Have you heard the news, babes? It’s 2011! Happy New Year! It looks like we made it.
So, did you celebrate the pants off of 2010 last night? Come on, please don’t spare the details. 🙂 El Hub, Tabs and I actually rang it in with a whisper at home. I know, I know — boring. We had a glass of wine at a little place not far from here, and then shared a pizza (all of us but Tabs) at our favorite joint in San Rafael before getting home around 10. I think I may have even fallen asleep before midnight, but when the clock struck 12, I awoke to the booms and cracks of fireworks far off in the distance. I leaned over, kissed El Hub, and then fell back to sleep.
Today I think I owe the day to my hubby and Tabs, so I won’t be around very much. I couldn’t leave you hangin’ though. The start of a brand new year deserves to be celebrated with at least a little pomp and circumstance, am I right?
Trumpets, please!
(DUN DUH DUH DUHHH!)
I wish I had one of these cards for every single person reading right now, but I hope this particular one goes to a good home (yours perhaps?).
If you’re an international reader, or if Sephora’s just not your cup of tea, no problemo. The winner may elect to receive $100 sent to them by PayPal instead. If you win, just let me know which prize you prefer.
- One (1) Sephora eGift card containing $100 sent to the winner by email (or $100 sent by PayPal instead).
- There are two ways to enter, and you can do both of them for two chances to win. First, you can enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post, a comment about anything at all. How would you describe last year, do you have any goals for 2011, what would you get from Sephora if you won the giveaway, are you a good kisser — you get the idea.
- Second, you can enter by following me on Twitter @karenmbb and retweeting (RT) the following message:
- Follow @karenmbb and RT to Win a $100 eGift Card from Sephora! http://bit.ly/eMP6tB

- Sephora eGift Certificates can only be redeemed online and are not valid in stores or available for purchase or redemption in Canada. The winner may opt to substitute the Sephora eGift card prize for $100 sent directly to their email address by PayPal.
- Tabs and I (heretofore referred to as “T-Money and K-Dawg”) will select one (1) winner at random from the entries either left in the comments at the bottom of this blog post or addressed to @karenmbb on Twitter.

Happy New year!
Anna says
I usually don’t celebrate NYE, I spent it in foreign countries in the past years and it was hard getting used to German parties again, hahaha. (Oh btw if I win, a friend will shop for me instead and send me the stuff then. It’d be SO amazing to get the Sephora stuff because we don’t have any Sephora here and I have a long list of things I wish I could buy…)

My only wish for 2011 is that my application to further my studies in Singapore will go smoothly and successfully. I’m a bit worried about it- my grades are not the best although they are satisfactory, but I believe I will get the chance to go to Singapore for further studies 🙂 Fingers all crossed!
Kendal says

Gummy says
It’s already 2011! I was born in the late-late 1970’s…and that sounds SO far away, like I’m so old! >_<
But overall, it's been a great few decades – sure there were ups and downs, but it makes us who we are today, and I'm happy with what I have become. There's more, I know, of who I am yet to be in the future, and I am learning every day, so I look forward to 2011, because who knows what surprises (I look for good surprises! Bad ones…well, they happen, but we make the best of them, yeah?) 2011 will bring? =D Happy New Year Karen and Tabs! ^_^
Melissa says
When I saw this title pop up, you had my undivided attention!!! Happy “ONE” day—1-1-11!!!! Thank you 🙂
Milaxx says
Last year was challenging. I refused to call it bad because although there certainly were a lot more not so fun moments than I would have liked, I learned much about myself and my own inner strength. I also discovered who my true friends were. I’m now looking forward to a happier and healthy 2011.
cams says

Teresa says
2010 was a fabulous year, can’t wait for 2011! A trip to Sephora would start it out wonderfully. 😀

Jenn says
In honor of the New Year, I tried a chai latte for the 1st time. I went store-bought with Tazo Chai Black Tea Latte. It’s pre-made; you just add milk and a small amount of sugar (optional). I used Equal to control the calories. :p
I am in HEAVEN. It is deliciously spicy with black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, honey, cane sugar, vanilla, ginger, etc. Next week, I’m going to stop by Panera Bread and try their chai latte based on your recommendation.
Happy New Year!
AmyE says
Wishing you a happy, happy new year full of joy and of course beauty! This year was very extreme for me — the best of the best and the worst of the worst, so I am hoping for some peace and evenness.
Katrina says
My hubby had to work last night so I rung in the new year by myself. I had a little spa time at home – a facial and mani/pedi and then snacked and watched movies. I’m so optimistic for 2011, I think it’s going to be a big year for my husband and I!
Laura says

Steph says

emily Hart says
last year was the greatest year of my life!
Mollie says
2010 was a banner year as far as my professional life. I accomplished a goal that I’ve been working on for a long time. In 2011, I plan to put just as much effort into my health and personal life as I have put into my career.
Erica M says

Jenefer B says
I’m hoping 2011 will be much, much better for us than 2010 was. There was lots of craziness, stress, drama, moments where I though I’d reached my breaking point, but thankfully I survived it all (my 14 y/o was suddenly struck with a mysterious medical issue – to date she’s had over 100 seizures, been taken away in an ambulance over 30 times, spent her birthday unconscious and in an ER, and the doctors are baffled- see? it was really stressful!!).
I hope 2011 is a good year for everyone and for the economy. We spent our New Year’s Eve eating pizza and watching movies and I just barely made it to midnight but let me tell you, I conked out at about 12:01 am lol
sonam says
i’ve been taking my naturally trim figure and doing no sort of fitness for too long. i’m putting on my running shoes and taking some time to myself that will up my endorphins and improve my health!
April says
This year I will graduate with an Associate in Applied Science in Human Services/ Substance Abuse and will start working on my bachelors in Social Work:)
Kerri says
Happy New Year to you and your whole family, Karen!
I spent my new year’s down with strep throat (and the accompanying lovely fever attached), so it was very low key. However, it was still a wonderful new year because I got to spend it with our new golden retriever puppy for the first time (and hopefully there will be many more after this one). I am so grateful to have her in our lives, because our Siberian kitten passed away on September 2, 2010 (from Feline Infectious Peritonitis). I miss her dearly (and seeing your pictures of Tabs always remind me of her), but our puppy has helped me accept her passing.
Nazih says
Happy New Year Karen! I had the most hilarious new years eve ever, we pretended go by eastern time when we’re central, since my little cousins were crying to spend the whole night w/ us. So we drank grape juice an hour early to make them happy and then they left. LOL cruel but funny.
dani@callitbeauty says
fab giveaway, karen!
one of my goals this year is to cross a place off my travel list. i don’t yet know how this will happen considering i’m broke & jobless, but i’m optimistic 😀
happy new year to you all!
DalaLuz says
You spoil us 🙂 I tweeted your give-away http://twitter.com/DalaLuz/status/21255592274305024
And I am having a lovely Jan 1st, hanging out on the coach and watching old movies while being, honest is honest, completely and utterly unkept… No cooking either, just enjoying yummy left-overs. I just believe new years day is for lazing about at all fronts! But I’ll be sure to enjoy prettifying myself with just the right touch of make-up come tomorrow 😀
To all a very happy and beautiful 2011!!!!
Georgia says
happpppy new year! my beauty resolution for 2011 is to hit pan on something!

