Hi, Maggie! I always love learning about your beauty routine and love this update on this morning's skincare routine too. I love how you stick to your tried and true loves when it comes to skincare especially when your skin feels compromised from a variety of stressors. I used to be the same when I was stressed emotionally and physically but at the same time was overwhelmed with my skincare choices. Funny you mentioned Yarrow because when I was in uni, my skin was both sensitive and super acne-ic - I used this balm (all-purpose) that contains yarrow as its only herb ingredient and it helped a lot! It was such a soothing and cooling herb, it made me really happy that you felt the same way with Yarrow! 

I read the update about Wildcare's move towards being completely essential-oil free through your update too! I really appreciate her intuitive and conscious approach to why - you know, rather than just demonizing essential oil in general. I can resonate in some ways! 

Oh, and thank you for writing about MV sunscreen as well. This is one sunscreen that for some reason, is a little hard to find an in-depth review of and I'm very very skeptical about the shade choices. I did hear that the texture is difficult to work with. I really like Saie tint too and I agree with everything you said about it. I flipped when I found out yesterday that they have released a no-tint version though. My prayer has been answered ha! Love the tint but during this mask-wearing period, I really really lean towards no-tint version of sunscreen! 

And you always look so beautiful, Maggie! Love how the Saie Tint just ever so slightly evens out your skin tone - :) looks perfect xo
