So, the movie, Oblivion, I hearted it much more than I expected. It was maybe a tad slow at times…but I thought it had some thought provoking ideas. I have to say, though, I’m a big sci-fi fan, so I unconsciously overlook plot holes sometimes.
Tom Cruise was, ya know, Cruisin’ it up, being his usual…efficient self. It’s weird, but that guy always has to sprint or run somewhere in his movies. Ever notice that? Maybe it’s written into his contract: “Mr. Cruise must run for a minimum of 200 yards at an all-out sprint for a total of no less than 20 seconds of screen time.” Haha.
I thought the special effects were great, with contrasting grimy elements and sparse, clean machines and empty landscapes. The CGI doesn’t look overly CGI, either. The whole thing looks like a cross between Bladerunner and Minority Report. And there are these unemotional, terrifying guard machines in it called drones that are scary like flying terminators!
In other news, El Hub did notice my eye makeup last night. Not specifically the blending, but he said, “Your makeup looks pretty,” which translates to everything I wanted to hear. 🙂
Have yourself a great weekend, okay? I haven’t figured out my game plan yet. Probably just some errands and chores around the house. Talk to you soon.
Good luck in this weekend’s giveaway. Details to enter are down below.

Jace says
Hi Karen! I’m sick in bed and your website is making me feel so much better (I think it has to do with all the lovely colors. And Tabs! Yay!)
So thank you. Have a beautiful weekend 🙂
Kiss & Make-up says
I am SO in. Just had about the worst night and day of my life. To list a few things that happened: boyfriend got so drunk last night that he had to be taken home by some mystery girl he met (great), he lost our laptop (not sure yet if we’ll ever find or get it back), got in a big fight with one of the neighbors because I used the laundry machine in the building without his permission (boyfriend had thrown up in our bed so it was an urgency…), accidentally dyed all the laundry pink because there was a red towel in there somewhere, and dropped (and broke) my new Chanel lipstick. All in less than 24 hours. And I am sure I am forgetting things…
Kiss & Make-up says
*emergency, not urgency.
Kristin Gagnon says
Love love love!!!! Just got a new makeup box and can’t wait to fill it up!!

Ineke says
I reorganized my shoes today. Lesson learned?… Stop buying shoes?… Hmmm
Hugs to Tabs. Have a great weekend!
Niya says
Not a movie or book, but Roswell is my favorite sci-fi series. It’s this cross between sci-fi and romance, about a girl who falls in love with an alien. It sounds corny but the execution was really well done, it was filmed in the late 90s/early 00s so it has a nice nostalgic vibe to it if you watch it back and it’s made by the same guy who produced Friday Night Lights and Parenthood. Really loved that show
Tina says
Just bought a Nars blush at Sephora!
Alida Giordano says
Good morning Karen! I though I was the only one who noticed Tom Cruise sprints in his movies. He straits his back and push it forward! I just love the way he runs. (I think he runs like a… demon! hihi) I also love the way Matt Damon runs. I just love to see guys running. I’m loving everything today. OMG, the pics you posted yesterday, you and Tabs huggin! Amazing ones. XOXO from Cancun!
Veronica says
I watched the latest Ryan Gosling movie this weekend, The Place Beyond the Pines… excellent!!!
Barbara says
Blade Runner is my favorite sci-fi movie.
Jacque says
I used to think I couldn’t wear lime green eyeshadow, but for kicks I tried it out the other day and actually loved it! Who’d of thought?
On another note, your recent poll reminded me that my dog Snoop was sometimes curious when I put on lipstick, but he probably just thought it might be food. He was a little food obsessed 🙂
Jerilyn says
Yay! What a great giveaway 🙂 My least favourite eye shadow colour is blue. I’ve never been able to find one that looks classy on me.
Nat M says
Love tabby cats! Have you found any makeup lines you like on Etsy?

I have such a hard time figuring out if I’m cool or warm skinned tone that I like to say I’m neutral. One of these days I should have it professionally diagnosed:)
Laura says
I would love to just study languages all the time, to practice conversations with native speakers. Or study abroad again and be fully immersed in French, Italian, or Japanese.
Tiffanie says
I have been into looks that emphasize blush a lot lately so I haven’t worn any colored eyeshadows in a while. I’ve basically just worn cream, beige and bronze.
Mush says
Would be happy to take a gift card off your hands!
Aelyn says
Yellow. There’s Just something about that color that makes it hideous on my eyes! And bright green… that looks weird too.
Tiffanie says

Leonora says
Hi Karen,
I thought I will never wear a dark pink or purple eye shadow. I always had the feeling will make me look like I’m sick. Last week for the first time I tried a purple one and I actually liked it a lot. Maybe because it such such a nice purple that I could not resist and thought it will be a great time to try it. I am not sure if I will ever try a deep pink or red on my eyelids, but for now I’m loving the purple.
camille says
karen! i was so stoked for those bare minerals lipsticks, that i didn’t read that they’re available next month! sayang and 15% off at sephora! :/ way too excited to try those lipsticks! gonna try bobbi brown’s concealer, with the 15% off coupon 🙂 hope you’re having a great weekend!

