** THE GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED **
This giveaway is closed, and the winner has been contacted (CONGRATULATIONS, CHRISTINE!!!), but check back next Saturday for another giveaway.
Every day is a new adventure around here. Just when I think I’ve figured something out, like a good routine to get Connor Claire fed and soothed to sleep for a couple of hours at a time, nope! — something new happens.
She was so fussy last night. Not even Uncle Tabby’s amazing nanny services could soothe her. She was incorrigible… Now watch her sleep all day long today, LOL!
Rise and shine, morning glory! Happy Caturday!
That reminds me… I bet you probably realize by now that yesterday was April Fool’s Day. Sadly, this means that the grand opening of the new Novato Cat Cafe & Cosmetics has been delayed. 🙂
In other news, I got out of the cave/house for two whole hours yesterday, and it was glorious! My parents visited and offered to watch Connor, so El Hub and I sneaked away to the mall. We got coffee, See’s candy and window shopped like real grownup people! It was the most exciting thing I’ve done in a month.

I am glad you two got to get out of the house yesterday. I bet your mom is in love with her little granddaughter 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend! I was supposed to finish moving but it’s supposed to rain so I think the plans will have to get moved by a week.
Jenn @ Fairest Run of All says
I mix different colors of concealer ’cause my skin tone is so weird!
Ashley says
Lately I’m getting the macx9 palettes in every color!
Amy says
Even though I like doing really fancy makeup, some days I just use a color tattoo or pencil for a one and done eye look.
Becky says
Lipsticks. So many lipsticks. In EVERY colour-grey, pink, blue, green…! I love a bold lip!! So glad you got some time out Karen, you’ll have needed it!!
Hilary says
Amazonian clay: No for me. I have dry skin and it just makes it drier!
Andrea Vecchione says
I have so many green nail polishes, it ridiculous.
Sana says

A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with? There are rules .
Have you ever thumb wrestled anyone? Everyone
Favorite boy band? None I’m a solo girl
Amazonian clay: yes or no?yes why not
Barb says
Yay! So glad you got out of the house for a few hours! I have a crap ton of nail polish. I actually plan on going through it this weekend and reorganize it and get rid of polishes I haven’t used. I have probably about 200 bottles, give or take.
My all time favorite boy band is Duran Duran! Listening to them right now while I’m cleaning the house and I’m going to see them in July!! I’m so excited and CANNOT WAIT!!
Susan T. says
If I like something I always try to buy it in every colour otherwise I’m kicking myself later! I have multiples of many of my clothes. The latest item I bought every colour of was moto sweatpants from The Gap. I bought every colour I could find except for black because I have a ginger cat and can no longer have anything black or navy. Lol!
Lorraine says
Fave boy band(showing my age here!): Duran Duran!!
Product I have in a bunch of colors: Nail polish- my stash is overflowing, never too many colors and they never go bad. my weakness is for polish
artemis says
A product I have in a bunch of colors is Essence Longlasting Lipstick 😀 I have it in Barely there, Come Naturally, On the Catwalk and Coral Calling 😀
Congrats, by the way <3 Me and my neighbour think Connor is so cute!
Fran says
Karen, I’m so happy that you and El Hub got out of the house yesterday 🙂
Now what you need to do is get Connor Claire out of the house, too! That was the only thing that helped when my son went through that fussy, crying phase. I bundled him up in the sling and we went to the neighborhood Little League games. Fresh and and fresh faces to fuss over how cute he was worked wonders. I hope you find something that works for your little one as well 🙂
I have Make Up For Ever Artist Shadows in dozens of colors — some of the shades make great blushes or contour powders as well as eyeshadows! And several shades of MUFE’s Rouge Artist Natural lipstick — and several shades of Urban Decay Revolution lipstick, Tom Ford Lips & Boys, and Colour Pop Ultra Satin lip colors, too. When I find a formula I love, it seems like I want it in all the pretty colors!
Sarah says
I have to have lipsticks in every color possible. I am a lipstick hoarder.
I’m also becoming obsessed with shimmery highlighters. I picked up one of the new UD ones yesterday and I’m in love. I might have to get the whole collection…
Jessie C. says
Yes for amazonian clay!
Christa says
I just discovered this blog. It’s so cute. I am really enjoying it.
Aj says
– I have a lot of gold eyeshadows, in different shades and finishes. I went through a serious phase of them when I first started out with makeup. Even though I threw out/gave away a good portion, I still have a lot left.
– I like to mix lip products together, especially to make ones that don’t work for me work. I got my best friend onto it too 🙂
Tatiana says
I have tons and tons of nail polishes. Many of them really close dupes for each other. I’m going through them now and keeping the best red, the best coral, the best taupe, etc. A lot of my decision of which ones to keep has to do with how long the formula lasts on my nails before chipping. It means I’m keeping a lot of indie polishes and my Tom Fords.
Glad you were able to get out of the house. I agree with Fran, now you need to work on taking Connor Claire out. Even if it’s only for a 15 minute walk, now that the weather is getting better here in NorCal, it would be great for Connor to get some fresh air. I couldn’t carry my BG in a sling because my back seriously hurt because of my weakened abs from the C-section, so I’d put her in the stroller (ours could be made to lay flat) and take her out for a walk. Sometimes she’d squall for the whole 15 to 20 minutes we were outside but it did seem to make her quieter later in the day. I’d also put her in the car seat and drive. We were living in The Netherlands at the time and I remember once I drove all the way to Germany. Stopped for gas in Germany, turned around and drove home. She stayed asleep even after I took the car seat out of the car. Another thing that helped was one of the bouncy rockers or we had a baby swing for her. Not sure if those are considered safe or even sold here in the U.S.
Kwmechelle says
A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with? Totally over the contour craze. I just don’t think it’s practical & necessary for every day wear. I lightly use bronzer to contour & sculpt but the Instagram craze is way over the top 🙂
Rina says
Omg, yes for taking a break from the baby! They can be a handful so it’s nice that you got some time off to spend time with the hubby.
I actually love mixing Camelia oil and Rose hip oil for a whole lot of benefit for the skin (In which both must be pure). And you can always mix this with your foundation to get a dewy finish too.
Allison says
I have a zillion nail polishes, in a range of 3-4 colours (mostly variations of red, and rather a lot of glitter).
I also love different colours of eyeliner…though I don’t have a zillion. Yet.
Teresa Luong says
I have lots of sephora nano eyeliners!
Beth says
I have so many similar color lipsticks. MLBB shades and I don’t plan on stopping! Have a great weekend!
Nicole Anderson says
I’m a total twentyone pilots fan I absolutely love them, even though I’m a born and raised hip hop kinda girl, I just relate so much to there lyrics (:
Maria says
Getting out of the house for a bit makes a world of difference
My makeup is confined to tons of neutrals but I go all out for nail polish. I have that in all the colors!
Alicee says
I have eyeshadows in a bunch of colors!!!!
Joni M says
Hi karen, so glad to see things are going well with Connor Claire. If you are having rough nights, just know that it will soon pass! Enjoy those sweet moments if you can. I’ve been loving my Vice4 palette lately. Finding different events and adding pops of color to my looks can be so fun!
Holly says
I love Urban Decay eyeshadow, but I’m tired of all the glitter. It looks bad when it migrates onto my 40-year-old face. What company produces the same quality shadows in great colors, just without all the glitter?
Justine says
I mix anything and everything with my moisturizer because I’m too lazy to apply in layers.
Lindsay says
probably the product i have in the most colors is the nars velvet matte lip pencil. love the finish of those so much!
onyinye Elochukwu says
I love the shades, wish I’ll aee where to get them.
Aparna says
Used to thumb wrestle with my brother all the time 😀 In fact we still do it when we’re having a war of sorts 😛
Alix says
I have YSL Glossy Stain in seven colors!
Rachel R. says
That’s great you got out of the house and got to do some grown-up things. 🙂 Amazonian clay is a big “YES!” for me. I have really oily skin.
Dawn says
People always recommend applying a light sparkly shade on the inner corner of the eye to open up the eye area. On me, it just looks like I poked myself in the eye with glitter pen. It does nothing for me.
Jennifer Pham says
I think some cooler-toned lipsticks look cool on warmer-toned ladies!
Nicola Keogh says
Ah I’m glad you got out in the real world with grown ups for a little break!! Makes coming back to the small ones all the better xx
Amy says
Backstreet Boys forever!
Michelle says
A piece of beauty advice I don’t agree with is putting on concealer after foundation. Yikes!
Emily says
Amazonian clay is great for my oily oily skin ?
Nicole says
I have everything in a bunch of colors lol. #productjunkie
Estefania says
I’ve got tons of lipsticks lol I’m obsessed

