Greetings, gorgeous, and splendiferous salutations! Happy, happy Saturday. 🙂 In case you were wondering, no, you have not just entered Oz; however, you are about to enter this weekend’s $50 Sephora eGift card giveaway (I hope!).
Nothing new to report from out here in partly cloudy Novato, California. Been watching lots of the Olympics lately with Tabs and El Hub. The other night during one of the swimming events, it occurred to me that I jog just a wee bit faster than those swimmers swim, LOL!
Today, I’m driving down to visit my friend Jen and her little boy (My “nephew.” I’m the cool aunt.) in San Jose, which is about 70 miles from here. I’m taking Jen to the MAC counter because she wants to learn more about eye makeup.
Tabs will be holding down the fort here at MBB headquarters while I’m gone.
Oh — he has a message for you. “Meow,” which loosely translates, “Good luck in the giveaway, and have a great day.”
What folks are saying…
“Hi Karen. Oh my goodness! I can’t believe I won! :O Thank you so much! You, Tabs, and your blog are amazing! Thank you for keeping me updated on all things beauty and more importantly, for keeping me entertained! Keep doing your thing! Thank you again.”
-Jacqueline“Thanks so much, Karen. Just in case you were wondering what I got with it, I decided to go with the Clarisonic Mia–I’ve been wanting it for years now, but have never purchased it because of the price. Your eCard helped me finally buy it! I look forward to using it. Thanks again!”
-Jane“Shut the front door! OMG Karen, you have made my day. 🙂 I’m sick in bed with the flu and this has just cheered me up immensely!!!!!!!! BTW, I’m the one that sent you that pic of my pug in a wig a few weeks back LOL! Thanks again, honestly, I’m beyond giddy right now.”
-Angel“Oh my goodness! Thank you so much Karen (and Tabs, of course)! I really appreciate this! I’d been eyeing the Anastasia brow pencil in Strawburn to match my red hair!”
-Chelsea (and Jiji the kitten and Quincy the bunny)“Never before have I been so pleased to check my email right before bed!!! Thank you so, so much! I truly enjoy your blog and check it almost daily! Thanks again! This made my night!”
-Melissa, Edmond, OK“Hi Karen. Thank you so much, I’m so excited, I’ve never won anything before. My name is Hana … I just turned 25 (today is my birthday!) Yay! Thank you.”
-Hana

What’s the shortest you’ve ever cut your hair?
Six years ago I had a buzzcut.

Hi Karen, thanks for the giveaway! My artistic hobby is that I really like to paint, oils and acrilics. I’m working on a really big painting right now and am regretting the size – its taken months to finish!
Valerie says
Hi Karen!
My last visit to a MAC counter was back in April when I bought Ravishing lipstick; such a beautiful color!
My favorite subjects in school were any and all science courses. I loved biology and chemistry most
As for the shortest I’ve ever cut my hair… Boy short. I loved it. I’ll eventually go back to it but right now I like playing with my long hair.
I hope you can find some amazing MAC stuff for Jen! Not that it’ll be difficult for you. 🙂 have a great weekend!

What should be an Olympic event but isn’t? Errrrrr, estafette with make-up brushes? 🙂
Do you have any artistic hobbies? Make-up? Writing about make-up? 🙂

Kristina says

I’m more of a Sephora girl than a MAC girl!

I love Sephora, thanks for a chance!!

Nikki A says
The shortest cut I had was a chin-length Bob in college, my mom flipped out because I “cut all my hair off ” . My favorite class was anything science related. Haven’t been to a Mac counter in years -their stuff tends to break me out.

