My notes for quarantine

Use up all the travel sized beauty products – as sadly we won’t use them for a long time. And use them up before they expire. Usually we receive skincare some samples which we normally would only use when we are travelling. Out of all my travel sized products, 80% of them have been only used once or twice. So I decided to use them up. Set up a postive dress up code for working from home. For me, it is always the fitted outfit and elegent jewellery that make me feel up-lifting and professional at work. Same at home really. Instead of fitted dress, I have dug out all the fitted t-shirts and leggings as well as jewellery pieces either a bit “too much” for work (e.g. too chucky, too funcky, too shiny) or “too expensive” that I will not wear for day to day office work. I found two benfits out of this: a) I can always clearly see if I have gained “quarantine weights” everytime walk by my mirror. b) I can try two or three types of outfit (if I want) with different matching jewellery and take picutres of it for future reference. Build your own salon! Part 1: For lash extension lovers like us unfortunately we need to go back to fake lashes for a while now. They are obviously not as natural lash extension (especially when you use the super good quality ones from South Korea or Japan!) However, fake eye lashes are just

What we drink in a crisis | How To Spend It

Tea, tequila, claret, gin… Alice Lascelles finds out what the world’s been glugging — Read on howtospendit.ft.com/food-drink/208311-what-we-drink-in-crisis What we drink in a crisis Tea, tequila, claret, gin… Alice Lascelles finds out what the world’s been glugging APRIL 20 2020 / ALICE LASCELLES Email Twitter Pinterest Facebook When the going gets tough, the tough drink… more. That seems to be the case if the past few weeks are anything to go by, at least. Alcohol may be an “unhelpful coping strategy” during times of stress, according to the WHO. But that apparently hasn’t deterred people from hitting the bottle a little harder during their time in quarantine. When Donald Trump declared a national emergency in the second week of March, spirits sales in the US jumped 26.4 per cent. The biggest spikes were in sales of gin and tequila, but there was double-digit growth in every main spirits category except brandy, curiously. The Bureau National Interprofessionnel du Cognac might want to look into that. With the bar scene in lockdown, New Yorkers have also been embracing cocktails “to go”. The Greenwich Village hot-spot Dante – voted World’s Best Bar last year – says it’s been doing brisk business in bottled classics-with-a-twist: Negronis, Old Fashioneds and Martinis. “Stirred, spirit-forward drinks have been increasingly popular,” says owner Linden Pride. In Gaungzhou, China, Hope & Sesame – another bar on the World’s Best list – has been tiding itself over during shutdown by selling takeaway cocktails in the kind of branded, peel-back cans in which you’d normally expect to find tuna. Bestsellers include a coconut Old Fashioned made