i like to mix primer and tinted moisturizer together bc my skin is dry dry dry
Colleen Boudreau says
My fave boy band was Nsync!
Kecia says
Happy Saturday!
It’s windy & lightly snowing here today. This weather is CRAZY!!!
My favorite “boy band”, if you can call them that, is New Edition.
Kim Pincombe Cole says
Yay for sneaking away with your husband to the mall – it’s all about the little things when you have a newborn!
I have at least 6 different shades of foundation in my makeup organizer. I’m tan in the summer & deathly pale in the winter, so I have to customize my shade…
Nina says
Amazonian clay : yes! I used to have very oily skin before and now I noticed my skin changing to combination in the more recent months (due to getting older?). Clay works great as a 2-in-1 formula. I can treat both the oily and drier areas of my face with only 1 product saving money and time. And it probably does a better job than if I were to use 2 different products together !
Lydia B. says
Most recently, I’ve picked up a TON of the new Burt’s Bees lipsticks. I did not expect to really like these, but I DO! (And just for good measure, my favorite boy band was always NSYNC.)
Lisa Brown says
Lip sticks, I have a ton of, so many colors.
Whitney says
Amazonian clay dries out my sensitive skin!
Stella Martis says
Tomorrow I’ll go jogging with my family ^_^
Claudia Melissa Romero says
Im from Honduras and I ADORE MAKEUP, Im a Makeup Addict, I have a lot A LOT of Colourpop Matte Lipsticks, They are the best! Very reasonable prices and so beautiful, I also have almost all shades of L.A Girl concelears.
what I dont like is the contour every day, I dont think that you can do that every single day, All I do is put on my L.A girl Concelears and My 2 in 1 Powder from Clinique, Mascara, Eyeliner, blush and Im done in 5 minutes.
I always use neutral eyeshadows THEY GO WITH EVERYTHING!! ☺
Kris says
I have no will power! In 2 days I bought TF chocolate Bon bons, sweet peach palette, and the pb & j palette. Damn you TF :).
Aviva says
I really love mixing foundations to create the perfect colour for me!
HeraKitty says
Converse Chuck Taylor and Superga Cotu sneakers in rainbow colors. ?
Happy weekend to you and your family! XO