Lauren says
Ive never been to a MAC counter, and I’ve never cut my hair shorter than my shoulders. This weekend I’m shopping for school supplies.
janey says
The shortest I’ve ever cut my hair? It was buzz cut/ David-Bowie-circa-1983 short once. ‘Twas a sad, sad hairdressing mishap, caused by miscommunication and too much talking. And you’ve reminded me that it’s been way too long since I’ve been to a MAC counter… Nordstrom, here i come!
JE says
Never been to a MAC counter
bruna louise says
my favorite classes were math!
Jeniie says
It’s been a while since I’ve been to a MAC counter. I’ve been buying all my stuff from their website! I find it’s always super busy whenever I walk by MAC so I don’t usually go in.
Karin says
The last time I went to the MAC counter was well, never… but I went to the free standing store not to long ago when the Hey, Sailor! collection was released. I scrambled in there with my MAC Pro Card and everything to get my hands on the highlighting powder in Crew. And to my dismay, it was sold out. But I eventually got my hands on it on a trip to LA so hoorah!
Vanessa says
My mom and I were smelling perfumes at Sephora yesterday. One of the Sephora ladies told me to smell a certain perfume, I then told my mom to smell it. She just goes: “It smells like cat piss!” … What a priceless moment! 😀
Shana says
Bring back Olympic baseball and softball! Seriously.
Jennifer says
Hi Karen and Tabs!!!
This weekend I plan to go to Port Huron beach in Michigan for some fun in the sun, as well as watching the Olympics non stop with my cat checkers.
The last time I visited a MAC counter was about a week ago, I got on of the last bronzers in the Hey Sailor collection, which was mostly sold out, and I love it.
I play with my make up a lot on the side, would that be an artistic hobby? I think so.
The shortest I’ve ever cut my hair was chin length, in the 8th grade. It was a big mistake for my face shape and took what seemed like forever to grow back. Never again I’ve learned by lesson, LOL.
Lilly says
I am sick this weekend 🙁
Heidi says
I’m getting ready to go to a birthday party for a woman who’s turning 91!
Step says
I got an unexpectedly short hair cut a few months back. It was about 3 inches shorter than we planned so I freaked out. My stylist was like “Well I can’t put it back now!” I went to my mom for sympathy and she said “Maybe you shouldn’t do this again…” Ugh. I realized that it wasn’t the end of the world though. Life lesson!
Zoey says
I don’t think I’ve ever been to a MAC counter! 😡
Chelsey says
I haven’t been to a MAC counter in a long time. Several months at least. Sad, I know.
VictoriaJane says
What am I doing this weekend? For the first time in my entire life (& I’m older than you!) I’m leaving the house wearing a full face of foundation. It’s a little overwhelming-even though I’m addicted to makeup & makeup blogs, just never got the hang of foundation. But gave it a try again after your tutorial, used a brush, and am pretty happy with the results. We’ll see! Just shopping for school shoes, so low stress. Happy weekend!
Lisa B. says
I’m hanging out with a friend who is leaving the country. It has been months (!) since I’ve been to a MAC counter…
Xero says
The first/last time I saw MAC products in person was around two months ago, when I was at the capital for Comicon. They have a huge mall there, which has a MAC store. I only ever go to the capital maybe once a year, since it’s a three-hour drive.
Alison says
I had a veeeery short haircut back in high school. I’m talking ears cut out, so short I could spike it up! Boy, that was a pain to grow out. Never again!
Sunny @ Mostly Sunny says
Wow I can’t even remember the last time I was at a MAC counter. It must have been quite a while ago to be honest! It’s not that MAC hasn’t been launching exciting stuff, it’s just that I’m so distracted by other brands!
Cass says
I am not sure what I am doing this weekend. Something without my soon to be ex husband!
Daniella says
This weekend I am recovering from San Francisco marathon (it was an amazing experience!) so not doing much except hanging our with the boyfriend tonight and seeing a movie about Marie Antoinette with friends tomorrow.. last time I tried to visit the Mac store in Pasadena, it was closed down, bah!
Rebecca says
I love the weekend
Taylor says
Today I spent an hour organizing my MAC online shopping cart with what I want to buy with my next paycheck, and it doesn’t even include the By Request collection! Egads.
Ann says
I’m currently watching the Olympic triathlon! GO USA.
Minhee says
I just ordered a pizza, yum!
Nora says
LOve the olympics