Happy 2011! I rang in the new year quietly with the bf and a few friends and fell asleep soon after. I had a really fun NYE last year and 2010 kinda beat me up so I’m hoping that this quiet celebration brings a year of relaxation and peace lol. Give Tabs a new years snuggle for me!

Arianne says
Happy new year Karen and Tabs!
Let this be the year that I test the waters of the makeup industry! 🙂
Fefe says
2010 was.. okay. It could have gone better but hey… not all good is in our cards. For 2011 my two main focuses will be my health and starting my online business to generate some real income. A Sephora gift card you say? I’d like to extend my Benefit collection, just a tad.
DSM says

Tiffany T says
Sephora GC– would definitely try the MUFE Aqua Cream and maybe try Hourglass brushes which feel amazing!

Wow! A $100 eGift Card from Sephora would be an awesome way to start 2011!
Didn’t do a whole lot last night. Spent the evening watching tv and calming a very traumatized Missy since the neighborhood firecracker insanity started at SEVEN! Today I’m getting together with a friend and we’re going to the nearest covered mall since it’s raining… again!
Happy New Year everyone!

Happy New year!!!!
AS says
Happy New Year! Sephora blows Ulta out of the water! Just got an order where the latter eliminated my coupon code after they cut an item from the order, costing me $30 more than I expected to pay. And one of the mascaras I ordered is missing a brush. Sephora, however, are pros all the way
Ariel says
One of my goals for the year (ironically) is to spend less time on the internet! 🙂

Happy New Year!! I rang in the New Year dead asleep. I vaugely remember hearing some fire crackers and midnight and then went right back to bed. It was lovely. 🙂
Vik says
I am thinking that the gift card would go towards a Clarisonic. My skin ain’t getting any more resilient the closer I get to thirty, so I think 2011 is the year to start getting serious about taking care of myself.
Belladatura says
Happy new year! Looking forward to a fabulous year.
Bethany says
Happy New Year! Great giveaway 🙂
Natalie says
My big goal for 2011: buy less, use more!!! Haha, that’s been my goal for the last few years, lol! I love to try out different products, but I feel horrible when something that I haven’t used up spoils/separates/etc 🙁 I’m hoping that this is the year I can try to be a bit more modest in my spending. Haha, I’m hoping that, and yet I’m entering to win money to buy even more stuff at Sephora, lol! Anyway, thanks for the chance to win!
Amber says
We rang in the new year quietly sitting at home, making chocolate chip cookies, putting our two young kids to bed (let them stay up until midnight and then have meltdowns all day the next day? no thanks!) and watching Eclipse, which I still hadn’t seen. It was a good late night movie. I have to admit….I kind of HATE New Year’s Eve as a holiday. Always have, always will.
Melissa says
2010 was hard for me in so many ways. I grew from the challenges, but it’s not a year I’d want to repeat. I’m hoping 2011 will have more positive things in store.
Aya says
Happy New Year! My new year makeup resolution/hope is to wear all the lipsticks I have – I have so many but only wear a few out of them. This year I wanna rock red lips! I think I’m a decent kisser, but not sure if I’d let my hubby kiss me when I have perfect red lippies on…
snoopysteph says
2010 was a VERY stressful year for me & my family – I’m really hoping 2011 is better for us!
gabby says
Happy New Year!!! I never make New Years Resolutions because I cannot keep them but I really need to stop drinking soda!!!!! This year, I need to take better care of myself. Now that my little one will be starting school, I will have more time to do things for myself.
Wow, a $100 e giftcard. That is awesome. I would for sure get some Laura Mercier foundation. I have been wanting to give it a try!!!
Thanks Karen for this awesome blog.

Your New Year’s Eve sounds a lot like mine! My BF and I chilled at his house with his sisters, watched Easy A and some reruns of The Office, and then kissed at midnight. I was home by 12:30! LOL. I had the flu yesterday though, so I guess that is allowed. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Arrowe says
Hi, Karen,
longtime lurker here.
Last year: wow, lots of excitement. Started my own business and I am still up some nights worrying that nobody wants what I offer (translation). However, so far so good… It is just kind of nerve-wracking. I spent most of my life working at universities in research labs so going it on my own was frightening especially since I am disabled (arthritis) and worry about my physical condition. I love reading your blog because I get a lot of strength from your sense of humor and of course Tabs is kind of my long-distance crush. 🙂
Happy New Year to all!
Arrow
SiSi says

Emmaline says
Thanksgiving I had to put my kitty to sleep, Christmas eve I was in a car wreck ( not my fault) and ended up with a broken arm and a totaled car, so I stayed in for new years. At midnight I kissed my other cat since my fiance is 13 hours away. I know 2011 will be better because I am moving to Florida!
Have a safe and happy new year!

Love your blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been following you for awhile now and I must say as a fellow Filipino girl your swatches, reviews, and blogs have been a pleasure to read and informative in more ways than one! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this site. It is nice to see someone who loves makeup and has the same skintone (which helps me pick out the correct colors for me) as me!

Catilin says
First of all, Happy New Year!
Second of all, if I got this gift card to Sephora…there’s so much I want! But it would probably go towards a Stella by Stella McCartney gift set for myself because, even after all of my hinting, nobody got me any for Christmas & I’m almost out! I’d probably also get a CoverFX foundation, since I’ve tried almost every other brand & I can’t find one that covers without looking cakey & orange on my light skin. My New Years’ resolution is to find a great foundation!
Dee says
2010 for me was a challenging year health wise but I am hoping 2011 will finally bring me good health and loads of make up :)))))
I would stock up on some of my fave Guerlain and Clarins products !

Nujee says
Wow this is an awesome giveaway! I am dreaming of some Tarte cosmetics from Sephora and a new facial moisterizer and like soo many other things! EXCITED!!!!!!
Emi says
My resolution this year is to definitely wear more lipstick. At a liberal arts school in the PNW, people don’t exactly glam it up every day and lipstick is such a high maintenance product that when I do wear it I always feel like a tool. But my resolution is to wear more of it because I love lipstick, I love the way it smells and feels and looks, and I’m throwing other peoples’ judgements to the wind. Including my boyfriend’s. I like lipstick, and I will wear it!!
Darlene says
My heart and prayers to all those who have lost their homes, lives, and/or loved ones. May this New Year bring rainbows with many blessings….