LizzyLovesSatan says
Just moved and this is the first time Ive been alone in the new apartment… it’s weeeeeird
Natalie says
I like to layer Nars Belize lip gloss over my nude, pink, and rose lipsticks!
Lexica says
I love the Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners, partly because they come in such a great range of colors. Somehow a new one jumps into my shopping basket every time I go to Sephora.
Jean says
No offense to your interns, but I miss you writing your own articles and photos :/
Melissa says
i have about 50 different eye shadow colors!
judyo says
i always mix my moisturizer with a drop or two of facial oil –i really like rose oil. thanks for the chance.
marie says
because of my rosacea, it’s only been 3 years i’m purchasing beauty products (i’m over 50). Without your website, and others, i would have never known which kind of products i could buy. Still searching for my Holy Grail, so please, continue showing us new stuff.
Laura says
I’ve thumb wrestled my husband. He can dislocate his thumb, so he always wins.
Christiana M says
So much eye shadow variety in my life!! Love love love the bright colors
Lisa Foster says
A product I have in a bunch of colors is nail polish! Too much of it, a lot of them in similar colors, but the little bottles make me happy.
Sandy P says
So glad you and El Hub got a chance to get out. Aren’t grandparents wonderful?? I sometimes mix two foundations together if I am not feeling the look that day! I love it when people share what they have purchased with their gift card. Hope it will be me someday
Amy says
I am obsessed with the hourglass ambient lighting powders and blushes. Mood exposure and luminous flush are my favorite of the blushes. I love mixing the powders up.
Sarah W says
I HAVE SO MANY REVLON LIP BUTTERS. They’re just so easy, and not expensive.
Janetta says
Strangely lately I have been loving the Hourglass immaculate foundation as a base for the Tarte Amazonian clay foundation. Together that last and hold like a dream!
Lulu says
I am a lipstick maniac:))) I own so many of them in any possible shade!
BJW says
Why, yes, I have thumb wrestled… as an adult. I thumb-wrestled my spouse on our first date.
Linda Torres says
Hello Karen, I’m glad you and your hubby got out for a few hours, I know it could be tough sometimes. Hang in there 🙂 hope you’re having a great weekend and that you get a day to pamper yourself!
Angel says
I have sooooo many lippies in various shades of red and various formulations. Mattes, creams, stains, glosses-you name it and I’ve got it in Crimson. And to think a couple of years ago I was afraid of that red lip. SMH!
Paulina Rios says
Love lipsticks!!! Always need more! And for me, My favorite boy band was the BackStreetBoys!!( when I was little, I loved haha)
Bertha says
Tarte’s amazonian clay tinted moisturizer is one of my all-time favorites so YES!
Chelsea says
I’m glad you were able to get some grown-up time! I love that Uncle Tabby is being a helper.
Lisa says
My daughter is the queen of thumb wrestling. I never play with her anymore, LOL.
Christine B says
Thank you so much for such a wonderful giveaway! ♥ My favorite product right now is my Viseart palette, I use it so much and can’t imagine not having it! Pricey but worth it.
Kirsten says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? There are a couple of liquid matte lipsticks that I have in several colors. And Mac pro pans.
jill says
My oily skin thanks me for discovering Hourglass Veil mineral primer. This in combination with Estée Lauder Double Wear (lightly applied with Beauty Blender) makes my skin look the best it ever has and stay that way all day!
Aurelie Red says
Hi Karen, I disagree with eyes OR mouth.
I love black eyeliner with beautiful red lips ♥
Dominique says
Favorite boy band is New Kids on the Block ????
Lynn T. says
i love to mix my Tarte and Laura Mercier foundations to get a better matching color and texture.
Rhoda K says
Haha me and my sister used to thumb wrestle all the time – I’d forgotten that!
Jordi says
Eyeliners seems like cheating, because if you like a formula, it only makes sense to buy a ton… which is why I have dozens of Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners!
Elaina says
I have TONS of pink lipstick!
LindaLibraLoca says
Two hours out of the house with the husband, that is seriously amazing! Grandparents are the best invention ever.
Margaret Smith says
I’d be lost without a light bronzer. I think that a little dusting really makes me look better. Also love lip glosses and always keep a number in my purse.
Trillina Palemi says
Amazonian clay…yes! 🙂
Heather L says
Such good questions! If with the first question you mean specific product by a specific brand, I have a most of the Nars Audacious lipstick line (still my favorite lip products ever!), many MAC lipsticks, many Ofra liquid lipsticks, some other brands I have several but less than 10. I have a shameful number of OPI, Julep, and China Glaze nail polishes as well! I have most of the Clinique color pop blushes also, love those.
I really like to mix foundations together. My favorite mix, that I use most often, is Marc Jacobs Remarcable with a couple drops of Too Faced Born This Way and a smidge of Givenchy Teint Couture Balm.
I definitely don’t agree with the advise that “older” women shouldn’t wear vibrant colors of makeup. We deserve to have fun too! Besides that, I get way more compliments when I wear blue and green eyeshadows and dark or vibrant lip colors than when I wear nudes!
Yes on Amazonian Clay! My favorite product is the Full Coverage Foundation, my second go-to after my Holy Grail Marc Jacobs Remarcable.
Pauline says
Thank goodness for grandparents and family. You need to get out of the house for a while after having a baby.
CatG says
I did full makeup for the first time the other day. It felt really nice to get all dolled up again. It was also my first attempt at doing a cut crease and it wasn’t a total disaster haha!
AlyOtto says
We were just in the Bay Area! I wish someone would open a cat cafe where we live. I’m pretty sure my Anabelle-Cow would love a mani-pedi while she sips on her cappuccino. >_<
Mickey says
Hi Karen, glad that you’re able to go out!!! It is tough, some of my friends who are moms found it so fun to go out and do simple things!
What do I have that I have in multiple colors? I guess an eye shadow palette by stila and some Clinique chubby sticks, but I have to say… That stila palette isn’t very pigmented so I’m switching. I honestly can’t decide between the chocolate bar palette by too faced or the naked smokey palette. Any ideas anyone? With the Sephora sale coming up, I just might get a new palette! Thoughts?
Karen K says
Happy Caturday! I hope you’re getting some time for yourself today.
Which items do I own multiple colours of? Lip products, hands-down. I can’t help myself. ??
Jen L. says
Still love Backstreet Boys!?
Brian says
Lipstick and lip gloss. I don’t think there is any lip color that I am against wearing or owning lol
Amoure Jones says
Happy Saturday
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
Lipsticks
Nicole says
I have a fair few Rouge Coco lipsticks. I love the formula!
Deretta says
I just got done keeping our 8-week old granddaughter for four hours – I got nothing thing done but taking care of her!
jeny says
The amount of lipsticks i have in different shades of nude (cuhs like no they’re not all the same) is insane.
Also, idk if it’s considered mixing but man spraying fix plus on concealer that hasn’t been blended yet then blending with a beauty blender is the best thing i ever discovered.
Christina says
98 Degrees, anyone? So croony 🙂
claudia says
Today was the first day I started putting foundation on with a makeup brush. All I can say is interesting. Not sure if I like it.
Maddie says
I always gravitate toward pinky-peaches, especially for lips and cheeks.
Tori says
I have a chronic dusty rose lip product problem. A $50 Sephora voucher would be a great enabler :’D
Maren says
I have tons of lip colors & I plan to use all of them.
Icequeen81 says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
lipsticks but they stay in the same color family
Reds, plums, and browns red-browns red-plums

Thank you for your comment and asking about my preg, I answered but didn’t see it appear.
Greets for Connor Clarie, and Le Tabs
Deb says
I don’t have any strong opinions on the questions this time so I just want to say thanks for the giveaway!
Denise S says
I own way too much eye shadow. Especially singles. I fall in love with a color, then only use it a few times because I prefer the convenience of a palette.
Amanda says
I have lipsticks and eye shadows in every color. I’ve been a long time MAC hoarder lol!
Tracy Robertson says
Your line about Uncle Tabby’s amazing nanny services cracks me up, you are such a funny lady! When I find a shirt I like on sale, I want to buy one in several colors. Target and Old Navy have sales where it’s like $7 for a shirt and they carry every color in the rainbow. It’s hard not to go crazy and get them all!
Stephanie G says
I have a ridiculous number of lipsticks, and an insane amount of nail polish!
And Backstreet Boys are my fave. 🙂
Tania g says
Getting out of the house by yourself for a bit is like a nice treat. I know that feeling too well 🙂 Enjoy!
Hollie says
I own more eyeshadows than anything else. I have a love/hate relationship with new releases. I ask myself, how many brown eyeshadows do I need? All of them…I really need to just stop! Bon Jovi would be my favorite band, although I’m not sure if they are considered a “Boy Band ” by today’s standard. They are all boys and a band, so to me it counts. It must’ve felt so good to get out for a little while!!’ Thanks again for another giveaway!
cel says
Something I learned recently that was always a no-no to a lot of people was that you shouldn’t use black on your eyebrows, but that’s worked out for me the best.
Fernanda Gomez says
My favorite boyband is 5 Seconds of summer!!! really love that boys! <3
Selly Martinez says
I want this card, to buy a Too faced blush!!!!

