** THE GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED **
This giveaway is closed, and the winner has been contacted (CONGRATULATIONS, JENNIFER!!!), but check back next Saturday for another giveaway.
Good morning, glory! Guess who’s on her second cup of decaf Irish breakfast tea and working her way through February’s Allure magazine.
As usual, this one’s been very eductational. For instance, I just found out that Too Faced is going to have a waterproof version of their Better Than Sex Mascara. Hmm… Good to know.
Today, it’s just more baby related things for me, like, I have to set aside an area in the bathroom where I can give BG her sponge baths, figure out exactly where I’m gonna put the bassinet, exciting stuff like that…
I hope you have a wonderful winter weekend, and I sure as heck hope it involves chocolate, and/or other Valentine’s Day treats and sweets.
Talk to you soon. Good luck in the giveaway.

Hi Karen!!!
Hv a nice weekend!
Sherry says
Cracks me up because blue eyeshadow was all the rage in the 80s and I thought I looked da bomb. Sigh, seeing pictures make me cringe. Yowza. May you and the baby have a lovely Valentine’s!
Jennifer says
Don’t tell anyone – but I heard a rumor you’re having a baby. Crazy what the media comes up with.
Colleen Boudreau says
I’ve never gone skiing or snowboarding EVER!
Lisa says
Ooh, my favorite Valentine’s Day candy is chocolate shaped hearts! Yummy!
Lindsay says
i never wear lip gloss, bronzer or face primer
Becky says
I last skied last December at Cairngorm in Scotland. Skiing at home is largely dodging rocks and ice, but it’s fun!!
Anna says
I never wear lip gloss, bb cream or liquid liner!
Allison says
I never wear lip primer, face primer or bronzer. I love my tinted moisturizer though; that stuff’s the bomb.
Meghan P says
I typically don’t wear eyeliner everyday, brow gel, or highlighter on a daily basis (work-wise), but I’ll usually go all out for nicer occasions! 😀
Anita says
I never wear bronzer (I’m too pale, even the lightest shade looks like dirt on me), lip liner, or any eye brow make up.
Chris25 says
The only thing better than Valentine’s Day itself is the discounted chocolate that becomes available the day after. 😉 I hope that you and your family have a great Valentine’s tomorrow!
Joni M says
Hi karen, hope you have a great valentine’s day. Hope you and baby girl are doing well. Cant wait to hear about her and that the birth goes well. Lots of love to you and Tabs

Wow, it is really the final countdown, right?
Hope you enjoy your last Valentine as a twosome, next year you will have a third member (of the two-legged variety) in the family 🙂
Lauren says
Happy VALENTINES Day, Karen and BG!!
I never use brow gel, just a pencil; bronzer has been abandoned lately as well as lipglosses…my hair clings to my lips!
Wendy@BlushandBarbells says
the last rumor I heard is that El Nino was cancelled! Oh no!
Jenny Ham says
I don’t wear bronzer… Happy Valentines Day..
Beth says
I never wear bronzer, lip liner, or blue eyeshadow. I have blue eyes, so it looks awful on me! Happy Weekend everyone!
margarita says
Happy Valentine’s Day Karen!
Lucinda says
I’m really impressed with how you’re keeping up with your blog during your pregnancy. What advice do you have for bloggers on maintaining a healthy work/life balance?
Thanks for hosting these awesome giveaways 🙂
Kayla says
I never use lipgloss (I don’t like glossy lips! Give me matte or satin!), tinted moisturizer (I just have never bought one, idk why!), or bronzer. I am just way too pale!
Judy says
Winter weather is here! -26C today heeere
Kendra Kammer says
Hi! I last wore blue eyeshadow on Sunday, to support the Broncos in the Super Bowl! But then I also wore it Tursday to an 80’s party. So I’m all over the blue eyeshadow this week! (Or its all over me. Lol.)
Karleena says
The last time I wore blue eyeshadow I think was last winter! Unfortunately I don’t think it looks that great on me :/
Michelle says
I was a kid of the 80s and blue eye-shadow was the coolest thing ever. I had this baby blue shadow my grandma had bought me and I always wore it while playing dress up , I thought it made me look so beautiful!
I was 8 years though so I wasn’t allowed to wear it out of the house,which probably was a good thing.
Now any shade of blue eye makeup always reminds me of that so I don’t wear it, it all feels too 80s flashabck, even navy
Tiffany says
I saw Howie Day live recently and he was really amazing!
Tiffanie says
Enjoy your baby-planning day!
Teresa Luong says
I like blue eyeliner more than blue eye shadow! A bright cobalt blue!
Anissa says
I never wear foundation, concealer and powder. I really like wearing a lot of eye and lip make up but i’m not one to even use face make up, except for blush and bronzer. My skin needs to breath, otherwise I break out so i’m lucky I guess.
Rahila says
Hey Karen! I totally love bronzers but I am not confident of the right shade for me. I am probably a little bit deeper than your skinshade. I am not NC42 and not NC45(too orange) either. Can you please recommend a good matte bronzer and a shimmer bronzer (Nars, Too Faced or Mac) as well as a sheer foundation/tinted moisturizer with shade names that I can explore?
Erin says
When was the last time you listened to live music?
Actually live? A long time. I’ve heard plenty of live recordings.
What’s a rumor you recently heard?
I heard they are cutting the budget here.
What are three types of makeup (lip primer, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, etc.) you never wear?
Lip Primer… I think that’s the only thing I’ve never worn.
Have you gone skiing or snowboarding yet this year?
Nope, I haven’t done either in 10 years plus!
When was the last time you wore blue eyeshadow?
The 80’s! I have some blue liners I wear now.
What’s your favorite Valentine’s candy?
Truffles.
Melanie says
For the longest time I never wore mascara because I have the straightest and chubbiest lashes so I always felt like it was a lost cause. I’ve changed my ways! I can’t go without it now.
Lizzie says
Last time I listened to live music Menudo in the 80’s live in concert on Guam. Sad I know.
Sara says
Last time I listened to live music was when I went to a Taylor Swift concert over the summer.
Erin says
I’m an Irish dance teacher, so the last time I listened to live music was at a competition last weekend. All competitions have live musicians, something I love about Irish dance!
I never wear face primer. The ones I’ve tried break me out, probably due to silcones/dimethicone. I have never even tried lip primer! And right now I never wear color correcting concealers, but I’m eyeing some at Sephora, so maybe I will start!
Tatiana says
Don’t think I’ve ever worn blue shadow.
I had my girl’s bassinet right next to our bed at first. That way when she needed to be fed in the middle of the night Dear Husband could help me get up (had a C-section and moving around was hard at first) and then hand her to me to be fed. A lot of people co-sleep with baby in bed with them, but we decided that just wouldn’t work for us. The first time she slept through the night I woke up with sun streaming through the windows and my immediate reaction was that she died during the night, because my breasts were extremely full of milk. I had to express a little milk just so that she could latch on that morning. After that night we moved her into the room that was her nursery. So try a few things out, then decide what works for you and politely ignore what anyone else is telling you to do. Including me, lol.
Kathy says
I think the last time I wore blue eyeshadow was in middle school. Or some other time for a dance performance, but never just because. But I just got the Urban Spectrum palette for Valentine’s day and I CAN’T WAIT to play with the blues and greens!!!
Gee says
It’s got to be cinnamon hearts…the best!
Karen says
My favorite Valentine’s candy is chocolate covered cherries. My husband always gets me a box of cherries hand-dipped in milk and dark chocolate. Yummo!
Susan T. says
I live in a ski resort town and I don’t ski. Lol! I don’t even like winter! Lucky for me it’s been super warm this winter and we have hardly any snow in town. The snow on the ski hills is apparently great right now though so if anyone is looking for a ski vacation head to the Canadian Rockies. 🙂
Maribel D. says
Hi Karen, you have Great skin!
Lisa Brown says
What’s your favorite Valentine’s candy: Anything chocolate 🙂
marta says
Enjoy your Valentine’s Day!