Thanks for doing awesome giveaways like this one! This would be great for some of that awesome new Urban Decay spring stuff – especially that crazy wonderful 24/7 liner anniversary set.
LauraA says
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity, Karen–it’s a great one for the new year! 🙂
I’m really happy about having discovered this blog in 2010, although I’ve never commented on any blog post until now. I’ve been exposed to so many different products that I wouldn’t have sought out on my own. I hope everyone here has a great 2011.
Plans for a Sephora gift card: Korres eyeliner, another bottle of the Korres white tea cleanser, and the Kat von D painted love lipstick set–I’m pale, but love a dark or dark blended lip and the colors look great. Or the Smashbox Master’s Class palette with another bottle of the Korres white tea cleanser. Nail polish purchases would round out any remaining balance from the hundred smackers.
Elle says
Happy new year, everyone! This year went by way too fast for my liking.
Ginger says
So every year I spend New Years Eve with my mom and grandma and we toast in the new year when the ball drops. My grandma has poor mobility and can’t really get around. This year the city rules changed and we were allowed to do fireworks in the city limits. This year my grandma had her own fireworks show by looking out her window. It was a good New Years Eve, especially for her. 🙂 And that made my new years a good one.
Brandi says
I plan to get my driver’s license in 2011. Oh, and I would spend the gift card on the Urban Decay 15th anniversary eye liner set!
Thanks, sista!
Jenna says
I love sephora. Winning this would be a great start to the new year.
Glenda says
My birthday is coming up…can’t wait to try out a bunch of new stuff from Sephora, like Benefit’s Bella Bamba blush! =)

Tal says
I would looooove to get my hand on the (MUFE) HD powder!!!
Jenn says
This year will be one of major change for me professionally (and most likely geographically)…I have a couple of lazy months before my new job starts though so my biggest goal is to use the winter wisely to a) reach my physical goals b) catch up on my DVR c) strengthen friendships!
Michelle says
One of my resolutions is to spend less time in front of the t.v. and more time reading! I remember I used to find reading so rewarding, but somehow my hectic life has made me feel like I don’t have time for books, when in reality, I spend way too much time vegetating with t.v. shows! Thanks for having this giveaway to kickstart the new year!
Suji says
Happy New Year! My hubby and our 2 kitties spent NYE at home and we were fast asleep by the time midnight came around. I hope in 2011 I can find a new job!

Caroline says
Enjoying watching the Twilight Zone marathon on TV!
Kira says
I resolve to keep taking care of my skin! I found some GREAT murad products at Sephora, and even though they’re expensive, they’re worth it. So I vow to keep up this good routine and hopefully i’ll win 🙂

I stayed home and worked on my grad school applications on new year’s eve 🙂

Kathy N Scott says

Happy New Year everyone! My goal for this year is to get fit and eat healthy. Time to cut out the junk food and get in the gym.
Debra P says
You always have wonderful giveaways!!!! Thank you for the chance. Sephora is my dream shop. I am like a kid in a candy store there! I love the Dr Brandt Lineless Cleanser, the Korres body butters and shower gels and everything from Bliss. I love the Smashbox lip glosses and the Boscia luminizing black mask. So before I go on and on I’ll just say ty for the chance :).
My New Year’s Resolution is to do more martial arts, spend more time with family and friends, to laugh and be silly more, be positive and live in the present!
@MissingLynxx
jacque says
in 2011 i dont want to make a resolution because i never do it. haha! so i just want to stay positive and try not to let anyone negative bother me!
Brenda Callahan says

Gretchen says
I can never have enough Sephora. Happy New Year!
Soo says
I had to work for 12 hours straight for NYE and it was so exhausting. it was at the Grand Hyatt in DC and people were dressed up and drinking. when midnight struck I was really missing the boyfriend and seriously about to cry. plus the love song that went “I’m so in looove” after the toast didn’t help at all.
Robyn says
2011 is my year to take care of ME. i’ll be 25, and have so many goals and ambitions. I want to go to beauty school, travel (since i’ve never been off the west coast! sad huh?) and just have a blast enjoying my mid 20’s. you’re only 25 once afterall 😉
Denise says
2010 was kind of a wake up call year… but I know 2011 will be full of greatness, in beauty and regular life lol
Kate & Zena says
Happy New Year, Karen & Tabs!
Sarah says
Wow I’m super excited! *fingers crossed*
My resolution this year is to take better care of myself. As a law school student, free time is rare so things like exercising, eating and sleeping tend to fall by the wayside. This year I want to take better care of myself 🙂
Karim says
I would go to Sephora and buy all the things I didn’t buy myself for Christmas.
Amber says
Oooh I adore Sephora, i think I’d have to spend this gift card on some of the products that you’ve reviewed and shared with us here that I’ve yet to be able to buy. Thanks for the chance Karen!!
jasmine says
cats rock! YEA
Ann says
I have a kitty that likes to sleep with me at night. Love!
Rita Sheppard says
If I won the egift card, I’d get some great moisturizers.

I would purchase bunch of skincare because i am running very low on everything! Great blog!
Komal says
Happy new year!
My resolution this year (beauty wise) will be to put in some effort every day, as I have gotten quite lazy and you never know who you’ll run into!
Barbara says
Happy New Year! Amazing contest from a brilliant blogger. Thanks! Hmm, think I’d buy some YSL makeup and maybe Ole Henriksen skincare… Here’s to a great 2011 for everybody!
LauraJ says
The movers come Monday. We just took everything out of the attic & it’s starting to feel real

