Friday Favorites
Welcome back to the blog & happy Friday! Other than it being migraine central for me over here, I’ve had a great week! Today’s post is another Friday Favorites one sharing everything I’ve been loving lately and recommend to you guys including the most amazing setting powder for oily skin, music, TV shows and more!
LORAC Pro Blurring Translucent Loose Powder
First things first, this powder has changed my life. I know that sounds dramatic, but it really is the best one that I’ve ever tried by far. It keeps my skin oil-free for 12+ hours with zero blotting. As someone who’s always had to blot 2 or more times per day, this is a game changer for me! I shared a tutorial on how I bake my concealer/foundation with this powder on my Instagram story a week or two ago, which is now saved on my Beauty highlights on my profile. What’s your favorite setting powder?
Crime TV
This is pretty much a constant for my Friday Favorites posts at this point. I’m always scouring through the depths of YouTube and Netflix for the best true crime shows and documentaries, and here are some of my favorite recent finds. Grab a bag of popcorn, ya’ll!
- Killer in the Family on Netflix
- Deadly Women: HOT In An Instant — Lina’s Heart
- Deadly Women: Poisoned By Love
- Dateline 2018 Unsolved Murders: Daddy Was a Killer
Billie Eilish music
I’d heard of Billie but had never taken the time to look up her music until last week, and now I’m obsessed! Her fashion sense totally throws your off of what you think her music would sound like, and I love the angelic vibes with R&B/rap beats some of her music portrays. Give it a listen! “Bellyache,” “Watch” and “Ocean Eyes” are my favorites right now.
You guys & my blog
I know all bloggers feel down about their rate of growth on their websites and social media sometimes, and that’s a rut I’ve been in and out of this week. Though having followers and readers is not the reason why I started my blog whatsoever (seriously, not even close), I do get down sometimes and I hate myself for it. Life must have known I needed a boost because I was pleasantly surprised by so many sweet messages from you guys and a handful of cool brand collaboration opportunities this week! I wanted to share this experience with you all to let you know you’re not alone if you’re ever feeling down about your work and if you’re passionate about something, keep pushing through on the bad days. You’re doing much better than you think!