I just found this blog, and I love it!!!
Sanam says
I have so many Chanel Glossimers in a bunch of different colors!
Alona Y says
I have mascaras in a bunch of different colors! I think purples are the most flattering overall, so I’m on the hunt for my favorite. So far, medusa’s makeup makes my favorite.
nat ogu says
yes to amazonian clay for everything , i have becca highlighters in a ton of colors as well as occ liptars…. and i have an urge to start a tom ford and marc jacobs collection

I really like the nyx ones! But hopefully can get some nicer ones
Patricia Cortez says
Loving Dove Camerons cover of Genie in a Bottld
Kate K says
Sounds like your little one might be hitting a growth spurt. I own a TON of nail polish by various mainstream/indie makers – hate to count, but probably >500. The most I own from one maker is 107. Otherwise, I own a fair number or Urban Decay eyeliners.
Emily says
Piece of advice I don’t agree with? WAXING YOUR EYEBROWS. Don’t do it! Haha. Thanks for doing this giveaway! Excited to see who wins.
-Emily http://www.coatandcoffee.com
Melly says
OMG, we used to thumb wrestle all the time as kids! Haven’t done it in ages, though.

Denay says
I have every eye shadow color that is possible…not proud to say that but sadly true.
Lori P says
I say to yes Amazonian Clay, because it’s great in foundation for oily skin.
Julia C says
I’ve never really liked boy bands… But I’m digging Zayn as a break-out solo artist!
Christina says
I have quite a few Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners!
Jolene Johnson says
I think I have three different mascaras and I don’t really like any of them. My eyelashes need a lightweight mascara to keep the curl. And my polishes are ridiculous because I barely ever polish my nails anymore! I’d like to but I usually get suckered into painting my 3 year old daughter’s first, lol.
Heather G says
I just discovered that Walmart carries theBalm products online!!
Jennifer says
I’m happy to hear that you were able to get out with your husband for a little while.
Crazy weather here. Yesterday it was 75 degrees, but tonight/tomorrow we’re supposed to get 1-4″ of snow.
Joselyn Hernandez says
Thumb and arm wrestling used to be a daily big thing when I was in elementary school
Remi says
I have an absurd number of nerdy tees. Does that count as different colors? Otherwise I would say red lippies. So many.
Cori Westphal says
thumb wrestling is how we survived our long bus ride as kids! lol
coriwestphal at gmail dot com
Tavia says
I have lipstick in soo much colors and I love them individually. Who says you can’t have 30 different shades of red or pink lipstick??some ppl have 30 different pairs of jeans in different shades. It’s the same. I say keep doing the things that make you glow and sparkle! Two of my fav bands are 30 Seconds to Mars, Nickelback, and Bring Me The Horizon.

buckycatt says
K,T & CC – I finally tried the OCC RTW lip tar. Indrid is an awesome color & so fun! Who knew tar could feel so good?
Sherry P says
Those Tarte duo lippies are incredible! Amazonia clay is a yes:). A tip I learned with my 3 sons, put them in their car seat or bouncy seat, put in top of the dryer and turn it on. For some reason it soothes them and they sleep well at night! (Of course not all night on the dryer but it gets them there lol)
Liz says
Cardigans and dresses. I have a LOT of cardigans and dresses. I don’t own any pants that aren’t jeans or leggings for working out or wearing around the house.
MelodyJ says
I have to start taking care of my nails, skin and hair again.

My favorite boy band has to be N’sync..my heart will always stay with them
Jenn S. says
I am not what I would consider an older woman (mid 40’s), but I disagree with the advice that women should not wear anything other than matte eyeshadow once they become “mature” in age.
maria says
We are having an early spring up here in Vancouver!
Leah Quinn says
I’m really loving Benefit Highbeam highlighter!