Lisa says
I love chocolate! Never been skiing or snowboarding… ?
Michelle says

Nicole says
Three types of makeup that I never wear are bronzer, lip liner, and lip primer.
Jen says
I last listened to live music last night… I live across the street from a bar that has a patio with I’ve music on the weekends, so I get to listen to stuff while still being lazy at home.

Coline T. says
My favorite Valentine’s candy is the Reese’s Peanut butter cup hearts 😀
LizR says
Blue eyeshadows?oih last time wore it once back in 2007 (I even took pic of myself) and sent to my BF back then we were still getting to know each other,he said good things and still remember to this day (aaww…blushing). I honestly can never lip gloss (coz it’s always gone in few seconds) and bronzer (I cant do it right and feel like too much on it or not showing enough)

BJW says

Anastassia says

Alona Y says
Lately I’ve been wearing a really rich, deep navy blue right on the lash line instead of eyeliner, I tried it one day and it’s just been working out so well!
Antonia says
I never wear foundation (unless I’m experiencing major skin issues). I never curl my lashes (I think I’ve tried it twice in my entire life). I never wear fake eye lashes (though I do want to try eyelash extension).
Virginia says
I did a pale blue eye shadow with gold and a cat eye a few year ago. It sounds weird, but it looked pretty cool and mod.
Sidra Vitale says
Three types of makeup I never wear:
brow makeup in powder form (I prefer brow mascara, gels, or pencils)
lip primer
does hairspray count as makeup?
Lizett Juarez says
I never wear bronzer, bb creams, or false eyelashes
Amy says
I never ski or snowboard!
Ambritt says
I actually love blue eyeshadow! It fun to pair with greens to create a mermaidy kind of look. I think there are no rules to makeup if you like blue eyeshadow then rock it!
Heather L says
Amen to no rules! The only rule in my book: break the rules!
Seddon says
I was just at a conference at a ski resort but was too busy to ski. 🙁 so the last time I ski’d was 2008– so sad.
I never wear bronzer because I am way way too pale!
Shelly says
I wish I could find a new HG mascara. I loved MAC’s Plushlash and it was discontinued. I haven’t found anything I like as much yet and I’ve tried quite a few! Even the MAC rep’s suggestion for a replacement. Booooo
Jade Goncalves says
When was the last time you wore blue eyeshadow?
The last time was a few years ago at a friend’s party
Rita Wiebner says
I wore blue eyeshadow this week! It was wonderful 🙂
Cindy says
Saw Public Image Ltd last November in NYC . . . I go to live music shows often but try to avoid too many in January, February, and March because of SNOW. I hate losing $$ if I can’t go to the shows because of the weather!
Three types of makeup I never wear? Bronzer (I’m SUPER pale and a bronzer would just be WRONG), sheer foundation (uh, hello? What is the point?? Coverage is key!), and sheer lipgloss (again, what is the point? If it’s not bright it ain’t right! LOL!!) Happy Valentine’s Day! 🙂
judyo says
i listen to music every time i am:

Makyla says
I’ve never been skiing or snowboarding, but it’s on my to do list! Hope you have a great weekend, Karen! God Bless!
Olivia M says
The last time I wore blue eyeshadow was a few days before the end of January. Got really excited and wore the shadow up to my brow. Felt inspired by makeup I saw on Magdalena Frackowiak
Maria Therese says
I have not gone skiing or snowboarding this season, but I went ice skating twice before there was too much snow on the pond, and it was three years since last time it was cold enough t o go ice skating..
LizzyLovesSatan says
My fav valentines candy is CHOCOLATE! Of course 😛

