Debunk the Beauty Myths & Reclaim Your Glow ✨

Hey beauty,
Let’s talk about the real reasons your glow might be fading—and no, it’s not your makeup technique. In fact, some of those beauty “rules” you've heard? Total myths. Today, we’re busting them wide open, shedding light on hormonal shifts, and sharing one small habit that can spark big changes.

💄 Trend Starter Kit: Reset Your Beauty Routine

Start fresh with this minimalist power kit:

• Clean mascara – no flakes, no harsh rubs

• Tinted SPF – skin-first, makeup-second

• Cream blush – blends like a dream

• Nourishing lash oil – because strong lashes = bold eyes

• Hydrating serum – glow from the inside out

• Gentle exfoliator – ditch the dullness, not the barrier

🧬 How to Wear It in 2025

Here’s how to style your beauty routine for hormonal harmony:

• Pair that lash oil with a nightly scalp massage—it boosts circulation

• Go for peachy tones—they warm up dull complexions during cycle dips

• Balance your look: light on the eyes, glowy on the cheeks

• Add adaptogens to your diet—your skin will show the difference

• Don’t skip SPF—even when it’s cloudy. Hormonal skin is extra sensitive!

🔥 Quick Style Hacks

• 🧴 Layer your skincare like a pro: lightest to heaviest

• 🪞 Use your blush on eyelids for a soft monochrome look

• 💋 Dab lip balm on high points for a dewy highlight

• 🛏️ Sleep on a silk pillowcase—your skin & hair will thank you

🫶 Let’s Be Honest...

You don’t need more steps in your routine—you need the right ones. Your skin, your mood, your whole vibe? It shifts. And when you honor those shifts, everything starts to align.

That’s it for this week.

Keep showing up, keep cheering each other on — and as always, run happy! 🏃‍♂️💛
