My mom made me an ice cream cake one birthday. It was a big deal because we lived in the country & the nearest Baskin Robbins was hours away, so it was made from scratch in flavors I picked out. We ate cake outside on the picnic table, cleared the table to inside & left the cake out in the middle of the table. We came back outside & the neighbor’s dog had helped himself to the leftovers!

My most wonderful birthday occurred on my 50th! A surprise party thrown by my MIL at Disneyland’s private Club 33. My sons both worked at D’Land and I THOUGHT I was going to join them for a lunch at one of the restaurants they worked in. I had heard of Club 33 – but never have been able to get in. My husband and I started walking towards my son’s restaurant in New Orleans Square and then my husband pushed the buzzer on the door at Club 33. The rest is a blur – but there were all the people I loved waiting for me in Walt Disney’s Private Room. BEST.BIRTHDAY.EVER. (yes – I’m a Diznoid)

Happiest of Birthdays, Karen —
For my last birthday in December, I had oysters on the half shell for the first time. I’m an adventurous eater, but didn’t think I’d like them. I loved them and now I want them all the time.
But, alas … don’t have that lifestyle at the moment. Oh well! I had macarons, instead of cake!
Mikki says
my favorite type of birthday cake is red velvet!!
Iram says
I ♥ Bare Minerals!
And I really wanna try out those eyelid primers… Gorgeous!
tulips9 says

mattie says
Happy Birthday BE! I think I will have some ice cream tonight in your honor…
Mandy says
Never tried mineral make up, hope to win this!
Sydney says
Happy birthday!
I love bare minerals, but since they are a bit on the pricey side it’s been years since I’ve treated myself to any :/ Their face powders are the best! I love that they don’t make me break out <3 I've never tried their eye products, but those eye primers look ah-maze-ing!
As for cakes… I've never been much of a cake eater. Unless it's home made, or icecream cake, then I MIGHT eat the entire thing. If you put a plain old, store bought cake in front of me though… Not interested. Hmmm does this make me spoiled?? 😉 haha
Have a great day!
Kandice says
My favorite birthday cake is ice cream cake- preferably a mint chocolate chip one from Coldstone!
I love BareMinerals Buxom line- their lipglosses are fab! I hope I’m a winner because I’ve been dying to try the new eyeshadow primers.

Yay for Gemini’s! My bday is June 10th – one day after yours 🙂 I hope you have a great bday weekend!

I am so excited about these eye primers. I hope they are longer lasting than the Buxom shadows which seem to go bad quickly. I am also excited about that Oz liner!!! I wish I could have been in the loop when the original Oz was released.

Meghan says

My best birthday memory was wearing a pale blue party dress when I was about seven… and my mother had to cut all my hair off because I’d tried to cut it myself with safety scissors in school the day before. I looked like a boy in a dress. I could have used all these BE products then!
Shelby says
Happy birthday, Karen!! I personally think June birthdays are the absolute best – mine is coming up too!! 🙂

My favorite type/ flavor birthday cake is a Reese’s Blizzard Ice Cream Cake from DQ (Dairy Queen)! My absolute fav. BE product that I just cannot live without is my bisque!

It is my #1 BE Product!

One BE product that is my stizle right now is the new cleanser. I got it when it launched at QVC and I loooves it! They aired a super-size version during thier QVC anniversary and I was alllll over it. I also really like Mineral Veil. I have it in like 3 versions.
A birthday that was memorable was when I was an RA for the summer. My summer staff took me to dinner and I got one of those big margarita’s from Ruby Tuesday. The glass was hhhhuuugeee!!!! Later that night a RA from my staff during the school year has the same birthday as me and had a party off campus. Let’s just say I got chocolate wasted and played my first game of beer pong. It was a fun night *smirk*

I am loving all the new products lately and cannot wait to try the new pigmented eye primers. The hardest choice will be deciding which one to try first. I would love to win, so then, I would not have to choose! Rock on BE for another 35 years & keep all the great products coming!

I have a question about BE Well Rested, at what point do I apply it? Like a concealer, or after the foundation but before warmth/mineral veil, OR after all these? I did it after foundation but it doesn’t feel right.