Kayla Han says
My sweet friend surprised me with flowers today for Valentine’s Day. I am single this year and was touched by the sweet gesture 🙂
jeanie says
home stretch!!! Excited for you, Karen!
Mary W says
My favorite Valentines candy is dark chocolate – preferably Ghiradelli. Nestle, Hershey and Godiva use child labor to harvest cocoa. I choose to boycott any chocolate supplier who refuses to certify their products as free of coercive labor practices, child labor, and human trafficking.
Dora says
Happy Valentine’s weekend! I’ve actually never gone skiing nor snowboarding because I’m too afraid I’d hurt myself. 🙂
The last live concert I went to was Florence and the Machine at the Hollywood Bowl.
Sandy says
Just think next year you will be dressing your sweet pea up in hearts and flowers. I had the bassinet right next to our bed for easy feeding. And as to blue eye shadow I always think of Princess Diana and her makeup disaster on that televised interview.
Kim Pincombe Cole says
Happy Valentine’s Day!
The last time I listened to live music was just last weekend – we were celebrating my birthday & a great live band played at the last bar we were at!
latanya says
the last time I heard live music was 2 years ago
Kris says
We’re having a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for V Day and it’s 18 degress out so nobody feels like going out 🙂
Christina says
I never wear blush, bronzer, or highlighter.
Janie says
Hi Karen! Hey this is random but if you want to buy your baby something other than carter’s, I’d check out the offspring baby clothes. It is so soft aND the cotton feels high quality. They have it in amazon for great prices. ?? I feel like I’ve bought so many baby clothes for my two kids and I just recently fouND that brand. Little me is also a good brand too. Happy valentine’s!
Kara says
I wore NARS outremer this past week.
Jean says
I’m trying to sell my unused makeup. Hopefully that will get me 50 bucks. Lol.
Lisemarie says
Happy Valentine’s Day! I love candy, so Valentine’s is one of my favorite holidays. My favorite Valentine’s Day candy is made by See’s Candy. It’s their heart-shaped chewy red hots, super cinnamon-y and very cute. Sadly they are sold only once a year and are very popular, they sell out very quickly and I haven’t been able to catch them for years. Boo. Still a favorite tho.
Lulu says
I never wear blue eyeshadow. I feel like it’s the only color that is so unflattering for me…
Lynn T. says
I was at Super Bowl City for part of Matt Nathanson’s performance.
Pretty cool, wish i was able to see One Republic and Alicia Keys as well.
Brittany says
I never wear blush, foundation, or concealer. Previously I could get away with not wearing them because my acne was really infrequent. Lately, with stress from all aspects of my life compounding and the monthly joy of womanhood, I really should get into foundation and concealer… I don’t have good luck with finding any makeup bases that are a decent match.
Amy Z. says
Thanks for the giveaway!
Rachel R. says
Happy Saturday, Karen and BG! The last time I wore blue eyeshadow was three days ago. I wore the dark blue and aqua shades from the Nyx Avant Pop Pallette in Surreal My Heart. I wore them on my upper and lower lids and they look fabulous.
Lamisse says
Hi Karen! I don’t think I’ve ever gone full on blue eyeshadow, but I did recently smudge the blue MUFE Aqua Matic under my water line and over my lash line paired with a deep red lip to mimic the look Mario Dedivanovic did on KKW for their makeup demos! Hope you, el hub, and BG have a good first Valentines together!
chickie brewer says
I’m kind of scared to try new athletic things… Although I do enjoy riding bikes and joging to stay in shape.
Sarah Sq. says
Three types of makeup I never wear: Foundation, concealer and brow anything! I was blessed with good skin!
Makai says
The last time I sat down to hear live music was just a couple weekends ago when I participated in my adult music student recital! It’s so much fun to listen and appreciate live music, especially knowing the heart and soul the student put into it.
shanii says
I don’t typically Contour. I think people are kinda doing overkill with Contouring now.
T says
Last live music: Bruno Mars concert! He was great!
Janetta says
Any chocolate will do for me on V-Day ❤️
Tracy Robertson says
I never wear bronzer. I tried it once and it looked like spots of dirt caked on my face. So either I am too fair skinned or I totally put it on wrong, I never tried again. I never wear foundation but I wear tinted moisturizer. I never wear lip liner, maybe I’ve been lucky so far that I don’t have many fine lines around my mouth so lipstick doesn’t bleed without it, so I don’t see the point of that extra step for me.
Nlm8 says
Happy Valentines Day, Karen and Tabs!
Im all about Hershey’s Hugs but really really LOVE Easter candy. Hello marshmallow bunnies! Wishing you all the best with the arrival of your little one!
Deb says
My favorite Valentine’s candy is anything as long as it’s CHOCOLATE!
Icequeen81 says
Tinted moisturizers,
I’m still a bit mad cause I ordered makeup ( handmade) and for a second time I didn’t get it, The first time the girl sent me a replacement wich I got now I was so excited to get it and is lost again, she offered a replacement but I think is not fair for her. Somebody at the post office is losing my stuff or stealing it. One time ok second time is suspicious.
patricia caradonna says
I really enjoy milk and white chocolate. I need to eat the chocolate early in the day or the caffeine and sugar keep me up at night.
Susan P. says
I am excited to get tickets to see Pentatonix in April and am taking my friend, daughter and her boyfriend. We love the A cappella sound of the group and they all seem like nice people.
Amanda says
My fave Valentine’s Day candy are Godiva dark chocolate covered strawberries!
Alix says
Coloring my hair lilac this weekend!
JCarbonel says
blue eyeshadow is trending, and we’ve gone way past the 90’s back into the 80’s. I’m okay with that lol.
Heather L says
As someone who was a teen in the 80s (good times!!) I am too! I am so been-there-done-that about neutrals and nudes: now I only wear them to work. Love my bright colors and so glad to see more variety in the stores!
Maria says
The last time I wore blue eye shadow was a few years ago. I’m yet to find a shade of blue that doesn’t look terrible on me.
Daniela says
I was at a Florence & The Machines concert last December in Munich. It was a really great show and Florence was nice and nearly approachable. Much much better than 3 years ago in Frankfurt where the stage setting was really nice but she seemed to be nearly arrogant.
Unfortunately she didn’t play my favourite song “Queen of Peace”.
