So…my arms have been killing me all week long, and up until a few seconds ago, I’d attributed it to yoga, but now I’m thinking it might have something to do with Brita.
I got this Brita water bottle for Christmas that appears to have been designed for The Incredible Hulk, because that’s how strong you have to be to squeeze it and force the water through the filter thingy attached to the spout.
Good gawd! I’m squeezing so hard that my entire body quakes and veins pop out on my forehead.
Who knows? Maybe it’s just clever marketing on Brita’s part. They get you so worked up squeezing the bottle that you get thirsty and therefore squeeze the bottle even more, LOL!
Anywho, enough about my perpetually parched self. Let’s get to today’s giveaway! 🙂

I do like the taste of tap water.
Kierston says
I always end up using my loreal foundation the most over the week! Oh and enter please!!

I never drink bottled water! The tap water where I live is deliciousssss and I always have a refillable water bottle with me – I probably drink about 5 litres every day!
Lauren Sutherland says
I’m in love with my new 1 1/4 inch curling iron. it’s amazing!
Carla says
I definitely don’t drink enough water. I’m probably dehydrated most of the time because I forget to drink water – even when it’s sitting right next to me. For some reason, I rarely get thirsty.
Sunny @ Mostly Sunny says
Hahaha the Incredible Hulk. You crack me up!
My favorite bottled water is a Belgian brand called Spa. The still one is good, and the sparkling one is SUPER sparkling!
Liz K says
I am trying to drink more water and have given up soda 🙂
DanielleMonifa says
One of my resolutions is actually to start drinking more water. I used to drink twelve+ cups daily and I’ve stopped since late 2011 which is no good for my health not my skin
Lindsey says
I pretty much drink exclusively water unless I’m having an afternoon or evening tea. We also got a juicer for Christmas so I’ve been juicing it up (and I keep getting over-excited and throwing in too much ginger root). I’m fortunate to have an excellent water filtration both at my home and work, and I always carry refillable bottles, my favorite being my Platypus bottle that I can fold up into my purse when empty.
Joy says
I have a Brita filter jug. Bottled water is too expensive and environmentally unsound.
D-nice says
I maybe love water too much, I drink way more than the recommended 8 glasses a day. A cool glass of tap water is the most refreshing way to wake up!! Not thrown in your face of course…no fun. 😉
jennifer says
i’ve been really into flavored seltzer water recently. vanilla seltzer is really really good.
terry says
I try. But I don’t necessarily succeed, LOL…
Tina Suh says
For the past 3 weeks I’ve been wearing two pants bc it’s so cold where I live. My face gets very dry too so the key is to always moisturize before I apply make-up.
Shelly says
Tap water in Boston is pretty gross (compared to NYC where I came from, anyway), so Brita filters all the way! 🙂
tatiana tonnochy says
I love to drink water i dont mind brand because i feel they are natural and taste the same. Water is plain so i dont think it slneeds to be sweetned or anything its good like that.
Emily says
Luv ya xx
rosie says
Thanks for the giveaway-good luck with the Brita bottle! 😉

I like Dasani bottled water the best.
Joanna says
I recently tried a sample of the Josie Maran Argan Oil and I am really loving it. It really lives up to it’s expectations. My face stays hydrated all day. It’s a product I am definitely purchasing in the future.
Mary W says
I am glad you wrote about how difficult it is to squeeze the Brita bottle. I have trouble opening round door knobs so this water bottle would definitely be out of the question for me! Thanks for helping me save money.
Avery says
Pretty much the only thing to like (ok that’s being a bit unfair) about where I live is that we have some truly great tap water, so I drink it all the time!
Vanessa says
I’ve had my Starbucks, stainless steel water bottle for over 3 years now and I carry that bad boy around everywhere. My husband has purchased other ones for me but they’re just not the same. Anyway, good luck with your mission impossible water bottle-

Have you tried Maybelline’s Sunbaked Neutrals palette

This could be mine!
Sala says
I love my SIGG water bottle 🙂
ann says
TOOK THE SAT TODAY ! (:
Denise says
I used to have pretty good tap water, then I moved and ended up with the worst tasting water ever. I only buy bottled water to take with me when I’m on the go. At home I use a filtered water jug.
Melli says
I want to paint my nails. 😛 But don’t know what color.

Jia says
When I get tird of drinking water all day I switch to Green Tea. Both are good for you.
Melissa says
I bought NARS Outremer (finally) this week. I’ve wanted it since I saw your review/tutorial. Can’t wait to play with it!
auroragyps says
I’m too cheap to buy bottled water, so I drink what comes from the tap. I’m lucky though, because it tastes fine.
Erica says
I tend to drink tea instead of water.
Shelley says
Tap water here is okay. Never tried a Brita bottle before.

We have a filter on our tap at work which is tasty and I can’t live without my LifeFactory bottles!!! http://www.lifefactory.com/
Lili says
I never feel as hydrated as I know I should be:(
Zharlynne says
LoL todays post is hilarious! I used Brita all the time when I lived in Berkeley. Thankfully my house in LA has a water filtration system so I don’t have to use Brita or buy bottled water anymore =)
Erin says
Our tap water is disgusting. I buy my 24 pack of water for $4 each week.
Molly SC says
I don’t mind the tap water in Boston, but I MUST have ice in it! 🙂
Caitlin says
I am so perpetually dehydrated (as is completely evident by my super dry skin). I recently bought a bunch of new water bottles and have left them in different places (by my bed, in my purse, at the office, in the living room) so that I will remember to drink more water. Its actually working as I’ve upped my water intake by a couple bottles of water a day!
Melina says
The air is dry and cold where I live and to help my skin I have been using my Clinique Tinted Moisturizer every day. I love the product.
aubrie says
The tap water is fine here, but I still don’t drink enough. I need to be better!
Chelsea @The Nail Network says
I have a Brita water bottle too and mine is not nearly that hard to squeeze lol! I’ve been trying to drink mainly water lately and cut out soda and stuff. I love my Brita bottle because it makes the crappy water at my college taste good!
Maggie says
I definitely don’t drink enough water 😛 The tap water in the bay area is just dandy, though!
Lynn says
I know I wasn’t drinking enough water before, but it’s one of my new year’s resolutions, so now I am!
supriya says
I don’t drink enough water, but just started drinking hot water with lemon and I love it!
Christy Clark says
I drink iced tea….does that count. I used to drink only water, even as a kid.
Kat says
One of life’s small pleasures is drinking water directly from the tap – no glass, just my hands! Might seem disgusting to other people, but as long you wash your hands, it’s fine 😀
Janet says
I so need to drink more water but today I have an excuse. Wine tasting in Temecula with a big group if friends. So excited! 🙂
maria says
It’s snowing today!
Kim Pincombe Cole says
Fiji water is my fav bottled water. I know it’s probably not any better than tap water, but I still buy into the hype, lol!
I live in Indianapolis and this town is going Super Bowl crazy (we are hosting this year). Hard not to get into the spirit, even if your not a football fan. The parties, celebrities, and events are crazy fun – a nice break from the mid-winter blahs!!!
Kim Pincombe Cole says
Following you on twitter and tweeted about giveaway for an addtl entry!

lazy weekends, breakfast burritos, caramel flavored tea — these are a few of my favorite things. 🙂
jennifer s says
Omg thank you karen. I was having such a bad morning and you made me laugh just imagining your frustration. Have a good one….
The Blossom Shed Beauty Blog says
I love Fiji water, though it might just be the pretty bottle that makes me think it tastes better. I used to train with a coach who had never seen the square bottles before, and always though it was gin – she’s say, why is there a gin bottle in your bag all the time? And I DO like gin, just not for sporting events:)
Kelly says
I dislike tap water so much. Water bottles ftw!
Kim says
I use a Brita filter for my water!

