It feels a bit like I wound up with a whole new routine this month, but given how I’ve renewed my skincare practice with new vigor, I suppose that makes sense. My skin has gotten even thirstier than usual with the shift towards spring in Colorado (though leaves are only hitting the trees now, inContinue reading “April Openeds Reviews”

April Empties Reviews
It feels like I was back to my old tricks in April, with over 10 empties. You would think that would mean a complete routine overhaul, but my routine is so long that you would be wrong. That said, while I spent April focusing on getting back into skincare (sometimes work wears me down, andContinue reading “April Empties Reviews”
Face Off of the Krave Beauty Sunscreens: Beet Shield vs Beet the Sun
If you’re on Skincare Internet, you’re probably at least aware of k-beauty sunscreens. They started to get particularly popular in the U.S. around three years ago. None had as much of a cult following as Krave Beauty’s Beet Shield (though Purito and Klairs sunscreens deserve an honorable mention). This sunscreen was known for its wearability,Continue reading “Face Off of the Krave Beauty Sunscreens: Beet Shield vs Beet the Sun”
March Openeds Reviews
Guess who’s back. Back again. A surprising amount of discontinued and reformulated skincare, that’s what! Great to have some old friends back in my routine, as well as try some new things. And stay tuned for next week, when Beet the Sun and Beet Shield go head-to-head (ish). Back Again 💖 Krave Beauty Beet theContinue reading “March Openeds Reviews”
February Openeds Reviews
It’s funny, for such an extensive skincare routine, I tend to empty (and thus open) a lot of products in the same category at the same time. In February, it was serums — though there’s some other goodies in here, too. As a reminder, these are simply first impressions, and more thorough results and ratingsContinue reading “February Openeds Reviews”
Lisa’s List: Top-Rated Skincare of 2022 Part 1: Cleansers, Masks, Toners & Sunscreen
It’s that time of year again — when I round up my top-rated (10/10) skincare from the previous year. Last year, this took two posts (Lisa’s List: Top-Rated Skincare of 2021 Part 1 — Toners, Essences, Serums, Creams & Oils and Lisa’s List: Top-Rated Skincare of 2021 Part 2 — Wash-Off Products, Actives, Sunscreen & Other Skincare),Continue reading “Lisa’s List: Top-Rated Skincare of 2022 Part 1: Cleansers, Masks, Toners & Sunscreen”
October Opened Reviews
Nothing says “life needs to slow down” like posting my October openeds reviews halfway through November. On top of it being the busy season at work (related side note: if you’re in the US and need health insurance, it’s OEP right now so go enroll), after not planning on doing any more trips until 2023,Continue reading “October Opened Reviews”
October Empties Reviews
How is it already November? October flew by, but I racked up plenty of empties as I spent the increasingly longer evenings on increasingly elaborate skincare routines. (One of these days I should share my whole routine and allow myself to get dragged, but you can probably intuit its length based on these monthly reviews.)Continue reading “October Empties Reviews”
September Openeds Reviews
Most of September’s openeds are already emptied so I discussed them in my last post, but here are some quick reviews of the other four products I brought into my routine for my two week trip to Greece — and beyond. 🍑 Peach & Lily Power Calm Hydrating Gel Cleanser The full-size of the PeachContinue reading “September Openeds Reviews”
September Empties Reviews
Lots of minis this month! The theme of September was definitely traveling: we came back from Tulsa, spent a week at home, then went to Crete for a week and a half for our fifth wedding anniversary. (This is also my excuse for my bad posting schedule. Hopefully October is calmer. So far all signsContinue reading “September Empties Reviews”
