About

Hello, friends! I am a writer, a tango dancer, and a clothing designer, and on the side I'm obsessed with makeup & skincare. I did a NO-BUY YEAR in 2018 to break my habit of overspending on beautiful things, and I created this channel to record my progress. In the wake of my no-buy year I'm learning how to balance my love of beauty with my desire for moderation and financial health. If that resonates with you, hope you will subscribe to my channel! my writing website: hannahlouiseposton.com

All of this is temporary and experimental. My experience with EVER/BODY has been good but there are true pros and cons to cosmetic dermatology which I will explore in an upcoming video. I've also had one Clear & Brilliant laser treatment, which I loved.
