I’ve Got a Feline – Pure Smile Cat Art Sheet Mask Will You Be a Cat?

I was at Artland in San Gabriel, CA when I was confronted by an existential question of epic proportions: “Will You Be A Cat?”


“Of COURSE!” I said to no one. And I picked up this mask to fulfill my destiny.

🍹🌴 First sunny weekend in a loooong time. So here’s a rundown on some new *FOLDING* sunglasses (modeled by Bradish Pitt). I’ve been obsessed with folding ones ever since seeing Renee with folding Ray-Ban Wayfarers. Naturally I stalked her style and bought the same pair. Then I spotted @roaveyewear: way thinner and lighter than Ray-Bans. I picked up the style Scarlett in black with grapefruit mirrored lenses ($175). Here’s why they’re replacing my folding Ray-Bans ($154) and how they compare: . 😎 Crazy light and flat. While made of stainless steel, they are slightly bendable and feel delicate. The mirror lenses are also prone to smudges. Definitely keeping them in their silicone case, whereas the Ray-Bans survived jostling in my purse without a case for years. . 😎 For low nose bridges like mine, Scarlett has flexible silicone nose pads and sits off my cheeks. (ROAV FAQs recommends certain styles for low nose bridges.) Ray-Bans rest on my cheek *sigh*, which I deal with because of their extreme portability. . 😎 Similar in dimensions, but obviously the cat-eye shape is very different from the classic Wayfarer. Scarlett is 58-18-145; Wayfarer 50-22-140. . 😎 While both are spendy, you can find discount codes and the Ray-Ban site has been 30% off during the lockdown. . 😎 Btw, I’ve also tried @foldies in a style very similar to the Ray-Bans but returned them. They were slightly too big on my face (the style is unisex) and have plastic hinges/connections (Wayfarers have metal), making the folding action less smooth. That said, they’re also much cheaper ($69), making them a good alternative to Wayfarers if they actually fit your face. . 😎 Also check out @shopcovry for low nose bridges. I ended up not using mine much because they didn’t fold (meaning I would have needed a bigger purse just so I could carry them around) and, while they do indeed sit off my cheek, they sit farther off in front of my face than Scarlett does.
Angela’s quaran-clean skincare routine, minus cleansers and SPF (optional anyway when wfm, much like pants👖 and clean hair 🧖🏻‍♀️). Inadvertently (subconsciously?) been reaching for all my clinical, no-nonsense stuphs. (Although the NIOD CAIS Serum and Lipid *are* ✨brilliantly blue and joyful 💙. The Ordinary Buffet + Copper Peptides is also blue, but the thicker gel consistency has been relegated to neck only.) . Full list: @peterthomasrothofficial PRO Strength Niacinamide Discoloration Treatment (15%!) 🧪 @deciem NIOD CAIS Serum, Lipid, and MMHC 🦠 @deciem The Ordinary Buffet + Copper Peptides 🩺 @paulaschoice Resist Anti-aging Eye Gel. #beautyandthecat #niod #copperpeptides #paulaschoice #peterthomasroth #theordinary
Angela’s #Sephora sale picks (code “SPRINGSAVE”), clockwise from top left: 💸 @laneige_us Cream Skin - As a hand moisturizer, effective alone or under hand cream now that we’re frequently handwashing. On my face, it’s too rich for spring and even my dry skin can get clogged if used too often, that’s how moisturizing it is 💸 @viseart Rosé Edit - Purple+neutrals are my jam, and this little guy does it all (day to night, light to smoky) 💸 @milkmakeup Melatonin Overnight Serum is new to me but PURPLE. ‘Nuff said. 💸 @supergoop Shimmershade - Smooth eye color *and* SPF 30. Fave shade is Daydream 💸 @skinfixinc Barrier+ Lotion - Lightweight & moisturizing. The whole Skinfix brand is underrated (Foaming Oil Cleanser is low pH and lovely) 💸 @beccacosmetics Prismatic Amethyst - Better late than never. A creamy pink highlight that leans ever so slightly lavender. Wish I’d gotten this sooner! 💸 @olaplex No. 6 is a leave-in styling cream that makes my somewhat-coarse hair softer and smoother. Also more economical than the shampoo or conditioner. 💸 @tatcha Brightening Duo containing a full-size of the Violet-C serum and half-size of The Essence. Have always been curious about these, and buying value kits during the sale is the way to go. Hot deal-on-deal ackshun! 💸 #beautyandthecat #sephorasale #sephorasale2020 #kbeauty
* Did I already post dis? Tis one of the several hundred “content photos” that’s backed up on mi fone * * Now that the COVID-19 apocalypse is arriving at a glacial pace, I should/could really get to that backlog. This was the second or third part of a holiday haul in LA. That was only 2 months ago. Man this year already feels way too long. * * There’s a scene in Children of Men where one guy asks another “in a hundred years there won’t be one sad f* to look at any of this. What keeps you going?” * * “I just don’t think about it”. A damn fine strategy to stay in the moment and fully absorb all that skincare. So here’s my spread (Renee here, not Angela. Hers is way wider 🤣)
