Happy Lunar New Year! Just kidding, it's not actually until February. But sometime in the last few years, it's become de rigueur for brands to release a bunch of stuff for Lunar New Year. I never really noticed it because I live in the U.S. and it's not something that's celebrated everywhere, but now, immediately... Continue Reading →
MOTD: Damn, it’s fall edition
I know people love fall, and I'm into it for spooky reasons, but I was not fully prepared for the end of summer. It's still warm here, but it's been raining for days and the cooler weather is making appearances at night. Ugh. This means winter is coming. But I took a few minutes to... Continue Reading →
Travel makeup
It's been almost a year since I started traveling in a mildly insane manner. Boston, Michigan, various cities in Florida multiple times, Rochester, Albany, and now Roanoke, Virginia. Dan is here doing some kind of airplane training, and since there's really no need for me to be home, I met him here after my weekend... Continue Reading →
Halloween collections
There's been a lot of emphasis on and hype around holiday collections this year. Multiple brands were releasing their Christmas collections in late August or early September; not only is that WAY too early but it also ignores an extremely important makeup centric holiday. Seems kinda asinine to me, but not every brand has forsaken... Continue Reading →
Let’s talk about: self-care
I'm sure you noticed that I was having kind of a rough day yesterday. I was having all of the feelings, not least among them was impotent rage, and today hasn't been much better. Luckily I only needed to work for about four hours, so I spent the rest of my day trying to take... Continue Reading →

My Little Pony, My Little Pony…
My stuff arrived! I'm not typically a sucker for cool/cute packaging but this collection got me. Do you see how freaking cute this stuff is?! You've outdone yourselves this time Colourpop. I cannot wait to try this stuff tomorrow.
Let’s talk about: Colourpop
I. Love. Colourpop. A lot, obviously. I love them even more now that they're about to drop a vintage My Little Pony collection. I don't like to be one of those people who's like "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!", but that's kind of how I feel about this collection. I don't know that I'll... Continue Reading →
Colourpop + My Little Pony
So damn excited for the Colourpop My Little Pony collection!
I think it’s fall now
As I've mentioned once or twice, I live in upstate New York. We've had sort of an odd summer; it was very rainy and not as hot as normal, but since Labor Day the weather has been gorgeous. Sunny, hot, perfect summer weather. I think someone switched on fall because today it's gray, gloomy and... Continue Reading →
