The beauty space organization is going slow….
I would love nothing more than to spend hours just tinkering and placing all my favourite things ❤️

Unfortunately I have to do these things like “priorities” 🙄 how inconvenient. It is one of the things I try to make as much time as possible for. It feeds my soul 😇

I think the sign that I won the lottery would just be disappearing into my homegrown Sephora and having a chef and housecleaner to make sure I didn’t die or got smushed under a mountain of palettes 😝 what a pretty way to go though!

Thank you @vichylaboratoires ❤️
I actually really enjoyed this vitamin C serum brightening skin corrector from them! I would repurchase!
My only gripe is the expiry on the label is 2 months from opening… 😒 that’s a lot of wasted product if you listen to those things which I of course didn’t 😆

Moving on to the @timelesshaskin 20% vitamin C ferulic acid vitamin e serum. Word on the beauty streets is that it’s the dupe for the @skinceuticals version which works AMAZEBALLS apparently, but I wouldn’t know because the price point is outrageous. 💸 💸 (this is $37 on Amazon, vs Skinceuticals $230!! For an equivilant 30mls of product) timeless also lists the vitamin c at 20% whereas Skinceuticals is 15%)

Obviously not an exact replica… there’s some ingredient differences but for this price point vs others I’m more than willing to lean this way vs that 😆 apparently their patent has expired so the copycats are rolling in…. So let’s try it! For science! 🧬 🔬

To those who have used the Skinceuticals, tell me… is it as amazing as hyped? And have you tried this one? 👀

Throwback to this look I did during a live YEARS ago. If I remember correctly fionas50life was my partner in crime for that.

Does nobody do lives anymore? Should we bring them back?
If anyone wants to do a live with me where we just talk makeup and fun let me know! I remember it being so fun!

I’m also remembering this look took a long time to get just right as I am no makeup pro, but I was so proud of the results! …. And then I took a shower 🚿 😂

Tell me you love a product without telling me you love a product 😅

Cotton rounds are just cotton rounds… sure…. But damned if these aren’t the softest pillows I’ve ever put on my face. Especially when I’m taking things OFF my face and it needs a little pressure, I will always reach for these. No scratchiness EVER!

If you’ve tried them, you know!
If you haven’t, I highly recommend a trial!

The bin of magical powders 💕

It’s amazing how pigmented powders can make me smile 😊
I can NEVER get myself to declutter as I somehow always come back to them somehow.

Spot any favourites? 👀

A break from all my decluttering and organizing to show you the new carpet I just got 🥹

1) my name is G.I. Jo
2) my quest is to focus on finding my joy and new purpose
3) African or European? 😂

+10 points if you get the movie reference.
It’s a classic ❤️

Life is getting weirder and weirder and chaos is everywhere so do the fun thing 🎉 taken in Ontario, Canada by @glowingintrovert

Tell me honestly guys…. How long have you held onto some of your fragrances?
If it’s out of sight is it out of mind for you too?

So many goodies being found as I’m organizing my things. It’s kinda like Christmas 🎄 🤶🏻

The makeup mess is real 😩
But also satisfying?

Changing up how everything is organized so my most used are just sitting on the table while I figure out the game plan for the rest.

Spot any favourites? 👀
Are you a beautiful slob like me too? Where my people at! 😆

Tell me you worked in finance without telling me you worked in finance 😆

My hair has gotten super long again so I’m back to debating whether I keep it long or chop it all off 💇🏻‍♀️
What do you recommend?

I also love my bangs when they work but they really misbehave ALL THE TIME! I have a fivehead though so not sure I can work without them either 🤷🏻‍♀️

Small appreciation/throwback post for the @lancomeofficial juicy tubes 👄

All the rage for a teenager in the early 2000s. I had one and I savoured and adored it. And I do mean just one because these were expensive and out of my price range 💸

Today they’re still expensive but perhaps I’m just more irresponsible now 🤫 🤣

I wish they were less sticky but is it really a realistic throwback if your hair doesn’t get stuck on your sticky lips sometimes? 🤔 at a minimum it’s holding onto its authenticity

Did you have these back then? What’s your favourite late 90s early 2000s beauty product? I have a few!

As I’m playing more and more in the makeup chair, I need those tried and true supplies!

I love beauty blenders (and still have a couple) but also have a thing about the germs potentially collecting in those things 🦠 so I wash regularly and still throw away after what feels like a short amount of time.

Beauty blenders are so expensive though!
Picked up these which are actually super soft and I think will do just as good.
They were $8 each so well worth the try.

Also love the larger blenders in an egg carton vibe. I’ll be keeping this for the next round of sponges for sure.

Mini sponges are from @musthavebeautyofficial

Larger sponges are from Love Beauty NYC

Picked up on a random visit to @gianttigerstore

But first…. Gotta wash em. 😩

Do you wash your sponges before first use or do you just raw dog it? And as a follow on… do you wash your clothes before first wear or nah? I’ve heard I can be a little overkill and it’s not that big a deal 😆
