- No Base: This was the year of “No-Foundation”! I couldn’t muster up the energy to apply foundation using a tool (read: Brush/Beautyblender🌰). Also, having a baby means, she is constantly touching my face and foundation is definitely not baby-friendly.
- Primer Love: I have been using a whole lotta primer to give my sleep-deprived, mommy-face “a glow”. I alternate between the Too Faced Hangover Rx Primer and Laura Mercier Radiance primers.
- Bright Lips: To make up for the lack of drama on the eyes, I have switched to brightER lipsticks this year. 2018 was the year, I could comfortably rock my MAC Russian Red lipstick without giving a care in the world on what people thought of me.
- Purge: This is one of the most unfortunate events of 2018. I had to purge a ton of eyeshadow palettes and lipstick owing to a fungal attack. I shifted my base, and with the new arrangement came the BIG fungal attack. I had to discard, Lorac Mega Pro, UD Naked 1, Zoeva Caramel Melange, MUFE lipstick, and so on!
- Low Buy: Usually, I hit VIB by mid of the year. However, this year was a bit of a struggle. I purchased only things that were absolutely necessary, but I did make some mindless purchase at the end of the year just to qualify for 2019 VIB. Other than that, I was pretty much on Santa’s good books this year.
- Curly Girl Method aka CGM: I am a late entrant into the curly hair community. I was so insecure about my hair growing up; It had a mind of its own, a spirit like mine, untameable. I have a combination of 2b-2c hair, and I have slowly switched to CGM. The side effect, however, is that I never knew CGM was so much hard work and requires so many products.
