Julia — Wed, 26 Jun 2019 09:00:23 +0000

Have you heard of murumuru butter? I recently heard of it this past winter when searching for rich, hydrating ingredients for skin creams, but outside of that personal quest, I was surprised to see how many products it’s actually in! Despite not having heard of it, murumuru butter can be found in more everyday products […]

Your Skin & Emotions

Julia — Mon, 10 Jun 2019 12:00:39 +0000

Skin & emotions: the two are more connected than most of us care to admit. I first realized this when I was in an incredibly stressful job and my acne was off the charts. During that time, my skin became overly sensitive and reactive (in part due to products I was using from said job) […]

Ingredient Focus: Talc

When you think of talc, you may just think of baby powder, but did you know it’s actually used in many more products than that? Look in your makeup bag…do you use: eyeshadow? setting powder (loose or pressed)? blush? bronzer? highlight? Most pressed cosmetic powders contain talc, although thankfully as technology and formulas have modernized, […]

A Brief Introduction to Face Mapping

Julia — Wed, 01 May 2019 14:00:49 +0000

I didn’t start to take a real interest in my overall well-being until college – there’s nothing quite like being on your own to realize what you are putting on your skin and in your body affects how your skin looks ??‍♀️ Realizing the connection my own actions had to my skin was pivotal: I […]

Beautiful Skin Requires Consistency

Julia — Thu, 18 Apr 2019 14:00:15 +0000

It took me a loooong time to realize the power of consistency, commitment and routines. I hit puberty at the super-not-ready-for-it age of 10 – I had no idea wtf was going on, let alone know about a beauty routine. My skin was all over the place with these newfound hormones – scalp issues came into play, […]

Smoking is bad (for your skin) m’kay?

Julia — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 15:00:00 +0000

Since I quit my brief stint as a cigarette smoker in college, I saw a near-immediate difference in my skin. I know this may sound oddly specific, but I was typically a 4-5 cigarette-a-day, any more and I would feel nauseous. The 3 years I smoked, I definitely noticed differences in my skin: dryness, clogged […]

Sleep ? My #1 anti-aging tip for everyone this weekend is to get more Zzz’s. I know we had a super short work week and all, but short work week = me off my sleep schedule game like woah. Anyone with me there? Whenever you’re off your normal sleep schedule, do you notice how much […]

What is Sensitive Skin?

If you’ve ever had a reaction after applying a new foundation, moisturizer, setting powder or SPF, you may have wondered if you have sensitive skin. What is “sensitive skin”? “Sensitive skin” isn’t a medical term, but more of a blanket term that encompasses a lot of different things for different people. Sensitive skin is categorized […]

How-to: Fixing Broken/Cracked Eyeshadow

Julia — Mon, 31 Mar 2014 09:00:36 +0000

It’s a typical Monday morning: you’re running late because you couldn’t drag yourself out of bed on time. After you haphazardly throw an outfit together, you’re frantically trying to “put your face on” in the bathroom. One subtle elbow movement and you’re watching your favorite pressed powder falling towards the tile floor in slow-mo. Metallic […]