Mellisa S. says
SmartWater is my favorite! I try to at least drink one big bottle a day! <3
Kassie says
I normally don’t like waterproof makeup because it is hard to take off at the end of the day. I usually only wear it when I am swimming.
Lisa Brooks says
Most days, I think I drink enough water. I have a Tervis Tumbler that I keep at my desk. I love really cold water, so my Tervis keeps it cold.
erinn says
Love bottles like that. Makes me feel a little snazzy when I break it out and no one else has one so you get to tell them all about it 🙂 in a nice way
Jasmine says
I don’t drink enough water.. shame on me!
Cassie says
I need to refresh my beauty stash.
DalaLuz says
I never drink bottled water any more when I am home. The tap water is very good over here, so I just fill my own (reusable) water bottles. When I am in the States the tap water never tastes that good, so I usually buy one of those really big jugs of the cheapest available spring water to make coffee etc and refill my water bottles.
Diana J says
We learned in our Bio class that tap water is not only perfectly safe to drink but it may also be better for you than bottled water because it contains chemicals that help strengthen your tooth enamel.. I however prefer the taste of bottled water 🙂 my favorite is Voss water especially when I can find the glass bottles 🙂

Will be heading down to the mall to get the taylor swift perfume tmr morning!!!! 😀

Caity says
I feel like I drink enough water, thanks to my Brita pitcher.

Jennifer says
I use tap water!
melissa says

Jessica says
I’m an absolute water fanatic. I think I drink more than enough 🙂
@inked_barbie says
If I have lemon in my water I drink a ridiculous amount, but plain I slack on. what I dont slack on, though, is my MAC studio fix.
Claire says
tap water all the way, though i do enjoy using it with my sodastream to spice things up a bit
Ede Boman says
Loving the Brita water bottle that has the fiter in it. I stopped buying bottled water cause the bottle makes my tap water taste so much better.
isil says
I don’t drink bottled water, because of the damage of the plastic.I prefer to drink filtered water.
Catherine says
I drink more than enough water; about 1.5L a day!
Carol says
I can’t drink water straight from the tap. It tastes like chlorine. I do drink tap water but I have to run it through a Brita filter first.
Vibhuti says
Somedays I drink a lot of water and then there are days where the first sip of water is with dinner. I need to make a habit out of sipping water through out the day!

I drink a ton of water, probably 3 gallons a day. I am always thirsty, I think because I work out every day. I do like the taste of tap water where I live.
Caitlin says
Tea is good. Very good. But so is hot cocoa. I love my Keurig!!!

My favorite water is Fiji water. I mean water is water but it so funny how we each have our choice of what’s better. Lol
Faith says
I’ve been trying to make myself drink water lately, but I HATE the taste. All kinds!
Nika says
My favorite drink will always be water. May be boring for some but I seriously love it! I ALWAYS get bottled water though when I’m out.
Harpa says
I make a delicious gingerwater every weekend and drink throughout the week, mix it 50/50 with tapwater. And I only use tapwater because we have the cleanest water on earth here i Iceland:)
Gingerwater (gingerjuice?)
100 gr fresh ginger, grated.
2 handfuls of fresh mintleaves, just toss the hole thing in there, sticks and everything.
juice from two lemons
juice from two oranges
1/2 cup of raw sugar.
put everything in að big pot, pour in 1.3 liters of water. Bring to a boil and let it simmer for an hour.
Then you filter it and add 2 more liters of water, bring to a boil and turn off the heat. Let it cool and then you can bottle it.
You can either drink it straight up,1 glass in the morning before breakfast or like me, mix it with water and drink through the day.
You will be peeing all day long!
Kelsey says
Do you feel like you drink enough water?
Yes. You don’t really need to drink eight glasses of water a day. Most people don’t think to take into account the amount of water in other things that they drink and consume on a daily basis like juices, soups, coffee, tea, etc. Those all count towards your daily water requirement!
What’s your favorite brand of bottled water?
I don;t have a preference, they all taste the same to me.
Do you like the taste of the tap water where you live?
I hate the taste of tap water, no matter where it is. I never drink it. I have a Brita pitcher that I keep in the fridge and use to fill reusable water bottles.
What’s your favorite waterproof makeup product?
Mascara.
Which makeup and beauty products did you use/wear the most this week?
I haven’t worn any makeup this week, so I’d have to say that the beauty product I used the most was my face wash (which I use every day).
Jane says
I definitely do not drink enough water.
Darnell says
I prefer bottled water I can usually tell if it’s tap water but love water with lemon or cucumber it makes it much more refreshing
Mindy M. says
Fiji is hands down the best water! And I never drink enough.
Luci says
I am terrible about drinking enough water in the winter months. Trying to add some decaf green tea to help keep me warm. 😉

Alison says
I know I should drink more water!
Kendall says
… why isn’t it summer yet? I got the most gorgeous Cole Haan strappy sandals right at the end of the summer (70% off! So awesome!) and I never get to wear them because of the rain.
Emily says
Top of the afternoon to you, Karen! I have come to the realization that I have a serious makeup addiction. I just bought Urban Decay’s 15th anniversary palette off of Ebay for $75 big ones, and I am already planning my next purchase. I can’t say that I want to be saved.
Kate says
I always drink tap water, ours tastes pretty good but I’m a fan of the Brita filters too. I looove cold water though so I always have a jug in the fridge 🙂
Brittany says
Just purchased the Naked 2 palette for myself for my birthday yesterday and I am in loooooove!
Susan P. says
I have a Brita water filter bottle and at first it leaked but then never leaked again. (?) Maybe the seal had to get wet or something. I’ve changed the filter once and after you get used to it, it’s a great water bottle.
Randi RooBee says
I like dasani pure life water.

I got lazy refilling my reusable bottles and switched back to water bottles. Whoo, no more washing!

evian. I never drink tap water.

I literally woke up 8 times last night to go to the bathroom because I drink so much water.

