3 Product Rule: Finding the Beauty Middle Ground

By -
I am sick and tired of being bombarded by beauty products. Buff this, dye that... it gets exhausting and I want out of the game. Not completely, of course. I don't want to be confused with my neighbor's basset hound. So, I have decided to simplify. Unless it is a formal event or a hot date, I now use the 3 product rule. A foundation/powder combo to lighten my under eye and smooth out an oily forehead, mascara, and a lip stain. Bam, done. My skin can breathe, I save 30 minutes a day, and I still look presentable. Hi world, there is a middle ground!

PS- I'm not saying it HAS to be these three products, they're just what I happen to be using today. Do you have any suggestions?

A new decade is on the horizon. That means new trends, new technology, new relationships, and new goals. As I approach a this fresh era, I want to have focus. The 2010s were a wild ride for everyone, David Bowie left us and Russia changed the face of Western Democracy. Minimalism and gentrification altered American culture. We became more individualized yet less recognizable as a society. In the Roaring 20s Take Two, I think we should all come together stronger and more cohesive. Let us love each other and appreciate our differences and lift each other up. Yet, we can only appreciate our place in the puzzle if we understand ourselves. Take care of our own space and do what we can. Ground ourselves and rebuild with focus. In order to do this, I have set a goal of 20 things I want to accomplish in the 20s. 20 things that will be kinder to myself and allow me to be kinder to others. 20 things that will bring stability and strength to my mental foundation. As a note, I left out publishin...