Brian says
My favorite Valentine’s day candy are the pink, red, and white M&Ms. Plus I love trying the new flavors that they release!
Nikki says
I never wear primer, foundation, or bronzer.
Amara Morgan says
I haven’t been snowboarding this season.. YET. SO EXCITED!
Alice says
The three kinds of makeup I never wear:
1. Foundation (my skin can’t breath)
2. Bronzer (too much trouble!)
3. Eyeshadow (also too much trouble!)
There’s definitely more (I’m a lazy, blush-and-mascara type of girl), but those are the major three.
Jennifer Pham says
Hello,
Congrats on the almost-born baby! I’ve never gone snowboarding and the last time I wore blue eyeshadow was yesterday (trying out the new Milani Everyday Eyes smoky palette).
Quimerula says
No skiing for me yet.
Jessie C. says
Yes we are going to ski this weekend.
Sabrina says
I’m very jealous of your relaxing Saturday! I just got in from running a 5k (I’m trying to shave my time down before I do my first actual race) and I want to lay down for the rest of my life.
No exciting V-day plans here. Maybe I’ll treat myself to blueberry pancakes..oh la la.
Al says
Thanks for the giveaway, Karen! 🙂 Have fun getting things ready for BG! I remember really enjoying figuring out where the crib and stuff was going to go just before my little one was born.
Sarah says
We’re snowboarding in a few weeks! So excited!
Amanda says
I’ve never been snowboarding or skiing, but I want to learn how to surf in the worst way! It’s on my bucket list. Good luck with your last-minute preparations. It will all come together. You’re more ready than you realize.
Whitney says
I wore blue eyeshadow in New Year’s Eve! Electric blue from the MUFE 15 pan palette. ?
Trish says
Have a wonderful valentines weekend!
Laura says
I have never gone skiing or snowboarding. I’m afraid of heights, so getting me on the ski lift is never going to happen.
Almu says
The one and only time I wore blue eyeshadow was when I attended a self-make up master class in a MAC store. It was my first real contact with the make up world!
y. says
blue eyeshadow never…only eyeliner probably in the summer
Denay says
The three kinds of makeup I never wear are primers, glitter and nail polish!
Fran says
I wear blue eyeshadow quite often — blue-violet is one of my favorite colors for eyeshadow 🙂
I wish I listened to live music as often! The last time I went to a concert was probably 15 years ago — terrible for a music lover! I did put $1 in a banjo case in Philadelphia’s Suburban Station last month, though — there was a guy playing great banjo while we waited for trains in a crowded terminal at rush hour, and it made the wait so much more pleasant 🙂
Connie says
I purchased the NARS Velvet Matte the other day.. And I find it *just* okay. I definitely don’t think it’s worth the $44 ;(
Dawn says
I never wear bronzer, eye shadow primer or mascara!
Chaye says
I never wear lip liner bronzer or foundation
Nataya says
Happy Valentine! My fave Valentine sweet is chocolate of course, could be any kind of 🙂
Allison says
I never wear a highlight, eyeliner, or contour/bronzer and I would love to start! It looks more sophisticated when done right! 🙂
India says
Three types of makeup I never wear would be contour, highlight and under eye concealer. I just don’t have the time to contour and highlight but when I do, I love it, and as for under eye concealer, I just get a little lazy in the morning and just take some foundation under there.
Taylr says
So excited for this giveaway! I never wear bronzer, primer or eyeshadow most of the time. Never enough time 😉
Joselyn Hernandez says
I’ve never worn fake eyelashes. I don’t know if I’d like it very much. Tutorials I see with it all look great, but not sure if it is for me 🙂
Michelle ComesLast says
I never wore eyeshadow when I was younger (high school in the 80’s). I have a pretty navy shade in a palette but haven’t gotten around to using it. I seldom wear lip gloss. At least not the way they intend. I like the Dior lip maximizer, and use it as a treatment in the morning. I also have a couple of Buxom lip plumper creams, and I put them on as a pre-treatment that matches my lipstick. The majority of the time, I just keep the Dior in my purse. I’m more of a lipstick girl. It should do the job or they didn’t do a good job formulating the color.
Amoure Jones says
Hey Karen,
Happy Saturday! Three types of makeup I never wear are: stick foundation, lip primer, and glitter.
Also, my favorite type of Valentine’s candy is white chocolate stars from Godiva. They’re amazing.
Denise S says
I wear blue eyeshadow every now and then. But not bright blue or baby blue. Just navy blue and I apply it very sparingly.
Eileen says
The makeup I wear the least often is mascara. My lashes are so short, mascara doesn’t make much difference.
Jennifer says
I never wear bronzer or contouring products, they just look ridiculous on me.
My favorite candy for Valentine’s Day are cinnamon red hots, which are becoming more difficult to find every year. I also like the chewy Brach’s peppermint heart taffies. And the sugar coated cinnamon bears. And chocolate truffles and chocolate covered strawberries and orange slices.
p.s. you’ve got an extra “t” in educational. It’s okay. Pregnancy brain is a real thing.
Sylvia says
I have never skied or snowboarder, but it looks fun!
Kathy T says
I don’t really wear lip gloss, brow gel, and shimmery blushes
Kimmy says
Oh my goodness! I would love this sooooooo much! My bday is the 23rd and Sephora is my favorite place to shop. Thanks so much for the chance and a very Happy Valentine’s Day to you! XOXO
Jordi says
Adult live music? I think it was Bon Jovi on his tour two years ago.
Kid music? My kids get much more live music than we do – we saw “our” favorite band just a few weeks ago.
Nicole Anderson says
I never wear bb or cc creams ever and I never wear false eyelashes I don’t like them at all xxoo happy Valentine’s day
Arleen A. Gallagher says
Just had my 75th birthday, and Sephora is my favorite store. With the wonderful variety of skin care, newest products, and friendly service, my skin is still lovely and with my light touch and love of cosmetics most people don’t believe my age. Women don’t fall off a cliff at 50. We still enjoy fashion, makeup, and looking and staying young at heart.
Patricia Kahrs says
Wow, well I was at a wonderful dinner in the local botanical garden, and they had two singers from the opera show up – it was fantastic! Teared up immediately…listening to live music does that to me, especially vocals. What a wonderful night!
Effie says
Does navy blue eyeshadow count? If so, two days ago.
Cherie says
Lip primer – I find that it does not work. I’d rather go for a long wear lipstick.
Happy Valentines day to you and BG!

