It’s nearly summer! And I’m finishing up another batch of products just in time. Some of these will be familiar to frequent readers, as there are three recurring favorites in here, but there are also some new favorites to be found — I think this is the most 10/10 I’ve done in a batch ofContinue reading “May Empties Review”

April Openeds Reviews
This month’s opened products were really about getting ready for warmer weather as Colorado continues to waffle about what season we’re in. But as I think about all of these products the big thing that stands out to me, rather than transitional, is sensorial! For almost all of these products, the texture is possibly theContinue reading “April Openeds Reviews”
April Empties Review
Sometimes I worry about how much skincare I buy, then I see how much skincare I go through and I think “nope, seems fine.” Here’s what I emptied in April! Cosrx Cica Serum I won this serum (and the rest of Cosrx’s cica line) back in late November/early December. This serum isn’t as immediately calmingContinue reading “April Empties Review”
March Openeds Reviews
I evidently broke all my rules about how often one should start new products this month — I usually say no more frequent than once per week. But this month saw a lot of old favorites for me (Krave Beauty, Versed, Inkey List, Good Skin Days) and my skin has been really thirsty and moreContinue reading “March Openeds Reviews”
March Empties Review
Another month down, another bin full of empties. I don’t know how I keep ending up with so many — I think this month is an official record. 17 empties in total? Granted, two are body skincare and five were minis and one was also in use by my husband but now I’m just rationalizing.Continue reading “March Empties Review”
February Openeds Review
February brought new products focused on soothing winter skin. Colorado doesn’t do dry skin any favors in the best of times, and even a winter spent indoors can do numbers on the skin. So I searched my stash for things that could help me get by, plus add a little fun to boot. Skinfood RoyalContinue reading “February Openeds Review”

Hot Skincare Tips for Cold Weather
The temperatures in Colorado right now are downright upsetting — highs in the teens, low in the negatives (in Fahrenheit, of course). While I work from home and have mostly been blessed with not going outside, winter still takes its toll. Knowing that many folks are currently facing the same issues, I wanted to shareContinue reading “Hot Skincare Tips for Cold Weather”
January Empties Review
This is possibly an empties record, which is easy to set when your skincare life practically revolves around minis: two cleansers, two masks, one toner, one serum, one moisturizer, one facial oil and one first essence. Products are listed in the order that I finished them this month.
Cocktailing: Guide to a Skincare Nightcap
The pandemic has really cut down on the number of cocktails I consume, but as I get more into skincare the cocktails have come back — just topically. Of course, for the most part alcohol’s very much fallen out of favor in skincare, but that’s not the sort of cocktail I’m talking about. (Though toContinue reading “Cocktailing: Guide to a Skincare Nightcap”
