I’ve been working my way through the Charlotte Tilbury line and so far, I’ve loved everything I’ve tried. Naturally, I had to try the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation. I mean, it says magic.🧙♀️🔮✨ I’ve been in an in between space with foundations, trying them here and there but not married to any in particular. I […]
Best Hand Creams
If that title doesn’t tell you I’ve reached old lady status, my tea drinking, crossword puzzle doing and nature watching will.

If you’re like me, wastefulness bothers you and you wish you could find another use for your beauty products. Donation is an option of course, but the majority of organizations actually require beauty products to be unused. […]
The Worst Beauty Products I Tried in 2018
I know some bloggers prefer to only tell you about the products they love. In a perfect world, I would enjoy every product I try, regardless of whether it was gifted to me or purchased with my own money. I have a healthy amount of both. The truth is, and I have no room for […]
