The Style Stumbler

Beauty for the recovering overshopper: buy less, love it more.
Smart makeup & skincare reviews, slow beauty, and the joy of getting it almost right.

After years of tripping over trends and buying things that didn’t match my lifestyle (or my undertone), I’m learning to slow down, shop smart, and enjoy what I already have — I call it Adagio Beauty.

Here, you’ll find:
Honest, intentional luxury beauty content (with the occasional fashion disaster)
Makeup & skincare reviews with humor, heart, and critical thinking
Deep dives into influencer culture and the beauty economy
A celebration of makeup as art, ritual, and, occasionally, as emotional support

If you’ve ever regretted a purchase or bought a lipstick just because it looked so good on someone else, you’re in the right place.

Subscribe for thoughtful beauty content, hindsight revelations, and the kind of joy that only comes from laughing at your past stumbles. That's how to stumble in style.

The latest video was a re-upload for technical reasons, so you may have seen it already. But it’s heralding something exciting: I’ll be back with new videos next week!

If you’ve seen it, feel free to skip it. But if you have time and want to hang out, every view and comment on the video helps. Plus, I really enjoy hanging out with you in the comments section.

I’ll be slowly but surely making my way back to videos as my health allows – next week’s video has already been recorded and just needs some editing.

Is there any content in particular that you’d like to see from me?

Photozyme MD is having an Easter sale, and this feels like the kind of thing I’d want someone to mention if I were about to restock, so here I am, passing it along like a skincare carrier pigeon.

Buy 2: save 30% | Buy 3: save 35% | Buy 4: save 40%

I’ve become genuinely very interested in DNA repair enzyme technology, and Photozyme MD is the brand I’ve personally been using. If you want the full nerdy tour, I made a deep-dive review here:

Happy Easter to the epidermis 🐣

Other than that: I am slowly catching up with life after months away from home, and will be back to posting regular content soon. Anything in particular you'd like to hear about?
