'I am obsessed with Gwyneth in that very particular, love-to-hate/hate-to-love Gwyneth obsession type of way.' slouisepetersen can't get enough of Gwyneth Paltrow — and already knows she'll be binging the Goop creator's Netflix series in spite of herself.
But I can’t get facials in the Hamptons, and I cannot afford a $75 candle that smugly capitalizes on our society’s prudishness when it comes to anatomical naming. I knew that Gwyneth had been talking down to me all along, but Goop Gwyneth did it with a megaphone.So when my sister bought a Goop branded toiletry bag a few years ago , I was horrified. The whole project smacked of elitism and condescension, not to mention the upholding of a very white, very class-specific type of “wellness.
This act of consumption is intrinsically tied to Gwyneth’s unshakeable hold over me, the adolescent fear that I will never be quite enough, and that searching for ways to be better is a good use of my time. In this way, clicking provides a fleeting sense of comfort that I’m moving forward, that I’m making a positive step towards improvement. Of my skin, of myself, of my life.