navi says
A good way to start the new year 🙂
Christina says
Dear T-Money and K-Dawg,
ROCK ON!
Sincerely,
C-Bro.
Stephanie says
Last year was awesome! I was reunited with the love of my life after 13 years, married him and moved to his country – Germany. The only other sad part (besides obviously missing friends and family) is that there is no Sephora here! I haven’t made it over to France yet so this would give me an excuse, hee hee.
Alison says
A long-due new year goal for me is to not go under-appreciated. We do so much for our husbands, boyfriends, family, friends, etc. But sometimes it seems there is so much give and very little acknowledgement of the give.
Happy new year to you and Tabs!
JACKIE says
Love Sephora and your blog!
Denise says
Happy New Year! This was one of the few years I didn’t spend with family. It was actually quite fun, but I did miss them.
nancy mcd says
So, I spent nye working in an ER, which does give you perspective!! To be festive, wore my fav MAC lipstick: who says you can’t be glamorous at 3am?
katie picklesimer says
I am still thinking about your Trader Joe’s burrito and wishing we had a TJ’s around here! 😉
Christina says
*_* so wonderful! I would love to start the new year with this!
dishie says
Karen, you rule! Here’s to a great new year for you, Hubs and of course Tabs! Hope I win! 🙂
Kelsey says
Well, i am swanning around in MAC’s goodbye section, picking up the Pret a Papier things I didn’t get when the collection came out.
Connie says
Happy New Year!!! If I won a gift card, I’d save it until the spring guerlain collection hits stores! I love the blush and powders!
DonnaN says
Your NYE sound’s like mine, sans the waking up to fireworks…….Glad you enjoyed it, none the less!! Happy 2011!!
This is an awesome prize……Guerlain and Illamasqua would be two brands I would consider splitting this on……
Courtney says
This is so awesome
Jenny says
The new year won’t bring anyone success or happiness – we have to do it ourselves. My resolution is to remember that.
Pam says
I’m going to make sure I’m happy this year! No one can do it for me, it’s up to me. I love your site–especially Sam’s posts. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
Ashley says
Well 2010 wasn’t my best year, it started & ended with a big bang for me! I ended 2010 by going into the ER & staying overnight & started 2011 by laying in bed resting. All I wish for in 2011 is that nothing bad happens to me again because I know I’m missing out on a lot of fun stuff!
Wendy says
This contest is awesome thx T-Money!! My new year’s resolution will be to take more pictures for memories.
Happy New Year!!
Heather says
Happy New Year! Mmm, a gift card for Sephora – I’d use it on some of that new Chanel foundation you posted a review on. It sounds fantastic!
diana says
had a good year, looking and hoping to make this year ever better:) hope every one has a great year too.
michaela says
one of my resolutions is to stress less and do my nails more!! i hope you have a fab 2011!
Melanie says
No better way to celebrate a new year than with new makeup goodies! Hope I win!
Alice says
Winning a giftcard for Sephora would make this whole flu thing that much more bearable. Which, it’s pretty unbearable. What was I thinking, two months ago, when I thought that I’d like to know what having the flu feels like? I’d never had it before. Now if I could go back in time two months and punch myself, then get myself a flu shot, I would do it. Do it so hard.
Robin says
I am relatively new to your blog, but have really enjoyed reading it the last few months. If I won the Sephora gift card, I would buy another Urban Decay Naked palette. I LOVE it and am afraid of using mine up!
My Lips But Better says
Come to mama!
Olivia says
To 2011! May it bring closer friendships, more adventure, and fewer worries!
Shah'ada says
I neeeeeeeed NARS eye primer K-Dawg!!
aquamarine565 says
i slept through midnight (with a very fluffy kitten on my lap)…
Jess Metz says
I had to work last night until past midnight, so I didn’t get to celebrate. If I won the gift cert, I would definitely have a celebration of my own at Sephora.com!
Kris Bjerke says
I can always find something to order at Sephora!
Dana K says
I want this so I can buy a clairsonic!
paige says
happy 2011!!!!
Denise Caruso says
I first started reading this blog because of Karen’s informative, helpful and insightful product reviews which make me run out and buy every beauty product known to man but then it became what is Tabs doing today and he became a big focus of why I read her blog.. I enjoy him as much as I do Karen. Love to keep up with the photos of him too.
Phyrra says
Happy New Year 🙂
Jennifer says
OMG! This is a great giveaway, I would buy the tart makeup kit, which would be half the gift card and then it would be a splurge on some urban decay.
New Year’s Resolution (hmm…there are so many) – work on my Salsa dancing for the next 6 months, renovate my kitchen and make a small patio outside for some summertime fun!
Sandy says
Well my resolution ths year is to work on my patience. I seem to have lost it a lot over the past year. TY for having this giveaway and good luck everyone!
Jordyn says
My only goal this year is to grow my hair out! I’ve been trying forever, but when I got layers in my hair, a lot of length got cut off (not sure how the heck that happened :(!) So by July, I want at least two extra inches. I don’t think that’s too much to ask for.
Happy New Year!
Yen says
I would definitely buy some new makeup brushes and Make Up For Ever’s Face & Body Foundation as well as their Full Cover Concealer because they’re both waterproof and super long lasting!
Maple says
i want!
LiAnn - Sparklecrack Central says
At mightnight I was lying in bed, wearing my peacock-blue PJs and fuzzy blue socks (the ones that look like I’ve skinned a muppet), reading Terry Pratchett, surrounded by cats. Not a bad way to ring in the new year!!
In 2010 I built up my blog a lot more, got more than 3/4 of the way through wearing all of my eyeshadows at least once, and found more blogs to read. In 2011 I’m going to re-photograph all my stuff using my new camera, which takes MUCH better pictures. I’m also going to make new images for all of my eyeshadows that show more detail and more views. (I think I’m insane, creating all these projects for myself…!)
Jae says
Happy 2011 to you! Looking forward to spending another year with you! 🙂
Candace says
I spent the new year at my friend’s house, as it’s her birthday on the 31st as well! 🙂
Ivana says
Happy New Years, Karen! Thanks so much for all the laughs and wonderful advice over the years 🙂

Aracely says
Wishing everyone a Happy 2011, and my god I want that gift card!!! Sephora is my favorite place.
Something Purple says
Oh, I have a full cart in Sephora.com waiting to be checked out but I have maximized my vanity funds in 2010, so I really hope to win this :).
What’s in that cart?
Benefit Coralista, Benefit Benetint, Benefit Bathina and Yes, if ever I win this, I might as well purchase my first Clarisonic. Living in a country where beauty services cost too much, I might as well, convert my bathroom into my own spa and facial center :P.
As for 2010, it was a year full of blessings and I hope to carry my optimism and positivity in 2011. My 2011 Mantra include: Live Simply, Travel Light (no emotional baggages) and yes, Embrace all Imperfections.
Manigong Bagong Taon Karen!
Jessi says
I know this is a terribly cliche goal for this year, but I really want to lose weight. Being overweight I’m tired all the time and I just don’t feel… healthy. Looking better is not my main goal, although it is an awesome perk, I just want to FEEL better!
Bo says
Starting (or hoping to start) the new year with new energy and positivity–towards academics if the College Gods are looking down on me! This sophomore is looking forward to enjoying every minute of school. After all, work hard play hard 😉
Styleezta says
I would stock up on murad products 🙂
lostcausefoundeffect says
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a not so great year…my pug died, one got away, but alas I have rescued two pugs from my local shelter. I also lost my job like millions of other Americans, but with a new job under my belt and a new year, I’m ready to get 2011 started. This will be a good year!

Get toned and go back into my singing and dancing roots. And not to be so hot tempered which is just a big no no for me yet so hard to hold down when something begins to bother me, poop.

Happy New Year! I’m looking forward to 2011 – I’m getting married in June!!
cherry M says
i think new year resolutions are overrated. I find that a change of digit in my yearly calendar maybe a good excuse to think up ways of self improvement but certainly not enough reason to follow through. so years ago i resolved to stop making new year’s resolutions and ironically its the only one that came true. and coz by no way do i think i’m perfect i make up resolutions on birthdays and the start of the semester instead.. on the side note living in a city with a firecracker ban sucks. certainly safer but still kinda sucks.
HanaBerlin says
2010 was awesome! Here is to an even better 2011!!!
Stacie says
I got a gift card from my parents for Christmas, so if I won the gift card I would drive to Columbus and give it to my favorite Buckeye…… I miss you.

