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”
April Openeds Reviews
April was rough in Colorado — the whole time, it was so windy I barely emerged from my hermit cave. But I’m starting to look forward to summer, and time spent outside. My new skincare choices reflect this: these are mostly more transitional textures — not too heavy, not too light, easy to include orContinue reading “April Openeds Reviews”
April Empties Reviews
This month feels like a (comparatively) light month for empties for me. Between being slammed at work and having a new puppy, I didn’t always take the time for myself and my full-fledged skincare routine. It’s always interesting to see the rate at which I go through products, though — it feel like I emptyContinue reading “April Empties Reviews”
December Openeds Reviews
My skincare in December felt very dominated by my “sheet mask every day” challenge — which I did succeed at! But I did still empty a fair bit of skincare, so I had to open a fair bit too! And since I get questions every time: I don’t rate skincare when opening it — you’llContinue reading “December 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 Openeds Reviews
It may have been an unseasonably warm November in Colorado — we still haven’t gotten any meaningful snow in the Front Range, and I even had the windows open this week — but the wind and low humidity is hitting hard. I’ve specifically been finding my skin drying out during the day, so while manyContinue reading “November Openeds Reviews”
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”
October Openeds Reviews
You should not open this many products in a month. I have a problem. I also have a long skincare routine that keeps my aging, dry, dehydrated, seborrheic-dermatitis-prone feeling good, so arguably that problem is more of a solution. Enough justification, though: here’s what entered my skin- and body-care routine last month. Wash-Off Products 🍏Continue reading “October Openeds Reviews”
