A Fresh Perspective on My Spring 2020 Skincare Routine

I've been sticking with a skincare routine that’s really kept my skin looking fresh and lively, even with all the stress and tiredness over the past few months.

Throughout, I somehow veered into talking about Tom Hardy, morning breath, and some questionable storylines. Hang tight, we'll tackle the lipstick first. After all, the holiday season is nearing,…

IDEAL SHADES FOR THE SUMMER-TO-FALL TRANSITION

Using cream eyeshadow with your fingers feels incredibly satisfying, perhaps because it’s reminiscent of the playful experimentation of childhood.

A Peek Inside My Summer 2020 Makeup Bag

I might be a bit late to update my makeup for the season, but with the UK expecting a mini heatwave next week, I'm not ready to let go of summer just yet! I mean, who says we have to strictly follow the seasons? For me, autumn doesn't really start until October rolls around. While officially…