Leslie Kiley says
I have every one of Lime Crime’s eyeliners! They are amazing!
Jessica says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? Nail polish!
What are two products you really like to mix together? I like to mix my BB Cream with spf 50 with a luminous foundation
Have you ever thumb wrestled anyone? Yes, and I’m not very good!
Amazonian clay: yes or no? I like the Tarte products that contain amazonian clay
Cathy says
Yes to the Amazonion Clay foundation and blushes but no to the white face powder. It didn’t do anything for me. And I have a ton of Tarte’s lipsurgence lipsticks..too many to count ;).
Rachel says
I was able to get out of the house with friends twice this week. So. Fun. I feel like I’m ready to work on my final and mom again.
Jen says
I’ve had a nice weekend. Just got home from dinner and relaxing in front of the tv with a coffee. Mmmmm.
Jan Kelley says
I have a ton of nude and peachy pink lipsticks. Unfortunately for my budget they are all high end brands.
Joanna G says
I have about 10 mauve rose colored lipsticks. And another 3 in my current Sephora cart. Seriously? Why do I need so many?
Laurajj says
Oh goodness…my favorite boy band…I have two! Goo Goo Dolls…and One Direction! Both are so relaxing for me!
ann b says
I’m a terrible thumb wrestler.
Chris25 says
Something I have in a variety of colors is nail polish. I am a nail polish fiend. 😛
Trude says
I’m glad you two got some time to yourselves! I always mix foundations, for the last 6 months or so it’s been It Cosmetics CC with a little bit of L’Oreal Pro Matte, to lift the color slightly and help it set better on my skin. 🙂
Anita says
My favorite boy band was (fifteen years ago) NSYNC.
Whenever a song by them comes on the radio I wonder about how much smarter I’d be if I could free up the brain space that stores the lyrics to all of their songs!
Renae says
one, two, three, four. i declare a thumb war! Probably only ever my little brother, back when he WAS smaller than me, which is a very long time ago now.
Amelia Drew says
i’m a makeup novice, but I love mixing two semi-permanant lip colors to make 1 amazing color!
Amy Z. says
Thanks for the giveaway!
Christine says
I’m completely undecided when it comes to BB cream. I love it for a few days, then I’m so over it. And this cycle repeats itself every 2 weeks or so. It looks great but feels tacky which I can’t stand.
Domi says
Accessories I basically have in all colors. I thought of eye shadows, lipsticks, nail polish and clothes but all those categories lack some hues because not all colors work with my complexion. Alas, accessories I have in almost every color because wearing a color that is not the best for me, really works as an accessorie.
Paol Trenny says
I thumb wrestled my nieces all the time. My favorite boy band is the Beatles. Yes to Amazonian clay.
Amber says
Yes to Amazonian clay, love the Tarte products with it!
Lucy Nguyen says
My favorite boyband of all time is Backstreet Boys
Casey says
I have several different shades of foundation that I like to mix together to get my perfect shade : )
TravelingBlush says
Love Tarte, especially the 12hr blushes.
I’d watch Conor for ya, if I were somewhere near. She is a cutie!
Christine says
I mix foundation but mostly just to make the pricey ones last longer.
Kristen says
I have lipsticks in many colors, including blue and black. I’m always looking for new shades to add to my collection.
Kenya says
I don’t really mix any foundations, but I say yes to Amazonian clay!! Also a beauty tipi say no to is the tape on the eyes because I feel like that damages your skin and may give you premature wrinkles another one I don’t agree with is over lining the lips to get that Kylie Jenner look. I have a lot of milani liquid lipsticks in different shades also the matte wet n wild matte lipsticks.
Emily says
I mix my foundation and BB Cream together to get the perfect coverage and shade for my skin!
Adriana says
Yes i have thumb wrestled.
Anastasia T. says
I habe eyeshadows and lipsticks in many colors
Kelvene Spencer says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
Definitely Eyeshadows! And the collection is still growing 🙂
Quimerula says
Back Street Boys!
Deanna says
Never tried Amazonian clay before.
Anissa says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
the only thing I can think of is nail polish. The weird thing is that i’m not disciplined enough to paint my nails frequently so they just lay there, being unused.
angie says
amazonian clay like the one in tarte blush? super yay! it’s my favourite blush formulation ♡♡♡
Kiss & Make-up says
I hope you’re having a great weekend so far! I have eyeshadow in a bunch of colors. I also used to have a ton of nail polish but I recently downsized my stash dramatically.
Jen C says
I’ve colourpop lippie stix in a bunch of colors! Love them!!
Jenny says
I keep buying Hourlgass Ambient Lighting Powders. I have more than I know what to do with (literally!).
Juliana says
I have a lot of blushes, in different shades!
Nadine says
I have several MAC lipsticks (most of them are pinks, which is strange…) and a small collection of Essie nailpolishes .
Nikolina says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? Nail polishes!
What are two products you really like to mix together? Liquid foundation with powder foundation 🙂
Sylvia says
I’m not a fan of contouring and highlighting, but it seems to be all the rage. For everyday it seems over the top and fake, but it’s being presented to consumers as the thing to do every day. I wish/hope that trend will end sooner rather than later.
ZiggyM says
I don’t agree with the contouring craze. I can’t pass up a cute nail polish despite being too lazy to paint my nail most of the time.
Nathalia says
Hmm, not a huge fan of boy bands, but Spice Girls will always have a special place in my heart! You know, GIRL POWER!
Lyse Davitt says
I don’t like the idea that you get too old for some makeup. I’ll be 49 this year and I want to wear whatever makes me feel good.
Deborah says
I have a lot of nail polish colors too. Some have never been opened…
Aarti says
I’m a total lipstick gal so I need all the colors available!
Swati says
I have OPI nailpolish in lots of colors and finishes 🙂
Jennifer Hahn says
Thank you first and foremost for ALL of the work you do on a daily!!! I do have a quick question for you, what is the shiniest, most glass like,gloss you have ever used m
Ally says
I have never even heard of Amazonian clay. Let me check it out and I’ll check back in 😉
Kelly Kimmell says
I love Amazonian Clay products, especially Tarte foundation.
Gina says
I have never ever thumb wrestled anyone! 😉
Chas says
Apparently I have dupes of some lippies that are the same colour. Funny thing is that they’re not quite ones that I like but ones that I think should look good on me. Go figure!
Sasha Cory says
I have a bunch of eyeshadows in tons of different colors. I love thumb wrestling! My LO and I thumb wrestle all of this time, hehe.
Sasha Cory says
Glad you also got some much needed time away! I’ve been itching for some, as well, but when summer comes, I’m sure I’ll get plenty. Is See’s Candies good? I haven’t been there yet. Thanks for the chance! Love Sephora, but what beauty junkie doesn’t, right? Lol
Jamie says
BSB for life! I might just have to watch “Dead 7.”
Lisa says
i don’t agree with not curling your lashes after applying mascara! if you do it carefully between the first and second coat, you won’t break them off, and they’ll hold a curl better than they would if you did it before applying anything. sort of like when you apply a styling product before curling your hair for extra hold. 🙂
happy weekend everyone!
Tammy Woodall says
I have an array of colors of lip glosses. Lip Gloss is my go-to make-up item that comes in so many colors – love them.
Kat says
What are those lip products in that picture? Have I accidentally missed a post and are now falling behind in the lip junkie world?
Stephanie Z says
I have tons of eyeliner, it may actually be literal tons. I normally use my pencil as a guideline for my liquid eyeliner. Some might think it’s a waste, but I think it gives it a nice tint when I do it.
Prettifulblog says
I don’t agree on the baby powder to make lashes look thicker. It just looks clumpy to me
allyson tice says
I have used Amazonian Clay before and it does work, but it is messy and so hard to use! i use it with organic apple cider vinegar and make a paste in a non metal dish and mix it and apply to my face with a big makeup brush. let it sit and dry for 20 min or so and remove with a warm washcloth and then moisturizze well!
Coline T. says
My fav boy band is Backstreet Boys ^.^
Caitie says
I like to mix Weleda’s Skin Food into other lotions/hand creams. I know lots of people use it as hand cream on its own, but its just too greasy for me. A dab mixed into another cream or lotion is perfection though!
Terri says
I have nail polish in a lot of different colors (I like to take advantage of Zoya’s promos).
LisaInSF says
Hey Karen/MBB
Congrats on your new arrival!!! So happy for you and El Hub!!
Here’s something I am into lately: blending bronzers with MAC Mineralize Skinfinish to make a “glowy” bronzer. For example, yesterday I blended MAC Sunny By Nature (a medium matte brown) with MAC Cheeky Bronze MSF. Gorge!–didn’t even need blush or finishing powder after that. am now pulling out some older (mostly unused) MSFs and trying them out in conjunction with neutral blushes and matte bronzing powders.
Jennifer says
My girls ask me to thumb wrestle all the time, and they always tag team me!
Karleena says
I think the product I have the most shades in is the colourpop ultra matte lip!
Rosie says
I’m glad you were able to get out and have fun like a regular grown up. I miss being able to go to the mall whenever I want, especially to Sephora, b/c I don’t have a car right now, hopefully soon. It can be a stress buster to look around and try the samples and fall in love with a new product.
Regina (mybeautymusings) says
I don’t really listen to boy bands, but if I do… it’s One Direction. 😛
Erin says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
Fresh lipbalms
What are two products you really like to mix together?
NARS Sheer Glow and NARS TM
A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with?
You can do dark eyes and dark lips!
Have you ever thumb wrestled anyone?
Yes, even had a thumb wrestling game!
Favorite boy band?
None
Amazonian clay: yes or no?
YES!
Adi says
Loved The New Kids on the Block…
Anastassia says
I own so many nail polishes in so many different colours and lately I never use them.
Angie says
I’d like to talk about what irritates me about Lipstick and why I’m always searching. It doesn’t seem to matter what color (lighter) I put on my lips but it pulls pink ALWAYS. I have NO pigment in my lips. It makes no darn sense to me! Anyone else have this issue?
Susan young says
Yes to the Amazonian clay! After all these years I finally gave Tarte a try and it was love at first sight!
Amy Z. says
I like to mix blushes, such as a pale pink with a coral color. And I haven’t thumb wrestled in a long time, but we used to do it in school!
Margo says
Just found this blog and I’m so excited to see that you love Benefit Hoola because I just bought my first box (where have I been) and the cute green-tipped brush to go with! Thanks for all the great info!
Cindy says
My boy band is Duran Duran!! Glad to see some other peeps on here are Duranies, LOL! Going to see them in Brooklyn next week! 🙂
Beauty advice I don’t agree with? Contouring! It should be left to the pros!
Nicole says
I own a bunch of ColourPop’s Ultra Matte Lips. I absolutely love them!
Judy says
Enjoying some April snow north of the border here! Pretty~
Cece says
My lipsticks are in varying shades of the pinky-brown color family. I’m gonna need to get out of my comfort zone and try brighter lipsticks for spring!
Amanda Waithe says
I would be so grateful to win this giveaway. I have always wanted to go to Sephora but because of my financial situation, I just can’t afford it. Winning this would be wonderful! Thank you for doing this giveaway!
Phoebe says
Wow….what a treat! I have never been to Sephora so this would but I would love to. I definitely would love to get some new lipsticks!
Rena says
How wonderful for you and hubby to get out of the house! I have close to 75 tubes of chapstix, lip balms or whatever you would like to call them (shhh..dont tell). Mostly are the clear BUT I do have two that are colored! Way out of my comfort zone.
Erin says
Lipgloss! I have a Chanel lipgloss obsession…. It’s bad! Hope Connor sleeps today so you can rest!
Ashley says
Glad you were able to get out of the house! I haven’t tried Amazonian clay, since my skin has been pretty dry for the last few years. I’m definitely curious, though.
