I am so excited to be back in Colorado right now — but I spent most of my August in the humid climes of Tulsa, Oklahoma. My skincare routine definitely shifted while in Oklahoma, mostly because my entire life routine shifted a lot. Thankfully my skin’s generally been doing pretty well, though the heat andContinue reading “August Opened Reviews”

May Openeds Reviews
May seemed to be the one month of spring we got this year in Colorado — everything went from dry and windy in April to lush and green, and next month will certainly be back to dry and windy but 30 degrees (Fahrenheit) warmer than in April. May was a weird month for me onContinue reading “May Openeds Reviews”
May Empties Reviews
Colorado decided to mostly skip spring and my skincare routine seems to have done the same — May feels more like I’ve been emptying winter products than working my way through seasonal products. May has thankfully been more rainy and less windy, so my skin has been feeling a lot less dehydrated and uncomfortable. CheckContinue reading “May Empties Reviews”
March Empties Reviews
March was a big month for me, and not just because I wound up with 15 empties. Work has been nuts, and we just got a new puppy (who, of course, puppy bombed the photo for this post). My skin’s also noticing that winter’s about to end and spring is starting, so what I’m lookingContinue reading “March Empties Reviews”
February Openeds Reviews
Oh February. You were wild. As I’ve mentioned in other posts, I continued battling a rash and I think it’s finally subsided for real, but it really wrecked me this month. That resulted in me having (comparatively) fewer opened products, since I didn’t want to introduce too many new variables to my routine after itContinue reading “February Openeds Reviews”
February Empties Reviews; or Two Years as a Skincare Group Admin
This weekend marks the two year anniversary of the Skincare Fanatics Facebook group, and looking at my empties it’s very clear to me how much it’s affected my life. When I started the group, my routine was, well, getting more elaborate, but still pretty small. Now, I’ve budgeted myself $100 USD per month and shopContinue reading “February Empties Reviews; or Two Years as a Skincare Group Admin”
January Openeds Reviews
After complaining about no snow in November and December, January has finally packed a wintery wallop. The weather and darkness outside, combined with life stress, has my skin not super happy this month: itchy body skin and the return of breakouts around my mouth. At the same time, given my weird “I run out ofContinue reading “January Openeds Reviews”
December Empties Review
I was a bit surprised to see that I still managed to empty a fair bit of skincare in December — it felt like a very busy month, between holidays and a birthday staycation, and my sheet mask every day challenge (which I did manage to finish! More on that at some other time) didContinue reading “December Empties Review”

November Empties Reviews
Helloooooo depths of autumn. This is the latest it’s been before getting some serious snow here in Colorado, and the weather has been remarkably mild, but the increased cold weather dryness has definitely begun to hit. My empties seem to come in phases, with this month being lots of serums in particular. As a reminder,Continue reading “November Empties Reviews”