Annaham says
My favorite sci-fi film would be a two-way tie between David Cronenberg’s Videodrome (1983–and yes, OCC named one of the nail polishes in its recent LE collection after this film!) and EXISTENZ (2000, same director). Both are super creepy!
Lisa Brown says
I love watching Midsomer Murders
Alix says
I love that Mad Men is back!
Tiffany says
I sooooo wish I could go back to school for photography!!
Kat says
Hey Karen! I’m currently enjoying my April Break, which has been an amazing break from the stress of my everyday life. I’ve been busy doing nothing; sleeping extra, working on my diet, playing with my pup and kitty, and reading makeup blogs. Yours is one of my top favorites! I love your sense of humor, it just brightens my day. 🙂
Thanks!
Your loyal reader, Kat

Meredith says
My fave sci-fi books are A Wrinkle in Time and the companion books by Madeline L’engle. I’d love to win this week but I’m actually rooting for “kiss and make up”. Sounds like she could use a lift 🙂

Jasmine says
I like Essie’s “mint candy apple” 🙂
Rachel says
Babylon 5 is my favorite show of all-time. Every time I finish watching it, I start it over again. I am a huge fan of sci-fi, but I find a lot of them lose the human element which is what makes us connect. Babylon 5 truly is a study in characters, with a sci-fi background. It’s about working through our differences to create a better future, all while facing the human nature to acquire power. Doing what is right instead of what is convenient. It’s got some similar elements to Star Trek, but much more human. They don’t live in this great society where everyone works for free and whatnot. They live in our world, people are still people and no one does anything without ulterior motives. The characters are fantastic and full-fleshed. It’s a show that makes me want to be part of something bigger than myself, and to be a better person. Shows like it don’t come along very often. It’s been off the air for nearly 15 years and I don’t know many people that even remember it… but if you haven’t watched it, please do. <3
Trang says
I really want the new Dior palettes so badly!!
Julia says
Purple has to be my least favorite eyeshadow color! Weird because I can usually rock most eyeshadow colors, including bright chartreuse, orange, pink, red, bright cobalt … I totes dig purple shadow on other peeps, but it just looks “off” on me.
Maria says
I’m going to be cliche and say Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy 🙂 Thank you!
Y. says
skin is warm tone aka super annoying!!
Joy says
Does Doctor Who or Eureka count?
Alison says
I love blue eye shadows in swatches and on other people, but whenever I actually try to wear one, it just looks like way too much.
Dorothy says
Going to Hong Kong this summer!
Julia Alkaseltzer says
Sci-fi film or book — I think the most thrilling I’ve read was Ender’s Game. I’m trying to get into the whole series!
Best movie makeup — I’d have to give this one to Lord of the Rings. From the ugly orcs to the youthful elves.
Least favorite eye makeup color — I’m going with dark teal.
Just taking a relaxing Saturday off. Hope you’re having a wonderful Saturday, too, Karen!!
hong le says

Amy Z says
I’ve been looking for the perfect creamy turqouise-blue nail polish right now! I feel like the color just exudes class and elegance =)
Caitlin says
Blue nail polish can be tricky, especially when you’re as pale as I am, because you look like you’re having severe breathing problems and turning blue. Lol. But a navy blue or a silvery blue could probably be okay.
Marly~ says
SO excited. finally getting my hands on the new tarte waterproof palette. 😀
Lala says
I just bought 6 maybelline color whisper lipbalms on a bogo 1/2off at Rite Aid. I feel guilty…and poor! 😉

Toby says
Favourite sci-fi book is Monica Hughes’s Invitation to the Game. 🙂
Joanne E. says
Does anyone look good with yellow eyeshadow?

Margie says
My fave blue-green nail polish is China Glaze For Audrey.
Julie Greenwood says
I’m a big fan of Star Trek, The Next Generation, but mostly because I like Patrick Stewart.