I almost never drink bottled water. The tap water tastes nice here~

I don’t drink nearly enough the recommended amount. I know it’s bad, but i get sick if I drink too much.
Vanessa says
Love a good bottle of Arrowhead spring water!
Inday says
I used to drink tons of water.. until I started drinking soda again 🙁 Now I have to remind myself to drink at least 32oz a day (2 16oz bottles, usually Kirkland)
Michaela says
Sorry to hear that re: the Brita bottle, I wanted to get one but if it’s that exhausting, maybe I’ll pass.
Hillary says
I drink a ton of water – and the tap water here is better than anywhere else I’ve been. Yay Pacific NW!
Elise says
I really like the figi water, however I mostly buy gallons of steam distilled water. I don’t like the tap water here, it tastes like chemicals!
Michelle says
I drink water all day sometimes and then the next not enough! I need to be consistent. Water is good for everything.
Myra says
I love water period, but I’m really grateful that we cn drink the water from our taps since you can’t do that in a lot of other countries.
Jane says
I’m addicted to sparkling water and seltzer
Tiffany says
I like the taste of tap water… plastic bottles aren’t so good for the environment :\
Tina says
Ive been really digging MAC Rubenesque Paint Pot. Ive been wearing it regularly this week, alone on the lid with some mascara and Teddy eyeliner
Sue C. says
I’ve been trying to drink less soda and more water. I like Evian and Fiji water – they’re just so smooth (tasteless?) to drink that I drink more water when I drink those brands. I feel a bit bad about the environmental impact of bottled water but I always recycle the bottles.
Sam says
I could definitely afford to drink more water everyday
Annette says
I drink at least ten glasses of water a day, lol. I used to hate drinking water, but I started forcing myself to drink 8 glasses when I started losing weight and now my body craves it. I always have a refillable bottle with me. I do like the taste of the tap water where we live, but we also have a brita pitcher that we keep in the fridge and I like the taste of that water too.
Karen C says
Cle de peau concealer is my holy grail concealer.
Daniella says
At home, water from the Brita refillable bottle, at work, filtered tap water. If I am ‘splurging’, Fidgi water so good for you because of the silica. I never drink enough water..I try and I always come up short of my goal. Gotta keep trying!
I have serious hair streak envy, your fire engine red streaks are soo pretty!
NeenaJ says
I drink filtered tap water at home. But the water at my office is awful. I don’t know if they ever change the filters. So I just got the Brita pitcher to keep at my desk.
Katherine says
I never drink bottled water (I’m a pretty committed environmentalist), but I filter the tap water where I live so it tastes a little better. The water where I grew up (New Hampshire) is much tastier.
Ellen says
I don’t like pop or juice so I pretty much only drink water, although I could drink more.
and is it just me or does anyone else find that sometimes when they’re hungry and nothing sounds good that really you’re just thirsty? my body needs to communicate better.
Kim Law (kimmydadiva) says
let me the lucky winner… Have a great day!
Dominique D says
I definitely do not drink enough water. Even though I know I should, I never have the desire to even when I’m thirsty.
Tiffanie says
I encourage myself to drink a ton of water everyday by buying super cute water bottles. It just makes it less of a “chore.”
Celia Rodriguez says
Thanks for the giveaway =) I don’t drink enough water but need to. I did try grape flavored zero calorie water & enjoyed that so there’s hope! Have a great day!
Melissa says
Good for you about drinking more water and bringing around a water bottle!! I’m hoping to do the same thing, cuz i JUST purchased a new water bottle for myself to bring along. Now if only I just wash the darn thing so I can start using it…..
Aimee says
I try to avoid bottled water in favor of tap, but I do love the chilled water coolers in my office.
April says
We have a filter on our refrigerator so that’s where I drink my water from the most. I don’t like drinking bottled water if I don’t have to, I think it’s wasteful. I love water!
Libby says
Don’t trip tap water as it sometimes can’t be trusted but I do own a nifty water bottle with a filter in it (called a bobble, not the brita one!) and I use that often since I feel like one of the most wasteful things to do is buy water, especially since I live in a city that charges $2 on average per bottle :\
Pansy says
Water is my best friend.
Y. says
Urban decay 24/7 eye pencils!!!
Rie Maeda says
i love water! and green tea 🙂
Ashleigh Walls says
I would love to get some new makeup! Hoping I win.

I drink bottled water because the tap where I live is not to my liking. I just wish I drank more water than i do, but i hate having to go to the bathroom constantly. LOL
nekosan says
I don’t drink bottled water; i think the whole thing is (in general) ridiculous. I do have a Brita filter, though.
Rosie says
water makes everything better. i notice when i drink more water my skin looks better and my clothes fit better and things move better…. i bring a big glass to my desk at work and need to remember to drink it and refill it a few times a day
Vanda says
Poland Spring’a bottled water is the only water I drink.
sylvia says
I don’t drink enough water but I do understand your pain with the Brita. I subscribe to your blog and I love Sephora. 🙂
Cassidey says
I definitely don’t drink enough water, but I am trying to set a goal and drink some everyday.
steph b says
I try not to drink bottled water because of the environmental impact. I’m trying to get into the habit of carrying my small Camelback bottle with me. Only one I’ve found that doesn’t spill or drip.
Emma says
I broke my britta pitcher and my husband went out and bought us a new one that’s purple, my favorite color. That’s love!
Amber says
Lately I’ve been drinking Vitamin Water in addition to my regular water (I haven’t had any soda in 7 years) and I gotta say, even though it’s just flavored/sweetened water, it’s so yummy when you want something sweet to drink without added carbonation or caffeine. Yummo!
Alanna says
I bought this 20 oz. reusable plastic cup with a screw on lid and straw – similar to the one Starbucks sells – and I always make sure to fill it up at least twice a day. My skin is looking much better now!
yesenia says
Today, I am having an awesome orange and mango smoothie. Home made 🙂
Terri B says
concealer, lots of concealer, this week. nursing school is kicking me in the behind. dark circles be gone!
Marian says
I never drink plain water but you can always find me with a tall glass of iced tea with lemon and splenda please.
Kylee says
i feel like i do but im guessing i dont becuz i always have symptoms of dehydration
Suzi says
I love my Intak water bottle from target! It let’s you keep track of how many bottles you drink.
monika says
We do have a good tap water………..and I like to put couple of drops of apple cider vinegar. It is supposedly good for metabolism and I like that soury taste too.
sweeks1980 says
Luckily, the tap water where I live is pretty good. I only buy bottled water when I forget to bring my own reusable bottle to fill up from the water fountain.
My favorite waterproof makeup is tubular mascara, but I’m a quest to find the best brand for me. I’ve tried several brands so far (Clinique, Blinc, L’Oreal), and I just ordered Fairydrops Scandal Queen.
Kristi says
I probably don’t drink enough water. I don’t like the flavor of tap water. I have found a few flavors of Crystal Light that I like so I have those in my desk @ work. I’m not a fan of bottled water due to the environmental impact.
☆Lola A♠★ says
I know I don’t drink enough water!!!! I really need to make myself drink more.
Rae // theNotice says
I try not to drink bottled water if I can help it! Edmonton’s water system has stricter regulations than all of our water brands, so. :s
Hohe says
I do like the taste of tap water here. I’ve been to other states where I didn’t like the taste as much.
alison c says
my new cat looks like tabs alkfjakjwalkjsfasf

I don’t drink bottled water, I instead use my Brita filter 🙂

onegreatsmile says
Your arms may be killing you but i bet i win that contest!!! I broke my arm a few days ago so bad that i had to have surgery—-a plate and ten pins!!!!!!!!!!!! Do they sell housecalls at sephora?? lol at least it was my left arm.
kelly m says
i drink lacroix water
Dominique says
Luckily I like the water that comes out of my tap. But at work we use a Brita pitcher. I’ve had one of those Brita water bottles and it can be a struggle to get the water to flow through that filter. Off to get my brows threaded…happy weekend all. 🙂
Sophie says
Love Dasani water, and I love Almay mascara–it’s the only one that doesn’t make my baby blues water and doesn’t clump (much).
Kate says
I drink any water that’s available! We have awesome well water out here…very refreshing and tasty, so much so that I actually don’t care for most bottled water any more.
Ashley Marie says
Bottled water just tastes better to me so that’s what I reach for…but the first few glasses of freshly Brita filtered water is amazing!
Katrina says
I’ve got a bottle of Ice Mountain in front of me now;)
Patricia Cortez says
i’m loving L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows

I live in Chicago and the tap water is just fine!
Alisha says
bottled water gets expensive especially as a student.
since i’m dorming, i just get water from water fountain and use my water boiler to drink tea!
Mandy says
We are very lucky to have drinking water from a tap in America. I travel to many countries where this commodity is unavailable.
Bee says
The tap water here in Missouri tastes like dirt and I can’t way to get back to Virginia well water!
Amanda G says
Tap water all the way! And I live in L.A., supposedly home of some of the country’s ugliest tap water! (The sad truth is that most bottled water is just tap water anyway, so why spend the extra money?)
Erin says
Tap water + Brita pitcher. Why are their filter replacements so expensive?
Jessica says
I actually just saw the brita water bottle at loblaws in canada! It was 10$ and the refill filter was 8$ I didn’t think it was worth it!! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Cass says
This may seem strange, but I do not like the flavor of most waters. We had an artesian well in our house when I was child and the water was really good that came out of it. I have never liked tap water since we moved from that house. We currently use a PUR water filter on the faucet and then a Brita water filter in a pitcher.
My favorite bottled water is Fiji. HATE Dansani!
Cynthia says
My tap water taste great.
Erin says
I definitely do not drink enough water! Always mean to, but never do.

