I have always been drawn to Glossier's design aesthetic and their minimal approach to makeup, so I was very excited to finally get a chance to try the brand out for the first time! For my first purchase from the Glossier, I decided to go with some of their best-selling products, mainly in the lip category, but also the beloved Cloud Paint as well.  The entire shipping and buying experience was perfect from Glossier, I ordered on Black Friday and was able to get a great discount on the products.

This album feels like a reflection from her present-day self on different periods of her life through a new lens.  Midnights in its entirety feels like a retros

Being Funny In A Foreign Language is the fifth album by The 1975 and one that not only surpassed all of my expectations, but also encapsulates everything that made me fall in love with their music when I was 15 years old. When they announced the album in early 2022, they captioned the post; "Your new album. Your new era. Your old friends. The 1975." which really feels so perfect since it truly feels like a return to their classic sound that we all know and love from the band.   "Every record I've made, I convinced myself that I had so much to prove, so it had to be about everything that ever happened, everything that's happening now, and everything that could ever happen. But on this record, I said, 'Instead of a magnum opus, what about more like a polaroid?" Matty Healy, the band's lead singer, said in an interview with Pitchfork.  Being Funny In A Foreign Language is also a great name for the project, because it is full of really funny and sarca