I’m going to make some lipsticks from crayons after watching the tutorials on YouTube

Christina says
Loved The X Files movie. I’m a cornball.
Aida says
We saw Oblivion last night too, but even though it was an interesting concept, I found it a not boring and predictable. Tom Cruise looked pretty sexy in this leather suite, riding his bike, though ;).
VictoriaJane says
Bladerunner is my absolute favorite movie of all time. Be still my beating heart, Deckard . . .
Lamisse says
My favourite blue/green nail polish is
across the Universe by Deborah Lippmann! Sooooo much glitter glasm in a tiny square bottle. Love.
Karen K says
Yellow is my least favorite eye makeup color. Well, tied with Orange. Eww. I am cool toned. Here’s a confessional for you. I have been SO good about not buying makeup lately (except that episode with the Sonia Kashuk quad you made me buy) but a You Tube video pushed me over the edge and made me buy stuff from Sephora and Nordstrom in the wee hours of the night. Back on the wagon. The wagon that is overloaded with too much makeup!
Ruchita says

I am ill in bed. Wish I watched TV, but I have your blog instead!

Neesh says
Still being tempted by those nars pencils!
Lydia says
My least favorite eye makeup color is blue.
Kristen says
I think the makeup in “Les Mis” was amazing. Yeah, all that dirt and grime was awesome (and blood…and just Hugh Jackman), but I did notice in the giant close ups of Amanda Seyfried’s face, she looked like she was wearing nothing, she just looked like a normal girl, which I love when movies do that.
Heather USA (fb: rosie areola/@aitch77) says
Boston Strong! 😀
Krista says
I always loved Stargate.
dawn says
Firefly is the best sci fi show ever!
Ashley says
My least favorite eye shadow color is blue. I like it on other people, but I just can’t get it to work for me. However, “blue me away” by Sally Hanson is one of my all time favorite nail polish colors. That, and “Mint Sprint.”

Jenna D says
I love blue nail polish
Amie says
My skin tone is neutral to cool. My least favorite eye shadow color is medium brown (I know most people LOVE neutrals but they just aren’t my favorites)
Kristen says
I can’t stand Tom Cruise and haven’t seen one of his movies since “Born on the 4th of July,” long before he jumped on Oprah’s couch. I hope this doesn’t reduce my chances of winning.
Evelyn says
my favourite blue/green is For Audrey by China Glaze!
Erica says

Carolyn N. says
I’m busting out my OPI Pirates of the Caribbean polishes!
Kay says
I’m so warm/yellow toned, I’m practically a Simpson’s character.

Happy weekend =). My favorite sci-fi book is Hyperion by Dan Simmons. I would recommend the book so much. I love the makeup in sci-fi and fantasy movies. Also historical ones like Cleopatra. Her eye makeup was so amazing lol.

Least favorite eyeshadow is orange. I can shades of red or yellow work, but orange never works on me.
Alyza Rae says
I only have five more days left of my freshman year of college! Ohmygod how did that happen!?!

Sunny says
Just came across your site for the first time while searching for concealer reviews, and I love it! I am sold on the new Nars Radiant concealer based on your post and plan to get it from Sephora ASAP! I don’t know makeup very well, and am excited to find recommendations from a fab girl with some color (I’m Indian). You may push me out of my makeup comfort zone!
Deborah says
I finally gave in and ordered the Chanel Loose Powder… can’t wait to see how it works!
Lori P says
I’m warm toned in skin color and I don’t care much for any shade of blue eye shadows. They are too hard to work with for me.
Sylvia says
I’m in Illinois where we enjoyed some sunshine today (yay!) but also a chill wind ( not yay ), and I froze my toes because I want to wear sandals! I’m spending tonight watching a movie or maybe two, and being held down by a tiny cat.
jasmine says
Omg ate too many girl guide cookies. Anyway my least favourite eye shadow colour is probably blue.
LauraA says
Least favorite shadow shade is a bright, true red. I find it hard to work with. Although it typically looks lovely in some of the palettes I’ve seen it in.
Thanks for another great giveaway opportunity, Karen! 🙂

I love make-up and nail polish. My favorite color of polish is blue – I have more blue than any other color. I love seeing your cat. I have a cat also, a fellow tabby!
Bonnie says
Fact.
First day of snowfall this winter in Edmonton Alberta is October 20, 2012, today is it April 20, 2013, and it is snowing. 6 whole months of snow =(
MK says
I happen to think yellow eye-shadow is the worst! I’ve yet to see anyone pull if off successfully, but that’s just me 🙂
adia says
My least favorite eye makeup color is wine – pink color, which makes my eyes look swollen 😉
auroragyps says

