Sweetest potatoes, it's been a while since one of these vlogs. ❤️ As New York City is slowly reopening, I thought I'd share three things I learned over the past few months as well as a glimpse into a not-so-normal day in my life since I've been spending 99.97% of my days in my apartment. There will be an updated morning skincare routine as some of you lovely humanbeans requested, going back to the studio to shoot for @Beauty Within, dining outdoors for the first time, and strolling through a pretty empty Times Square.
