Winter face triage, chatbot college counselors, Minnesota mutual aid, Dior fever, and period scooping (no).
Three things making my parched, winter face look alive. 1. 2. 3.
Or just skip it all and put this on the high points of your face. #inwhoorlwetrust
Minnesota needs your help! If you want to donate, this is an immensely helpful website.
Speaking of, for those of you who purchased the Dieux Skin moisturizer on Tuesday, my affiliate revenue was $1,600 and I donated 100% of it to the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund. Thank you!

some great links, always inspired by odds and ends but $680 for sandals and $800 for black pants - can't relate...i feel like everything is all about consumerism. Im going through it...
Thank you so much for sharing the link to Minnesota resources. As a Minnesotan, we are committed to helping our community and were going on, like you do, shouldering that responsibility by ourselves within our community. When people starting joining in nation and world wide to help, I can’t tell you what that meant and means. Thank you for helping us keep our communities safe and fed.
