Spring Cleaning Your Beauty Stash

Even though it’s barely 16 degrees outside and a winter storm warning is out, most of my spring cleaning is finally done.

A fun color seems like something that’d…

Let’s talk acne: my skincare routine on Accutane, mid-treatment thoughts + my results so far

skincare routine on Accutane

Okay, just so you know, this is going to be a l-o-n-g read. Also, if you’re not suffering from acne, you probably won’t find this post very interesting. Just a heads-up. This is my 1st Accutane post, to see an update, check out this post.  Most of you guys know that I’ve been suffering from acne for pretty much as long as I remember. I’d only go through a few weeks of completely clear skin at a time. First world…
