Months ago I heard that my lady crush Evanna Lynch, i.e. Luna Lovegood, would be releasing her own vegan, cruelty-free beauty subscription box, and I was SO EXCITED that the minute it was available for pre-order I bought it without thinking twice. The first box arrived a week or so ago, and I thought I’d…
Wow, it’s been a long ass time since I wrote an empties post. It’s something I did once and didn’t feel the need to do again, but since my goal for the year is to use up a whole lot of stuff, I think we should check out some of my trash. Note: this is…
I am very done with big “influencers”. I unsubscribed from most of them long ago, and the few who retained a shred of credibility, like Tati, have lost it. How can we trust them when they spend their time sucking up to brands and shilling their own terrible products? Answer: we can’t. It’s not in…
I haven’t done a review in a long while, but I was using this product this morning and wanted to give you my thoughts about it. I purchased the Mizon Black Snail All in One Cream from Amazon in the fall and I’ve been using it just about every day since. I was interested in…
Am I too late in the Christmas season to talk about products I don’t want? Yes? Oh well, you’re getting another anti-haul anyway. I know that I talked about some inexpensive products in my Ulta anti-haul, but there’s more drugstore stuff that’s been released that I feel personally victimized by. Mostly because they’re pointless, gimmicky…
If you’re anything like me and mildly obsessed with Asian beauty products, you’re likely also always concerned about what’s actually in the stuff you’re slathering all over your face. Enter Allure to confirm our worst fears: apparently dangerous levels of mercury have been found in skincare products being sold on Amazon and eBay. Lovely. According…
I’ve been home from my most recent round of travels for a few days and I’m already packing to leave town again. This time I’m going home for the holidays; Christmas is something I look forward to all year, but Dan has to come back to Albany before the actual holiday and that sucks. Anyway,…
I mentioned last month that I was trying a natural deodorant, and despite my struggles, I’m still on the natural train. At this point, I’ve tried several different brands and formulas, and I think I’ve learned some things that may (or may not, who knows?) be helpful to you, my internet friends. I’ve already talked…

Wow, I can’t believe I’m writing an actual review. It’s been a minute. So, I’ve been using this moisturizer for a few weeks, and I have some thoughts. First and foremost is the thought that I often have when using Asian beauty products: how in the hell do companies there make such good products so…
If you haven’t heard by now, Victoria’s Secret sucks. More specifically, Victoria’s Secret Chief Marketing Officer, Ed Razek, sucks. According to a new interview in Vogue, the CMO has a very specific vision for the annual fashion show, and that vision doesn’t include plus size or trans models. Their show is a “fantasy”, they have…
