More potted shadows for #texturetuesday, featuring @diormakeup meteore, which is just a beautiful light bronze with delicate glitter. . I'm loving more blitz on my eyes these days so I also like layering @hourglasscosmetics blaze or reflect over it. . For a more smoky look, I've been loving the @marcbeauty seequins eyeshadow in topaz glitter. . What's your preference for shimmer and glitter? It's also holiday season so time to go all out glam anyway 🤩

Monday #motd: @lauramercier tinted moisturizer (as always) @bareminerals gen nude blush - a recent @tjmaxx find that i'm loving @marcbeauty coconut bronzer (no that's not pan, it's broken 😫) @diormakeup meteore - I thought this was discontinued but I think it was brought back for a recent collection! @itcosmetics holiday palette from several years ago, that I can't remember why I stopped using regularly. Finally, I thought I lost my @iliabeauty tinted lip conditioner but it was buried in my pens at my desk. Glad to have this back in use. . Happy Monday!

Cold weather skin saviors. It's so dry and cold that even my oily skin is feeling it and not happy (though I actually love cold weather). My evening routine has shifted slightly to add more hydration. . Not pictured cause I'm a dummy and left it in my shower is the @freshbeauty soy face cleanser that is super gentle but still cleanses really well. . @mujiusa light toning water with high moisture immediately after cleansing and on a damp face to immediately lock some moisture. . Sometimes i'll just use the @vennskincare Age Reversing All in One Concentrate* without any other serums if i'm lazy. It's meant to replace all the serums and essences steps of the routine, and Im still testing it out. Tbh I'm still not seeing a ton of results even though it does keep my face moisturized and plump. Maybe I just don't have the right skin for it since I don't really have fine lines or wrinkles yet. . If I don't use the concentrate, i'll follow up toner with the @iunik_official propolis vitamin Synergy serum* which is now an HG product. It's super soothing and I can feel and see a different in how hydrated my face feels. . My current favorite eye cream is the @danielehenkel_boutique eye luminous eye cream.* I received it in the summer and it was a little too heavy for me then, but it is working wonders for keeping my eye area hydrated now. It is almost a cream consistency rather than a lotion, and the thicker texture really helps moisturize the undereye area. . My moisturizer of choice is now the @drjart ceramidin cream (old packaging) which just feels really nice and soothing. . I'll usually top it all with a face oil, and recently I've been going back to the @caudalie overnight detox oil. Ive use more than half the bottle of this and while I love how light it feels, I'm still not convinced I see any drastic effects of this. It's supposed to help skin with exposure to pollution, uv, and free radicals, which I get from living in the city...buuuut i'm not fully convinced it's done anything except hydrate 😶 . Happy #skincaresunday! Unfortunately not an all glowing routine, but it is a routine that's keeping my skin from being dehydrated. . *pr gifted

@patmcgrathreal bronze seduction is my most treasured purchase of this year. It's just so...beautiful. . I love all my other makeup, too. Don't you worry. . @marcbeauty mocha choco lata - still like this! It's very moisturizing and has a sheer glossy tint. @surrattbeauty blushes have spoiled me. They apply so beautifully. @burberry gold copper, an always favorite for a neutral base.

My favorite time of month, writing about all my trash then throwing it away all at once 😂 . November empties are now up on my blog! If you ever want a quick roundup and reviews of products I use all in one place, these are the posts to read. As always, #linkinbio . It's interesting that a lot of products this month were from the same few brands. @firstaidbeauty, @clinique, and @farmacybeauty have some products that are HGs and that I absolutely love, so it's not surprising I always have something from them in my empties. . We finally made it to Friday and I am more than ready to be done with the week. Im starting my hourly countdown of when I can leave work...

Products from some playing a few days back. I won't even pretend I have the motivation or creativity to do anything fun this week. But the @patmcgrathreal metalmorphosis palette sure is GORGEOUS, and you bet I'll be wearing this for holiday events. . Still in love with @ctilburymakeup flawless filter. Sorry to all I doubted when this first came out because I thought it was totally unnecessary 😑 . @welovecoco / @chanel.beauty memory and the PMG she's heaven are great to go with these. . What do you do when you need inspiration?
