Weekly Recs | August 18-September 8
A few things I recently enjoyed and maybe you will too.

Adidas Quarter Socks | I bought these because I wouldn’t want anyone thinking I’m a millennial (despite having the most cliche millennial name of all). Fun colors, good quality, and I feel like one of the cool kids.
La Roche Posay Gentle Foaming Oil Cleanser | Colleagues in the dry skin offices, gather ‘round. This oil cleanser foams up nicely and washes away every bit of my make-up without making my face feel tight and dried out. A true staple, especially as the cooler months approach.
LL Bean Long Jacket | Is it too early to start thinking about outerwear? It’s been crisp in the mornings lately, and I’ve had to pull a jacket out, so the clock is ticking and this retro vibe is right up my alley.
LL Bean Short Jacket | Ditto on this shorter version with a better color way, IMO.
Nivea Cream | Can you sense a theme? I’m gearing up for cold, dry weather, which means stocking up on my ride-or-die cream. My mom used this stuff and so it’s nostalgic to me (smells like mom!) and it’s also a product with longevity for a reason. It just does the damn job. Comes in giant tins too.
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Toner | My chosen chemical exfoliant. I use it once a week or so to keep these pores squeaky clean.
The Ordinary Moisturizing Lotion + HA | This is my daily driver moisturizer that I apply in the morning. I swear, it was the only thing that cured a dry patch on my face a couple of winters ago and I’ve been loyal ever since. And a bargain price point too.
Target Leggings | Sometimes basic is best and I find these affordable leggings to be the best in the biz.
