A Love List of Movies, TV Shows, Skincare and More

Time for a love list because we haven’t done one in ages and I felt inclined to share my latest loves! It’s cold, brutally so, and it’s absolutely sit on the couch, snuggle, and watch TV season. I don’t really have enough time to enjoy TV but the weather being so cold lately we’ve definitely carved out an hour or two a night to watch something comforting other than the news daily.

Here’s a few shows and movies that are on my love list.

We re-watched the Full Monty earlier this month and I forgot how much I love it (and how much you need to have subtitles on at some points LOL). It’s been years since I’ve watched it and had a blast re-watching it. I’ve crushed on Robert Carlyle forever and a spell because of that movie. I’ve seen the play, watched the TV series, but the movie remains my favorite. If you love Brit comedies and haven’t seen it I recommend a watch! It’s def on the love list! Such a comfort watch and the soundtrack is Chef’s kiss!

I dunno how but we missed out watching What We Do in the Shadows. My best friend recommended it to us recently and we’re absolutely in lust with it. It’s so stupidly funny not to mention how bad can you be at being a vampire? These four are useless LOL! We’ve been racing through episodes because we’re so curious how it’ll end. Since it’s been pretty brutal I’ve finally convinced my boyfriend to do his daily run inside on the treadmill so while he runs I do my power walk and we get in a few episodes together in the early AM. I’m hoping Nandor and Guillermo become a couple awwwww! This show is on my love list at the moment.

In the beauty world….

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again I can’t live without my Plum Plump Refillable Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer and Plum Plump Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum. I can’t do without this in this weather. This stuff keeps my skin soft, well hydrated, smooth, and flake-free in this cold, cold, cold weather. Please never discontinue this Glow Recipe as I’ll have a fit if you do! As soon as I step out of the shower I apply the serum and right on top of that the moisturizer! It leaves my skin super hydrated all day long and my makeup applies so perfectly thanks to these two! Love list additions for sure!

This is going to be controversial as everyone isn’t a fan of Sheglam but I ended up buying the Crystal Jelly Glaze Stick in every shade and I regret nothing. Oh my god. I was very easily influenced by someone who reviewed this recently on Tiktok and they we’re not kidding when they said these were so sparkly. I love them! They’re a solid stick with a jelly-like consistency that you can apply alone or over your favorite shadow for a sparkly look. I absolutely love using them as a topper! They make my eyeshadow pop!

And last not not lease I love a good novelty purse moment and the Dolls Kill Looking Like A Snack Crossbody Bag I got on sale is SO on my love list at the moment. It just feels like such a cute bag to wear right now with Valentine’s Day upcoming! I dunno I always associate snacks and treats with V-Day and this is just too adorable. Do I need a box of donut shaped purse? Not really. Did I want one? Absolutely. Love list for sure!

I gotta say all the Spring 2025 drugstore makeup picks are absolutely on the love list. Brands have been really releasing some great items the last few weeks! I’m adding the Milani Keep It Full Glossy Plumping Balm and Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint to my love list this month! The balm is a beautiful glossy texture and the skin tint is the perfect swipe, blend, and go foundation!
