Life Changing Products

Nothing like going through a REAL life changing event to highlight the hyperbole of that term applied to things that are nice or helpful, but hardly Life Changing…
There are a lot of big terms we throw around that a sensitive person (which I'm usually not) would jettison.

And while a makeup brush has yet to change my life, I've got this new spatula that's really putting a spin on things…!
