2021 Trends: Minimalist Skin Care + Beauty

Consumers are understanding environmental impact, the risk of cheap toxic ingredients, and overall wanting to cut down on overwhelming products, and expenses. Also, COVID-19, has made it more difficult to shop, get treatments - so an at-home D.I.Y. approach seems to be necessary.

Beauty DIY: Ultra-Moisturizing Lip Tint
Those who know me well know that I'm a skincare and lip product fanatic. I started my skincare routine around 12 or 13 years old -- my first skincare product was around 6 actually, my grandma bought me a toy to play with and it actually has skincare inside. My first lip product was a Nivea Lipbalm when I was around 7 or 8 years old. My first actual colour lip product was a Cover Girl Lip Gloss in a bubblegum colour when I was around 14 years old, it was a gift from an aunt.

How to Trick People into Thinking that you have Lash Extensions
This is my experience with lash extensions followed by my current falsies lash routine. I was sixteen when lash extensions started becoming the next big thing. As a high schooler who was insecure about having stubby lashes that stuck straight down, I had to have them. I drove myself to the local lash studio and signed a contract to pay for a year’s worth of lash extensions (no commitment issues with regard to eyelashes!!). The first few months were euphoria. I was in love. My camera roll was full of selfies of me thinking I looked so amazing with these new lushious lashes. However, as all good things come to an end, the honeymoon phase between my lash extensions and I came to a halt.
