Denver fashion design brand Station in collaboration with Andrew Wetmore of Fruitsartclub, revealed on Sunday, May 24 a limited one-week only graphic t-shirt available for pre-order that will benefit the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) Denver. Total shirt sales will be donated to the MCA as they continue to be closed due to coronavirus until July 1. The 100% cotton shirt titled, “Take Care of Her Or She Will Take Care of You,” is a nod to mother nature and the relationship between streetwear brands and art galleries. “It has a clear concise message with a cheeky tagline, the globe graphic and character have a hand-drawn feel and the fonts are nostalgic and placed in an interesting layout,” said Mars Contee, Station designer. “That coupled with the numbered tags, the tees being printed on 100% recycled cotton and it all being for MCA definitely make this one of my favorite Station releases ever.” In a joint effort with Station, Fruitsartclub and all other platforms, the MCA crowdfunding board agreed to donate equivalent donations up to $100K for shirts sold. “Through this release we are hoping to garner enough funds to be able to make a sizable donation that will then be matched by the board and get them closer to their $100K mark.” To pre-order a shirt, visit here.Photos provided by Station. via https://303magazine.com/2020/05/station-and-fruitsartclub-mca-denver/ A little more than two years ago, Rossonian was regarded as one of Denver’s marquee bands. Named after the famed Five Points hotel, the alt-rock group’s chapter officially came to a close mid-2018, though it had slowly begun deteriorating a year prior. Each member set their sights on going their separate ways at its conclusion, some leaving Denver entirely. Lead singer, Seth Evans was one such member — shipping off to Brooklyn, picking up the Paul Babe moniker in the process. A slew of devastating events preceded the move. Rossonian and side projects spoiled, the loss of a close friend and the resulting malaise — Evans faced the impending doubt and self-isolation in a brand new city, not entirely different from that of the existing coronavirus situation.
As stay-at-home orders slowly lift, restaurants start to re-open and the weather entices us outside for adventures, it might feel easier to forget about the global pandemic and the precautions we should all take going forward. Don’t be that asshole. Instead, follow these simple etiquette guidelines whether you’re ordering take-out in the city or camping for a night in the mountains. General EtiquetteSocial Distancing![]() Colorado’s Poet Laureate Bobby LeFebre (right) and nationally recognized artist-activist Suzi Q Smith (left) discuss ideas for displaying poetry on Hope Tank during the quarantine. Photo by Marla Keown For those of us who appreciate our personal space, the social distancing requirements set out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) might even be pleasurable. But for those who never minded jostling around in a busy crowd of people, this new norm may come as a burden. The truth is that the requirement isn’t asking that much, especially in a place like Colorado where the population density isn’t as saturated as say New York City or Venice. Six feet apart from the next person is about two arm lengths. Most of the time, this distance is easy to enact. Some examples of opportunities to properly socially distance in a daily routine are stepping (safely) off the curb to let someone else walk by on the sidewalk, crossing to the other side of a street if one side is busier or waiting to get out of your car if someone is nearby. Wash Your Hands![]() Photo by Eric Minbiole via Flickr It seems like such a simple task to ask everyone to do to stay healthy and yet almost every major publication in the US has felt compelled to write an article explaining how to wash your hands. The gist is that you want to do it for at least 20 seconds and you want to do it well — covering every inch in soap and water and scrubbing under nails and between fingers. How not to wash your hands is a light rinse of water followed by a thorough rubbing on your pants. And washing your hands once a day isn’t enough. Basically, you need to do it at every interval in your day when your location changes. Wash them before you leave your house to protect others from your germs, wash them after touching doorknobs and car keys and definitely wash them once you return home. Although there are not many situations for people to publicly shame others for not washing their hands (save for the bathroom), it goes without saying that anyone who complains about washing their hands so much should feel shame anyway. Check out this explanatory article in The New York Times for a lot more information about washing your hands. Wear A Mask![]() Denver author Kali Fajardo-Anstine wearing a mask. Photo by Amanda Piela Fashion statement or not, wearing a mask is going to be in season for a while now. Denver is operating under a mandatory mask order until further notice since May 6, 2020. It is now a recommendation backed by science that wearing a mask reduces the risk of spreading the virus to others. This study, shared by Governor Jared Polis, explains how droplets from your mouth can either fall to the ground or “dehydrate and linger as ‘droplet nuclei’” in the air surrounding you after you speak. By wearing a mask, those droplet nuclei are contained, thereby decreasing the risk of your droplet cloud infecting others should you carry an infectious virus or disease. READ: What You Need to Know About Denver’s Mandatory Mask OrderOf course, the key to wearing a mask is doing it properly, much like washing your hands. Once you have a mask on, do not take it off carelessly or pull it down under your nose or chin. Wearing your mask like a neck warmer serves only one purpose — to keep your neck warm. Masks are not required at all times when outdoors, but it’s good to always have one handy in case you find yourself in a place where social distancing isn’t possible or easy to accomplish. Outdoor EtiquetteClick to view slideshow.These days, first come first served is the best foundation to base your outdoor activities around. Getting outside and enjoying the summer isn’t outlawed, but doing it with a crowd of strangers is highly frowned upon. If you want to take a hike, go camping, biking, rafting, swimming or even just for a picnic in the park, you should always do so with the acknowledgment of who else (and how many) are doing the activity. For instance, if you show up at a trailhead and the parking lot is full, try a different trailhead or parking lot rather than parking on the road and overloading that trail with more people. Next time, should you really want to go on that particular hike, try arriving earlier and being one of the “first served.” Most of the time, these activities will allow significant space from other humans, making them suitable especially in these times of social distancing requirements. But there are a few things that will make you “that asshole” if you don’t think ahead. READ: How To Not Hike Like an AssholeCamping and Hiking

