Happy Easter, ya’ll! I’m off to the East Bay to have Easter lunch with my parents but wanted to say a quick hello.
After lunch I’m going to work on a few posts for this week, including reviews of a couple of spring fragrances and drugstore blushes. I also plan to finally finish the tutorial for pastel pink and blue eyes.
I hope you’re having a wonderful day and that your heart is feeling light and hopeful!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