Anna T. says
I don’t wear lip primer, bronzer or fake lashes (last one is not really makeup).
Never gone snowboarding or skiing.

Haha – I was talking to my hairdresser about blue eye shadow this afternoon! Last time I wore blue eyeshadow was probably 1976.
Aviva says
I recently bought a blue glitter from Inglot and I’m looking forward to wearing it!
Kirsten says
When was the last time you listened to live music? Probably in a club a couple of years ago. I haven’t been going out much lately.
What’s a rumor you recently heard? That a certain actor’s charity campaign is being done to raise his profile and not because he cares about the charity.
What are three types of makeup (lip primer, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, etc.) you never wear? Face primer, setting spray, lip exfoliator. (okay, not technically makeup, but…)
Have you gone skiing or snowboarding yet this year? Nope. Probably won’t either. I’m not a snow bunny.
When was the last time you wore blue eyeshadow? It’s been awhile, but I bought some recently, so I should change that.
What’s your favorite Valentine’s candy? Chocolate anything.
Olivia Lo says
I love Sephora! Just tried the Sephora Collection Tranquil Contour shade and I love it!!
Inspersia says
The makeup items I never wear are liquid eyeliner, liquid lipstick and fake eyelashes. I’ve never mastered liquid eyeliner and don’s see the need since I’m not into large wings. Liquid lipstick seems like it would just dry the crap out of my lips, and lashes are too much work for me and I don’t need them for the everyday looks I go for.
Nicole says
I have never been able to make blue eyeshadow work on me. I did, however, have a perfect dark shade of navy applied by a Nars MUA along with a really pretty sparkly champagne color that looked BOMB. Haven’t been able to recreate it myself, though.
Marina says
My favorite Valentine’s Day candy are those delicious sour gummy lips! They’re so good and the pink and red kisses are perfectly themed for the holiday. Hope yours is great!
Allie L. says
I love any kind of sour gummy candy for Valentine’s day, but man! A Sephora gift card sounds WAY sweeter! 😉 Thanks for the opportunity!!
Kecia S. says
The last time I listened to live music was back in October when I saw Ricky Martin in concert. I’d never seen him perform live before then; he’s FANTASTIC! I shook my bon-bon & sang my heart out (in English & Spanish) with the best of them.
Lisa Foster says
3 types of makeup I never wear: blush, primer of any kind, and false lashes.
Lisa M. says

Sanam says
I’ve never worn lip primer, BB cream, or CC cream either.

My favorite candy is a Kit Kat bar!!

Mardi says
I rarely wear blue eyeshadow. It doesn’t seem to suit me. A pity cos I like navy blues in eyeshadow.
Michelle Castagne says
My favorite Valentine candy is See’s Candy.
Deb says
Something to consider for BG’s baths: it’s much easier to do them at the sink if you’re kitchen set up allows for it. Much easier on your back! Just make sure to set everything up within arms reach (one handed!) before you start.
I wore blue eye shadow a few days ago ( for the first time since the 80’s) and couldn’t believe how much my brown eyes popped!
BB says
I never wear lip primer, regular primer (unless it’s already in a BB cream) or loose powder….almost never wear falsies.

coriwestphal at gmail dot com
Ashley says
Happy Valentine’s Day (eve)!
I never wear any type of primer, although I probably should! I also don’t usually wear bronzer, because I’m afraid of going overboard and looking too orange-y.
I haven’t worn blue eyeshadow since middle school… maybe it’s worth another try?
Lindsey says
I did go skiing this year!! …And got a very bruised tail bone 🙁 Haha I’m not very good yet
Nina says
The last time I saw live music was when I went to visit Broadway in NYC within the past month. I saw both Disney’s Aladdin: The Musical and Allegiance (George Takei’s musical). It was kind of funny actually because Lea Salonga stars in Allegiance and she was the singing voice in the original Aladdin animated movie…..everyone was so talented and the live singing and musical orchestration were such nice treats for me…..Happy Valentines Day!
Catherine says
The last live music I saw was the first week of January when I was in Jamaica on a trip with my favorite band. 🙂
Karen says
•When was the last time you listened to live music?
There was a band at the bar I was at the other night. Soooo a couple weeks ago?
•What’s a rumor you recently heard?
Recently heard that they were going to take away some of my benefits which was a bit of a bummer. Trying to ignore that rumor though!
•What are three types of makeup (lip primer, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, etc.) you never wear?
I have a lip primer but never use (tastes weird). Not a big fake tanner/bronzer person either. And the third would be eyelash curlers. Unless I’m going to wear falsies, I never curl my eyelashes!
•Have you gone skiing or snowboarding yet this year?
Nope! But I don’t live anywhere close to the mountains right now 🙁
•When was the last time you wore blue eyeshadow?
I actually have a really nice blue that goes well with blue jeans. Can’t remember what it’s called but it’s a lighter metallic kind of shade which I love wearing. I wore that last in like…November?
•What’s your favorite Valentine’s candy?
I love candy hearts (I know! gross…) and those chocolate covered cherry things…
Emily L says
My favorite Valentine’s Day candy would have to be milk chocolate covered cherries or any of the Ferrero Rocher stuff!
Lauren says
i sadly haven’t been skiing since college
Michelle says
The last time I heard live music was in December. I went with my parents to see an imitation of the Bee Gees in Las Vegas. Despite being imitators, they were pretty good.
Maureen says
Ghirardelli Double Chocolate brownies made with the “thick” option. I’m 25 weeks pregnant and a box of chocolates just won’t cut it. Happy Valentine’s Day!
CL says
My favorite candy is Russell Stover Millionaires, which are made of caramel, pecans, and chocolate. Hope they are discounted on Monday!
Aarone Mawdsley says
i went to a concert a few weeks ago
BlackAsphodel says

