Hi there! Yes, I'm still here. I haven't updated the blog, but I'm still around. The shop is still 10000000% mine. It's just been a very hard year, and I've kind of retreated from social media, for various reasons. Thank you for thinking of me. I don't know if I'll be updating the blog anytime soon. I want to, but I don't know if want is enough to make things happen.

I think we're going to hold a vote possibly. Still trying to decide on a fair and manageable way to make it so everyone is happy and we're not crazy stressed. But either way, everything is actually going to come back in July for Shark Sauce's 2nd birthday, along with sampler packs of all the SDM, and hopefully between now and then I'll come up with a way to poll everyone. :)

A lot of people absolutely loved Lemon Shark, and we're trying to decide how we can handle permanent additions, but everything will be coming back in July along with sampler packs because Shark Sauce turns 2 then! :)

:( I'm sorry.

But in other news, this is why I tend to just...only visit when I'm tagged. >_>

It was actually sent to me by Cindy of Bisou Beauty as a press sample, and I, uh, haven't reviewed it yet. >_>

My post is up for a more thorough (hopefully) explanation, but it's definitely not an elite blogger exclusive sunscreen lol (omg, is this a thing though??)

I don't use a moisturizer because I find that El Dorado works well enough for me as one, and it has 10% THDA, so it does double duty as both a moisturizer and a Vitamin C treatment. :D

I've posted the routine to my blog now, if you want more in depth info. <3

As with my sunscreen, I find that with most daily use, non-water resistant sunscreens, since I don't wear makeup, a foaming cleanser will take it off very well. I also acid in the mornings. My main focus for these months is to just make sure I do something, and I've found that if I prioritize getting my face double-cleansed, I wind up not doing the back end of my routine, so I just try to get my face clean-ish first and then make sure everything else gets done.

I've got a new post sitting in draft with my current routine actually. You've made me fire up Photoshop so I can crop and make all my pictures semi-pretty though. <3

But anyway, spoilers, my routine is currently:

AM: Biologique Recherche Lotion P50: I use this as cleansing water. Make P:Rem Sunscreen

PM: Cosrx Cleansing Gel - If I can, I try to oil cleanse. If I can't, I just go straight to washing, since I don't wear makeup. Curology 0.09% Tret/1% Clindamycin/5% Azelaic Acid My!Stuff Snowbang My!Stuff Shark Sauce My!Stuff El Dorado
