I don't typically like wearing loads of makeup, but I still like a little concealer and definition of my natural features. These products work well with my sensitive skin, and they're not too pigmented. These are the “bare bones” for any well assorted makeup bag!

My favorite time of year is choosing a new planner notebook! I’m currently on the hunt for a planner that allows enough space for daily notes, but that also provides a month overview and goal setting. Hopefully this is helpful for someone who’s also looking for a 2025 yearly planner!