Laney says
My favorite sci-fi movie is definitely Blade Runner!
Kala says
Have you seen any good indie movies lately?
Kylie says
If I could go back to school and didn’t have to pay a dime for it, I would study theater/acting. I always had an interest in it, but I let my fear of being out there on the stage scare me. It may be as “useless” as majoring in English Literature and not being a teacher, but I’m sure I would have had fun and made lots of awesome friends. 🙁
Michelle Teixeira says
I wore a grass green matte shadow today with a beige cream shadow base and it still stained my eye lids. Thanks MUFE. But, that just gave me a reason to stand on the steam shower for 10 more minutes. So it wasn’t the worst thing I have ever experienced makeup wise.
Heidi says
I try to never say never when it comes to makeup colors, but I’m not sure I could pull of red shadow without looking insane or ill!
Clemence says
I really love Essie’s Turquoise and Caicos
Maria says
Hi, Tabs and Karen! This is Maria from Boston, and I’m reporting that we’ve had a pretty tough week in the Hub :(. The past week has been full of emotion, stress, sleepless nights, and finally the capture of one of the suspects. I love your blog because it is so cheery, fun, and colorful! I love all of the pictures of Tabs, too :). I go to Northeastern, and today they had therapy dogs come visit we students on campus. Where are the therapy cats, I say!? I wonder if Tabs has ever done any therapy cat/humanitarian work? Haha, thank you and Tabs for brightening a difficult week. Best wishes from Boston!
Cassidey says
I’m still looking for the perfect neutral eyeshadow palette!
Benita says
My favorite sci-fi movie is Godzilla; I even like the old ones with voice overs!

Hey Karen and Tabs!!! My favorite blue polish at the moment is Essie’s trophy wife! It’s the perfect blue-green color for spring/summer =] I think my least favorite color eyeshadow to wear is yellow, it just looks odd with my skin color lol
Have a great weekend!!!!
Ashley
Roxanne says
I intend to go back to school, but not for my lifelong passion. Most likely I’m going into nursing, but if money and time were not an issue, I’d pursue my dream job: become a paleontologist!

I am a little obsessed with Benefit’s Watts Up as a highlighter

So glad you liked Oblivion. My bf is taking tomorrow and I hadn’t heard of it so I wasn’t excited, but now I am b/c I know you like it ^_^
Katty says
I would go back to school and study art.
Christin Imfrost says
Feels like spring today 🙂 Yaay for that!
Step says
Warm toned here!
olivia says
My ideal day would be drinking coffee and spending hours in Sephora!!!
MelodyJ says
My favorite sci-fi movie is 2009 Star Trek movie. I loved fresh new take on it. If I could go back to school without paying I would study Public Administration.I would like to take my life in a new direction. My skin tone is neutral. I can wear cool and warm colors well. My favorite blue polish is Orly Royal Navy.
noemii says
bought three Illamasqua nail polishes for six bucks each on clearance. good day :]

I want to try bold eye shadows like bright yellow or lime green during a regular work day!
Laura Case says
Excited to hit up Sephora tomorrow for the last day of 15% sale!

