Sephora

@Mellmars1185 @QueenMarceline @lnum I'll post the updated thread tomorrow!! Thanks for chiming in!

@CookieGirl1 😂🤣 I have zero reasons to dress up these days so the hardware store counts as an evening out.

@KeeRee are there any specific brushes/brush brands that you're wanting (Luckybag or other)?

I've liked several Elemis products but I finally tried the Elemis Pro Collagen Cleansing Balm and HATED IT. Thankfully I only had a mini but it felt like it took foreeeeever to get through it. It felt too thick and heavy, left a residue that I had to really work to remove, didn't remove my makeup as easily as I would have liked, and the smell was obnoxious. It's so popular with so many people but I have no idea why...

@missjeanie, yes, those tube keys really come in handy - hand cream, hair care and makeup products, toothpaste, etc. I have one from a L’Occitane set, and I just noticed that Sephora has put one out as well. SEPHORA COLLECTION Tube Key and Bottle Scraper Set

Heh, I'm sure you're the worst @Ispend2much6 😂

What? Like, how?

Week 3 (1/19 – 1/25) – Improving your sleep routine 😴 In order to get a better sleep routine I want to make better choices throughout the day. Admittedly, I'm a coffee lover-I just love the taste. Can't imagine a morning without downing 1-2 cups and then drinking more throughout the day and even another cup or two at night 👀. It's a terrible habit and it's to the point where I barely have any caffeine effects from coffee that doesn't have espresso in it. I want to commit to not drinking any coffee past 8pm. I'm usually a night owl and this is coupled with terrible insomnia, so I really don't need any extra kick (even if the caffeine only has little effects). There's times realistically where at 7pm I'm going to need a bit of a pick me up to get through some errands/chores and I don't want to crash, which brings me to my next point... I really want to stop napping throughout the later afternoon/day. I have this terrible habit of napping for 1-3 hours whenever I'm very tired. Sometimes I go down for a nap at 7pm and wake up refreshed at 10-11pm and then end up staying up until 3-4am only to get an hour or two of sleep before a full day of work... and the cycle continues. It's truly awful... so I want to commit to forcing myself to not take sporadic naps during the day and go to bed at an earlier time. If I'm tired at 7pm, grab a coffee, do some chores (keep moving) and get ready for a bubble bath/sleep routine so I can be in bed by 10-11pm, midnight at the absolute latest. The last thing I want to commit to is taking more baths, they really help me relax before bed. This especially is true when I use oils and epsom salts within my bath. Not only this, it helps my back muscles relax as well which is super helpful to avoid tossing and turning throughout the night. I want to afford myself a nice 45-60 minutes during the night to do my skin care routine, take a relaxing bubble bath and get in some comfy pajamas. Ideally I'd leave myself an hour to get to put on a show to enjoy before bed. 🙂 (TV always puts me to sleep, oddly enough.)

@TraceyEB Eye look is gorgeous, that palette looks like it could be an everyday go to for so many people. And the cheek suits you so nicely... .but dang, your skin looks amazing and what is your lip??? Gorgeous look.
