I’m leaving for a little bit….

But I’ll be back! I’m gearing up for maternity leave this week, so I won’t be posting new content for a while. But I have every intention of coming back and continuing to share more delicious recipes and meal ideas in 2025!

Catch Up on the Latest

Spend a cozy day at home with me! Making soup, doing my favorite cruelty-free makeup routine, and decorating for the holidays. Hope you enjoy this vlog!

My Cruelty-Free Makeup Routine

I stopped wearing foundation about a year ago and started using a tinted serum instead. Switching from makeup to tinted skincare honestly just feels more comfortable on my skin throughout the day, and I find that it’s way quicker to get ready in the morning too.

Step One: Tinted Serum

I use this one from Typology. It’s cruelty-free, vegan, and made with natural ingredients.

Note: It’s very light, but it’s buildable and leaves a pretty finish on the skin.

Step Two: Concealer

I use the tinted serum concealer from Typology too. It might be my favorite product they make! Creamy and hydrating with great coverage.

The tinted serum (step one) doesn’t cover everything, so I go back in with the concealer to cover any spots that need it. That way I only have coverage where needed, and not all over my whole face. This method just looks and feels more natural and like I said, it’s more comfortable on my skin.

Step Three: Powder

I use a lightweight translucent powder to set the serum and it helps keep everything in place throughout the day.

Typology also makes a great Lip Oil that comes in lots of colors but I generally use the clear one as a gloss.

These three products come in a set, which you can find here https://bit.ly/4fHUz3y

Soup’s On!

Here’s three cozy winter soups I’ve been making on repeat lately! They’re flavorful, hearty, and loaded with lots of veggie goodness 🌱

This Golden Carrot Ginger is one of my favorites!

Hope you enjoyed this week’s newsletter! I’m sending you lots of love for the holiday season and wishing you a very happy New Year!

Like I mentioned, this will be the last post before I go on maternity leave, but I’ll be back in 2025 with more fun stuff! See you then 🥰❤️ Nicole
