I really want to make biscotti.
So colorful…
Not all shoes are made the same.
In case you’re equally obsessed with type…
Sending good vibes your way. Whatever you’re doing today, stay safe, and WASH THOSE HANDS!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

That article on Nick Dudman was fascinating. Naturally, he had me at “Yoda”.
The eye-opening thing about pandemic skincare has been that I don’t need all the things. All I’ve needed is to wash my face (FAB cleanser, of course) and moisturize. I use a super-gentle toner now and then. Pimple gel once or twice. (Origins makes my favorite.) That’s all. My skin has never been better. Who knew?
If you want biscotti, save the trouble and go to Trader Joe’s. So good! Especially the chocolate. We almost always keep it in the house.
Good luck with The Mountain.
The cloud eye look is like Cirque du Soleil for everyday.
Totally obsessed with typeface, too, though I’m a sans serif gal. Loved the documentary about Helvetica.
Did a second transfer of buckwheat pucks to the sealed top container. So many loose noodles.
Aaand…I’m late to the Floor Is Lava party but omg what a show!
