Here’s a fun idea, what if we didn’t get chapped lips this year? Taking better care of my pout the same way I care for my skin is a huge priority going into fall and winter. This year, I’m being proactive and getting into nighttime lip-care, starting with Laneige’s Lip Sleeping Mask. I like the idea of being able to leave the house without some mildly medicinal lip solution in tow, don’t you? Believe me, there’s a reason this product as 130K loves on Sephora.
Amazing Lip Mask
After a lot of listening, learning and reflecting over the past week, I’m eager to enact change—lasting, meaningful change. Becoming a better anti-racist ally means reevaluating how we think, how we act, how we treat each other, and yes—how we shop! This week, while listening to some helpful, eye-opening podcasts (like this one!) I spent some time discovering many incredible black-owned businesses online. Below, I’m sharing eleven products I’ve purchased that I can’t wait to try and of course, I’ll report back on each once they get here! I hope you’ll join me in thinking a little differently about where and who you’re buying from and how our shopping practices can be more inclusive every day.
P.S. I also included several children’s books that I purchased last weekend along with anti-racism resources in this week’s Monday Memo. Click here if you missed it!
