Happy Friday everyone! I can’t believe it’s already August! There’s something about a new month that’s always exciting, and generally August is one of my favorite months for travel. But this year is obviously very different. Quarantine is growing old but I’m a firm believer the safest way to make our way through this is to be vigilant about social distancing, masks etc.
Here are a few things that have been bringing me some happiness despite being stuck at home.
I’ve mentioned that I’ve struggled with cystic acne before, and few things help. I started taking these vitamins a few months ago and have noticed a major difference in my skin, both in clarity & texture and reduction in breakouts (only a few minor blemishes around that time of the month). I’m on my third bottle!

I ordered this gorgeous palette from Violet Grey & wasn’t disappointed! The formula is perfect, super blendable but still pigmented. The color range is perfect for summer & cooler months as there are some coral and fuschia tones, as well as a deep red & a muted rose color.

I was lucky enough to be gifted this beautiful candle from Merchants of Beauty and am obsessed. I love anything citrus and the “Flow & Glow” scent is the perfect, light & bright fragrance for home!

I listened to this as an audiobook and absolutely loved it. The author is a protege of Roxanne Gay, and while the main character struggles with an eating disorder, the book is about so much more than just that.

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend <3