I make my own Lavender Lemonade using filtered water, sugar, fresh lemon juice and lavender flowers.

I’m good with filtered tap water and I’ve been using under eye concealer like crazy this week bc of lack of sleep!
Laura says
i am trying to drink more water. Only bottled water though, I hate it from the tap.
Lucas says
Arrowhead is the way to go! There is nothing worse than Dasani crap water, and I always do my best to stay from tap water, but hey, if you gotta drink you gotta drink.
kalcedon says
I’m loving my new Essence Caring lipblam in Dreaming, this has been my most used or most loved product this week :).
rebeca says
My favorite water brand is Nestle Pure Life. I don’t know if anyone else does this but i drink my water with a straw. Is that weird ?
MMM says
one sephora gift card for me =)
Grace says
Before I had a baby I can drink any brand/type/temperature of water. But when I was pregnant up until now I cannot drink Arrowhead water or room temperature water.
Mimi Nguyen says
i need to be a better friend, overall a better person.
Liene says
Tap water where I live is excellent (it’s in Riga, Latvia) and I actually do not buy bottled water but carry around some with me in stainless steel bottle, however I drink enough water only in summer, but during winter I drink only different teas (mainly green) for weeks (around 3…4 liters per day).
Catherine says
Only the orchids get bottled water…
Miso says
For a daily detox I drink one glass of warm water with the juice of one lemon , some cayenne pepper, ginger powder and cinnamon and drink on an empty stomach
Liz says
I drink TONS of water every day. It’s a habit I developed when I was in the military stationed in the tropics. I really hate getting thirsty and dehydrated because it ends with me feeling tired and headachy. Our tapwater here tastses worse than anywhere I’ve lived by FAR, so I’ve become a bit of a connoisseur of bottled water. Smartwater and Glaceau are my faves, but I’m also cheap, so I go with my third favorite most of the time: Target brand! TYes, really like Market Pantry water. The price is right too.
Mai says
Just finished midterm exams and looking forward to a super relaxing weekend with no obligations! Lots of reading and movie-watching to catch up on!
Becky says
Love the giveaway even though I NEVER win
Mylie says
I’m always drinking tap water!!

maria says
Karen, thank you for the chance to win a giftcard. Dreaming about what I’d pick.
My favorite water is Smart Water.
Amber says
Oh my gosh I sooo do not drink enough water. I don’t know why I struggle with it so much. It’s like this extra chore I have to do and I just hate doing it.
Cindy G says
The tap water here in SF is supposed to be one the best, but I still use my Brita filter just in case. But if need be I can still drink water from the tap.
Beale Street Chick says
Memphis has amazing tap water! 🙂
April says
I love my Camelbak! It’s insulated and has one pink layer and one sky blue layer, so the combination of colors makes it look purple. So pretty!
Amy says
I do not drink nearly enough water! I used to be really awesome about it, and I pretty much only drank water. Now…sweet tea is my downfall. Curse you McDonald’s, and your tasty tea!
Tiffany T. says
I like using the pur water filters
Amy says
I drink tap water and refill my water bottle!!
Quinctia says
I need to drink more water. 🙁 I’m pretty good at keeping up with milk drinking, but most my other liquid intake ends up being diet soft drinks.
Tiffany says
I want to try edward bess makeup and now that it’s on sephora my wallet is screwed!
LAURA says
I love designing my own Sigg water bottles with custom pictures of my family and friends! It makes me smile every time I take a sip of water.
Yukari says
Hi Karen!
I finally bought a Revlon Lip Butter this week and I am loving it! It’s my first lipstick (and a bright one at that, i got Lollipop) but it’s really wearable. Have you tried them out? I can’t remember if you did a review on them. I want to pick up Peach Parfait and Cherry Tart now too!
ps says
Figi water, but I mostly drink tea. Actually a lot of tea. Have a great weekend everyone.
Michelle says
I drink a ton of water! I always carry a water bottle with me, filled from my Pur Filter.
Maudy Mac says
I’ve been using my clarisonic for a week now and I am loving it!
TVO says
Yay, giveaway! (:
I actually prefer purified tap water to any bottled waters…they just taste too artificial to me, for some reason. (:
Juliet says
I lived in L.A. for nearly ten years, and the tap water there smells like pool water so I got used to drinking bottled water. It was also easier to carry around my college campus.
Belladatura says
I like water, but don’t drink enough. I do drink a ton of iced tea though. I tell myself that counts.
Lindsay says
I am in love with Hard Candy lash ink. It is an ultra waterproof mascara that stains my lashs for day!
Susan G says
Lately, I have felt like it’s pure torture to drink water. I need someone to hold a gun to my head (ha), but in the summertime, it’s my favorite drink in the world. I’m a sucker for expensive brands like Fiji, but I also have a Sigg water bottle that I fill from the Brita pitcher.
Ann says
This will sound very “makeup dork”, but I LOVE trying new things with makeup and skincare. I don’t normally shop at Sephora, but I would love to give it a try. This GC would be a good start.
Thanks!
Christine says
I drink a ton of water a day. Poland Springs.
Anastasia says
Love Sephora! Love water!
Brandy says
I don’t think I drink enough water I know lol and I don’t why like sometimes I get addicted to then I just stop and I really have no idea why