Hazel Le says
Hi, Tabs and Karen!
Hazel Le says
I’m currently eyeing that Shiseido lipstick. And the kit at HauteLook website.
Cara says
mint green nail polish is my fav!
Tran says
I think one of the best movie makeup I’ve seen is the makeup in Avatar.
Sara says
i love make up and cats <3
Yelena says
omg this would be awesome right about now! happy saturday everyone!
Sara says
i love make up and cats!
Yelena says
p.s. i dont use blue or green nail polish. i haven’t done so since elementary school haha. i’m pretty boring when it comes to nail polish i stick to french manicure most days and red or fuschia when i’m feeling daring 🙂
Julie says
I am loving nail stamping kits. Makes non-neutral colors much more wearable
Carly says
I bought Raspberry Swirl and Pure Decoration from the MAC Baking Beauties collection.
Justene says
I want to see Oblivion! Maybe I’ll wait until it goes to a second-run theater though.
Sharon S says
My least favorite eyeshadow color is blue; looks great on other people, though.
Leah says
This movie was in NO WAY known for its make up, but there was a really gorgeous smokey eye on one of the Bond girls in Skyfall. (And I felt like a huge dork for noticing it haha.)
Yogirl says
My favorite blue nail polish is Chanel Blue Rebel. Happy weekend!
Chanelle (C.M.) says
Favorite blue polish? Sinful Colors endless blue.
Kayla S. says
I’m a huge sf/fantasy nerd (my parents actually met at a science fiction convention, so I was doomed from the start). I just finished “The Year of the Flood” by Margaret Atwood, which is an amazing book and an excellent followup to “Oryx and Crake.” I probably shouldn’t have read it right after reading “The Road” by Cormac McCarthy, though…hopefully the Nars blush in Sex Appeal that’s in the mail to me will get my mind off the impending apocalypse.
Lexi says
My fave green n/p at the moment is the Flower Beauty polish in Thistle or That. I get a lot of compliments on this and it wears very well.
Nora says
Have a great weekend everyone!
Claire says
I’d study child psychology and early education!
Nicky says
I can’t wait to receive my Naked 1 Urban Decay Palette in the mail.. I’m australian too! 😀
Debbie says
Least favorite eye color is pink – makes me look sickly!
sevenoctobers says
If there’s a movie that exemplifies the power of makeup, it would be “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.” Just look at the way Rooney Mara’s character shifts from “anti-establishment” to “It Girl” and back. ’nuff said. 🙂
Cassie says
I am light skin with yellow and olive undertones which makes finding a foundation color a nightmare… Most foundations are not yellow enough…ugh!
sevenoctobers says
Green + blue nail polish = fall French manicure. Revlon’s Fashionista or Chanel’s Blue Rebel as base and Revlon’s Emerald or OPI’s Jade is the New Black on the tips. I <3 this Malachite look on my nails.
Mysak says
I am blonde with green eyes and I look so stupid with blue eyeshadow, used to wear it when I was 11… Ugh, still don’t get why my mum let me go to school looking like that.
mn says
So happy to see sings of Spring.
Pamela says
I’m intrigued by the orange lip colour trend at the moment but am too scared to try it out myself!
Liz says
I have trouble wearing warm toned eyeshadows – yellow, orange, red, that sort of thing. I end up looking like there’s a fading bruise or like I have the flu. Bummer to lose half the color spectrum like that!
Missy M says
The Fifth Element!
Amanda Sakovitz says
My skin is warm toned!
Daniella says
One of my recent favorite sf films is Prometheus.
If I could go back to school with all expenses paid I would study Art History..
Anna says
If I could go back to school I would study either history, music, or art. Or since money isn’t an issue I could just study all three 🙂
irini says
I hate the color purple. 😛
Rebekah says
The weather here can’t seem to make up its mind. Yesterday it was gorgeous and in the 80s and now today it is in the 40s. I want spring!
Lisa @ Lisa Living Well says
If I could go back to school and not pay a dime, I would study to become a registered dietitian because I love nutrition.
Ashleigh says
I have neutral undertone!
Jennifer Pham says
Hi! I just want to say, How to Train Your Dragon is one of my favorite movies! It’s sooo charming, funny, touching . . . good job Dreamworks!
Valerie says
Since my makeup obsession started, when watching movies or any TV show, the first thing I do is checkout and analyze their makeup and how it was done. And I enjoy it! I love checking out makeups of ladies from American Idol and America’s Next Top Model.
Mariee says
Warm toned.
Sheryl E says
My favorite book and movie of all time is Pride and Prejudice. I read and watch at least once a year.
virginie says
Hi Karen,
That question was for me, lol. If I could go back to school, I would study Make up of course!!! I know a bunch, but I would love to do this as a professional!!! Sighh…My dream!
Leona says
I love the highlither pearl by mac because it is an allround talent
Rebecca Cash says
I’m like Katrina….I need my tone professionally diagnosed 🙁
Elena Toader says
Today I cooked for the first time broccoli cream soup… actually I’m cooking it right now…I wish I had more free time to try and experiment different type of recipes
Injla says
I am warm toned! And if I didn’t have to pay a dime I’d go to fashion school
Larie says
I often love the makeup in period pieces – it’s like the perfect natural beauty sort of thing.
Sandy says
My favorite sci-fi series? I’d have to say it’s a tie between Dune and the Lord of the Rings. And please pick me—I need some skincare supplies LOL.
Kay says
I don’t have a least favorite eye makeup color. I tend to play with all colors.
Amy C says
Mornin’ Karen and Tabs! Enjoying coffee on the porch this morning– yay Spring weather! Hope y’all are having a great weekend =)
Tiffany says
I can’t wait to play badminton today!
Thomas Murphy says
Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
angela says
Turcoise & Caicos from Essie is my favorite blue/green nail polish.
Steph says
Not a movie, but I loooove Stargate: SG-1. It ran for 10 seasons and got better with each, which is really cool because I find long-running shows tend to slacken after the first few seasons. Except this, and Breaking Bad. Ahhh, I miss Breaking Bad!
Jihae says
I’m going to stop by Sephora today, and I’ve been browsing your blog for shopping list ideas 🙂
Katie F says
I don’t like blue, but I’ve been dying to try OCC Blackboard nail polish – it seems like a perfect blackened/dusty dark green.
My skin tone is almost totally neutral, just leaning *slightly* warm. My dad is German and very very cool/pink, and my mom is Mexican and very warm/olive, and I got something just about right in the middle. It’s great for lipstick and eye makeup since most colors don’t go too cool/warm on me, but it’s impossible to find foundation!
Jenny D says
New GOT tonight, yay! I’m always curious to see what they’ll squish into one episode and what will just get cut.
Emily says
Fav sci-fi series is definitely Star Trek TNG. I love the message of striving for peaceful coexistence with other cultures, it always makes me feel a little bit better about humanity!
Kei says
The Fifth Element is my all time fave scifi flick. I think I’ve seen it over 200 times!
Cynthia F. says
My favorite sci-fi movie is Aliens.
Darlene says
Beautiful, perfect day today 🙂

