What’s One Thing in Your Makeup Bag Right Now That You Would Enthusiastically Recommend to Anyone and Everyone?



I gotta say that I pretty much love EVERYTHING I have in my makeup bag at the moment. There is absolutely nothing in there that I have “meh” feelings about, which I’m just now realizing is kind of awesome.
All this to say that it’s really, really hard to pick just one thing, so here’s two things!
The first would be Rare Beauty Perfect Strokes Universal Mascara. It’s a beautiful, lightweight mascara that resists smudging and flaking, holds the curl and adds just the perfect amount of length and volume. It’s $20, which I feel is pretty reasonable considering a lot of drugstore mascaras are in the $14 price range and the ones at Sephora seem to hover at about $30.
The second item is the $26 mini version of Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Petal, a dusty nude rose cream blush. Goodness gracious, it’s so, so good. It blends like a dream, looks natural on my skin and unlike some cream blushes that disappear in an hour or so, this one lasts. I can put it on first thing in the morning before I leave for work, and it’s still on my cheeks in the afternoon. I like to wear it as a lipstick, too.

I can’t wait to hear your answer!

P.S. Happy Caturday! I woke up this morning to a gloriously overcast sky and cool weather. It’s a relief to get a break from the heat. Did you have a good week? I hope so. I realized this week that summer break, at least for Connor’s school, will be over soon. I only have three full weeks with her before she starts third grade. It’s been a challenge balancing work, camps and childcare this summer, but now I’m already feeling that bittersweetness that comes ‘round in August. Anyway, have a good rest of your Saturday. What are your plans today?

We will be happy to hear your thoughts
