You guys. I HAVE BEEN DOING MY FOUNDATION WRONG FOR FIVE YEARS. I’ve been doing foundation the way YouTubers and influencers do foundation and it’s WRONG. Well, okay. Let me stop. Nothing in makeup is “wrong.” You do you. You do what works best for your bone-enshrined meat sack—the skin type, the shape and the style. …

I promised I would let you guys in on a drugstore gem in my last post, so here we go. Recently (and by “recently,” I mean two months ago; but in my mind, it’s still March so…the concept of time is evanescent at this point), I went to my folks’ “beach house” (it’s not actually…

I had planned on sitting down and really thinking about what I would write before hopping on my laptop. But while I was contemplating my words over my blueberry muffin and coffee, I realized I would be sitting and thinking for a long time, and within that time, the raw emotions I’m feeling now may…

Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died. I never met her, and my understanding of her achievements and the impact they had on this country, (likely the world) were, until this post, only slightly better than anyone who has paid attention to the growing pop-culturization (this is not a word…but neither were a lot of words currently…

You know what I like? Colors. You know what I don’t like? Social constructs dictating what constitutes “professional.” It’s the reason I feel I can’t (read, actually can’t) wear colorful eyeshadow to work, have rainbow hair, a neck tattoo (only tangentially related to this conversation, I know) or otherwise have nice things. Like when Cinnamon Hitler banned TikTok. Like. …

So I made a Tik Tok I’m not yet sure I’ll publicly post because I’m afraid of the feedback I’ll get. It actually took my brain several tries to reach that conclusion; rather than “oh, it’s too personal;” “why would you share your baggage with complete strangers? No one is on Tik Tok for that…

I promised the next post I did would be a product review. The bad news is, I haven’t actually purchased anything new. The good news is, I still have some of my favorite concealer left, which in my head, justifies this post going forward…even though I don’t need to physically possess something to review it…Well,…

I think we can all agree 2020 has been the universe’s version of World War II, and us humans are Poland. One hit after another after another, and our pneuma is in shreds. We’re t i r e d. Or at least, I am. On top of you know, the world ending, my firm is…

I’ve been mad before. 95%of the times I get mad are at myself for doing something stupid. The other 4.9% of times are at my family or husband for pointing out that I’ve done something stupid which I wasn’t ready to admit to myself. The last 0.1% of the times I get angry are at other…

I have deep-set, slightly down-turned eyes and I hate them. Spare me the “but you should always love yourself and the way God made you” argument because first: I don’t believe in God (I’m capitalizing the “G” because I studied 4 years of religion and learned it was respectful to do so). Okay. Let me…
