I get asked almost every day about an item of makeup I’m wearing. I’m definitely a creature of habit and wear the same thing nearly EVERY DAY, day or night. It’s shifted a little bit since the last time I shared back in 2019, so I figured it was time for an update. Here’s what I use today:
Bare Minerals Foundation in Sandalwood 15 $35 I’ve used this foundation for the past few years, shifting between Fawn in the Summer and Sandalwood in the winter months. I just love it so much.
Bare Minerals Concealer in light/med neutral 05 $25
Bare Minerals Bronzer in Faux Tan I use this for light contouring $29
Sun Bunny Bronzer $32 This has been my go-to bronzer for years.
Maybelline SuperStay Ink Crayon in Lead The Way You will not regret getting this one! I’m wearing this or chapstick 99% of the time. It’s the most beautiful color and stays on! $9
Mascara I’ve tried so many mascaras, but this one is the bessstttt. I’ve converted all my sisters and friends. It volumizing and lengthening and doesn’t flake at all. $23
Eyebrow Pencil $25 I use the brush side to brush my eyebrows up before filling them in with this universal taupe pencil
Clear Brow Gel $22 And then set them with this brow gel that keeps them in place even when I’m changing my shirt.
Laura Mercier Blush in Sangria this blush is the newest addition and the bright pink blush adds so much to my look! A little goes a long way and it stays on all day! Once I changed from peachy blush to this one, my face looked so much more alive! $32
Too Faced Natural Nudes Eye Shadow this is also a new addition and I can’t say enough good things!! The entire palette is filled with an array of neutrals with a matte and corresponding shimmery counterpart. I know it’s bold to say—but literally my fav palette ever. $48
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]