Maria says
I love blue eye shadow! Royal blue I smoke out and pair teal shimmers with golds and soft Browns 😉
Sandy says
Hi Karen! Three times of makeup I never use would have to be brow pomade, contour powder, and false eyelashes. Other than that I love makeup. I use bronzer all over kind of like a contour I guess. Happy Valentine’s Day to you and thanks for the chance at the giveaway.
ANNA NGO says
I heard a rumor that Vancouver house price is gonna down, but waiting for a year already, it’s still a rumor !

Cece says
I’ve never been skiing or snowboarding before, but hopefully sometime in the next winter!
Isabella says
Last time I wore blue eyeshadow was in the 90’s. I was around 11 and light blue and pink was really popular. Come to think of it, isn’t that the colors of the year?
Paula says

-Paula
Aenea says
Maltesers and toblerone

I never wear lip gloss, concealer, or bronzer. They don’t make a bronzer light enough for my pale skin.
Stephanie says
I’m so lucky to live in New Orleans – we heard an awesome jazz band last weekend. So much fun!
Claudia Campbell says
I love any thing chocolate. Especially, if it has nuts. But I don’t wait for Valentine’s Day.

Ahhh! My Laura Mercier FF foundation is almost out! The bottle isn’t clear so it always takes me by surprise. Fingers crossed 🙂
I never wear bold eyeshadows (gold, blue, green, etc), any cream eyeshadows, or a lip primer. Wouldn’t have ever thought about a lip primer if you hadnt just mentioned it lol.
Eden says
The last time I listened to live music was in January for Adam Lambert and Melanie Martinez. Such a great show!
Sarah W says
Hmm…the only primer I ever use is eyeshadow, so I guess no lip or face primers. I never use lip pencils (dry!) or contour either, really. I also love the look of liquid eyeliner, but cannot do it myself, and I never really use liquid lipsticks, either.
Julia Reyes says
i never wear lip primer
I LOOOOOVE valentines day themed pastries
Mariel Long says

Is it a bad or a good thing I can’t think of a third product?!

Favorite candy us a toss up between Sweet Tarts and the Valentine M&Ms that come in red, white and pink.
MelodyJ says
I love Ghirardelli chocolate candy.. I just wish I could find more of there products locally. They also have good baking mixes and chocolate chips.
Emily says
I wore blue eyeshadow as an accent eyeliner a few months ago 🙂
NFJ says
What are three types of makeup (lip primer, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, etc.) you never wear?
Great Question!
I never wear any mascara which is not black, any other colors are a NO GO! Tried when I was a teen but instead of being a fun touch of color it’s too weird on me!
I never wear BB cream because for some reason there is NO COLOR or brand on this planet or which looks natural on me. It’s either pasty white alien or beach burned Barbie and I have tried A LOT of them. I love the idea just hasn’t worked out for me.
Lastly,
I never wear lip liner, I wear the clear outter lip lock penicl and it works like a charm!
Laarni says
Gah I can’t even remember if I’ve ever worn blue eyeshadow! Shocking! =O
Aurelie Red says
Hi Karen !
So… I NEVER wear bronzer, lip gloss (too shiny !) and I never curl my lashes !

It’s been about 1 week since I heard a live show.

The last (and only) time I went skiing was back in high school on a school trip. I’d rather watch ski sports on TV. 😉
adriana says
The last time I wore eyeshadow I was 18.
Silvia says
Hi! 🙂 I never wear bronzer because I’m too pale (and I love it :p ) and tinted moisturizer because I don’t find my shade ( always same story: I’m too pale)
Amber Y says
My favourite valentines candy is hers Hershey kisses.
Lena says
I don’t know how to ski or snowboard
Ciara says
Wishing you Karen, El Hub and Baby Girl a wonderful Valentine’s Day, as well as the same to all of your readers!!!
When was the last time you listened to live music?
My last was seeing Luke James, an R&B singer in concert at SOB’s in NYC this prior summer. SOB’s is an insititution, and he’s just fine and super talented.
What’s a rumor you recently heard?
Hmmm, the last rumor I heard turned out to be true, and shows how much of a Harry Potter geek I actually am. J.K. Rolling is actually releasing the script for the stage play of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in book form and I’m so excited!!!
What are three types of makeup (lip primer, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, etc.) you never wear?
Eyeliner, lashes and lip stains. The first two cause I’m challenged in the application department, not for lack of desire to. The last because I haven’t found a formula I like that doesn’t make my lips feel like death.
Have you gone skiing or snowboarding yet this year?
Haven’t done either. Both seem like a very good way to break a leg for an uncoordinated person like myself, so I have been too chicken but I do want to go snow tubing with my peeps next winter when there’s more time to plan.
When was the last time you wore blue eyeshadow?
Never. Bright blue shadow always reminds me of MiMi from the Drew Carey show so I have been a little hesitant, and I’m still looking for the right navy to do a great smoky eye.
What’s your favorite Valentine’s candy?
Some good old Godiva. Still my favorite chocolate and I’ve tried Vosages and Jacque Torres and all of the other “finer” aka more expensive brands you could think of and I still go back to Lady Godiva!!!
Gina B. says
Hello MOM!!!
Gosh I thought the next post after your fb post would be that you’ve given birth…. wow this must be a trip Karen. I’d be so freaked out right now. So excited for you.
I just heard live music last night, but they weren’t that good. I always wear primer, hate gloss unless I’m just chilling. Then I don’t mind it. I’m sitting here in my apartment freezing, my heat is out. Blue eyeshadow is a no do…. ever…..
anusha says
I never wear lip primer, bronzer and face primer
Julie Murphy says
I like turtles
nakikke says
This year will be my first Valentine’s day in almost ten years that I can truly enjoy chocolate. I developed a food allergy to it back in 07 and it just went away in November 2015. I am so excited to be able to eat my favorite candy again.
Angela P. says
Hello! Happy Valentine’s Day! I love coming and picking a question to answer. It’s fun.. and it makes me think a little. The last live music I heard, or rather saw, was a Tori Amos concert in Red Bank, NJ in 2009. She is my favorite. I have seen her live so many times, starting as a young teen in 1998! I went with a girlfriend, when my first born daughter was about 6 months old. I haven’t been to a concert since. But thinking about this, makes me think that it’s been WAY too long. There is nothing like live music.. especially when it’s Tori Amos. She is amazing. My friend who I went with, wasn’t familiar with her music but came with me, and was blown away. She has this incredible energy when you see her live. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. Thanks for reminding me of that experience.. Mommy needs to get out and go to a concert! <3
Cyndi says
It’s been a few years since we saw live music…. My husband and I used to go to concerts all the time, but that was before we had kids. lol. And the last time I wore blue eyeshadow was in college… we had a decade dance so I rocked that blue eyeshadow!! 🙂
Leslie says
The last time I saw live music was last month when I went to the symphony. Thanks for the giveaway.

