Check In | Beauty Nerd Things On "the Morning Show"

Do you watch “The Morning Show” with Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston? If you do, I wonder if the episode that aired last week got your beauty wheels spinning! There’s a scene towards the end where Reese’s character is in her dressing room and lots of beauty products are displayed in the background.

Like the beauty nerd that I am, I hit pause and tried to name as many brands as I could! I spy with my little eye…

  • Mario Badescu
  • L’Occitane
  • Clinique
  • Biossance

I think the tall bottles in the middle (the dark blue, myrtle, and mint green) are Oribe, but I’m not sure. Hmm.

Don’t ask me why these things look like a treasure hunt, but they do!

By the way, Reese’s hair in this scene is my dream hair. Love the loose curls, love the volume, love the softness. I especially love how the layers around her cheekbones frame her face. Phew, so good. I’m trying to get there as best as I can with my hair, but I don’t want to put in the extra work to make the little sharp bits around my hairline play nice. Ha!

The most effort I’m willing to put in is to fasten them with those weird little flat clips and then spray them with hairspray.

When you’re trying to tame your hair but it won’t listen

BTW, I put this makeup on for fun, and from afar it looks very casual, but up close, it has more of an 80s vibe. I’m wearing the new Chanel Holiday Eye Palette and one of the tinted red lipsticks, Rouge Allure L’Extrait in Midnight Red.

Connor is home a lot this week because it’s parent-teacher conference time, which means I get to hang out with my little helper, just like the good old days!

We went to TJ’s in the middle of the day (what a luxury, really) and she begged me to buy her this stalk of Brussels sprouts.

I have never seen a child so excited about vegetables! I had no idea how to pick a good stem so I just went with my gut and hoped for the best.

How is your week so far? Anything new to report on your end?

The friendly beauty of your neighborhood,

Karen