Indoor EtiquetteClick to view slideshow.After all the toilet paper hoarding of March and April, it’s safe to say that not everyone understands what is most important during a global emergency. It’s apparent, with a casual scroll through Reddit for instance, that some people have turned into monsters while out completing their essential tasks. The number one thing to remember is that the employees of these stores deserve the right to stay healthy, especially if that is achieved through mask-wearing and social-distancing carried out by customers.

via https://303magazine.com/2020/05/colorado-pandemic-etiquette/ All and none, LOL! I keep a lot less than I ever did in the past, and I’m trying to stay that course. It’s become more and more unnecessary to keep past products (better, more consistent photography on my end but less mega-hits that need to be kept to compare in the future).

Usually located in Denver’s Historic Five Points neighborhood, this year the festival will move to a virtual one-day event to protect the health and safety of its vendors and attendees. The 2020 Virtual Juneteenth Music Festival will take place on Thursday, June 18. The Juneteenth Music Festival will present a day of entertainment, educational programming and The DREAM BIG Awards. It will include live music performances, panel discussions, dance contests and stand-up comedy. The DREAM BIG Awards honor individuals who have set high standards and have a profoundly positive impact on their individual communities and the African American community as a whole. This year’s DREAM BIG Award winners include Joy Ann Reid of the “Reid This Reid That” Podcast, Tiffany Aliche also known as “The Budgetnista,” Chanel Turner the founder of The Black Owned Wine and Spirits Festival and John Burns, founder of Icon Talks and many more. There will also be a Women’s Panel, LGBTQ Panels, an Icon Chat with Colorado Senator Rhonda Fields. Additionally, MC’s from Denver, Dallas, DC and LA will tune in to host a Virtual Barz Cypher and dances in a Virtual Buckdown Challenge. There will also be a virtual vendor marketplace where there will be downloadable merchandise including kid’s coloring books and curriculum, prominent African American Chefs’ recipes and more. With over 50,000 attendees in the past, the Denver festival is the largest Juneteenth Music Festival in the country. With the challenge of moving virtual and the new digital landscape, JMF wants to create awareness for freedom and inclusion of all this year. The goal of the 2020 festival is also to create experiences people can enjoy from home and to educate a larger number of people about the American milestone Juneteenth stands for. “The 2020 Juneteenth Music Festival invites all to join, online, for a positive, educational and entertaining day celebrating African American history,” JMF stated in a statement. A full schedule of the festival will be released in the coming days.

It had excellent pigmentation that applied evenly and comfortably across my lips as it did not drag or tug. The texture felt lightweight with enough slip to glide on but didn’t feel slippery while worn and smoothed out some of my lip lines. It lasted well for five hours and felt moisturizing while worn.

Formula Overview$32.00/0.12 oz. - $266.67 Per Ounce The Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick formula is supposed to have “high-intensity color” in a "single stroke" that "glides on effortlessly" and has "six hour" wear. More recent copy of the formula has been more specific as it having "medium-to-full coverage." Most shades in the range are lightweight, creamy with moderate slip with semi-opaque to opaque coverage that wears four to seven hours. The formula tends to sit well on lips and either gives the illusion of plumpness or smooths out lip lines slightly. It's also hydrating while worn. They are vanilla-scented but have no discernible taste. Browse all of our Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick swatches.

![]() UndefeatedEstee Lauder Undefeated Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a deep, reddened plum with subtle, warm undertones and a luminous sheen. It had nearly opaque color payoff in one stroke, which delivered even coverage that didn’t emphasize my lip lines–it seemed to smooth out a lot of them, actually! The consistency was lightly creamy, dense without being too firm and still glided well across my lips. The color wore well for six hours, left a bit of a stain behind, and felt moisturizing while worn.

