Diptyque Eau de Sens Perfume Review
Intentionally imperfect like a rumpled linen button-up shirt. Last few gorgeous days of summer and wearing #diptyque Eau de Sens hair mist. This really works as a hair mist because it’s distinctly in-perfumelike, nor is it too soapy. Bitter orange … Continue reading

Opening up a box of Fenty Skin Hydro Vizor Sunscreen. Have you noticed that a lot of new packaging is refillable as brands try to be sustainable. I think it’s good in theory. I just don’t know if I’ll commit. … Continue reading