My resolution is to finally get out there and do the freelance makeup work I’ve always wanted to do.
likeramona says
I prayed the New Year in at church which was pretty awesome because my husband preached his first sermon at 10:30 pm on 12/31/10 =)
Ann says
I had a good time last night, but I had to work this morning and I spent the day pretty hung over. Then I found out I got paid time and a half so it made the work day not quite so bad!
This is a GREAT giveaway, by the way! I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
Andrea says
I REALLY need to win this.
Luisa says
Take care of my skin better! Apply for grad school! Be a better teacher!
BeckBeck says
My fiance just scared the living heck out of me – he LEAPED off the couch cheering for an interception by his college football team. Does El Hub ever do that sort of thing to you?
Suri says
Rawr Happy New Year! Wow if I won this it would be soooo on in Sephora! 🙂
Gia V. says
Hi Karen! It’s the first of January, woW! It feels like 2010 just FLEW by. I’m still trying to get those 2010 New Years resolutions done, it’s hard to think about this year. But they’re always the same anyway. This year, I plan on eating healthier and getting a lot more exercise in (I’m just not feelin’ the flab). But of course, I’m starting this new year the… well Flounder way! I start a new quarter at my college the 5th, so this Monday is my very first (and probably last for a long time to come) FLOUNDER DAY! YAY! In case you’re wondering, Flounder Day is the day you do absolutely nothing but watch movies and eat the food that makes you happy. You don’t do your hair, or change out of your pj’s and (GASP) you don’t do your makeup! It’s crazy, but it’s just what I need to bid farewell to my two month vacay from college work 😀 Well, hope you had a good first day of the new year!!
Robyn says
Well I was just on sephora’s website making a birthday wish list, this would allow me to buy everything I want!!
Xoxo
Sarah says
Thanks for the giveaway! My resolutions are to simplify my possessions and my life and to be more intentional about how I spend money!
Alyssa says
This would totally help me finally phase out my old mary kay makeup that’s making me break out and get all new stuff!
charlie says
i love sephora!!!! sephora loves my $$ tooooooooooooo!!
Tracey says
Hey everybody! Happy new year!!
Emma says
helllooo 2011!! 😀
Chalyn says
My wish for 2011 is to spend less time working and more time having fun. Life can be way to stressful and its crazy easy to get caught up in it. You know the saying All work and no play…..:p
Hana says
I’m dying to try out some Givenchy lipsticks! Happy New Year 🙂
Mendy says
Happy New Year!! I am looking so forward to 2011. I just started a brand new job after being laid off all year in 2010. So good riddance 2010!! I am starting a new chapter in life this year. I have set a few small goals. One is to take more pictures, I’ve kinda gotten out of the habit. Another is to take more time for me. With a hubby, 3 kids, and a dog…I don’t have much me time. 🙂
What a very nice giveaway. Wishing you all the very best in 2011 🙂
Museumgal says
Happy New Year Karen and Tabs!
I am hoping 2011 is as good as 2010 was ( I got engaged!), although so far I have been sick in bed all weekend.
I would used the giftcard to stock up on goodies from my favorite brands, Korres, Urban Decay and MUFE.
Shannon says
I’m so excited for 2011!!! 🙂
Julia says
The beginning of this year is filled with some uncertainty for me. I just left my job and don’t have another lined up yet. On the other, I quit my job in order to move to another state with my wonderful fiancée!
Paivi says
May joy and peace surround you,
Contentment latch your door,
And happiness be with you now,

My cat was my midnight kiss.
Oh what a thrilling life I lead!
Stephanie says
oh i love i love i love!!!
Tish says
MAC’s Pecocky Collection has got me mad! I want to buy everything (well, almost but not quite) but I gotta be practical. It’s a pain narrowing down the list to a few items!
Happy New Year to you and and Tabs, and El Hub as well 🙂
alicia says
2010 was a horrible year for me, and I will spare the details because it’s all about 2011 now. My plans are to take the reigns back in my life, and to trust myself. The giftcard would come in so handy to purchase the new boscia face mask, a deep conditioner, and a soothing shower gel from philosophy to take away the effects that last year had on my skin. Let’s fake toast to a great year!
Trista says
It’s hard to wait around for something you know might never happen; but it’s even harder to give up when you know it’s everything you want. sigh…
PAULA says
HAPPY NEW YEAR! WHAT A GREAT WAY TO START OFF 2011 WITH A SEPHORA GIFT CARD.
Amy says
A goal for 2011 is to get more fit and healthier!

This New Year I played games with my brothers all night. I had more fun doing that then I have had in the past going out and partying!

I’m looking forward to the new year! 🙂 I’m tentatively moving back to the great state of California to be with the love of my life.
Mahika says
wow! This makes me 661! Competition is tough! 😛
Deanna G. says
Count me in please! 🙂
Christine says
I would buy some urban decay products if I won 🙂
Audrey says
With a $100 gift card from Sephora I honestly would be lost. There would be so many possibilities! I would probably take my best friend out shopping, and have fun. (And get the little essentials I’ve been needing). The nearest Sephora to me is 2 hours away, so it’s always a special treat when I get the chance to go (and actually afford to get something!). Thanks for the chance to win!
Katrina says
Happy New Year Karen! We partied it up and I looked FAB. Too bad I spilled champagne on my dress, hah! And my husband sent a drunk text to my contacts list from my cell phone at 1am that said “Gappy xew xearp!” …Yup.
evilshedevil says
Oh, I have a full cart in several online webshops waiting to be checked out but I have maximized my vanity funds in 2010, so I really hope to win this .
Tbea says
Here’s to a hope-filled 2011! My goal is exercise. With $100 at Sephora, I’d get the Givenchy lipstick they used in their catalog (and a few other things!) 🙂
Kristi says
2010 was tough. I lost my best friend, but it’s been bittersweet. One of those “It sucked so bad but I’m surprisingly better off now..” moments. Looking forward to a fresh start in 2011!
Lindsay says
Your skincare post has inspired me to re-think my skincare routine. So I would seriously love $100 to spend at Sephora! Happy New Year Karen. 🙂
Apple says
Hi Karen, if I win this $100 e-gift card to Sephora, it will be the best way to jumpstart my 2011 and get some skincare and nice lipsticks. 🙂
Sabrina says
Not only would I treat myself to new 2011 goodies, but I would give my sweet boyfriend the skincare set that I didn’t give him for Christmas. 🙂 Happy New Year!!
Chanel says
My new year’s resolution is to take care of me and make sure that I am happy. I spend so much time trying to make everyone else happy and I often neglect my own happiness.
Erin says
Happy new year! I’m wising for a year full of love and makeup!
Emily says
2011 will be a great year. My goal is to make it to the gym more often despite the weather!
Connie says
2011 wOOoOhOOOO!
K says
in 2010 i started noticing my first fine lines 🙁
in 2011, i hope to be rid of them! 😀
Sandra Mendez says
In those last 10 seconds of 2010, I had mini flashbacks of the year that passed. It was a good year. So, 2011, be better!!
Ann says
I used to be addicted to Sephora, and have been very good about not spending money there, so I think this e-Card would be a well earned prize for my discipline. 🙂
Chelsea says
Happy New Year Karen and Tabs! Love both of you and I look forward to another year of reading your great blog! <3
Carolina says
Happy New Year! I am a broke college student who NEEDS THIS GIFT CARD LIKE I NEED AIR.
Mandy says
With my resolutions to spend way less money, the only way I will see sephora in a while will be through earning my checkpoints toward a gift card.
eRiN says
WHOA!!! This would rock my wo0rld, I’d finally get to try some products I really can’t afford, and maybe a new perfume too 😀
saku says
Trying to finish college this year, I hope. And eating better. Happy new year.
Sheila says
2011 will be a great year!
Thais says
Happy 2011!!!
I want to get healthy this year.

