What’s the Beauty Ritual You Miss the Most That COVID Took Away From You?

Last year was the year of self care! Everyone was really into taking care of their skin, their minds, their bodies! Some of us learned to cook, some of sat on the couch to watch our favorite Netflix shows to heal our minds and keep us from watching too much news, some of us took better care of our skin, some of us took long baths and put masks in our hair, some of us decided to walk around the house with a full face of makeup on, some of us just laid in bed and let a good book carry us away from the drama. Whatever way you healed yourself and took care of yourself last year I hope you found comfort in it and it eased your worries and relaxed your mind.

I definitely did a lot of face masks, I definitely walked around the house with red lipstick on, I definitely sat on the couch with excessive amounts of peach highlighter to watch TV (Pedro enjoyed it), I did learn to cook, I did read, I did take long baths, and I did discover the joys of different hair styles especially different braids! I did all these things and it was glorious. COVID may have gotten us all down in the dumps at times but it also gave us a much needed break from the world and other people and allowed us to learn new things, it taught how to enjoy the little things in life, and maybe it brought some of us closer together with our partners, boyfriends, girlfriends, siblings, kids, husbands, wives, etc…!

BUT….

It took some things away from us too. Somethings we miss. Like going to the movies, having Sunday brunch with our friends, walking around our favorite store without feeling stressed about being so close to strangers, and of course, it took some beauty rituals away from us too.

What beauty ritual do you miss the most that COVID took away from you?

Lush Mamma Mia Body Spray Brings Back Fond Silky Underwear Vibes

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.
5 stars out of 5

Lush Mama Mia Body Spray is one of several new body fragrances that launched for Spring 2021 on Lush’s US site. These released in Lush UK in December and they are just starting to roll out in stores here and of course, online. I am so glad I did a blind buy of Mamma Mia because it brings me back to the day that I brought some of my first Lush products 10 plus years ago and Silky Underwear Dusting Powder happened to be one of those products. I collect old Victorian powder jars and vanity sets and I always felt so special pouring Silky Underwear into some of my powder jars! It made me feel so fancy. To this day I keep several body powder jars on my vanity to dust on and yes, of course, I always pour out my Guerlain Shalimar Perfumed Dusting Powder into a pretty powder jar.

Mamma Mia is contains notes of vanilla, bergamot, and rosewood which are obviously nothing like those of Silky Underwear but it does smell like a lighter version of it!

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.
4 stars out of 5

Milani Peach Make It Last Setting Spray is a new peach scented makeup setting spray that’s available with a new Fruit Fetish Spring 2021 Collection that recently became available at Walgreens. As you know Milani Fruit Fresh Make It Last Setting Spray originally launched with the Summer 2020 Collection in three fragrances. I was actually a little disappointed with the fragrance from the last launch as it was a bit weak but I read peach scented and I needed it. There’s also a Milani Cherry Make It Last Setting Spray but the Peach called me!