So anxious!!! Just one day until my In vitro!!! Yeiiii!!!

Cristina says
Just watched The Hobbit last night…it was so so. Happy Sunday!
amanda j. says
would love to do a little splurging in sephora. yesterday someone asked who sephora was when i was talking about going there. hilarious.
EVA GOMEZ says
I CURRENTLY WORK FOR AN ORGANIZATION THAT HELPS CHILDREN OR ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES, BEFORE I GOT TO KNOW THE CHILDREN I SEEN THEM DIFFERENTLY THAN I DO NOW. THEY ARE LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, EVERYDAY I WAKE UP AND I AM EXCITED TO ACTUALLY INTERACT WITH THEM AND MAKE THEM FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE SOMEONE THERE FOR THEM. WHAT I WOULD DO IF I DID NOT HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING IS MAJOR IN HUMAN RESOURCE I REALLY WANT TO GO IN THIS FIELD NOT ONLY FOR THE CHILDREN BUT FOR THE EXPERIENCE THAT I LOVE DOING. I WOULD LOVE TO PURSUE IN WORKING WITH CHILDREN OR ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES BECAUSE THEY FEEL LIKE THEY ARE BY THEMSELVES AND JUST BY MAKING THEM SMILE MAKES MY WHOLE YEAR. I AM DOING A WONDERFUL JOB AND WOULD TO GO FOR THAT IF I DID NOT HAVE TO PAY A DIME FOR SCHOOL.
-THANK YOU FOR READING
Jamie C. says
My Least Favorite Eye makeup Color has to be Yellow because it’s so hard to find one that is vibrant and isn’t powdery looking.
Millie says
Hi Karen! I loved Effie Trinket’s makeup in Hunger Games. Not that I would wear it but she always looked cool whatever color she wore!
Mary says
My least favorite eye shadow color is red.
Erin says
I’d say my favorite sci-fi movie is Sunshine. In addition to being a great (and really moving, I think) movie, it also has a fantastic score and stars Cillian Murphy, who I looove to look at.
Isabel says
I love aqua nail polishes!
Katherine Horn says
My favorite fantasy book (not really sci-fi) is Stardust by Neil Gaiman.
Evelyn says
I love green nail polish especially mint green

Fei says
Karen, I absolutely ADORE your blog. I recently bought two of the Sonia Kashuk Moraccan Dunes palette because your eyes just looked so beautiful with them on <3
Becky says
It is a beautiful day!
Sandy says
My favorite sci fi book is ender’s game!
and with the 50 bucks i’m hopingto be able to purchase a guerlain meteorites powderrr. i’ve been eyeing that thing forever but i can’t justify spending the 58 bucks on it!
blkrox says
Star Wars!!
Sandy says
I love Tabs!
Jennifer says
Hi Karen-
Beautiful and warm day over here in CoCo County. If I could go back to school without having to worry about money I’d be a research doctor or a “House-like diagnostician” (not as cranky, though). Would love to work at the CDC on disease outbreak origins or maybe be a research pharacologist. Or work with Level 4 contageous diseases. I enjoy figuring things out.
Jennifer

