It's almost here: the end of 2020! I'm as excited as all of you to celebrate a new year with new potential and possibilities. I'm also anxious to leave all the not-so-good things that have happened behind and start anew. Here's a list of a few things I loved this year.
- I finally feel pretty good about my skincare routines and have *tried* to be as consistent as I can this year
- Morning routine
- Wash face with water (sometimes less is better)
- Neutrogena Hydro Boost Eye Cream
- Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel with SPF 15
- Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask in Vanilla
- Night routine
- My makeup routine has been pretty much the same throughout the entire year consisting of:
- NYX Bare with Me Multitasking Spray (before and after makeup or to refresh throughout the day!)
- Tarte Shape Tape Concealer (Medium)
- KVD Lock-It Setting Powder
- NYX Ombre Blush
- Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara to tame my eyebrows
- Loreal mascaras: Air Volume Mega Mascara and/or Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara
- The lipsticks that have proved themselves to be the best when it comes to staying on despite mask use are the Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lip Color. I'm currently obsessed with the shade Ground-Breaker!
- As for nails, I'm obsessed with different shades per nail as seen on Pinterest. Check out my board here for inspiration.
- The best relationship I had this year is with my Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer Hot Air Brush! I have long hair and used to hate blow drying my hair because it would take forever. Now I can dry my hair in 15-20min, boom!
- I have been loving layered necklaces, as evidenced in my photos from Cabo San Lucas. Check out these brands: Viviana D' Ontanon, Mejuri.
- I find it so surreal that face masks are now a part of our daily lives. I personally have mine made by a staff member at the hospital who makes them with the best fit for me but I wanted to share these mask chains (4-pack for $10!) which are perfect for keeping your mask safe while you take them off for eating, photos, etc.
- As a surgery resident I spend the vast majority of my time in scrubs and have grown quite a FIGS collections this year. Use this link for $20 off!
- I discovered the magic of cheaper eyeglasses this year! I love the collection Hilary Duff has made with Muse for GlassesUSA.com! I mean, who doesn't want a pair of glasses designed by THE Lizzie McGuire?
- The best thing I did this year was take a break from it all and head over to Cabo San Lucas. See my whole post on the trip, including outfit information, here.
- This year I also took a deep look into my relationship with God. I saw that there was still so much work to be done there and so much work to be done in myself as a person. I subscribed to She Reads Truth and have honestly felt so much closer to Him. I'm currently reading the Advent Study Book and highly recommend! Check out their subscription box here.
- Since COVID-19, gyms have been closed so I've relied heavily on my Sweat subscription to keep me in shape! It offers simple workouts that can be done at home with little to no equipment.
- I think we all hit Netflix hard this year! I binged watched the following shows:
- The Crown (5/5 ⭐)
- The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Amazon Prime Video) (5/5 ⭐)
- Money Heist (5/5 ⭐)
- Emily in Paris (4/5 ⭐)
- Grace and Frankie (5/5 ⭐)
- Monk (Amazon Prime Video) (5/5 ⭐)
- Great British Baking Show (5/5 ⭐)
- The Duchess (2/5 ⭐)
- Schitt's Creek (4/5 ⭐)
- Man with a Plan (4/5 ⭐)
- Dream Home Makeover (5/5 ⭐)
- Get Organized with The Home Edit (3/5 ⭐)
- Queer Eye (5/5 ⭐)
- Cheer (4/5 ⭐)
- Guilty pleasures: Selling Sunset, Are You the One?, Love is Blind
- Loved these movies:
- Holidate (4/5 ⭐)
- Feel the Beat (4/5 ⭐)
- Life Itself (Amazon Prime Video) (3/5 ⭐)
- Enola Holmes (4/5 ⭐)
- Eurovision (4/5 ⭐)
- The Croods: A New Age: saw this at my first ever drive-in theater and loved it! (5/5 ⭐)
- Also enjoyed the following books:
- The Single Woman: Life, Love, and a Dash of Sass: if you're new to the single life this book is for you. Don't let the title or cover push you away, it's full of amazing insight!
- All three collections of poems by Rupi Kaur
Let me know some of your favorites so I too can become obsessed!
Con amor,