I am painting my hallway this weekend 😀

Piscolabis says
Im sooo sleepy todayyy ZzzzZZz..z

I like the taste of my tap water. It doesn’t help that bottled water is so expensive!
Nicole says
I love Dasani water, but I will drink filtered water from my sink at home. It just makes sense.
Judy says
SO COLD! buying new sweaters online now hahaha
Jennifer says
You’re so funny, Karen! I was so interested in getting the Brita water bottle since I’m all for filtered water, etc. Drinking tap water just makes me uneasy… I’m glad you shared your experience with the bottle! I know that I’m not going to buy it! Lol, it seems pointless to get a water bottle where you have to squeeze with force in order to drink water! Hope you’re having a nice weekend!
Anne says
I totally don’t drink enough water. I do drink lots of Coke Zero, tho.
Cyn Uehara says
Hi there,
Love your give aways, thanks. I drink water all the time and try not to get bottled water due to environmental reasons.
Thanks again,
Cyn in HI
Ginelle says
Can’t wait to see Sebastian Maniscalco tonight!
Krista says
I love my filtered tap water! The bottled stuff always tastes too metallic to me.
Sarah says
I have a cat, Simi, who looks exactly like your cat, Tabs! She follows me around everywhere, and I often indulge her with some yogurt (random food to indulge a cat with, I know). Anyway, I’m sure my kitty would like some new mascara for her whiskers (and by kitty, I mean me. Haha!).
Aurelie says
I drink water for two reasons. One – I love drinking water. If I don’t drink lots I always feel sick & Two – lily (my cat) loves to catch the drops when I drip water out of a glass. Soo cute! >.<
sammy says
tell t-money to squeeze your brita bottle for you. that will do the trick!
Leslie says
Have you ever washed your hair with Evian in stead of shower-tap water? I’m intrigued but it seems waaaay too luxurious for my college budget.
Geri says
I just recently started drinking water a lot because of my boyfriend. He drinks it like it’s going out of style and just for the heck of it I’ve been trying to keep up with him.
Jamila says
i definitely dont drink enough water! i dont like the taste of plain water so i put tons of ice in it, preferably lemon (lemon makes me drink tons of water!), and try to make a whole jug of iced tea. i need flavor without calories or sweetness to drink water!
Maple says
I definitely don’t drink enough water, but I can’t bring myself to drink a full 8 cups a day!
Stephanie Y says
I drink way too much diet soda and not enough water.
Mush says
I load up on jugs of Spring Water from Walmart. I can taste all the chemicals in tap water which is unpleasant.
Heidi Warfield says
I need to drink more water. I really am not a fan of just plain, unless it is SUPER COLD. However, I will drink the flavored ones from Walmart (Key Lime tricks my brain into thinking I’m drinking Sprite) and ICE brand (especially the pink grapefruit flavor). That will be one of my things for this year….get away from the soda and get back to the water. 🙂
Jasmine says
Living in Canada with the cold dry winters water is a must! I like to drink 2 liters a day but that doesn’t always happen. I use my Clinique face cream everyday, it has saved my dry skin this season!
Maureen says
I have tried to incorporate more water into my diet because in the Summer of 2010 I had three kidney stone surgeries in an 8 week period. The problem is that water can be a bit bland so I will put a bit of real lemon in the water to kick it up just a bit for taste.
Grace says
Just found out im pregnant! So excited it feeling so sick! Maybe a trip to sephora will help!
Denniesha says
I love Clearfruit water it is the best flavored water ever! Their are so many good flavores my favorite is the watermelon kiwi! I hate plain water its just blah!
gia says
went dancing last night!! LOVE TO DANCE!
Stephanie R says
Congrats, Grace! I just found out this morning that I’m 5 weeks pregnant!
Julia says
I am looking into buying an Urban Decay Naked Palette, but I am not sure which one!
Julia D says
I tried smartwater yesterday for the first time…it didn’t taste any different
Ashley says
I love fiji water, although I have been trying to cut down on how often I buy bottled water. I bought one of those Brita water filters and a cute water bottle. Its nice to have water at hand, especially if you have ever experienced the pain of sitting in class watching someone drink water while you are dying of thirst. They quickly become the most enviable person on the planet. Now I make sure I always have some on hand while i’m out during the day. Thanks for the giveaway!!!
asia says
i love water i can drink a bottle every hour , no iM not creazy its better to drink soda .

Denise M says
I love Sephora- have my eyes on so much great stuff there

My new year’s resolution is to drink more water consistently! But…that has already been broken. Le sigh!

AAJ83 says
DEFINITELY need more water in my life…i don’t drink the required 8 glasses a day 🙁
Meena says
I have decided to drink water and get healthy this year(weight loss hmm). Water is really good for health and helps with weight loss.
Would you be able to help me with this dilemna. All pink blushes turn coral red on me. I love pink blushes, am not able to wear them though. I am NC35-37 in coloring.
Thanks
Meena.
Tran says
I don’t drink nearly enough water as I should especially during the dry season and the lack of sleep I get
Jess says
Fun Fact: evian backwards spells “naive”! le gasp!
http://www.evian.com/en_US
Jen says
I don’t drink from plastic disposable water bottles anymore. I only drink filtered water in a reusable water bottle.
Pamela Angelo says
I stopped drinking soda about a year ago and started drinking only bottled water. My skin looks better and I feel better. My favorite bottled water is Fiji – I think mainly because it’s got a unique square bottle versus the typical round bottle. Weird I know, but it works for me! We have well water and it taste nasty, so I prefer bottled water.
Lucy says
I don’t drink water much. My tap water is fine as long as it’s super cold. I love it during the Winter. I drink Wyler’s or Crystal Light Peach Iced tea. It’s sugar free & delicious. That’s how I get all my water in. Thanks.
LauraA says
The tap water where I live actually isn’t bad, and it’s very consistent from season to season. When we lived on the east coast, the particular ‘burb we lived in actually switched its source of water twice every year, which also wreaked havoc on my skin. So I’m pretty happy with the consistency at our place.
Thanks for another great giveaway opportunity, Karen!
Jennifer says
I’m really finding that 1 cup of water before a meal does wonders in making sure I dont overeat! Yay to water!!
lauren says
Glory Glory Man united!!
Debbie R says
The tap water where I live is good. I love water especially if it is COLD. When I drink a cold drink I really like it to be cold, even milk. If it isn’t I add ice.
Ceci says
I don’t drink bottled water because it’s mostly a ripoff. I aim to drink 8-11 glasses of water a day.
Cyra says
I just love using my camelbak for water 🙂
Amanda says
I drank a lot of water for about 2 weeks and my face cleared up so much…but unfortunately soda just keeps calling my name.
Xochil says
I definitely don’t drink enough water!! Need to get on that ASAP!

I can’t wait to try the hourglass foundation. I hope I can find a color match
tabby says
I’m so cold that my chill bumps have chill bumps.
Melodyy says
I try to get enough water throughout the day, but I just feel like I don’t get enough- I love Smartwater though. it’s delish. I feel like arrowhead and kirkland water have something in them to taste.. fake? lol (:
Phoebe says
As long as it’s spring water I don’t care what brand it is. It TASTE different I don’t care what others say! Lol
Esther says
I need to drink more water!
Diana says
Just watched the 500 Days of Summer. It’s such a bittersweet movie.

i tend to drink lots of water. i work, i have a 32 oz jug i refill like 3 times and at home, we have a metal Contigo which gets refilled numerous times during the night! so…. yeah. lol
Lisa says
I want to talk about Sephora. I go there ALL the time but yesterday I sat down and had my first mini makeover. It was so much fun! I ended up buying the Laura Mercier foundation (oil free) and I think I really like it. Of couse I bought other things that I picked out….Kat Von D lip stain, yummy and Too Faced lipstick. They were so nice and friendly there…….. it was a good ending after a busy day at work. A Sephora gift card is a fabulous contest. Thanks! Enjoy your blog every day.
Cindy Lartigue says
Hi Karen! I also purchased a Brita bottle a few months ago but every single time I use it, I end up wearing more water than actually drinking it. I continually check to make sure that I close it correctly but it never fails (or in this case, it never works!). I am now considering the Brita one that you add to your faucet – surely I can’t screw that up……..?!
victoria says
I’ve always liked drinking tap water where I live but lately has’nt been tasting really well lol but I run it a little longer 🙂
Natalie says
It is just way too hot in Australia.. Wish I were somewhere cooler!

I went to see a string quartet in San Francisco today with my dad – I was fully prepared to take a long nap in my chair, but you know what? It was lovely! I’m glad I went.
ashleigh says
I only drink water and tea lol.
Gans says
I drink about 48 ounces of water. I think that’s enough?
Jenny says
I think bottled water is kind of a scam, haha. The tap water in my area is wonderful. I suppose people with less-than-great tasting tap water may be justified in buying bottled water, but I think it’d be easier to just buy a filter! That’s what most bottled water is anyway. It’s also less regulated that city water supplies, so it’s more likely to have contaminants. That’s something most people don’t know. Anyway, hope you’re having a great Saturday! I’ve got to get back to studyin! =)
Elizabeth W. says
Remembering to drink more water is always on my to-do list. It shouldn’t be that hard to remember, but it is!
Carissa says
i know that i don’t drink enough water!