It was my dad’s birthday the other day, he turned 51 🙂 I got him this super yummy cake from Goldilocks, a Filipino Bakery, called Braso de Mercedes. It’s like a roll, with the filling inside being made out of egg yolk and other sweet ingredients, and the outside is made out of the eggwhites, light and fluffy. So yummy! You’d have to try it if ever you get the chance to 🙂

The primers look really cool! My favorite BM products would have to be the Mineral Veil SPF20 powder and Buxom (which I think is a BM line) cream eye shadows. I’m obsessed! I have Pug, Collie and Husky, but I definitely want to buy some other colors.
martan says

Christine says
Okay, even more than I love BE, I just love your kitty! Of all the new beauty blogs I’ve discovered lately this one is definitely a favorite because of Mr. Tabs. He looks exactly like my cat at home, but I haven’t seen him at ages because I’m at a university miles away :-(. I suppose Tabs will have to hold me over until I get home to my Bradford :-).
I vote for more posts featuring cosmetics *and* Tabs :D!
Ana says
Ohhhh I would love those primers! Feliz cumpleanos Karen and BM!

Theresa says
I’ve watched the Bare Minerals infomercials about 100 times now, and I’ve always wanted to try them. I have a lot of acne and uneven skin, and I think Bare Minerals would greatly improve the look of my skin, and how gross my face gets in the summer heat, caked with liquid foundation! Happy Birthday to you and your company!

Shannon says
The Bare Minerals skin cleanser . . . I know of all things. . . but, it’s a powder that you activate with water. (Can’t remember the exact name right now.) It is LIFE CHANGING. It gets your skin clean without stripping it, it’s really gentle, smells great and feels like a luxury spa treatment. I <3 that stuff.
Malinda says

I remember when I was in 7th grade when I first learned about MAC Cosmetics. My friend was wearing this gorgeous lipglass called C-Thru that I just had to have! Ever since then I have been in love with makeup. Since that young of an age, I loved experimenting and trust me I have made many mistakes and since I think I have perfected at doing my everyday makeup (with the help of many beauty blogs and youtube gurus – yourself include).
I wish I would have been able to have these blogs help me when I was younger!

One of my most memorable birthdays was when I went to go play laser tag with a group of my friends =)
Lorraine says
My favorite birthday memory was when my father (who worked for an airline) talked the pilot and stewardesses into bringing a little cake to me after the meal! It was pretty neat to have everyone in the airplane sing “Happy Birthday” ….and a little scary too, especially for a 9 year old who had just spilled an entire Coca Cola can on her lap.
Catherine says
I love anything that’s topped with buttercream icing!
Heather says

Recently fell in love with ICE CREAM Birthday cakes! MMMmmmmm
Amista says
I remember up until the age of 14-15 years old, every year on my birthday i would get off the bus at my grandma and grandpa’s because my mom worked late, and their would be a huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY banner hanging in the front yard between two lights posts, lol. I loved it when i was younger but as i got older it started to get embarassing.
Now that im nearly 14 and they have both passed away I wish they still did it – it was the most special thing about all my birthdays. I miss them alot!
Amista says
24** not 14, lol. I was tearing up while remembering this and made a typo.

Happy Birthday to all Gemini’s and Happy Birthday BE!!
Jessica says
Absolutely cannot live without Bare Minerals Well Rested!
Vijaya says
My mom never got me chocolate cake for my birthday, because I was the only one in my family who really liked it. Uh, dude, it’s MY birthday. Also, I never got ice cream cake. =[
Grace says
Happy Birthday to you and me and my mommy and my aunt and my cousin and my niece! LOL…I love June babies!
Meg says
Oooh purdy! BareMinerals seems so…exclusive to me haha, maybe because the only place around here that sells it is a very expensive day spa! I’ve always wanted to try it.
Beale Street Chick says
My daughter turned 8 today. We’re having a pool party Saturday. 🙂
D-nice says
I heart strawberry cake with strawberry cream cheese frosting. I may have been known to finish a whole cake myself….:-)
Debbie says
Awesome pics and great contest! I’m off to check out the rest of your blog now. 🙂
Lisa says
Karen, what a great giveaway! My birthday was June 4th, so Geminis unite! I am a huge BE fan and as a matter of fact, years ago I used to write for a beauty column and I reviewed BE before most people had tried it. And I loved it then and now. I find it to give a flawless coverage for me. LOVIN this contest and LOVIN your blog every day! Thanks again!
Amy says
BareMinerals = love & happiness! I have used their foundation for a long time and would love to try some of their other products!!
Shari says
I love BareMinerals, and I’ve made it a point to get my mom, aunts, cousins, sister, and friends hooked. You’ll think this is strange, but my favorite BareMinerals moment is anytime I take a picture with one of my fellow BareMinerals lovers and our faces all have that same Warmth glow (accentuated and made richer with our various skin tones, of course.)
AnneSky says
June is also my birthday month. I love birthdays because this is the time when people dear to you gives you a special time in their busy lives. The most memorable birthday I’ve ever had is when I gave birth to a lovely baby girl 14 days before my birthday. The best gift I’ve ever received. I hope to win the giveaway so I would have an early birthday gift. Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
Rosie says
i love BE buxom lipglosses. they tingle without making me itchy & they last & last.
PS Happy 35th!!!
Charan says

