? ☀️

🍊 🍊 Currently, wishing my face looked and felt like it did on the day I took this photo.
.
.
As some of you know, this past week, learned the hard way that some brands are definitely ‘Clean Washing.’ 🚫 🧼 🚫 I came across a supposedly ‘clean’ face wash at the drug store and was curious to give it a try.
.
.
Ended up with the worst flare up of eczema on my face EVER. 🙈 And of course, the stress caused by the flare up, caused my flare up to worsen. 😫 Currently, on the mend after seeing my dermatologist, but I NEVER want myself or anyone else to experience this again! .
.
🗣🗣🗣 Please be careful to thoroughly read ingredient lists and do research on brands that are advertising themselves as clean, but are not certified by an outside party (like Sephora, etc).

Bronzer, for summer? Groundbreaking. 😎 . . But

Bronzer, for summer? Groundbreaking. 😎
.
.
But in all seriousness, bronzer used to be a product that I never saw the benefit of and rarely ever used. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Flash forward to now - and I feel like I rarely come across a bronzer that I don’t want to try! 😂 And this year, I’ve been so excited for so many of the bronzers released! 🛍 .
.
In today’s shot, I’m sharing a close up of the new Baked Bronzer from @kosas. ✨ The formula feels super lightweight, while the finish looks ultra natural on the skin. ☺️ Fans of warm-toned bronzers will likely enjoy this formula! .
.
Do you enjoy bronzers? 🌞 ☀️ .

Not my usual type of shot or my usual style of post. But I’m learning to step out of my comfort zone.
⠀⠀
I cannot remember a time when I didn’t feel self conscious about my skin. I was the first in my grade to develop bad acne and kids can be cruel. After years of treatment, my acne finally (mostly) cleared up but a new concern began to manifest. .
.⠀⠀
Eczema - and not somewhere that could be easily hidden. All over my hands and fingers and even in my scalp. 🖐🏻 🤚🏻 To say I felt self conscious would be an understatement. ⠀⠀
.
.
This year, the eczema on my hands has been the worst it’s ever been. 🔍 In fact, if you zoom into this photo, you can even see the remnants of a recent flair up. New parts of my body have started to become irritated. 🔥 My flair ups are the result of extreme stress but for my hands, the harsh hand-washing worsened some of the pain. ⠀⠀
.
.
The last week, my flair ups have finally started to subside. I’m making an effort to treat and protect my skin. But I’m also done being ashamed of it.
⠀⠀
.
.
I’m not perfect. My skin isn’t perfect. And that’s ok. 🌸

It’s hard to believe that this photo was taken last summer because it feels like a lifetime ago. 🌺 What I would give to be enjoying an evening out in the city I love, excitedly waiting to see my fave #arianagrande gracing the stage.
.
.
But despite experiencing some major lows this year, I’m still holding onto hope that things are changing for the better - for everyone. 💗 .
.
I’m learning to appreciate stillness and rest, as well as to appreciate all that I have in my life. 🙏🏻 And I’m thankful to have this time to sit and plan and to contemplate the type of life I want to lead and the person who I want to be. .
.
Tell me a positive way you’re spending your time this week. 🌈 .
