I have mixed feelings about the New Year. I don't like resolutions. I don't like the influx of weight loss ads. I don't like the assumption that 11:59 on the 31st and 12:01 on the 1st make you a fundamentally different person. But what I do enjoy is seeing everybody's favourite products from the year...so here are mine. Earthtones Naturals Curl Define Gelly... http://amandaglowgetter.ca/2020-favourites/

I used to think that facial mists by which I mean skincare-focused, hydrating facial sprays were useless. I wouldn't use them, or I would skip them in my skincare routine. But now...I guess I'm a facial mist convert for a variety of reasons. If you're a facial mist skeptic like I was, here are three reasons to add a facial mist to your routine and three mists I like.... http://amandaglowgetter.ca/facial-sprays/

Octopied Mind sent me this tee I graciously accepted because they're a local brand and I think they're rad! If you follow me on Instagram, you might have noticed an increase in posts that are sponsored, or where I have received the product in PR. A little while ago, my IG friend Julie messaged me asking how I decide which brands and companies to work with. [ 1,037 more word ] http://amandaglowgetter.ca/which-brands-to-work-with/

This summer has been particularly brutal. I've had ongoing flares for a chronic illness, learned I need surgery, and have been struggling with my mental health (as many of us are) because of increased isolation to try to keep myself and others safe. In the spring I basically didn't wear makeup or nail polish for a few months, but I've been slowly getting back into makeup and other beauty things as the end of summer approaches.