2010 was an amazing year for me. I had my first baby in May, Kylie <3 and got engaged to my Army man hero! I will miss 2010 but am so excited to watch my little one grow along with me 🙂
Rachel says
i hate to say it but im glad that school is starting again.
BeautyMaven says
Happy 2011! May the pieces come together.
Shante C says

loofah says
Happy new year! I would be so thrilled if I got this giftcard!
pluvk says
My new year resolutions used to be the usual: be happy, lose weight. The last couple of years I made it a little more fun! My last year’s resolution was to cooke ONE dish better than my husband (he’s an awesome cook). While I didn’t actually accomplish this one (he’s too good!!), I ended up learning how to make several NEW dishes in the process! Now I can make noodles, summer rolls, fancy salads, etc.
This year, well… I’m planning to try parasailing and stand-up paddling. I want to start being more sustainable, and find create ways to save money. (Got a bread machine for xmas!) My husband and I have also been wanting to start a business together. Hopefully 2011 will be our year!
Shereen says
My goal for 2011 is to save! I’m living off student loans for the next year and a half and need to prepare myself for the debt I have accrued once I graduate.
Allison says
one word…Clarisonic!!!!!!!
I need one!!!! Happy New Year.
Margherita says
It would mean the world to win this! God I hope I do! 🙂
Meredith says
sephora is my favorite! if only they carried MAC as well as all the other brands they have, because I’m digging the Cham Pale collection… Happy New Year, Karen! 🙂
Ailyn says
One of my resolutions this year is to catch up on my reading! I want to be a writer one day, and with me home for Christmas break, this will give me the perfect opportunity to read some of the books I want.
anythingreen says
One of my New Year’s resolutions is to wear more lipstick. If I had a lovely Sephora gift card, then my task would be a lot easier (wink, wink!).
Happy New Year 🙂
Rozae says
The possibilities of buying the stuff I want now rather than saving for it later in the year is a great way to start the year right, in my book! Thnks Karen for the great gift.
Kailey says
Happy new year! I hope MBB only grows better from here 😀
AshBash says
i was not too pleased with last least but im not making any grand expectations for 2011. we’ll just see how it goes. im prepared for it to be GRAND as much as im prepared for it to suck royally.
Patti says

One of my resolutions is to take better care of my skin 🙂
Luci says
Oooo! What a fun prize! Happy New Year, everyone!
Diane K. says
When I walk into Sephora, I always want one of everything. I can walk into a Sephora when they first open, have a long list of chores to accomplish for the day but get so involved playing with all the make up, time stands still until all of a sudden I’m being rushed out of the store because it’s closing time, 10 hours later. It I had $100 to spend at Sephora, it would probably take me days to decide because there isn’t anything in the store that I can think of that I don’t want. But I would lean toward Shiseido and the YSL Limited Edition gorgeous pinkish metallic face powder. You can never go wrong with those 2 companies. Thanks for starting off the year with this great giveaway,

Taylor says
Ahhh! Thanks for the opportunity to win this.
I have a party to go to Saturday and this could really help me out. I’m wearing a women’s tux, a la Janelle Monae. My makeup has to be on point ;D

Oh my God…winning this would be just perfect to kick start the new year!
Thank you so much for the giveaway and having this fantastic blog!

anna says
I would buy benefit coralista, and korres liquid listick set
Morgan says
Holy Canoli! I can’t believe another year is done and over! Ugh, I feel old!
Tina says
I had a very quiet New Year’s eve. Im travelling and away from my hubby, so I wasnt feeling too festive 🙁
Nora says
Oh, $100 card – if you were in my possession, you would go towards NARS Tzarine duo and Benefit’s Nice Melons eyeshadow. How pleasant you would be, sitting in my wallet! And yes, I would use my excellent kissing skills on you. 🙂
Emily says
2011 is my year to make it happen =) I’m applying to NYU (as a transfer student) this coming fall!

Happy January 1st! I went to sleep at 11:55, a particularly bad time, considering the masses of people holding off on their fireworks until midnight.
Claudia says
Happy New Year!! My resolution for 2011 is to get my degree! 😀 It’s gonna be a busy 2011 for me.
Liz says
i can’t wait for 2011~!
Nicole15 says
I’m anxious to start 2011 after going through a very rough personal spot in my life during 2010. I survived a divorce, financial ruins due to it & emotional hardships with my 2 children due to the split…BUT we’re stronger & positive about the next chapter of our lives. Winning this gift card would be an awesome way to spoil myself (for once) as I change focus this year to MY personal happiness. Thanks Karen, for awarding this opportunity. Happy New Year to you, El Hub & Tabs!
Dharti says
Ah… 2010 has been interesting and I’m finally growing up 🙂 I learned a lot the last year, about myself. And now I’ve decided that I’m going to call it quits with all toxic relationships this year. Thankfully none are close – they are all people who call themselves my ‘friends’ but I’d rather not be acquainted with them at all because of how much venom they come with.
This comes with the realization that I do need to, and do really love myself. I’ve started being better about looking good. I’ve always been good about skincare thanks to my mom, but now I take the time to dress up a little to feel good 🙂 I’ve been on a make up buying binge lately! For the first time of my life!!
And I’m super happy about having discovered the perfect little, cozy and friendly sports cafe near us. I and hubby went there for our NYE – it was a stand up comedy routine featuring 7 regional comedians and there was a buffet and a glass of champagne included – the drinks were mostly regularly priced with some specials. It was such a nice NYE event for us. Laid back yet enjoyable. We’re definitely over the dance the night away scene. This was more our style 🙂
Valerie says
I would purchase with the giftcard would be the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer b/c my face needs to be flawless ALL the time! “:)
Diana K. says
Happy 2011 Karen! I hope this year is better than the last 🙂
Tessa says
Just recently found your blog, I love how you refer to your cat as if its a person. I do the same with mine, its hilarious! I’m not really into the spontaneous resolutions (honestly, they never seem to stick longer than a month) but for the last few months I’ve been working hard to keep up with some personal goals and I’ve been doing really well (drink more water, exercise daily etc etc ……) But most recently I’ve been trying to improve my beauty routine and learn new techniques!! Beauty books for christmas!! Thanks for all the knowledge! Happy new year
Lisa says
Started off the new year with a hangover. . .but it was worth the fun I had yesterday! Hope 2011 brings joy, peace and love to all.
Kristy says
Happy new year! I love your blog and am looking forward to your new posts this year!

