Carte de Mode

Today’s makeup was inspired by a look I spotted in a magazine, and honestly sometimes old-school inspiration just hits differently. 💄✨

Also… can we talk about how invested I am in Bunnie and Jelly Roll’s “divorce” rumours when the reality is we know absolutely nothing about these people’s real lives? 😂 It’s wild how social media makes us feel like we know celebrities personally.

Anyone else catch themselves way too emotionally invested in celebrity stories? 🤣

I popped into the MAC store today and wow… it brought back so many memories. There’s something about being surrounded by all the products, the energy, and the excitement that made me realize how much I truly miss my time there. Some jobs become more than just work — they become part of a chapter of your life you’ll always look back on fondly. ❤️

Have you ever gone somewhere and instantly felt nostalgic for a period of your life?

Busy day today… one of those days where nothing seems to flow and every little thing takes twice as long. 😅

But somehow ending up at Dollarama instantly improves my mood. I swear I have an obsession with these types of stores… Dollarama, Winners, Marshalls, HomeSense. I can wander around for way too long and always find something I didn’t know I needed. 😂

Anyone else find these stores oddly therapeutic after a chaotic day?

Little makeup tricks and now getting ready for my hair appointment 💄💇‍♀️✨

What’s one makeup trick you swear by?

One of those sleepless nights where my mind decided to host a rave at 3 a.m. 🫠✨

Instead of letting it take over my whole day, I laced up my shoes and went for a walk before my Sephora shift. Fresh air, movement, and a little quiet time can make such a difference when your thoughts are running a marathon.

Some days it’s not about feeling amazing… it’s just about doing one small thing to feel a little better. 💕

What do you do to reset after a night of overthinking and little sleep?

Today’s makeup look was blue on blue on blue… basically one step away from joining the Smurfs. 💙😂

Blue eyes, blue vibes, blue everything. Sometimes you just have to ignore the rules and have fun with makeup!

Would you ever wear an all-blue makeup look, or is blue a shade you avoid?

This morning I tried a new physio, and wow… absolutely incredible. 💙

For the first time in a while, I left an appointment feeling heard, understood, and most importantly, hopeful. It’s amazing how much of a difference the right person can make when you’re dealing with pain or physical challenges.

I know I still have work ahead of me, but today felt like a step in the right direction, and that feeling is priceless.

Have you ever had a healthcare professional make such a positive impact that it completely changed your outlook?

Spent some time today catching up on paperwork and all those little things that seem to pile up when life gets busy. 📋✨

A little life update: things have been moving at full speed lately, and while I love staying busy, I’m learning the importance of slowing down long enough to get organized and reset. Sometimes the most productive days aren’t the most exciting ones!

How do you stay on top of paperwork, appointments, and all the day-to-day life admin?

Second and final makeup appointment of the day, then it’s time for a little nail appointment self-care 💄💅

The rain may be falling, but I’m determined to make the most of this Saturday anyway. A little beauty, a little pampering, and hopefully a lot of good vibes!

What’s your favorite way to turn a rainy day into a good day? ☔️✨