Just discovered nailprimer from orly. Looooove it. Even manicures from now on! Yeeeeee!
Jen @ Happy Little Homemaker says
I was tickled to see the May Preview & QVC TSV in the last week for Bare Minerals!
Rachel says
Hi Karen! Glad to hear you’re having a great weekend. Mine has consisted of cleaning and trying to put bright colored claw covers on my cats. Unfortunately, one of them doesn’t like her kitty manicure. I think the Kelly green shade is lovely with her tuxedo colors, but she may prefer a classic red.
I’m also hitting up a CCO tomorrow and making notes of what I want to look for. Particularly, items from past MAC collections (like, say, maybe a lone Marilyn lipstick or beauty powder?) and Estée Lauder’s Violet Underground palette.
Jody says
I can’t wait for the new Dior summer collection – the colors are so beautiful.
Bunny says
Yellow is for sure my least favourite eye makeup colour!
Lisa says
I just got accepted to a study abroad program in Paris! Au revoir, tout le monde!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Megan says
My skin is somewhere between neutral and cool toned.
Grace says
My favorite sci-fi tv-series is Dr Who (all seasons)! And my least favorite eye makeup color is green- it just doesn’t seem to work for me! I always end up looking a little evil >:)
D says
I love Chanel Riva <3
Brittany says
I watched 42 this weekend and it was phenomenal!! If you haven’t seen it yet, I’d really reccomnd it. Such an inspiring movie.
ali says
love makeup!
janey says
My fave green nail polish is Butter LONDON’s British Racing Green. Looks good both with/without a tan on my tootsies!
Mai says
I think my least favorite eyeshadow color is pink! There’s just something about the color that I think isn’t as flattering on me.
milaxx says
I saw Oblivion at a special screening Tuesday. They had a video chat with Tom & the writer afterwards. The reason tings didn’t look too CGI was because it wasn’t. They filmed the cloud scenes at the Antarctic with some special camera they literally got straight off the production line. Anyway I liked the movie and was willing to overlook how much “borrowing” was done from other sci fi movies.
PS. I should introduce Tabs to my kitty Stormaggedon: The Oncoming Fury aka Stormie
Vanessa says
I am almost done with this semester of school!:)
Brooke says
I recently discovered Mongrels on Hulu plus. Puppets + Inappropriate jokes/storylines + cats = love.
Angela Clark says
I am not ready for the coming summer heat. As I get older, I find heat bothering me SOOOO much.
Kristin says
yay!
Sherry says
Well well…..I am sitting on a dock with CeraVe sunscreen on waiting on a fishing hubby and really wishing I was shopping at Sephora! Next best thing? Reading your blog 🙂
Juliana Benavides says
I love makeup but don’t know why I can’t do it with blue, whether on my nails or my eyes I just don’t feel the color blue in all the shades.
Hugs Doll
Emily A says
Dude, whenever I see new technology.. like tablets and Google glasses.. I totally think of Minority Report. Where are our hover cars?!?
Kat says
Can’t wait for summer!!
Jasmine says
Hi Karen,
I’ve had the flu all week,but your blog always cheers me up!
RudeGirl says
I saw Upstream Color last night… it’s gonna take another viewing to come up with a decent interpretation.
Germaine Sikat says
I love and like your blogs!!
Patricia H. says
Hi Karen,
I want to see Oblivion also. I still haven’t seen Jack Reacher though! Anyhow here’s to hoping I win the gift card. Give my love to Tabs.
Jennifer says
I have been reading this blog for YEARS! It has guided me though many a makeup question, and has inspired me to begin writing my own blog. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!
Lauren k k says
Hi Karen! I love tabs the cat!
Shannon H. says
I just had the most delicious turkey sandwich. Happy Sunday to you and Tabs!
Karla says
:))
Esther says
not a film or book, but does Doctor Who count as sci-fi? because good holy everything, that show is amazing.
Alexis says
I just ordered the Beauty Blender and I really hope it lives up to the hype! I’m obsessing over the Dior bronzer/blush that you posted about a few days ago, though. I can’t wait to see it in person!
BB says
My skin is warm toned–I think! Green veins are the indicator right?
stacy says
My husband never notices my makeup which is maybe a good thing.
Jackie says
If I could travel to any planet and not have its outerspace effects affect me I would go to Pluto because I feel bad for it since its planet status got taken away. It must be lonely out there all on its own!
steph b says
If I could go to school tuition free and living expenses paid for, I’d go to law school.
Allie F says
I’ve never really understood red eyeshadow. At least no on my pale face!
TheGlamorousNomad says
Favorite sci fi book is Lilith’s Brood by Octavia Butler! Favorite lipgloss is Jaipur, one of the Chanel Glossimers 🙂
Jordanna says
Love your blog! Always evolving and keeping it fresh creatively.
Jess says
