Current Beauty Favorites

Disclosure: Thank you to Macy’s and ShopStyle for sponsoring today’s post. All products were selected, purchased and styled by yours truly!

Sometimes I find myself in the beauty department of a store perusing the aisles, wondering what the heck so many of the things are! Like hi, what’s the difference in BB Cream and CC Cream and do I need either? I should really Google the answers to these questions one of these days, but instead, I choose to rely on my trusty go-to beauty favorites, and just look at the pretty packaging in store and online. It’s the same way I buy my wine- all about the label design.

For one day only [THAT MEANS TODAY – AUGUST 25TH!], Macy’s is having an Ultimate Shopping Day, with 15% off beauty!

There’s just something about the initials “HQ” that make anything sound a wee more bit more legit. Add LIY to the front of it and well, it just makes it plain exciting in my world. LIY HQ — the new office for Living in Yellow is officially under construction and on its way to becoming the official home of where future ideas will be dreamt, many blog posts written, meetings after meetings conducted and of course – copious amounts of coffee consumed. I thought it’d be fun to share a little behind the scenes progress of what it’s currently looking like along with a few ideas for the space. Let’s start by climbing up the [not so] corporate ladder… 😉

Last week I decided to take off of work for a time to recharge, relax, go days on end without putting on makeup and not taking one single mirror selfie. Was it glorious? Yes. Am I ready to get back at it? I think so. The thing is, I love my job, I really, really…
