When I was six, my dad gave me a Super Nintendo with Super Metroid. My life changed. Since games were really expensive, every weekend we’d go to a local store to rent new titles like Mega Man X, Rock n’ Roll Racing, and many others.

Few things thrill me like stumbling upon new Amazon storefronts—particularly storefronts  dedicated to beauty products. Earlier this week, I discovered the retailer’s SkinCare+ page: A collection of curated, dermatologist-approved finds (some of which are even FSA/HSA-eligible).