Karen says
I like to mix my vitamin c serum with my daily moisturizer. It goes on more smoothly and feels really nice on my face and neck.
Rosemary says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? Chanel’s powder blush! Also their rouge coco shines and Guerlain’s lipsticks.
Glad you made it out of the house for a while. It’s important! 🙂
Maria says
Hopefully her sleep schedule gets better! Took my niece a good solid month and a half to find a good sleep schedule, but once she found it she only woke up once during the night. 🙂
Lindsey says
I have nail polish in a lot of colors… probably around 50 colors!
Hillary says
I have many colors of YSL lipstick. It’s my favorite and the packaging is oh so pretty!! My sister and I used to thumb wrestle and NSYNC was my favorite boy band (Justin!)!
Rina says
Eyeshadow in a bunch of colors for sure.
Jo says
I really like to combine my moisturizer and foundation. I find most foundations too thick or too drying for daily wear. My latest favorite foundation is Bare Minerals complexion rescue tinted gel hybrid- it feels like a perfectly combined moisturizer and foundation!
Susan P. says
I give all the nail polishes I win to my daughter and sister who both have quite a collection. I am a potter so nail polish is wasted on my hands.
illy junus says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? Lipstick is for me
Cindy Loo says
I’ve stopped using cleansers on my face, and now I just use warm water. I totally bought into the fancy cleansers, trying to find the right one for my skin type, but my skin has never looked better since I stopped using products and let my natural skin’s oils do their thing!
Lupe Hernandez says
Yay! You got out of the house for a bit. I have many similar eye shadows.
Audrey says
Hi Karen?
The only Amazonian clay products I’ve tried are a couple of Tarte blushes and I didn’t notice any difference between them and other brands blushes.
Megen says
I’m not sold on the Amazonian Clay products, but I do love my Tartelette Palette!
Caitlin says
Oh, man, I used to thumb wrestle people every chance I got. I was a champion. …then people refused to play with me because my nails were like knives. And I know it’s a cheap answer, but I have SO MUCH EYESHADOW. So much. All the colors. Duochromes, metallics, glitters; any color you can name, I probably have some version of. I just can’t stop.
Tiffany says
I’m a thumb wrestling whiz! Probably the only “sport” where I can beat others!
Diane says
Glad to hear you got out for some adult time, Karen. When my husband and I pull in the driveway after an excursion (yes, even two hours), we both say, “There’s no place like home!”
I combine colors of many products, including nail polish coats, although I have to admit that makes it a bit harder to remember when someone asks what color I’m wearing!
Katherine Rumsey says
I wish I could wear highlighter but my cheeks have somewhat large pores and uneven texture…Any tips?
Blanca says
I have Laura Mercier Caviar Sticks in a bunch of colors 🙂
LaTanya says
I have a lot of navy blue
BlackAsphodel says
A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with? People with combination to oily skin don’t have to apply a moisturizer.
JCarbonel says
Favorite boy band of all time, N’Sync. Of recently, One Direction… eeeekk
Sarah says
I like to mix liquid luminizers with foundations.
Kim Tanti says
Here it is April 3 and it has been snowing all day. It is 9:30 pm. and still snowing.
Birdiebee says
I have lip gloss and nail polish in several colors.
vanilla says
the only product I mix together is my face lotion with my foundation. Give me moisture and coverage at the same time.
Marta says
I am so glad you got out of the house!
My favorite band of all the time is Duran Duran!
Ciara says
I have wayyyy too much nail polish! I’m trying to add more lipstick to my stash, so it could go either way in the next few months. Haha.
Olivia M says
A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with? Color correcting, kind of. I do think people should color correct if necessary but I hate how wrong people doing it. There’s so many videos on these big instagram accounts of women color correcting with the wrong shades! People are seeing these posts and using them as a guide 🙁 Why are light complexed women using oranges and reds for their undereyes? Why a LIME green for redness? I could go on for dayzz..
Brittany says
trying to save money so this would be fab!
Lydia M Bennett says
My favorite boy band is NKOTB!
Michelle Li says
I would say my lotions and beauty care stuff is different colours(non makeup)
Tash says
Fave boy band? BACKSTREET BOYS, Boyz II Men, Westlife! And a Korean one called Infinite haha *which is surprising because I despise K-pop so much as I’m more into K-ballads and those underrated artists* Imo today’s music is terrible, all sounds the same. Boy bands (and other singers) seem to have lost originality? More fame-thirst kids trying to be popular ASAP by doing whatever trend that is “in” resulting in mediocre singing ability, meaningless lyrics, scary amount of auto-tunes, homogenous melodies, unoriginal dance moves… ugh I miss times when music is about music, not just a highway to fame. 🙁 -end of rant from a butthurt listener-
Ashley Bree Perez says
Awesome giveaway? I like to mix my lipsticks with lip gloss!
Shannon Oneill says
I used to thumb wrestle my brother all the time. It’s how we solved our battles but he always won.
mrsshukra says
Have not tried amazonian clay!
Lisa C says
Glad you got out of the house for a little while, it really helps sometimes. Kinda like a breath of fresh air, then you really love coming back home.
sally says
BSB always and forever! best boy band!
Jessica miller says
I have so many blue nail polishes.love blue:)
Katherine says
Tomorrow is my birthday! I’m taking a long lunch break to go to a brunch place I’ve been dying to try for ages.
Lorie says
The last person I thumb wrestled with was my nephew when we were at Disneyworld in Orlando. So much fun while waiting in line for a ride.
susan says
We love thumb wrestling at our home!
em says
All time fave boy band is New Kids On The Block
Savannah Hadden says
My favorite boy band will forever be N*sync!
Cecilia L. Wong says
I’m sure your parents were thrilled to babysit Connor. I’d pay to babysit my grandchildren!
Colleen P. says
I have Zoya nail polish in so many colors. My favorite brand!
Elena says
N sync! Connor is adorable!
JackieC says
I have lipsticks in tons of colors. So many colors that I have a few that are repeats. I’m really going to try to work on the duplicates so that I don’t have so many at one time.
Barbara B says
I have a ridiculous amount of nail polish colors!
Virginia says
I haven’t tried Amazonian clay yet, but I’ve heard great things.
Robyn Bellefleur says
My favorite boy band is NKOTB.
NFJ says
A piece of popular beauty advice you don’t agree with?
There are a lot of “natural” beauty treatments which various gurus are all about, one being lemon. Tried some for mild dark spots on my skin and burned the skin so badly had to get medical treatment and treat with salve for months! Found Lancome Visionnaire Advanced Skin Corrector and it’s finally repairing the damage. After a scolding from my Derm. I now ONLY use products I can buy, not stuff I can whip up unsupervised in my kitchen. Our skin is our largest organ, take advice from medical professionals, not people who have tried stuff and given their reviews, all our skin is different, just like we are! Luckily, I learned my lesson without major damage. Have a great week everyone!
Fei Fei says
Fell in love with coca colored lip products recently! Love love love the new temptation waits shade from the Tom Ford soleil collection. Cannot wait to get my hands on one.
zVintageFashionizta says
I have way to many eyeshadows! Besides the tons of neutrals I buy many teals/turquoise/aqua shades just because I love looking at them but I rarely wear them.
Toan tran says
Big Bang is my favorite boy band! ?
Julie says
As a person with hooded eyelids, I really disagree with the conventional wisdom that hooded eyes shouldn’t use shimmery/glittery shades. As long as I put a matte color in my ‘crease’ (aka above my actual crease) I find that I can use whatever shades I want on the lid itself!
Birgit L. says
Two products I love to mix? My favorite combo of course – tea & books 🙂
Daniela says
Chanel nail polishes, the formula is simply the best.
And some tops, t-shirts and shoes that work for me, so I keep on buying these in new colors.
Julie Murphy says
yep thumb wrestle back in the day
Heather G says
I am over the weather in Ohio and ready to move to a warmer state.
Stephanie Hartman says
My all time favorite boy band is NKOTB, they were my first concert ever and I still love them today.
Kim says
Sounds like a great break! Bath, bottle, bed (by 7 PM) always worked for us when the boys were babies. Not everyone is a fan but we kept to a very strict routine and couldn’t have gotten through without it. 🙂 They needed a lot of sleep and never slept in, no matter what time they went to bed, so they had a 7 PM bedtime through most of elementary school as well. Of course, all kids are different!
Rayshawn Shallow says
Happy Monday everyone!!
Amy Tebow says
I always mix my lipstick! I use a liner and then two lip colors to make the perfect color!
LynneT says
I have lot’s of eyeshadow colors, I love having a wide variety of them to choose from.
Shakeia Rieux says
I say yes to Amazonian clay
Melanie says
I just wanted to say congrats on that beautiful little baby girl, she is absolutely adorable!!!!!!!!
rachel says
•What are two products you really like to mix together? Ive always mixed together all kinds of products! I hate wasting stuff so I mix what doesn’t work for me to be able to use it. Case in point: lipsticks that are too light, mixed with a black (yes black!) lipgloss. Also, sunscreen and foundation to get a tinted one since most pretinted sunscreens are waaaay to light for me (or most pretinted anything really!) Ive also enjoyed mixing clear nail polishes and eyeshadows to make custom nail colors–great for those shadows that just don’t work for me!
Andrea says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors? Lipstick!!
What are two products you really like to mix together? Facial oil and tinted moisturizer (my skin is so dry)
Have you ever thumb wrestled anyone? Heck yes!
Favorite boy band? Too hard to choose!
Amazonian clay: yes or no? YES, love the amazonian clay blushes…
Congrats on opening your cat cafe/makeup store!! 🙂
Lena says
I have lots of Essie nail polishes
veronica lee says
I love to mix my lipstick colours ‘cos I can never get the perfect coral shade that I want.
TallulahJane says
I miss a lot of products together. I especially combine my lipsticks if I’m looking for a particular color. Sometimes I mix eye colors to get just the right shade.
Trinh Q. says
The product I have in a bunch of colors would be my nail polishes. I see a new color on the shelf I must buy it.
Marissa says
I have to post about my favorite boy band just because it’s the most fun question ever!! When I was a pre-teen I LOVED NSYNC. But as I’ve gotten older, aka 30 years old lol, I look back on the Backstreet Boys as having really great songs!! 🙂
Thea says
I love amazoninan clay 🙂
Dawn Monroe says
I have been mixing and matching nail polish. I’m loving all the spring colors.
Jessica Rubinson says
I love to mix Mac lipstick in saint German and Be Silly to create the perfect shade of pink!
Anne Perry says
New Kids on the Block.
Annmarie W. says
I’m excited about this prize! I used to wear makeup all the time when I was younger, but after having kids I got out of the habit. And now that my kids are teens, I realize that it’s really time to take care of myself & think about beauty a bit more!
Katie Bellamy says
I’ve let myself go a little, having 2 toddlers. I would totally use this gift card on myself and pamper me a little! 🙂
Charlotte says
Hmm, beauty advice I don’t agree with… The bigger the brow, the better. It depends on features and face — I’ve seen faces swamped by brows that take up 1/3 of face real estate. A truism for life and beauty is FIGURE OUT WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU.
sheila ressel says
I have ton of different colors of nail polish.
Tali May says
I hope I win. Sephora has so many products I want. Not to mention they’re now selling Tom Ford and this gift card will def help!!!
lissa crane says
A product I have in a bunch of colors and love, is the Estee Lauder All-Day Lipstick! I have it in all three of the colors they offer it in, because it really does last all day and I love the shades it comes in!
Christine says
Bunches of lipsticks in bunches of colors and finishes. Tabs is still a model (in all meanings) kitty. 😉

