Never in my wildest youthful dreams did I ever think I’d have to worry about dry skin, but now I do. Like, daily. Sometimes, hourly it seems. In fact, I think I’ll put on some moisturizer right now. BRB! 🙂
Here are some things that have been helping me deal with my dry winter skin.

This is only my favorite MAC powder of all time. No big deal, LOL. I’ve worn it for years, have loved it for years, and I’ll hopefully continue to love it as long as they keep making it.
I don’t like it when powders look powdery, and this doesn’t. It’s better for natural-looking skin than opaque full-coverage makeup, so if that’s what you’re into (the natural look), I think you’ll like it.
In other news, is anybody else craving a salad and a green juice this afternoon?? My body is not-so-subtly telling me that I ate too much junk food over the past few days.
I ate more butter last weekend than I had in the previous six months! — and every bite was glorious.
Well, every bite except for the ones of that Trader Joe’s Pecan Pie in a Jar… That ended up being quite disappointing, for the record. WAY too sweet.
Oh, well. Thankfully, there was a backup pie from Costco, which was bomb! 🙂

I haven’t had a peach Gummi in years, but now I kinda want one… The Too Faced Sweet Peach Spring 2017 Collection is practically an ode to peach Gummies (the round ones that look like doughnuts).
I’m wearing the collection in this video. I’m wearing the eye palette on my eyes, the standalone blush on my cheeks, the face palette with the bronzer, highlighter and blush on top of the other blush on my cheeks (there’s a lot happening on my cheeks), and Peach Tease gloss on my lips.
How much of your holiday shopping did you do online this year? I gotta be honest…Amazon Prime sure comes in handy sometimes, if you know what I mean. Yup, I still have a few things left to get, but I’m sure everything will work itself out. Even though Christmas always falls on the 25th every year, it’s like it sneaks up on me every time, LOL! Why is that? I’m always doing something at the last minute.
*sigh*
Here are some things I’ve been loving this holiday season. How about you, sweets? What are some things you’ve been all about?
1. Urban Decay Solstice Moondust Eyeshadow
2. HomeGoods holiday home decor
3. Bath & Body Works Spiced Apple Toddy Candle
4. Tom Ford Winter Soleil Lip Foils
5. MAC Shadescent in Creme d’Nude
