I'm absolutely a minimalist when it comes to makeup (foundation, setting powder + spray, eyebrow pomade, and eyeliner - one of each and it never changes). But dresses are my weakness, and I saw such much of myself in that area when reading your reflections. I've started doing similar exercises to yours whenever I'm tempted to buy one that's very same-but-different to the ones I already own.

I do this with dresses too! Specifically shirt dresses in blue, black, white, or striped in any variation of those colors. What's your favorite eyebrow pomade? I'm still looking for The One.

Glossier Boy Brow. I'd previously tried pencils and ended up looking like Groucho Marx 😂 I've got dark but patchy eyebrows and they fill them in well while looking natural.

I used that product years ago and I think it's time to return - it's the best applicator for thick brows I've ever tried!

You are the sweetest! Thank you for including my post :)

I am definitely a minimalist when it comes to lip color, as I have one tinted chapstick and that is only worn about twice a year 😂

Aquaphor! But I don't count that as a beauty product lol (probably because it's not 😂)

Aquaphor is a secret weapon! I cover my face in it at night during the coldest months.