Mary Jacobowitz says
I am not a big makeup user. I love IT makeup.

I’d thumb wrestle with my friends when we were younger to pass the time. Always a fun pastime that would yield laughter.
meghan b says
I have so many different colors and brands, but lots of pinks!
Darlene Owen says
I have a bunch of different colors of nail polish. I love to mix and match them.
Christie says
It’s going to be a beautiful week and there’s not a cloud in the sky!
Marissa says
My boy band was definitely NKOTB. Jordan and Joey forever! I love mixing foundations together to get the right color/consistency.
Faye Gates says
I am so into my nails. I love doing them. People ask me a lot of times if they are fake. I drink a protein shake every day, and I think that helps with my nails being able to grow long and hard.
Gail says
Lipstick – in fact i am shocked at my stash
Maria Kr says
I wasn’t here for a couple of weeks, so Congrats on becoming a mom!!!!!! 🙂
I’m from Germany and it is hard and/or expensive to get some Brands like Too Faced or Tarte. My brother will be in New York in May/June so a Sephora Gift Card would be really nice 🙂
If I win or not, I will ask him to buy me the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. That’s for sure. I also have a long list of other Products. But my limit is 150$ for everything. I really would like to try something from Tarte and Make Up Forever. Maybe Nars (there will be a new Summer Collection).
Are there any MUST HAVES? 🙂
Thank you and have a lovely day!
Patricia E. says
I have a bunch of different color eye shadows. I love being able to mix and match and blend!