Growing up, I LOVED the makeup on Buffy The Vampire Slayer — humans and monsters alike! Definitely what got me into makeup from the very beginning 😀
Let says
My least favorite eye makeup (especially eye shadow) color is purple. Not because I can’t wear it but because people overhyped it– all while saying blues shouldn’t be worn.
Nidia Mendoza says
I love lipsticks and eyeliner. I cant step outside without those two items.
christine says
Pink shadow is majorly unflattering on me.
Katrina says
Funnily enough, pink eyeshadow is a colour I can pull off. Just keep all yellows far far away from me!
Susan says
Least favorite eye shadow color is burgundy, which looks like a bloody bruise….guess it’d be my go-to for the Zombie Apocalypse!
Maia says
Hi I’m a new follower of your blog & I love it. It’s so helpful ! 🙂 thanks so much!
Irene says
If I could go back to school I would love to become a microbiologist.
Ashley says
Just got home from a crawfish boil!
brittany says
ooooh la la!!
MORGAN DEAN says
I LOVE THE MAKEUP IN TRUEBLOOD
Elin LLB says
I can never really tell if my skin is warm toned or cool toned. Isn’t there a happy medium?
Sadhana says
I love Tom Cruise, and I love all of his sci-fi movies! “The Tom Cruise Run” is definitely a thing – they’ve mentioned it on Cougar Town a few times, haha. He’s the best action-runner.
Sarah W says
I’m trying to expand my horizons, but I cannot do blue eyeshadow in a way I like!
alexa says
Ohhh!!! I would love, love, love, LOVE to win this!! I have my eye on some stila stuff…. But also some Benefit things too… Basically, I want highlighters! I love the dewy look! 😉
Lucia Valencia says
I’m obssesed with nail polish and RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Melissa says
Best lazy day ever
Amy says
So I’m wearing Orly’s Halley’s Comet and I. Can’t. Stop. Looking. At. My. Nails………..
Tovah says
Illamasqua is my new favorite line of cosmetics. Everything is great, except the containers, which are really cheap. Great colors though!
Marisa says
I would go back and major in what I already did (criminal justice with a focus in victim’s studies) but I would minor in Spanish and I would have wanted to do a semester abroad.
Tatyana G says
I can never pull off a pink or red eye shadow. Hope you had a great weekend.
Joanne H says
Lord of the rings trilogy is my fave sci fi.
CL says
Still trying out my several blue polishes, but my favorite blue-green (very close to Tiffany blue) is Essie’s Where’s My Chauffeur?
Taylor says
one day, I’m going to buy a coral eyeshadow and rock it so hard. until that day, I’ll just be here. wearing it on my lips like a boring person.
Rebecca Song says
OMG! Where do I begin – going through high school with a lot of acne, I always thought my skin was cool-toned (because of the redness), and being broke in college all the time meant I paid little attention to my skin and what foundation I was using. As I got back into higher end makeup, I started realizing that I might be actually warm in my undertone but I just went into Sephora last night, and the makeup artist colormatched me as a neutral! haha go figure.
Anna says
Watched Oz the Great and Powerful last week and could not stop fawning over Theodora’s makeup! I LOVE IT SO MUCH. And also Mila Kunis <3333
Dijana says
Ive actually never been to a spa! Never really felt like doing the body treatment thing (massages, skin treatments, etc) and my skin is so sensitive (breaks out to absolutely everything) that I was always terrified of what all those scented products and procedures would cause! haha am I missing out??
EfraÃn says
I hope this time to have luck, right now the prize will be for skincere not for lemmings.
Jess L says
If I could go back to school and not pay a dime I would go back and get my Masters degree in Marriage & Family Therapy after taking the semester off I gave myself permission for (4 years ago) oh how time flies. Lol. 🙂
Christy says
I’m really excited for the Tarte Aqualillies face pallete!
Ruth says
my fav sc-fi series is the dresden files-Jim Butcher/ it’s like Harry Potter grew up and opened his own business
Marija says
Happy Monday everyone!Have a nice week!
Colleen says
Sci-fi…I want to say Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.’s stuff. It was just so different from anyone else’s. Red Dwarf is the funniest sci-fi tv show…I’ve seen only parts of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
“The first ten million years were the worst,” said Marvin, “and the second ten million years, they were the worst too. The third ten million years I didn’t enjoy at all. After that I went into a bit of a decline.”
Have a nice rest-of-the-weekend!
Carla says
When I think of SF makeup in movies, I think of the most recent Star Trek movie and the green-skinned girl :>
Mandy says
Am i still in time to enter the contest? I’m from the Netherlands, so i’m in a different time zone (i’m from the future…kind of…hahaha…sounds very SciFi!) I love it when my husband gives me a compliment on my makeup 🙂
Jean says
Loving this beautiful weather up in the bay!
Bernice says
I’m finally done all my papers and finals 😀
