Chill Tracks of the Month
Lashes give me my life, honey.
A good set has the ability to transform your entire face and are always the perfect finishing touch to any look. Over the course of my own personal beauty evolution, I've fucked with everything from bombshell & fluffy, to edgy & spiky.
I may like my lashes BBW, but there are tons of other styles that will give you a more natural appearance and are just as gorgeous!
Currently, my go to style tends towards dramatically full but sometimes, with my smaller eyes, an intense lash and a thick band can be a little overwhelming. I like to keep a nice variety of styles on deck so I'm able to easily switch it up when I'm not feeling down for a heavier look.
It's important to choose what works for your eye shape and your personal style!
Quick Tip: Don't be afraid to trim your lash to fit! Lash bands ARE NOT created equally and neither are your eyes, so customize the lash to fit comfortably on your lash line before trying to wear them.
A small snip on either end should do the trick, and will make the world of a difference!

"Titles to Read"
"Baby Teeth" - by Zoje Stage
"Estranged from her own mother, Suzette is determined to raise her beautiful daughter with the love, care, and support she was denied.
But Hanna proves to be a difficult child. Now seven-years-old, she has yet to utter a word, despite being able to read and write. Defiant and anti-social, she refuses to behave in kindergarten classes, forcing Suzette to home school her. Resentful of her mother’s rules and attentions, Hanna lashes out in anger, becoming more aggressive every day. The only time Hanna is truly happy is when she’s with her father. Suzette knows her clever and manipulative daughter doesn’t love her. She can see the hatred and jealousy in her eyes.
And as Hanna’s subtle acts of cruelty threaten to tear her and Alex apart, Suzette fears her very life may be in grave danger…" - Barnes and Noble
"The Obstacle is the Way" - by Ryan Holiday
"The book draws its inspiration from stoicism, the ancient Greek philosophy of enduring pain or adversity with perseverance and resilience. Stoics focus on the things they can control, let go of everything else, and turn every new obstacle into an opportunity to get better, stronger, tougher. As Marcus Aurelius put it nearly 2000 years ago: “The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”
Ryan Holiday shows us how some of the most successful people in history—from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs—have applied stoicism to overcome difficult or even impossible situations. Their embrace of these principles ultimately mattered more than their natural intelligence, talents, or luck.
If you’re feeling frustrated, demoralized, or stuck in a rut, this book can help you turn your problems into your biggest advantages. And along the way it will inspire you with dozens of true stories of the greats from every age and era." - Barnes & Noble
"The Witch Elm" - by Tana French
"Toby is a happy-go-lucky charmer who's dodged a scrape at work and is celebrating with friends when the night takes a turn that will change his life - he surprises two burglars who beat him and leave him for dead.
Struggling to recover from his injuries, beginning to understand that he might never be the same man again, he takes refuge at his family's ancestral home to care for his dying uncle Hugo.
Then a skull is found in the trunk of an elm tree in the garden - and as detectives close in, Toby is forced to face the possibility that his past may not be what he has always believed." - Barnes & Noble