Claire says
I can’t live without mineral veil!
Cass says
What a great giveaway!
My favorite birthday was this past birthday. My husband flew my mother up to visit and took us out to a fantastic tasting menu dinner. I do not think I have ever been as happy as I was that evening. 🙂
Jessica Leigh says
Woohoo! My birthday is a little later this month. Although I can’t say that I particularly like aging, I do like birthday cake 🙂
Meezy says
Just bought a revlon lipglass in a super pretty peachy color!
Amanda says
I’m a huge sucker for Bare Minerals Buxom lip glosses. Love all the colors especially Sugar!
Judy G. says

Melissa Wagner says
My birthday is coming up really soon, hope I’ll have some yummy devil’s food. 😛
And maybe some bareMinerals makeup!

Melissa says
Watching the Canucks vs Bruins game. Go Canucks go!!
Soo says
I don’t really celebrate my birthdays. my parents would let me have parties when I was younger and had a lot more friends but they didn’t happen too often after middle school. it’s not like /I/ did anything special the day I was born, you know? don’t get me wrong, people wishing me a ‘happy birthday’ is always appreciated and who doesn’t love getting presents? but yeah, I don’t mind just spending my special day with my mom. 🙂
Sally Jane says
Packing and can’t decide what makeup to take and what to leave behind. Story of my life 😛
Marika says
I looooooove red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting 🙂
Erica says
My first and only Bare Minerals product is a foundation sample that my boyfriend got with his skincare purchase (weird). I thought the shade was too dark for me and so I tossed it deep in my drawer, although I do like the quality of it…. I mean, I can’t really test it since the color is off, but it seems to be quite smooth in texture.
Katie says
One of the best birthdays I ever had was when I was living away from home and working nights, and my friends organized a party for me when I got back to my house. They had a cookie cake, all sorts of drinks, and they’d put Hannah Montana sheets on my bed (inside joke) and gotten me a Hannah Montana alarm clock. It was hilarious and so much fun!
auroragyps says
Favorite birthday cake is hard to decide. I’ve had some interesting ones, including Baked Alaska & Black Forest when I was a kid (I was a weird kid). I think my favorite has to be Jello Poke cake with real whipped cream as frosting. I’ve had combos of Strawberry-Banana & Wild Strawberry, Blue Raspberry & Raspberry, & Raspberry & Peach.
Audrey says
My favorite birthday was probably my 12th birthday. I didn’t have a huge birthday party or anything, it was really simple. My mom surprised me and took me out to a nice lunch and afterwards we went and got our nails done, then later we all went to see a movie, then
opened presents and had a delicious homemade birthday cake at home. I loved it.
Magdalene says
Love BE. Happy BDay and many more 🙂
anna says
I hope I win! I wish it was my birthday everyday so I can have cake everyday. =P
Julie says
BE is the only makeup I’ve found I can use without having an allergic reaction. I use the original foundation everyday as a concealer.
Pearl says
My birthday this year was awesome! I got to go to Disneyland!

Tammy Gordon says
BE is the best makeup around. I will never go back to liquid makeup! BE has a great line and there is something for everyone!!
Lisa Gallu says

