Blush Blindness, Big Sandwiches and Celebrity Smoothies
Hey dolls,
It’s Thursday which means: it’s Dollhouse roundup time! It’s been a great week, with a piece on the celebrity food merch boom, a Beauty Archivist column from our Beauty Editor Grace on the product of the moment – blush! – and an ode to the safety of the toilet cubicle. In fact, there’s so much good stuff we might as well just get into it…