At times, it was hard for me to believe those words were about me and what Temptalia has become in the community! I’m so taken aback by the comments I’ve received through social media today that by the time I sat down at my desk (LOL, I was in the middle of swatching/photographing when everything went live this morning!) to share this with readers on the blog, I’m almost at a loss of words. I’m overwhelmed by your kind comments and ongoing support. Thank you so much: the support I’ve received from readers is responsible for the longevity of Temptalia, and it has transformed the trajectory of not just my life, but the people (and dog) nearest and dearest to my heart. There is no other way to repay that support than by doing the best that I can to live up to the thoughtful words so many of you have directed my way. Thank you! ![]() ![]() via https://www.temptalia.com/quick-note-thank-you/ ![]() Palette 06Natasha Denona Palette 06 Eyeshadow Palette 5 ($48.00 for 0.4 oz.) includes three more neutral shades with a pop of teal and blue. Unfortunately, three of the five shades were under-performing as they were drier and more powdery with two being sheerer as well. The two more intense shimmers had good pigmentation and applied much better.

![]() Deep Teal (19M)Deep Teal (19M) is a medium-dark, bluish-teal with subtle, cool undertones and warmer, golden shimmer that gave it a metallic finish. It had rich color coverage in a single layer, which adhered evenly to bare skin and blended out well along the edges. The texture was lightly creamy, smooth, and dense without being too firmly-pressed into pan. It wore nicely for eight hours before fading noticeably on my eye. FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent). Top Dupes
Formula Overview$29.00/0.08 oz. - $362.50 Per Ounce The majority of the brand's eyeshadows are quite pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing. The eyeshadows have improved over time, particularly with respect to longevity (without a primer). The original formula often creased on me within seven to eight hours, whereas the more current formula wears eight to nine hours with fading (instead of full-on creasing). The more matte finishes tend to be a bit more velvety, substantial, and less dry/powdery compared to prior iterations. The metallic finish is often the creamiest, slightly denser in feel, but has excellent pigmentation, adhesion, and blendability. The sparkling shades can have some fallout, depending on how they're applied and how sparkly they are, so they sometimes work better with fingertips or a dampened brush; they can also run sheerer compared to other finishes. Cream-Powders are the more unique formulation and tend to have firmer, almost stiff, consistencies and more semi-opaque, watercolor-esque coverage. They are longer-wearing, but they can take a few uses to learn how to use. This formula has also improved compared to when it first debuted--it is a bit more yielding now.

![]() Suede (58V)Suede (58V) is a light-medium brown with moderate, warmer yellow undertones and a bit of gold shimmer over a more matte base. It had medium coverage that was slightly buildable, but it was prone to sheering out due to the more powdery, drier texture. There was some excess product that kicked up in the pan along with light fallout during application. This shade stayed on decently for seven hours before fading visibly.

The eyeshadows have improved over time, particularly with respect to longevity (without a primer). The original formula often creased on me within seven to eight hours, whereas the more current formula wears eight to nine hours with fading (instead of full-on creasing). The more matte finishes tend to be a bit more velvety, substantial, and less dry/powdery compared to prior iterations. The metallic finish is often the creamiest, slightly denser in feel, but has excellent pigmentation, adhesion, and blendability. The sparkling shades can have some fallout, depending on how they're applied and how sparkly they are, so they sometimes work better with fingertips or a dampened brush; they can also run sheerer compared to other finishes. Cream-Powders are the more unique formulation and tend to have firmer, almost stiff, consistencies and more semi-opaque, watercolor-esque coverage. They are longer-wearing, but they can take a few uses to learn how to use. This formula has also improved compared to when it first debuted--it is a bit more yielding now.

![]() Skin (75S)Skin (75S) is a light, golden brown with strong, warm undertones and a pearly sheen. The consistency was dustier and drier to the touch with some excess kick up in the pan and light fallout during application. It had good color coverage but seemed to fade a little bit shortly after application. The color started to show more signs of fading after seven hours of wear.

![]() Cream (21S)Cream (21S) is a brighter, light gold with strong, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had opaque color coverage with a smooth, lightly dense consistency that had enough creaminess that it picked up well with a brush and looked almost “melted” when pressed onto the lid. It wore well for eight hours before fading noticeably on me. FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent). Top Dupes

![]() Koh Tao (89V)Koh Tao (89V) is a light-medium blue with subtle, cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. It had semi-sheer color coverage that did not build up well, even over primer. The texture was moderately powdery, though finely-milled, and thin. It was difficult to apply the color evenly, and there was noticeable fallout (especially as I attempted to build it up!). There was visible fading after six hours of wear. FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent). Top Dupes