I am obsessed with eyeshadow!

Hey I spent this weekend preparing for an upcoming wedding, so lotsa shopping :). And since I am travelling outside US for wedding, so lotsa packing 😐
The blog was helpful in making some makeup buying decision, so thanks for all the help 🙂
Have a great week!
Megan says
I have lots of different colors of eyeliner. I mostly wear neutral eyeshadow so I use the liners for some pops of color.
Laurie Nykaza says
I do like to mix my own foundation color to get the perfect match for my skin color.
Cheryl Larimer says
I would love to learn to put on eyeliner to help these sagging eyes. When I put in the effort, I am pretty happy with the results. I think the right products might help. Yay, the sun is out and the snow has all melted.
Angelica Dimeo says
I have thumb wrestled and lost before lol
Andrea Darst says
Your daughter is so beautiful! Hang in there – it does get easier (so I’ve heard)!
SiouxF says
What’s a product you have in a bunch of colors?
Those Marc Jacobs gel eyeliner minis. I am so impressed with them. Every time a mini kit comes out, I grab one.
Jenny S says
I’ve never purchased anything from Sephora 🙁
I want to! I need a good bronzer and gloss.
elizabeth miller says
I love to mix various shades of eye shadows to create my own tones and hues at different times.
jane kramer says

Josie says
I love lip gloss. I’m addicted to it!!
Jasmine R says
Oooh I’m obsessed with nail polishes, I have way too many. Lol 🙂
Brook B says
I have tons of colors of Sally Hansen quick dry nail polish. I love how easily it goes on and it doesn’t easily chip. My daughter has a hard time sitting still for long, so they are perfect for doing her nails because they dry so quick! I’m always picking up new colors 🙂
Seyma Shabbir says
I generally use eyeliner and mascara. I was more adventurous in college with makeup and need to try new brands!
annalisa says
I have lots of nail polish in a bunch of different colors! ?

shanna says
I have so many different pink/red lipsticks/gloss…. its ridiculous
Regina Reed says
N’Sync BABY!
Rosemary ford says
I just love to paint my nails I can’t get enough of polish I am just glad I’m not alone in this
Renee Rousseau says
I love Sephora for gift giving! They offer gift wrap and have so many cool gift sets to choose from. Great gifts for those hard to please teenagers.
Pam Halligan says
My favorite makeup products are eyeshadow and nail polish. I also can’t stand to be without lip balm.
deanna says
I don’t leave the house without eye liner on my face.
Marina says
Omg your image on this post has the item on the top of my wishlist!! Ive been wanting the tarte lip sculptor duo in basic since it came out. I think it’s only sold at ulta, but I would not have any problems finding something to spend it on. That wishlist of mine is miles long!
kristen says

I LOVE Sephora!! I’m in dire need for some color coordinating make-up for my wedding in June!! Thanks for the shot!
Leah Shumack says
My favorite boy band had to be 98 degrees! And Boyz II Men was a very close second but since they have been back around a little bit I think they might be taking over the top spot once again! I love seeing Wanye on Dancing with the Stars!
Amanda P says
Not one specific brand but I have a lot of lipsticks in many different shades (I’m over 60 now!) I love organizing them in lipstick holders and playing with different shades and finishes!
Tash says
Fave boy band? Backstreet Boys, Boyz II Men, Westlife! And one Korean band called INFINITE *which is surprising because I actually despise K-pop as I am more into K-ballads and those underrated artists;;* I’m thanking God for Adele and the likes because pop music has gone downhill. Too many fame-thirst kids trying to gain popularity ASAP so they just do whatever that is ‘in’…resulting in mediocre singing, meaningless lyrics, homogenous melodies with scary amount of auto-tunes, unoriginal dance moves, even similar looks. I miss times when music is about music. 🙁 -end of rant from a butthurt listener*