eryn says
HBD:)
Christie says
I really should be doing something productive around the house… but instead I am reading my favorite blogs 🙂
Christie says
I want a caramel frappuchino!
Mary says
Happy Birthday Karen! According to astrology:
“Geminis born June 9 have a good time in just about any situation and are often the life of the party. These individuals also have a hidden serious side. They are excitable and imaginative, with a great sense of humor. Like most Gemini natives, they are talkative and enjoy a rousing debate.”
Sounds like you!
abbs says
love bare minerals!!! enter me please!
Nou says
I can’t live without the minerial veil… if i’m spelling that correctly… it’s sheer and light weight…
lauretta says
Have yet to try this brand but I’ve heard great things ! 🙂
Kaianne says
My family has always had lemon pound cake for birthdays… I think it’s because it’s the only cake my dad likes and the only one my mom can make! So for birthdays, I always think pound cake with lemony sugary glaze over top.
But I love me some cherry chip cake from the box… guilty pleasure 🙂
Jennifer A. says
I really love the look of all the Prime Time Eyelid Primers, but especially Urban Nature.
brittany says
I am entering the day before the contest closes even though I know I won’t win I am still entering.
my favorite bare escentuals product are the lip glosses because for being “natural” line the pigmentation is very good. in all honesty, I am not really in to birthdays. I don’t like remembering how old I am getting. my favorite flavor of cake is rich chocolate.
Kiran says
Today just happens to be my boyfriend’s birthday! We live in Vancouver but he came to see me in Victoria on the Island because I am here for a practicum. i hope you have a good time in Vancouver and the weather stays nice for your trip!

Enigwoman says
My favorite birthday was when I was 7 and I was living in Geneva (Switzerland). We had pink cakes and loads of fun. My worst was my 15th visiting Ukraine. I was locked up in my dad’s house due to the snow.
leetal says

Laurina says
I love the Pillsbury funfetti cake!!! Always been my favorite!
Nat says
I love whatever flavor yellow cake is with white icing–not sure if that’s vanilla, haha. You know how supermarket birthday cakes always have roses on them? I always made sure I got my own rose on my slice of cake no matter who’s birthday it was.
TinaB says
Grasshopper ice-cream pie from Baskin-Robbins! The best birthday “cake” for a summer birthday.

ValbonaPro says
AMAZING GIVEAWAY, THANK YOU!
The past three days have been okay for me. I was on vacation for three days on a beach, and it was not even planned! My hubby and I decided to just go with it and have an adventure that does not always include planning. So, what were the first three things I grabbed before we head out the door? My makeup in a huge cosmetics bag, two shirts, shorts, and wallet. Oh my goodness, I usually plan trips, but this was the BEST time of my life. I owe it all to him for showing me that it’s not always about planning, but adventure, because adventure and surprises are just not the same when you plan them!
Have a great day, Karen!
Gift Princess Goden says

Deb says
My most fun cake to make ,was the cookie monster cake I baked and decorated in the middle of the night, for my five year old,one hand decorating the cake, the other hand holding a bottle in my babies mouth,while he was in his bassinet. This was necessary in order to surprise my little boy. His expression when he saw the cake was priceless!
Tiffany says

chloe says

Bridget says
One year my mom made this UUUUH-mazing cake that was baked with an edible rose extract. I know it sounds kinda wierd, but it was the most heavenly taste ever…as sweet as a rose smells it tasted and melted in your mouth with the same kind of sweetness that can’t even be explained!! NIRVANA!! …The company that made the extract went outta business and we can’t find that rose extract anywhere. Bummmmer!!! 🙁
Gina says
I would love to try those primers! they look amazing!!

Savannah says
In my family there is a recipe for this delicious chocolate cake, it’s called “Ma-ma’s chocolate cake”! It’s delish, and it takes 2 days to make.
Mmmm, I wish I had some right now!
Julie says

My favorite Birthday cake was from this year. My fiance bought me a cake from Dairy Queen and told my son to keep it a secret. As soon as they walked in the door, my son told me “me and Daddy got you a cake” “its got ice cream on it and it says your name”. I thought it was hilarious.
Anna says

Winning this bareMinerals Makeup contest would make for a wonderful birthday present in advance for me. Thank you! =D
Denise says
BM lip glosses are fab, as well as their eyeshadows. I also use their Well-Rested under my eyes to lighten and brighten after using concealer. And so many of their products are multi-use in nature, and with the amount you get for your money they are often a good buy!
Stephanie says
Oh I really want to try the new primers, they look amazing! Thank you for this giveaway!
xox
Aida says

Diane K. says
I never was a big fan of Bare Escentuals not because I didn;t like their make up, rather I never really took the time to try any of their products. Since the line is known as a mineral make up, which to this day, I have no idea what that really means, I just avoided their products which is odd considering I never met any make up product I didn’t love. However, the more products they release, the more excited I’ve become about the line. I have started trying some of the gorgeous eye shadows and liners as well as their glosses which can’t be beat. I think when Bare Escentuals was first launched, they had such a limited and somewhat boring line, that I forever associated with a very dull, boring, natural look. But now that they keep on releasing all these fabulous products, I gotta have them to add to my beauty collection
Good luck to all and I hope that whoever wins realizes just how special a gift this is and doesn’t let a single product go to waste.

