Free post today. Here are some quick things for Sunday -

If, like me, you do your own manicures to look like you don’t have a manicure - I’m into this no makeup makeup for your nails. I bought the Manicurist Active Nail Kit where you choose three polishes from their “Active” range (they market this as skincare for your nails; you don’t need a base or top coat; it’s smart for them to group polish franchises this way). I got Active Smooth 01, which is basically MAC Face & Body for your nails; Active Glow Grape, better than the Dior Nail Glow; and Active Bright, essentially a nail highlighter. Shiny but not full pearly. Sheer but still something. Lasts a long time.

I refuse to engage with lip stains because 1) they’re all the same color 2) I want the look of a stain but then I want it off. Known for using 272 products to look like I use none, I’ve found The Right Stain For Me. In an attempt to eradicate baseless fears from my life, I finally tried Sacheu Lip Liner Stay-N, which paints on and peels off so you can contour your lip line. You can wild out with it but 8 minutes is my ideal time to leave it on for because I don’t want obvious lining, I want a diffused border. Then I just cover with my forever product, clear Balm Dotcom. I like shades Noohde and Muah-ve. Again, we’re using 3 products to look like 0. The NYX Lip Lingerie Liner Stain is good if you prefer a true liner-y look.
Maybe I’m addicted to oxygen. I go in and out of using Vi02 mouthtape but I somehow found myself ordering a Breathewave. Will report back. I also had about a week of using this (normal altitude/Manhattan) because I’ll try anything that claims “quicker recovery plus supports healthy brain and cellular function”. There are worse things to be a freak over than efficient air intake.

Found something less deranged for me to drink than Chocolate LMNT. And that something is Apple Juice Magna. What can’t magnesium do? Was finally influenced by Jason Stewart, whose flavor profile tastes I trust. I’m slamming it as we speak. Also they just launched a collab Blue Flavor, which is not for me but the kind of idea I really love.

Extremely obsessed with Paro Jalapeno Mint lentil chips. Paro is a perfectly branded Pakistani food company founded by my friend Umaimah, who is the only reason Glossier launched on time. If you were interested in the candy-covered anise seeds from Emily Sundberg’s Grub Street Diet, Paro makes those too.

Also not for me but I get asked this a lot and want to know your thoughts in the comments -
