Saturday Surfing, May 26th, 2022 - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Happy Caturday, fabulous! ? I hope you slept well. If I oasis't thanked yous for the encouragement in the pre-pregnancy dress post a few weeks ago, thank you very much! Your suggestions were very helpful. I actually, actually needed the push.

I actually *finally* got some bottoms that fit me properly, and I've come to the realization that I'm at present a better fit for "curvy" pants, not merely because of how my body changed since the babe, but besides considering I've been doing lots of squats since last twelvemonth, so I have more than muscle on my booty and thighs. 'Tis a proficient — no, a GREAT — thing!

And then, I am now the happy possessor of a pair of these J. Crew shorts, which just happen to be on killer sale at the moment using promo code GETAWAY.

The High-rise denim short in Brixton launder, originally $79.50, are on sale for $42 through May 28. The denim feels soft and structured, and they're short-but-non-likewise short.

I already love 'em. In fact, I'm finally ditching the two pairs of ill-fitting denim booty shorts I've worn for the concluding two summers.

Before the sale ends in a couple days, I as well want to catch a pair of these cute 3″ olive shorts with a scalloped hem (cute touch!). They're $32 with the same GETAWAY lawmaking, downwards from $59.50.

I figure, the olive is neutral, and so they should get with nigh everything.

Thank you lot again for the encouragement. Now, onward to today'south Saturday Surfing…

• You might observe something a little different now when you go shopping for beauty products at large department stores like Nordstrom and Saks. To lure more shoppers…many of the big stores are phasing out traditional single-brand counters and replacing them with a more Sephora-like open floor program, with more than and more products from under-the-radar brands.

  Information technology's kinda like if someone were to drop a giant SpaceNK into a Nordies.

• Sephora will soon offer new classes for transgender folks wanting to learn more nigh makeup. Their 90-minute "Assuming Dazzler for the Transgender Community" classes start in June and will cover makeup products and application techniques. Absurd!

• I really promise that Meghan Markle'south purple wedding makeup volition get-go a trend toward more approachable makeup looks, and this author thinks it'due south going to have long-term effects on the scene.

  "Despite the seeming simplicity of Markle'southward makeup," Cheryl Wischhover writes, "information technology might be poised to take a radical outcome on beauty trends. In the world of makeup right now, the 2 near pop trends fall on opposite and extreme ends of an aesthetic continuum. On 1 end, y'all have what is known in Instagram makeup colloquial equally 'glam.' On the other, there is 'no-makeup makeup.' Markle came down conspicuously on the 'no-makeup makeup' side. Information technology'due south a big deal that she made such a argument publicly because the beauty world is at a tipping indicate, with the button and pull of more than versus less makeup bubbling up in popular civilization."

• I want to bank check out all 15 of these makeup brands, all of which are made for deeper skintones *and* owned by women of color.

OK, someone'southward coffee needs a refill! ☕☺️ Have a great balance of your day and a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. Let me know what you're up to.
