This week I consulted for a beauty brand, coached an aspiring freelance writer, and filed pieces for Westchester Magazine, Westchester Home Magazine, and The Rye Record — my very local newspaper. I've been joking that my bylines are getting so hyper-local, we'll have our own household magazine soon. Which, come to think of it... isn't that exactly what this newsletter is?
Next week, we’ll get into Mother’s Day gifts (here’s something customizable and gorgeous and my favorite Japandi Knot Bag and the best night serum if you want to get on that early).
The big news of this week: The Sephora sale is here and it ends Monday. Here are my picks.
The spring red lip that’s the ideal pop of color — worth every penny, but even better on sale.
A silk pillowcase is a must. A scalloped silk pillowcase is a splurge. The discount makes it a yes.
My favorite haircare trio for dry, colored, or damaged hair is already priced well, and the added discount makes it a no-brainer.
A bright cheek is non-negotiable for warmer weather. My pick is this one in the ideal pink tint.
Cyklar bergamot body wash is verdant perfection — it makes even my most rushed showers feel like a mini spa moment.
Anastasia’s new brow pencil has a dry formula, which is key for drawing realistic vertical hair strokes near the front of the brow.
This dry shampoo is an oxymoron: it goes on wet, but somehow doesn’t revert to my my naturally curly texture when I brush it out. Still haven’t figured out how. Don’t care.
put me onto these bronzing drops in Soleil Parfait 2, and she was right. The easiest, most flattering, perfectly matte liquid bronzer I’ve tried. I’m using it on my cheeks and eyes and not looking back.