Sandy says
My most memorable birthday was my 40th. About 20 of my friends gave me a surprise party at a local restaurant. We had an absolute hottie of a waiter, and when he asked what the occasion was and I said I was turning 40, he looked stunned and made me show him my ID! He might have been the best actor in the world, but he topped off a perfect evening!
Amy Chamberlain says
Bare Minerals is a great product. Love these.

My favorite kind of birthday cake is chocolate with buttercream icing. It has to be buttercream icing, the whipped cream one gives me a stomach ache. Not a good time.
I love this giveaway, and your blog is pretty amazing. I visit it everyday, I just wanted to let you know 🙂
danielle says
Hiya, imma newbie here & very excited to enter, I loooove BE!
I would have to say one of my best birthdays was just this year. I had all my family around me(even tho there was drama lol), I’m blessed to have my parents and they’re still with me. I love them very much.
Shereen says
I like cheesecake for my birthday cake..mmm!
Bunny says
Love coconut birthday cake, made with coconut milk instead on milk …. Now I’m hungry!
Maya-Jean Pause says
Ever since I was a baby, my mom has always made my birthday cake, from scratch. In a way it’s horrible because every birthday party I go to always has these fake birthday cakes that taste gross. SO, once a year, on September 11th, I always look forward to my birthday cake, because I know it’s going to taste amazing. However, there’s one rule for my birthday cake that my mom has to follow; the cake must be covered in chocolate, inside and out. So usually I get a chocolate cake and I love it!!! Chocolate whipped cream icing is the best. It’s sweet and creamy, but doesn’t make your teeth rot and fall out. I’m excited as to what my birthday cake will be this September, as it’ll be my 21st Birthday!!!!!!!
styleezta says
Its my birthday this weekend! My favorite flavor is ube! HOLLA!

Amy N. says
For me, nothing can be compared with being with my family on birthday.

My most memorable birthday was this years. I turned 23 and that morning was a bad morning. So my husband said we’d go out for a nice walk at an outdoor mall. He said he’d take our baby (2 year old) and let me actually shop for myself and when he came back he saw I way looking at some things and decided to buy them for me behind my back and surprise me with the shopping bag! Haha my sweet man! After that he he said he wanted to take me to a fancy place but I asked for Portillos instead. haha, We had a great lunch and even got some of their chocolate cake. 🙂 He really made me feel very special that day and I love him more for being so awesome!

Happy Birthday Karen!! Hope this is the best year ever for you! I have been such a long time follower of yours, it is exciting to see how much your site has evolved over the past few years. I would love to win this giveaway, as I need some new cosmetics to spice up my summer look! I know if some bareMinerals products are sitting on my bathroom counter, my Mom and sister would love to give them a try also! We love to experiment with color and create new looks for ourselves! Thanks so much for the chances to enter. I am doing both {tweeting as @joannaonthelake }
Oh, and my favorite flavor of Birthday Cake is…….anything Chocolate, german chocolate, death by chocolate, you get the idea!
May you have the sweetest birthday ever!
Joanna

Think BEautifully says
Well I have to say, I had a very memorable bday this week, when some BE friends and I went to the boutique and went a little nutty. SO MUCH FUN!
But really, any birthday at all, they are just so much fun!
I have recently been obsessed with all of the radiances…I can’t get enough! I use matte, and to add a little lift, a radiance can just be a blast.
I am DYING to try the new primers though, they look AMAZING!
And yes, you DO look stunning 😉
Happy Bday to Geminis!
Stephanie Russell says

Denise F says
My favorite birthday was 14, when my mother (who passed 12 years ago) and my little sister took me shopping at the mall for a new outfit. My sister dragged us into the furniture section of a department store and I was really grouchy and upset because it was MY birthday and we had no reason to be in there… well, my sister and mom had been in there a week earlier and my sis found out that the jukebox in the display actually worked… and played the song “Denise” – so she plopped me down in a recliner and played my name song… such a sweet birthday…
LC says
Happy birthday, Bare Escentuals!