I use a brita pitcher to filter tap water. Seems fine to me.
Kirsty p says
I dont like the taste of the water where I live and its very metally and has a bad PH, I prefer to drink evian water 🙂
Jody says
I drink a lot of water. I always drink bottled or filtered water. Never straight from the tap.
Cindy says
I always try to make myself drink as much water as possible. My fave brand would be evian. Tap water in NYC is a no-no.
Delaney says
I dont drink enough water
Lori says
My tap water is ok but I LOVE the little mini bottles from Ozarka, makes it easy to get my daily water intake in.
Sydney says
I should drink a lot more water. I love my Brita filter and I love Fiji bottled water. I hate drinking tap water!
sienna says
i like the taste of my tap water. trying to drink more water and cut back on coffee…… thanks doing these giveaways! crossing fingers for a win! i’m really, really wanting to win so i can use it to buy a couple of the tarte clay blushes!
MizJawnson says
It’s so nice of you to do these giveaways!
I thought I was getting enough water until I started writing it down. I was really only getting about half of what I needed! Started drinking more this week so hopefully I’ll start a good habit!
Saddy says
Saw War Horse yesterday – it was meh. Not oscar-worthy and definitely not up to the standards of Spielberg. Plus, there was so little Tom Hiddleston!!!
Veronica says
I was excited to get my hands on MAC’s mineralized skinfinish in Redhead today, but they were all sold out 🙁
Rach says
i really dont drink enough water! and its supposed to be really good for your skin!
Sara P. says
I gave up bottled water a couple years ago. Much better for the environment and my wallet!
Kate & Zena says
My favorite brand of bottled water is SmartWater for exercise and for choir; Ice Mountain or the Nestle water (don’t remember the name) for everyday drinking. I use SmartWater for choir because choir is a lot like exercise! Lots of breath support and posture! If I don’t, I feel sluggish!
Halifax says
I think I’m blessed drinking water out of the tap, but gotta remind myself to drink enough water
Liz! says
I love water! It’s weird but I totally do have brand preferences, I swear they taste different! Love Fiji, Aquafina is soooo gross though! Lol
Betony says
I finally get to go out! I’m going to have a margarita! Yum!
Joyce says
I’m going through a civil suit right now and I can’t believe the amount of time and work I’m dedicating. =/
Jenn Staz says
I love water. You’ll hardly ever see me without my Sigg bottle!
Chelsea says
I drink a ton of water, I’m ALWAYS thirsty. I don’t love our tap water, but it’s pretty good if it’s been refrigerated, and better than other places I’ve lived! I grew up in a rural area drinking well water, so a lot of water here tends to smell and taste like pool water for me, haha. SmartWater is probably my favorite bottled water.
I’ve been wearing a lot of L’Oreal Colour Riche balms this week, I love them! I’ve also been using DiorShow mascara, which is really good except that it’s rose scented, which I find kind of weird.
BooBooNinja says
I have to take my grad photos tomorrow. Eek! What makeup will I do? I wish I weren’t inept.

Francesca’s is my favorite store!

I heard drinking a lot of water helps reduce acne….has anyone heard of that? I have acne and need to try to drink more if it will help stop my breakouts!
🙂
Hannah says
I try not to buy bottled water, so I love my Clear2Go water bottle – it has a filter inside 🙂
Chloe says
I love to drink water, filtered by good ol’ Brita.

I want to drink more water, but Diet Dr. Pepper is soooo tasty!
Maria says
I dont drink enough water…..I drink at least 4 glasses per day…but its supposed to be 8 and I rarely get to that goal. Although I have to say that having some crystal light helps with that. ^_^
jenn s. says
I really like Smartwater brand water. No, I don’t feel smarter when I drink it, LOL, but it almost tastes like it’s infused with more oxygen. I don’t know, just a very fresh, clean, airy taste to me. Like I’m drinking from a remote mountain stream (minus the bacteria and parasites!)
Kristine Ayala says
I definitely need to drink more water!
Safora says
I love waterr(:
Dovey says
I love lush baths!
Rads says
Oh..I have the pitcher version of Brita….easiest to use 😀

My new year resolution was to drink enough, as I never drink almost. So far it works great for me, hope I will adjust naturally so no reminders needed
Susan says
Drink way to much diet soda but am trying to convert! Love Sephora- been thinking I need. New fresh look, that is how I happened upon your blog!
vivian says
ever since i started drinking at least two bottles of water regularly my skin has changed for the better. it has cleared up significantly and it looks more radiant, not dull and sallow.
layla says
I knew I’d forgotten something! my water bottle. i usually have a bottle on my desk at work. seeing it all day makes me want to take a sip frequently.. so this way, i get enough water inside of me. unfortunately took the bottle home over the weekend to give it a clean and forgot it today at work! arrgh..
sillypooh101 says
When I was growing up, my mom’s solution to every beauty problem I had was to drink more water. If only I had taken her advice!
Melissa says
The best water I’ve ever had was from a ghost town called Bodie, near Mammoth. It came from an old looking fountain. But omg, the water was so crisp and clean. I think it was from a natural spring. The best I tell you!
Yaling says
😀 i like to boil my water. :\ no brita filter for me

Amandalee says
I drink lots of water, but always feel like I have to drink more b/c I drink coffee!
Christine says
Rather than buying sheer glosses, it’s better to just buy pigmented ones and dilute them with lip balm as needed.
Julie Park says
I def drink enough water bc that’s all I drink. Besides Coffee once in a while keke I love Dasani and Aquafina. Tastes so clean and fresh. I’m picky about the water I drink so I def refuse to drink TAP WATER! This giveaway is amazing. Good luck to all!
Mairyn says
Well, I must be very unsophisticated, because I don’t have a favourite brand for bottled water :O
I don’t drink as much water as a I should, but being summer here in Australia, I am drinking more than I normally do, at least.
Something to ponder: Evian (as in the brand) is ‘naive’ spelt backwards. Hmm.
Sharon says
Have a great week!
Giselle says
I drank 9 glasses of water today. Super proud of myself right now, not gonna lie 😀