Jennifer says
Happy New Year Karen and Tabs!!!
Jennifer says
Happy New Year! Last year my resolution was to stop doing things out of guilt. I’m really happy to say that I’ve done really well….which is amazing, if you knew my mother. 🙂 This year I’m going to stop doing things out of boredom….mindless tv watching, hours of internet surfing…and in particular, shopping. Having said that, I really want this Sephora card!! 🙂
Cin cin says

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Kristi says
Happy New Year Karen! I would love to win the gift card, I would probably spend it on something that I normally couldn’t afford like a ysl lipstick or Dior eyeshadow or something….
karen says
happy new years! i’m a long time lurker, first time commenter! you really help me decide on what makeup to splurge on!
in the new year, i hope to get straight a’s in school and make the deans list!! 🙂
Rebecca Fiore says
Thx. Karen — what a way to start off a new year!
Tina says
what wouldn’t i buy with a sephora gift card!!! I have already made a list!!! but I think if I buy anymore make up or accessories, my soon to be husband may divorce me before he marries me! LOL…. but if i win this gift card then he can’t say anything about it at all!!!
Thanks for the opportunity!!!
Erin says
What I would buy with that gift card:
1. UD 24/7 liner in zero – never tried it!
2. MUFE HD foundation – once again, want to try it!
3. Bare Minerals – sigh, never tried it either.
4. Sephore anti-shine smoothing primer, it has good reviews, and it’s cheap!
5. Amazing Cosmetics concealer – if I wouldn’t have enough money, the UD liner can go. 😉
Kristen says
For New Years, I spent the night at a friends, sipping Cosmos and playing pool with his family and friends. When midnight rolled over, we went out to the balcony to watch the fireworks while we listened to the bell drop on NBC.
Pretty rad. 🙂 Glad you had a great New Years, Karen!
Kristen says
I want to be more outgoing and get more involved with school
Laura says
Yo Karen-
I so want your job! Happy New Year!!!
Sal says
I’ve been told I’m a fabulous kisser :]
lun says
If I win a $100 eGift card for Sephora, I’d pick up some of the Rouge Artist Intense lipsticks from MUFE. I have my eyes on 29, 34, and 43. I’d also pick up one of the new YSL Rouge Pur lipsticks 🙂 I’d have a hard time choosing between 6, 7, and 9 though…
Briana says
I remember finding this blog in 2010 and after reading one post I had to subcribe. 2010 was a great year, I have turned this hobby if mine into a dream. Now that it’s 2011, I will work hard to fulfill my dreams of becoming an Esthetician and make myself known in the Beauty Industry.
Stacy says
Happy new year! 2011 yea!
Ariana says
Happy New Years to you, Tabs, and your husband! Thank you for everything you do for us makeup addicts.
mandy says
Since 2010 did not end on a positive note, I’m hoping to get fit, finish my Masters, and find some happy/healthy/fun times in 2011 🙂 Sephora’s my favorite store so I have a list of things in mind….Happy New Year to you!
Brianna says
My New Year’s resolution is to get healthy and write more!
laura says
yay! new year! my nye was rather low key and quiet. it’s become a trend in recent years.
Jennifer Baker says
I was out of a job as of September 2010, but I finished up my bachelors, so that’s a blessing. Goals for 2011, to be more spiritual, conscious and giving, grow my jewelry business and stay “Fancy” always. So, I would buy Lancome, Illamasqua, and benefit bella bamba! Happy New Year!
victoria says
I love your blog and Tabs! Hope you have a happy new year!
As for a resolution, I’d say no more procrastination for me and to start running like I did my senior year of track.
Nazia says
Happy New Year!
Mary says
Happy New Year to all,
My personal goal for 2011 is to be a better person in general. I hope to be a better mother, better wife, and positive person!!
attilathehoney says
Well, I am a pretty good kisser but that’s neither here nor there ;). If I won the card I’d use it to get some travel essentials for the trip I’m taking to see my beloved next month. Ooh and maybe some of those Tarte aqua-gel eyeliners that I’m obsessed with right now. They’re so creamy and wonderful!
Love the blog, by the way, you crack me up!
Anhchi Nguyen says
My goals will be more focused on my schoolwork and to stay healthy.

I personally hope 2011 is way more rockin’ than 2010! Anyway, love your blog, you do a great job, and I also really enjoy Tabs. At the risk of pumping up his ego, he is a very handsome tabby!
Alyssa says
2010 was a very annoyingly miserable year, mostly because I did such an EXCELLENT job of feeling sorry for myself 🙁
I promise 2011 will be completely different! No more comparing myself to others (i.e, about how two of my best girlfriends and my sister all got married this year while I’m pushing 30 and STILL single, about how one of my coworkers who makes less than me recently purchased a house AND a BMW (still haven’t figured out how she managed that), about how people are having babies left and right (while I’m pushing 30 and STILL single)…yada, yada, yada! But no more!!!!! 2011 will be a year of self-care (totally stole that from one of my yoga teachers) and appreciating myself for what I have right in front of me.
2011 will be a year of just simply being me!

I would give this giftcard to my mom to help her update her makeup. Her collection falls into two categories: miraculous workhorse or disappointing impulse buys. I want to replace her impulse buys with items that got consistent great reviews from here and other blogs.
JayCee says

I would lend you my son to help with chores around the house for a Sephora gift card. I’m afraid I would want him back, tho, cuz we’re pretty close. Have a great new year.
Am I the only person who didn’t realize that today was 1-1-11? No wonder so many people were getting married today.
Girl says
^^^^ Good luck to those people, you need more than numbers to make it work…..
That gift card is mine!

Janelle says
I spent New Year’s Eve in Tahoe and celebrated the new year with dancing, then fireworks! 🙂
Kristen says
I never enter blog contests, but was intrigued by this one *crosses fingers*
Shay says
Wow! I have never seen so many people participate in a giveaway before. Thanks for hosting this.
2010 is a year of growth for me. Particularly, in making myself presentable in the dating game. I thought love happens when it’s time to happen…unfortunately no. There are too many choices these days for everybody. I gota acquire my own edge. Making myself pretty do get me some results. But well, let’s just put it this way….I’m still trying to get the hang on it. Haha…
Putting on make up for me has been a therapeutic session everyday before work. Telling myself before the mirror that I can do great things at work. Tremendous confidence boost.
Jess says
Happy New Year! Love your blog~ My NYE was low key as well! Five minutes before midnight, I woke up from a nap, counted down, and then passed out again. Hah >=)
Grace says
I can definitely appreciate those quiet and relaxing nights with just my cat and hubby!
Joyce says
Hello! I’m not really THAT into makeup, but I am considering getting into it because people seem to always mistake me to be younger than I am. Plus I’m in COLLEGE now for cryin’ out loud! Love your makeup reviews + senseof humor 😀
Nicole says
Last year was difficult, but I am hopeful that this one will be better! Hope yours are all nice as well!!! At least, the party was good last night!
Lisa Marie says
I rang in the New Year by picking up a shift at work. We have been in the midst of blizzards–thus making it very treacherous or impossible for the nurses/workers to get to the hospital in which I work. I luckily live across the street! I got home this morning and my two cats (Dottie and Gene) and I immediately checked out your page. Happy New Year Beauty Maidens!
Lani says
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Thanks so much for letting me enter. Hopefully I’ll get lucky this year (I highly doubt it though). BTW, I love seeing pics of Tabs cause he looks just like my Misha girl. Keeps those pics coming.
Miss Kitty says
yuck at the fact that sephora doesnt ship internationally!
everything is like twice as expensive here, if not more… haha
how’s life, kdawg? also, m-kat [aka mittens, my kitty cat] says hello to his bro t-money.
Jenny says

Zenimue says
This year I plan to get more pics printed of my son, have tons of digital photos really need to start an archive of all his expressions! Also would like to plan our meals at least every other week. Happy New Year!
Rose says
soo….everyone is talking about how focused they are gonna be every year and la-di-dah, but i think my goal is not to focus too much…live & enjoy the now &.not over analyze everything, set goals but not obsess over them. if there is something u want to do, get to it & it will lead to happiness but if u don’t get to it, ur probably not as interested as u thought & let it go.
& in regards to this contest…i need new perfume… 🙂 kisses for giving us something to look forward too!

