Beauty Bits

Jones Road Beauty is a relatively newer beauty brand founded by the one and only makeup artist Bobbi Brown. She is actually no longer affiliated with her namesake brand and launched this new line a few years ago.

I’ve slowly over the past year been experimenting more with Korean beauty specifically skincare because the feedback from those using it is always amazing. From the effectiveness to the unique textures to the affordable price points, Korean skincare is truly on another level.

Lip balms and especially tinted lip balms are incredibly popular right now and as someone who has a huge weakness for lip products (and has always had a big lip balm collection), this makes me so happy. LOL The Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balms are one of the most popular formulas on the market and for good reason.

My skincare routine is my favorite part of the day – both morning and evening. I love the ritual of it, the process and of course the results.

If there is one thing I absolutely love, it’s trying ALL the beauty and skincare products, devices and treatments. It’s my own form of self care and brings me so much joy to do.

I long for the days that I used to just lay my head down and fall asleep in a matter of minutes. No tossing and turning for hours. No waking up multiple times throughout the night.

If there is one thing about me, I LOVE to try all the beauty and spa treatments, wellness supplements, basically anything to make me feel good. LOL And if I can do them at home, that is even better.

As a former neutral lip loyalist, I am shocked at how my taste and lip color preferences have done a near 180. If you follow me on social media, you know I have spoken a lot recently about how a brighter lip tends to look better on me as I have gotten older.

One of the questions I get asked the most when it comes to my makeup tutorials is “what makeup brushes do you use?”. I have been working in the beauty business in some form for nearly 25 years, so I have amassed quite a few makeup brushes and use a variety of ones.

Moisturizing the skin is one of the most important parts of my skincare routine. Many people focus on all the targeted ingredients designed to help treat various concerns, but forget about protecting and strengthening the skin barrier by under a proper moisturizer.