Ahhh I hope I win!
So I’m loving Diorskin Forever, but your post about the Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow foundation has me SO excited! I can’t wait until February 15th to try it!
Also I think I’m obsessed with Hourglass lipsticks without having worn a single one yet. 🙂
Paula says
I’ve been thinking about trying one of the Bobble water filter bottles.
Aimey says
HAHA Sounds like an intense water bottle! Hopefully you won’t have man hands and biceps by the time you stop feeling sore. Or worse yet, have just one HUGEE bicep since I think most of us tend to drink from a water bottle using the same hand every time except certain situations haha
Speaking of water bottles, I saw the commercial for the water bottle with a built-in filter. I don’t know why, but it got me jazzed up as soon as I saw it, and I’ve only seen it once! I want onee!
Tammy says
I definitely don’t drink enough water. HATE it!
Kristina says
I always make sure I get my 64 oz of water in a day but usually try to aim for 96.
Jessica says
I definitely need to drink more H2O, especially since I’m working out again! My favorite is Crystal Gyser, I have a purple (only cuz they didnt have pink!) brita for my fridge. My favorite waterproof mascara is make up forever!! Need sephora!!!!!! 🙂
heidi says
I’m learning to knit. Its very addicting and much less expensive than makeup shopping. Oh who are we kidding. I’d rather be shopping
Hailey says
For waterproof makeup I like MUFE Aqua Creams!
Pam says
Since I don’t drink soda anymore, I have been drinking lots of Crystal Geyser Bubble Water. I like the lime flavor the best!
Olivia says
I really want a camelback water bottle!!
Jessica says
I like the water in Baton Rouge a lot, it’s very soft water and they put some chemicals in it to make it cleaner.
Mary Knoll Main says
I feel that I dont drink enough water :/ it seems like I do but I really don’t! My favorite brand of water would probably be aquafina! I can tell the difference between all waters haha! N I don’t like drinking tap water!
Hoshisma says
I love my dog and I love my heated blanket, but I’m NOT loving getting pushed out of my own bed by a 65 pound furbaby for the warmth that it provides. Should I just relinquish the blanket or look into getting a California King bed?
Katie says
I loooove Zephyrhills bottled water! But I love Sephora more! =)
XicanaQueen says
I Loooove water. I love that taste it has… Yes it has a taste for me 😀
Anna says
I drink so much water nowadays. It makes me feel so healthy!
Christina C says
I probably drink at least 15 glasses of water a day! Not very bladder friendly lol. My favorite water is most definitely Figi, best tasting and love the square shaped bottles, especially the smaller ones!
Amy C. says
I don’t mind most water as long as it’s cold and is flavored with Crystal Light.
linda says
I love sephora.
Teena Marie says
I definitely don’t drink as much water as I should. I did notice that I tend to drink more of it and faster when it’s with a straw (I had a fat liter bottle and was trying not to ruin my lipstick). Strange, much? 😛
Becca says
There is this skin test that can show you if youre dehydrated or not. Simply pinch the skin on the back of your hand and hold for 30 seconds. When you let go, it should spring back immediately. If you can actually see it slowly flattening, then thats too slow and you should drink more water!
Dilara says
I think Vancouver has the best tasting water in the world!
ola says
I love cold water with lemon juice.
peach_ says
I’m like a camel and definitely don’t drink enough pure water. I guzzle down green tea though, but I know, I know, it’s not the same thing. Drinking cold or even room temperature water during the winter is just so hard!
Jenn says
karen, you must try lemon mint cucumber water. absolutely crisp, very refreshing, simple to make!
Jennifer says
I drink tons of green tea! Yumm!
Merce says
Love your blog!!!! It’s only 2 weeks I am reading it and I think it’s a MUST!!!!!!!!!!
Sharon S says
I used to diligently drink 8 cups of water a day. Now I forget to count and just drink when thirsty. Sort of works, I guess.
Anna says
I don’t drink enough water
Eva says
I drink too much water!
tjarbet says
I don’t drink enough water, I actually don’t drink enough period…come to think of I should of made that my new years resolution… xp
Maureen says
I drink filtered water
Kenya says
I will use this for eye makeup and lip gloss.
Alycia says
I drink a ridiculous amount of water. Besides coffee and a glass of wine here or there, I not drink much else!!! I’ve wanted to try those Brita bottles but now I think not! Thanks for the heads up.
Sara MacDonald says
I just bought some delightful Hello Kitty lip gloss in Peach Pie and it’s amazing!
Savannah says
A bunch of my girls are coming over for a big breakfast this morning! Should be fun!
AK says
Favorite bottled water? I guess Dasani is alright. I prefer my filtered water at home, because the city water here is pretty grody. Last semester I made a conscious effort to drink more water throughout the day, and I’m still going strong at 8 glasses a day! Woot! I feel SO much better, I haven’t had a headache in almost 3 months, and the dark circles under my eyes have vanished. No kidding. Water is the best for your skin!
Adia says
I love tap water in Germany;D
Danielle says
I actually just decided that i don’t drink enough water. Especially when I’m at work! It’s coffee and Mt. Dew all day and then I wonder why I have a headache all afternoon. I just bought a 24 pk of bottled water, grocery store brand, to take to work to entice me to drink it more.
Xero says
Too tired to think of comment.
Kathryn says
Just good old tap water through the Brita for me! My cat gets his own glass of filtered water too, that way he doesn’t try to steal water from my glass!
Heather says
I don’t drink enough water! I am going to go get a bottle of water right now!
Evelyn says
I definitely do not drink enough water. It’s something I should really change, but I can never stick to it, for some reason.
Robin says
I can never seem to get enough water! I carry a camelback big bite bottle everywhere though, best water bottle ever AND they make one with a filter!
Liliana says
I just got a Zero Water filter and love it. the water tastes super clean and it comes with a little tester thingy to see how clean your water is.
Lauren D. says
I love drinking water, but still feel like I don’t drink enough. My favorite brand is SmartWater! 🙂
LilyN says
I’m so sleepy.
Ana says
I want to win 50$
tousledkitten says
I do drink enough water but I also drink a lot of coffee which probably counteracts the beneficial effect of drinking plenty of water. 😀
Qiana says
Today is my mother’s birthday!!! I love her soooo much. My favorite water is Dasani!
Alix says
I’d never drink my town’s water straight form the tap — gotta do the Brita water filter. Trying to be better about filling up a water bottle to take to work instead of buying bottled water when I get there!
libby says
I drink lots of water. But I need lots of ice in it.
Lisa K. says
I do drink lots of water, icey cold! But last night I had a ginger ale – & it sure was good!!!
Beth says
Nestle Pure Life or Ozarka are my faves.
dust says
water with ginger finely cut, or just lemon, or just water
Michelle says
I have started trying to put more water in my diet. Definitely don’t drink enough.
Sher. L. says
Hahaha. You have a wonderful sense of humour. I love water! Won’t let a day go by without drinking 8oz. It does wonders for my skin. 🙂
Christy O says
I can’t wait to find a suitcase of money under my bed so I can sleep in every day then travel everywhere I’ve ever dreamed. Pinching pennies is taxing on my system.
Sarah says
Hahaha what kind of water bottle do you have to squeeze to make it filter? I’ve never seen this ridiculous thing! I just use a regular brita pitcher, no squeezing required!
irini says
I try to drink as much water as I can…But it is not that easy in winter…
Kathy says
I don’t drink nearly enough water… but I bet I drink enough wine!
Step says
I drink tons of water. I use a filter that clamps onto the faucet. Bottled water is a hassle for me because I have to spend money on it and then I have all these bottles to recycle. The sink filter is a lot easier and less wasteful, but I’m in the midwest so our water is pretty good to begin with.
quimerula says
I’m out of BB corrector, so…
Jessica Stuart says
I just love Loreal’s Voluminous Million Lashes mascara in waterproof! I tend to get raccoon eyes as the day wears on, and this little girl works perfectly for me! NO smudges! As for being waterproof, she lasts through my occasional crying bouts, so she must be pretty tough. 😉
Noire Tropical Beauty says
Loving the new Smasbox Be Legendary lipsticks!
Nicole says
I never seem to drink enough water, been trying to do so this year!
Darlene says
Such beautiful weather we’ve been having lately! Love it!
Alisha says
We have a water filter in our fridge and I think it’s handy 😉
Amy says
My favorite brand of water is Nirvana 😀
Carolyn McAvoy says
Hah, I’ll have to get one of those bottles so I can get a workout. difinitely don’t drink as much water as I should, trying to work on it tho.
VictoriaJane says
We’re so lucky in San Antonio-our tap water is basically mineral water and minimally treated-from the Edwards Aquifer. Hard as all get out, but it tastes good! People pay a lot for bottled mineral water. . .
Michael says
I don’t really drink enough water, bhut I’ve been starting to more and more, especially with spring coming up and a new health regime!
Sara says
I love out Brita filter on our faucet. I bought my parents a Brita pitcher for Christmas.
Kaoyee says
Aww i really wanted one of those Brita water bottles too..
Paula says
I never drink tap water straight from the tap. I always filter it with a Brita pitcher.
patricia caradonna says
I purchased a six pack of Zephyrhills 23.7 fl oz water bottles. It is almost impossible to open the water bottles. I tried twisting the lid off and I feel like I am going to bust the water bottle. After I drink the water, I like to refill the bottle a few times before recycling the empty container.
Jennifer A. says
I drink a ton of water because of my Pur filter. But I hate that Pur is so much harder to find than Brita! I have to schlep around to find my Pur refills – so annoying! (I use Pur because I don’t like how Brita lets go of some of the charcoal in the filter, so it ends up in my drinking water.)
Christine W. says
I like water. Water is good. Love your blog!
mn says
I’m a PUR filter pitcher kind of gal. I loved it when I had a filter attached right to my faucet but after the kitchen remodel that was no longer possible.
genevieve says
I’m good with the filtered water that comes out of my fridge dispenser. I usually use my simple reusable water bottle, but sometimes I’ll go with the kirkland bottled water from costco.
As makeup goes, I used UD’s smog e/s the most this week 😀
Karen M. says
I definitely need to drink more water.
Sarah C says
My favorite brand of water is definitely SmartWater(:
ashley says
My resolution was to drink more water! Since the first of the year I’ve cut out all beverages except water (besides the occasional cocktail :)). I have to say I’ve already seen a huge difference in how I feel and have lost a few pounds! I was craving a diet dr pepper last weekend so I thought oh one wont hurt, went and got one took one drink and dumped the rest out because it tasted so awful from not drinking any for 3 weeks! Yay for H20!
eight says
I have a handy Brita water pitcher. I dislike bottled water after watching some documentaries and seeing the terrible things the companies do 🙁
Rochelle says
School has been stressing me out lately but I know I have to keep trying!
Missy M says
Just watched the final episode of Chuck, sniff
Emily says
I almost always drink tap water from a reusable bottle. I think bottled water is so wasteful.
Patricia says
I live in MA & the tap water really taste like chlorine just a horrible taste. I always buy Poland Spring bottle water. I drink a lot of water, it gets expensive. Really should get a filter instead. 🙂
Michelle B. says
I definitely do not drink enough water. I’m trying to be better about it so I bought a whole bunch of citrus from Trader Joe’s to slip in my water.
Lisa L says
My favorite brand of water is Fiji. I don’t buy it very much due to cost, but I really do like it best!
Stephanie Fabian says
I grew up with NY’s tap water and never noticed a taste nor smell. Now that I live in PA I can not stand the smell or taste of tap water.
jess says
The ladies at Ulta were total bitches to me yesterday! I am boycotting them and going to Sephora!
Andrea says
I like tap water, but my favorite is the lemon flavored water that you can get!! I have mainly been using Covergirl Natureluxe foundation this week 🙂
Nicolle S says
I have used my UD Naked Palette every day this week. So versatile!
TrippyPixie says
I refuse to buy bottled water, since it’s a complete waste of money for me. The tap water where I live is of extremely good quality, and I don’t like how bottled water tastes. Also, I wrote a paper for one of my classes about the impact of bottled water on the environment, so it’s completely changed the way that I feel about bottled water. It’s pretty much tap water for $5. I’ll use my reusable water bottle from The Container Store instead, thanks.
Laurenica says
brita or tap water … plus my kleen kanteen 🙂
J says
I like dasani… I’m convinced it has a taste and I like it.
tierra says
Oh I *never* drink enough water. Too much coffee, lol!
Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
Christine says
I drink about a bottle of water a day + a tumbler of tea so I hope that’s enough lol. Workout days include two bottles of water.
Eileen says
i used to not drink enough water until i bought a nalgene bottle. now i carry it with me everywhere and try to drink around 1liter a day! lol. thanks for the giveaway. =)
Allison says
I’m not the biggest fan of drinking plain tap water – but I pretty much always have a mug of tea nearby so I think it balances out 🙂
Megan says
I am loving MAC’s mineralize skinfinish in blonde this week!
Stefanie G says
I love sephora, they have the best products! Id love to work there!