Tunisia says
I went to a Valentine’s Day Dinner last night at a catering hall thrown by my husband’s company at a banquet hall on Long Island..it was the first time in months since putting on full makeup in since giving birth five months ago. I do love makeup and because I did wear some false eyelashes (I double checked by googling the tips for reusing falsies – your site was the one I clicked on since Im familiar with it) and now I want to wear them on a regular basis (once I go back to work in two weeks) since my natural ones are wimpy but I know the feeling of how dramatic it’ll look once I get tired of wearing them (if I even do). 🙂 Anyway congrats to you!
Cathy says
I have a lip primer from Urban Decay and I never use it- it’s good for some lipsticks but for most it makes it way too matte and I don’t like when there is no slip. I’ve skied all my life and we are going to Colorado in three weeks!
Bridget says
I actually wear blue eyeshadow a lot. I like to use it as a contour shade in my crease paired with a slightly shimmery taupe or very light brown like MAC honesty or UD Suspect. I blend a lot and pair it with blue eyeliner on my waterlines.
em says
I’ve never tried using blue eyeshadow before. Not sure if I could even pull that off
Jennifer says
I just wore MAC Contrast, which is a dark blue shadow as eyeliner. It was so pretty!
Kristi says
Karen, positive and pretty vibes for you and baby girl today! 🙂

I have stick straight lashes and must always use waterproof to maintain the curl.

It is so cold where I am, right now it’s 20 degrees. Tonight its going down to 13 and that’s not with the wind chill factored in. Happy Valentine’s Day to you.

I used to love wearing blue eyeshadow! (It probably didn’t even suit me though, hehe) Can we make it a thing again? 🙂 Some makeup products I’ve never worn are lip primer, liquid lipstick and tinted mascara.

I never wear bronzer, lipliner, and brow make up (my brows are defined enough as they are!).
Nur says
I really love peach blush ! so natural the glow 😀
Alicee says
Last time I heard live music was in November 2013.
I’m not big on blue eyeshadow, but I sometimes wear it on my lower lash line and I’ve really been enjoying teal eyeshadow on my lower lashline. The only blueish shade I’ve been enjoying on my lids is Naked Smoky’s Dagger with MAC’s Soft Brown in the crease and Naked Smoky’s Combust in the inner half of the crease.
Rita A says

Katrina says
I never wear liquid eyeliner, false eyelashes, or lip primer.

Kelsey says
Hi Karen! I am soooo excited for you and your baby! I just had my 3rd (a boy) 3 weeks ago, so I am firmly in the new baby stage, too! I guess we will be doing this together. ;). Labor sucks but you can do iiiiittt!!! And then you’ll have your beautiful baby girl! Oh I think you asked for hospital snack suggestions a couple days ago? I like saltine crackers, because they’re light, and easy to digest. Heavy foods have a tendency to come back up…because your body is having a baby, and not focused on processing food. :P. Anyways, super excited for you…I can’t wait till your baby is here!
Dominique says
See’s candy has got to be my favorite for valentine’s ❤❤❤❤

