I know what you might be wondering. Is Lauren being symbolic, titling this blog “Lauren’s Trash?” No. No she’s not. For the past few months, I’ve been saving my trash for you. That’s right. I watch similar videos on YouTube, and the point being y’all can see what products I’ve used up and what I […] Read more…
Ever since the whole Tarte Shape Tape debacle, I have been a lot more cognizant of shade ranges in various brands. When it comes to talking about and to women of color, as a white woman, I want to make sure I’m not coming off as overly preachy or like I know best, as clearly, […] Read more…
