One of these times I’ll actually iron my backdrops, but not this month! It’s been a busy one, though not so much in terms of emptying skincare. This month features the usual suspects like sunscreen and ceramide, vitamin c and propolis serums, as well as some other products you might not have been aware IContinue reading “August Empties Reviews”

July Openeds Reviews
Ah July, nearly the height of summer here in Colorado. It’s been dry and smoky (seemingly the new normal in the Western US), and my skincare has been reflecting that — there’s a strong focus on antioxidants and sunscreen below. As always, products are listed in the order you would theoretically use them in aContinue reading “July Openeds Reviews”
July Empties Review
You know it’s summer when three of your empties are sunscreen. This review includes some hits, some misses and some holy grails. So let’s jump right into what I finished slathering on my dry skin this month. Sweet Chef Oat Milk Latte Cleanser This cleanser has lasted me ages, but it’s a good one —Continue reading “July Empties Review”
May Openeds Reviews
It’s hard to get a good feel for a product within the first weeks, but I always try to anyway. After all, some products are nearly instant hits, and others not so much. This month? Definitely already some hits, definitely some “well it’s usable”. As always, products are listed in the order opened (though photographedContinue reading “May Openeds Reviews”
May Empties Review
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”
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”
December Openeds Review
I’ve never done this before, but I wanted to share my initial review of the products OPENED in December. I’m trying to coin the hashtag #skincareopeneds but I doubt it will stick. (But heyyyy if you want to roll with it, please do.) Anyways, this looks like a lot but I had tried two before, and amContinue reading “December Openeds Review”
Skincare Aesthetics
Let’s talk skincare aesthetics! Obviously we all want skincare that works, that won’t go bad, that’s nice to use, etc. But is there anything specific to packaging that will make you more or less apt to buy something? Any style of container that really increases your joy when using a product? Or do you evenContinue reading “Skincare Aesthetics”
A Pantone Perfect Potion
It’s too soon to give my opinion on this (so far delightful) Vitamin C serum, but I just want to point out that Good (Skin) Days’ “C’s the Day Serum” is nearly a dead ringer for Pantone’s 2021 colors of the year. Probably is a dead ringer if you get the lighting and editing justContinue reading “A Pantone Perfect Potion”