Joyce says
Current obsession: the color red. It’s so bold and beautiful.
Ren says
I wore blue eyeshadow this week. One of my favorite palettes of all time is the Tarte Aqualillies disk. I’ve hit pan on almost all of the eyeshadow shades except the blue, so I’m trying to even it out by experimenting with the blue shade. So wish they’d release this palette again.
Alexis says
Have you tried out the 2016 Sephora Pantone Modern Watercolors palette? I’m so ready for bright spring pastels!
Emily says
Chocolate! Especially dark.
Joni Corak says
ooh, under the wire! I forgot to leave a message yesterday! okay, so three things I never wear:
1. eyeshadow. I know I know, what kind of lady can’t manage at least a smudge of shimmer, right? unfortunately, this one. I get lost with layers and blending and brushes and it makes me kind of sad. I recently bought the tartlette bloom palette, though, with the intention of doing some experimenting, so we shall see!
2. bronzer. I’ve recently started playing with different types of highlighters and I’m liking that so long as I stay subtle, but with bronzer t doesn’t seem to matter how light a hand I try to use, I end up looking like an oompah loompa. I’m super pale and naturally brushy, so everything just looks so ORANGE on me!
this brings me to:
3. foundation!! I can’t say I never wear it because I do use the OG bareminerals loose foundation whenever I take the time to get entirely dolled up, (I’m late for literally everything, so it’s hard for me to make makeup time sometimes!), but I absolutely never ever in my entire almost thirty three years have ever been able to find and apply a liquid foundation that didn’t make me look and feel like a little girl who just got her face painted at a carnival!! it’s awful! I can’t even find a bb/cc/tinted moisturizer that I like! either the color is off, (oompah loompa!) or I feel all thick and suffocated.
the problem when I DO wear my bareminerals, tho, is that I need to try to bring a little color back in with blush and bronzer, and, well, you’ve heard how I do with bronzer! I think sometimes I’m a lost cause at girl-ing… but ooh do I love a good lipstick! 🙂
p.s. good luck, miss! BG is coming! I can feel it! ??
Sara munIz says
I never wear
1. Lip primer because have never heard or discovered lip primer yet lol.
2.Bronzer because I feel like my face is already dark and I really don’t know how to apply it.
4. Concealer because I just use foundation on my undereye area .
Shelby says
I’ve never been skiing or snowboarding! But my mother used to ski all the time in her younger years – she and her second husband were even married in Park City, Utah on a ski trip.
Hillary says
The last time I wore blue eyeshadow was near Halloween. I was trying out a Cleopatra look I was doing for my mom for her work costume contest.

Oh boy, I’m having a very stressful day worrying about things that aren’t in my control. I think I’ll go out for some chocolate! Haha, nothing else controls my nerves 🙂

I never wear highlighter, lip primer, or contour creams. The last time I wore blue eye shadow, I was in the sixth grade, over 27 years ago. Thinking back, I really have improved my techniques but for middle school, I was rocking that blue eye shadow like no one had ever worn anything so empoweringly grown up and gorgeous!
Nikolina says
The last time I listened to live music was like a year ago…. lol

My favorite Valentine’s day candy is Conversation Hearts. Which reminds me that I should go pick some up today – you have to love discounted candy the day after the holiday!
Jamie says
I’m thinking about finally investing in a humidifier as winters in the Northeast always do a number on my skin.
Hope you had a nice Valentine’s Day!

tamara r says
I haven’t seen live music in a while, but I’m going to see Metric next week! Yay!
Pamela Haddad says
I tried dark blue shadow recently , cuz I was inspired by one of your blogs. Wrong move for me. It was a complete fail. My eyes are light, so it made them seem very tiny and by the end of the day, it smeared. It looked like I had 2 black eyes. It was pretty funny. I will just stick to my neutrals with navy eyeliner. Hope you had an awesome weekend!
Ann says

Sending you tons and tons of positive thoughts, Karen!

I don’t typically reach for cream products like bronzer and eyshadow. I do appreciate cream blush though.

Elise Gingerich says
I Am 43, I Don’t Wear Make Up, And I Have NEVER Liked Wearing Make Up, Because I Am From The Mid West! What Am I SUPPOSED To Wear Make Up For, The Farm Animals? The Farm Crops? My Favorite Candy Right Now? Pudding, I Like Pudding.
Jessica says
Ok, three types of makeup I never wear: tinted moisturizers (because I’m too oily, and they slip n’ slide all over my face); bronzer (because I’m light with cool undertones, and everything looks straight up orange on me); and lash primers.
Lauren Still says
I’m a teacher and am trying to broaden my makeup horizons! I don’t want to always have a plain-jane vibe!
Annalee says
I like keeping my makeup very minimal. No lip primers or lipsticks for me!
Alexandra Keniston says
Hi I just recently started reading your blog and I have to say you seem so down to earth and so sweet. I think my favorite combo is a bare face that is very luminous and a bold lip.
Michelle says
Three makeup items I never wear are liquid foundations cuz they feel weird to me, blue-pink lippies cuz they look awful on me, and brow pencils. I stick to powders or i look like I have caterpillars on my face.
Fallulah says
Three products I never use:
1. false lashes
2. eyebrow wax

Oliver says

CHOCOLATE
Clemence says
Not much of a lip product fanatic in general!
Susan C. says
The last live concert I saw was the punk rock band X, who played a small club in Philly last July. What an amazing, energetic show.
Favorite Valentine’s candy would be Neuhaus or Teuscher chocolates (dark preferred) or chocolate-covered strawberries.
I never wear liner on my waterline, false eyelashes or color-correcting concealers. (In fact, half the time I forget concealer at all, but that’s a different story.)
Larissa says
My Favorite Valentine’s candy is actually conversation hearts! they are too cute!
Sharon M says
It’s funny that your picture for this post is of a red lipstick. I’ve been on a hunt for a blue-based red that actually looks good on me!
What makeup don’t I wear? Foundation (even tinted moisturizers make me antsy to wash my face), false eyelashes, bright-coloured eyeliners, anything in peach or coral because both make me look ill, hardly ever use primers of any stripe, no contouring/highlighting products (yet). I’m 56, and have found that using less makeup is more flattering.
Hope you and El Hub had a wonderful V-Day! We had a “new” holiday up here in Canada — Family Day — today, and silly me got up as usual and went to work only to find the parking lot empty and the office closed!
Amy Z. says
I don’t think I’ve ever worn blue eyeshadow! I just got a new navy-blue eyeliner that I’m excited to try out though.
brenda disimone says
Today at sephora i bought the Philosophy emulsion and it smells great

I have never in my life worn blue eye shadow!

I was thinking back to my firstborn and how we often referred to her as BG, just like you are doing now! She’s nine now and I have 2 girls. Enjoy every minute. Love girls! ✌
Isu says
Hi karen. I don’t know if im too late for this.

I really want to try some Tom Ford quads but the price always dissuades me.
Caroline says
Wow, I haven’t worn blue eyeshadow in a longtime. A great look for for some but I’m more of a nude palette gal!
