If You Know Who Milli Vanilli Are, Stop Doing Your Concealer Like a Youtuber

There are some universal truths. One of which is that our skin, post 40, just isn’t what it is when we were 25. Because life isn’t fair. But at 25, most of us were flailing around in deep existential crises and finding ourselves on dates where we were made to feel unsophisticated if we didn’t want to bone on the first night and acting like we knew exactly who we are when in fact we didn’t know the first thing about who we are and pining after some jobless super douche named Xavier. So, if getting older means having any of that get even a little bit better, I’m happy for the tradeoff being that I have to be more judicious with my concealer. Thrilled, even.

So, we all know that the skin around our eyes is the thinnest on our face. Of course we know this. We watch things and know things and can see and feel this in our own faces. This thinness means this skin gets wrinkled, shows more veins, shows more signs of general wear and tear from life, more than other areas on our face. I feel like there’s this great makeup conspiracy that if you just throw enough light colored makeup on this area, it will erase, it will cover, it will turn back time.

The Best, Beautiful, Cheap Containers For Everything In Your Kitchen

As we all know, a perfectly decanted kitchen is what happiness is made of. A glittering, glimmering collection of vessels and jars and bins in your kitchen and pantry is a visual nirvana matched only by a meticulously color-coded refrigerator, bursting at the seams with a rainbow of farmer’s market produce.

(Instagram has reeeeeeally done a number on us.)

However! The truth is, decanting can help you change how you feel in the kitchen, create amazing efficiencies for dinner and snack time, and even help reduce your calorie intake - in fact I wrote about that right HERE. (link to other decanting post)

But first you need gloriously easy to find, effective, cheap, MOSTLY AMAZON containers to begin this perfectly decanted life you seek.

Do You Know Your Adaptive Survival Style?

In 2019, the word trauma is basically a national catchphrase.

The news is traumatizing; children being ripped from their parents at the border is traumatizing; reading about the assaults on #MeToo victims is traumatizing; learning about yet another mass shooting at a school, church, or music festival — that’s traumatizing. And yes, living as a woman, an immigrant, a person of color or a queer person in America can increase your risks of trauma a hundredfold or more. But before any of this, there was an event that was potentially much more traumatizing than what you read on your Twitter feed.

Your childhood.
