Give Me Glow Pink Moscato Wasted Pressed Highlighter ($17.25 for 0.28 oz.) is a vivid, deeper pink base with cool, bluish undertones paired with contrasting, warm gold shimmer that gave it an intense, metallic finish. It had opaque color payoff in a single layer, and I’d say that a little went a long way so go in with a lighter […]
Good morning! How are you doing, friend? I hope these gorgeous pink lilies bring you some cheer today. They’re called “naked ladies” (or Belladonna Amaryllis), and they pop up in the Bay Area around this time of year. Beautiful, yes? We just finished breakfast; I had a cup of coffee with a slice of homemade banana bread. My neighbor gave […]
There’s a huge misconception that losing weight is a tad bit difficult for vegetarians compared to non-vegetarians who have endless food sources to get their protein from.

That being said, the felt tip on the Ultra-Precise Brow Pen is unlike any other one I’ve tried — it doesn’t blast me with a stripe of product the moment it hits my skin, and I find it easy to make soft, hair-like strokes. The formula isn’t too intensely pigmented and I find myself having to press pretty firmly to […]

L’Occitane Immortelle Precious Emulsion ($80) More than 10 years ago, L’Occitane discovered the anti-aging power of the Corsican immortelle flower—it’s known as the everlasting flower with a bright yellow color that never fades, even after it’s been picked— from the beautiful French island of Corsica.

Gonna miss ya, Allure. “Allure” announced recently that they will cease printing the magazine and moving to an all-digital platform; the last print edition will be December 2022. It was always one of my favorites, so this bums me out. I’m going to miss curling up on my couch with the latest edition and a cup of coffee on Saturday […]