I love your blog, Karen! We have just about the same skin tone, so I’ve found your makeup posts to be especially great resources. If I win I would love to try new skin care products or find a concealer/foundation/powder routine that actually works for my skin. Or lipglosses. I don’t think I’ve ever used a lipgloss in my life! Thanks for the opportunity!
Joy P. says
This is great! I want a lot of stuff from Sephora so this is really a great deal! I’ll also get something for my mom as a treat 🙂
More power to your blog Karen and more years to come! Cheers!
auroragyps says
I started the year with a boring night & then with a huge pimple on my face when I woke up this morning. I’m hoping this is not an omen about how the year will turn out… one big festering sore.

I have a few goals for the new year. Of course, one is to lose those last 7 pounds and gain more muscle. I also want to find a j-o-b (interview tomorrow morning, woot!). I’m getting married in 2012, so a lot of 2011 will be wedding planning stuff — I need to work on my sometimes-stressed-bitch attitude before the real planning can begin. No Bridezilla here, hopefully!
Kati says

I hope & pray that 2011 will be MUCH, MUCH better for my children & myself! After 18 years w/ my husband; 1/1/2011. Almost 13 years married; 3/13/98. He tells me he wants a Divorce! When does he tell me this? YESTERDAY! On our 18th Anniversary! After moving us to Arkansas (from FL). The kids & I are now having to living w/ my dad (FL); dad had to fly me home in OCT. to see my Cardiologist. My <3 Cath results weren't so good! So 2011 HAS TO BE BETTER, RIGHT? I'm optomistic & keep telling my boys 2011 WILL be better, that God never gives us more than we can handle!! 🙂
Kimber Y. says
I had to work on New Year’s Day so I didn’t spend NYE partying. I had a low-key celebration at home with the BF. Happy New Year, everyone!

Anne-Marie Tannehill says
I can only hope & pray that 2011 will be better for my boys & I! My husband of nearly 13 years, the father of my 2 boys, & the man I’ve been w/ for 18 years 1/1/2011. . .tells me he’s filed for Divorce. When does he tell me, (over the phone; he’s in AR, the kids & I are in FL), LAST NIGHT, on our 18th Anniversary! I told the boys that we would be living w/ Poppy & why. That God never gives us more than we handle! 2011 IS going to be better than 2010! 🙂
Meli says
This year I want to let go of the past and start fresh! I want to get fit and take my board exam. I’m ready to start my life on the right foot. I want to be more positive this year.

2010 was a great year for me, I had fun, kicked it, but it ended a little sad for my family and I. This year I’m already more focused on what I need to do, like looking for a new job, finishing up goals I keep procrastinating on, and going back to school.
If I won this ecard, I’d focus on getting skincare products and a good eye cream.
I follow you as prettypackages on twitter.
Susan G says
Happy New Year and thanks for your many great giveaways! I’d definitely spend this on perfume. It’s the one thing I can never justify since I’ve been only working freelance and it really makes a gal feel special.

indoorkitty says
Man, last year was rough. My goal for this year is to keep the faith and keep striving in the face of failure because giving up and not believing in positive change (essentially what I did all December) does not result in any sort of life progression. I wish you, hubs and Tabs all the besticus Karen! Thanks for keeping this year interesting and informative.
Nicole says
My goal for this year is not to let anything get me down. Even if I’m having a rotten day, I won’t let it steal away my joy! Also new makeup always helps in that area! haha Happy New Year!

I was hoping to get one of those Sephora perfume sample sets for Christmas this year, but no such luck. I’ve worn the same scent for a decade, and I like the idea of these try-before-you-buy collections.

Happy New Year, Karen! Great way to start the new year – thanks so much for having such a great giveaway! I’ve had quite a challenging 2010, so here’s hoping that 2011 begins wonderfully with me winning this prize! hahah

leetal says
i always lust over products from sephora but as a tuition-paying student i find it impossible for me to afford much from there if anything. it would be very nice to win something. i would probably love to try something by chanel or ysl, or maybe get a bobbi brown concealer as my under-eye circles are the worst! either way it will be exciting for whomever wins. i hope you have a wonderful year! i love your blog 🙂

Saman says
Today, my friend Glendy and I spent about three and a half hours searching for the perfect lipstick. We went to Sephora, Macy’s cosmetic counters and Wal-Mart! I ended up getting Benefit’s lipstick in Good-To-Go. This lipstick is like my He-Man sword.
Also, yesterday was my birthday and I turned 30. My brother got up to scratched his butt or something and someone questioned him so his only answer to that was to make his God awful embarrassing toast to me and then proceeded to tell a story about how my mother killed a bee with her bare hands one time.
Cindy says
hope you had a wonderful new years 🙂
Ashley says
Happy New Year! I want to win because I need to improve the health of my skin. It’s tough because I’m the typical broke college student. This eCard would be a fantastic win!

ShannoninBC says
What a freakin STELLAR way to start the new year! Happy New Year to you, btw. My 2010 saw me start an expensive beauty product obsession while recuperating from major surgery so 2011 is the year that I dial it down, spend less and create a beauty budget – this would help, if I won! LOL Good luck everyone 🙂
Sara says
2010 is when i started getting into makeup and wanting to expand my makeup collection with high end beauty products and little money can be very difficult, so this gift card would be so helpfull!
OH and i just recently started a blog, just my way to kick off 2011
noemii says
Happy new year! I hope this year is better than the last for you! Me, well, i’m hoping that i will be able to finish another year in college. And get an idea of what my thesis is gonna be like. I forgot how challenging photography could be after kind of taking a year off from taking a single [real] photo. Puppy photos don’t count, right? This is an amazing giveaway. Whoever wins is a lucky person!
Grace vick says
What a great way to start 2011- 100 bucks worth of make up!
Kate says
The past two years have been especially rough for me; I lost my Dad to cancer in Sept 2010. He’d fought a good fight for the past 2 years but in the end, his body had had enough. To make it worse for me, he lived in BC and I live in WA so I didn’t see him as much as I wish I had been able to. I am hoping that 2011 is a better year and I am going to try yoga as well as tackle a bunch of knitting projects. I love makeup too and this year I’d like to break out of my ‘neutral’ rut!
Sarah R says
Hi Karen! Great giveaway:) Here’s to a fabulous 2011! Keep up all the great posts, you get me through most days:)

Happy New Year Karen and Tabs!! What an awesome giveaway to start the new year….

I just read ALL of Tabs’ Sunday Blogs. He’s a hoot!! I think he and my Fluff would make great kitty supermodel friends. They might compete for jobs though cuz they have similar coloring and the same physique!! =) Fluff’s a SUPERDIVA though. Naomi Campbell x 100!!! His middle initial is F for Fierce!! He would like one of your kitty eyeshadow makeover’s though. He thinks they’re hot. Even though he’s a boy, he’s super pretty!!! Love your work – keep it up!!! =)