I joke to my friends i’m like a camel – i hardly ever drink any water! i need to force myself to start drinking more. 🙂
India says
Moving in the next month…thinking about adopting a cat from an animal shelter…I really miss having a cat!
Joe says
i want football
Grace says
That’s so funny about the water filter!! Hope you are able to recover 🙂
Janine says
I don’t buy bottled water, comp,eye waste to my pocket and to our environment. I use a huge water filter in my fridge. Great giveaway!!
Barb says
When it’s wintertime, I definitely don’t drink enough water. I have a hard time drinking it when it’s this cold!
Sonnie says
Sephora is my PERSONAL HEAVEN!
Sarah says
It’s so easy for me to drink a ton of water in the summer but not so much in the winter… I always want something warm to drink.
Shelly says
My favorite brand of bottled water is “Smart Water.”
Christine says
I love Smartwater :D!
Rachel says
I prefer my water with crystal light, but I really prefer chocolate soy milk <3
Bhevarri says
I totally don’t drink enough water >.< I'm trying, though.
vonnie says
i want to move somewhere totally new
Tammy says
I think Chanel Chance (pink perfume) may be my new favorite perfume.
Jess says
Super quiet weekend. Thanks for sharing that cat cafe post! So interesting!!!
Eliza says
I’m good at drinking lots of water. It’s basically what I drink 95% of the time.
C says
I like maybelline’s full n soft waterproof mascara
Maren says
The water in Dallas tastes like dirt!
dawn says
the tap water in LA doesn’t taste very nice at all: hard and very chlorinated. filtering and chilling it makes it palatable, but it still doesn’t compare to soft scottish water!
FadBurger says
I know I don’t drink enough water…I’m trying to eat healthier but drinking more water is something huge I have to work on.
Jenn says
I had my first time professional facial experience a few days ago and my esthetician told me not to wash my face with tap water because it had bacteria in it! She told me to boil a pot of tea and use that instead. Weird, but I’ll have to look into that one.
Bernice says
I’m trying to use my Naked 1 palette more often !
Hanna says
The tap water where I live tastes pretty good, although Dasani is pretty good. I do need to drink more though, lately its been too much coffee or iced tea. Lately I’ve been in love with lush so I’ve been trying out their new A Million Kisses lip tint which is a beautiful red color, you should check it out if you haven’t already!
Bonnie says
I do not drink nearly enough water, shame on me.
Stephanie C. says
Excited to start my first day of work today!
Erika Beck says
I drink a lot of water… tap when I’m home, bottle when I’m out. But my favorite thing to drink is herbal tea! I LOVE Celestial Seasonings and Yogi teas.
Lucy Lu says
I’m still debating if I should get the naked 2 palette. I got to try it when it first came out and I sold it to a friend in need. Wasn’t too impressive. But with all of the hype, I feel like I have to have it. Maybe I’m just an addicting shopaholic.
laura says
I just got the NAKED2 palette and I think I’m in love
Kath says
All about the Sigg bottles!!!
chibicheeks says
I could not live without UD’s eyeliner in perversion
Jamie says
i <3 sephora
Lorraine ER says
I can easily drink over a half-gallon of water a day. I started when I was trying to lose weight and the habit stuck.
I use crystal light and some other low or calorie-free mix-ins when it starts to be too much. Crystal light iced tea with lemon is addictive even though it doesn’t taste like tea, exactly. It’s still awesome and makes drinking water more enjoyable!
Kate says
I drink sooooo much H2O! At least 4 liters/day
jen says
I suggest you try Kor water bottles! 🙂