Adventure racing or orienteering could make for interesting Olympic events, but I really like the summer games as they are.
Hope that you have a wonderful weekend and thanks again for another great giveaway opportunity! 🙂
Jenny says
Funny you should ask that question today, but… I’m going to a MAC store for the first time! I have a bunch of back2mac stuff that I’ve accumulated over the years, so I’m going to go in and get myself a few free eyeshadows! Super excited!
Stephanie C says

Prianka says
Totally random: I had to break out of my room this morning…I slammed my door so hard that the knob broke 🙁 I was home alone and used a pair of scissors to break my knob and get out LOL At least now I know how to break out of a room with a pair of scissors!
Trudy Simoneau says
Hey Karen! YOU ARE AWSOME :)!
Liz says
When the winner is determined is it posted or does that person just get an email? I didn’t see the winner of the last contest.
Katrina says
Awe Karen I wish I could go with you to the makeup counter and learn about eyeshadow! I guess for now I will learn from you from this magical thing called the internet.
Jill H says
Hi Karen! Hope you’re having a Fantabulous Saturday! Watching the Olympics and rooting on USA!!
Lindsey says
Hi! I just started to use MAC makeup and I love the Mineralize collection. It gives me a dewy look and cover a few blemish scars I have remaining. 🙂
onegreatsmile says
I’ve only cut my hair short twice in my life. THe second time was an even bigger mistake than the first lol. Curly frizzy hair and the Dorothy Hamill haircut did NOT mex. Neither did the ” Meg Ryan.’ Should’ve learned my lesson!!!!
Ask says
Love the Olympics!
K. says
Thanks so much for the giveaway! My artistic hobby is writing…can’t get enough of it! xoxo

Lydia L says
Ms.K, I haven’t visited a MAC counter in a while but will be soon cause I love their eye makeup remover!!! I want to buy six of them but that’s expensive!!! I used to wear Lancome’s but it leaves an oily feeling around my eyes!!!……You and Tabs have a GREAT day!!!
Julia says
Oklahoma is having a tax free weekend so I spent the morning shopping. And now I’m exhausted so I’m going to spend some quality time with my couch.
Grace says
111 degrees for days in a row plus being 8 months pregnant equals not fun at all!
Elizabeth Medina says
THe last time I went to the MAC counter I couldn’t tell you, I ordered my last stuff online.. because I searched high and low for Evolution Revolution and couldn’t find it anywhere! So I had to order it online. But I just went to a Sephora last night, does that count? I wish there one closer to my house though 🙁
Ivy says
I’m studying to become a concept artist so yes, plenty of artistic hobbies!
Sydney Durr says
i’m going to the beach tomorrow and can’t wait!
Melissa says
Hi Karen. The shortest I’ve cut my hair was a pixie cut, and I cut it like that a few months ago. I’m debating if I should keep it short or grow it out. I like it short during the summer. I really enjoy changing my hair style regularly.
I tweeted about your giveaway https://mobile.twitter.com/rileymariesmom/status/231831191794380800

My cat took a wet poop on the carpet this morning..hope she isn’t sick! She was very embarrassed and feels bad about it because now she won’t leave my side or my lap. Poor girl
Ali says
My AC isn’t working…and I live in Florida. It’s so grossly humid, I think if I put any makeup on it would just sweat right off..
Soo says
the last time I was at a MAC counter was a Pro store in Chicago when the Chenman (and Marcel Wanders 2?) collections were out. I’ve bought some MAC products since then, but haven’t been to a physical counter since! really loved the Chenman collection, I think it’s the one MAC release where I have most of the products from the collection.
Jasmine says
I was at a MAC counter yesterday. Just browsing around and saw lots of neat colors.

Annaham says
Last time I visited a MAC counter was at the beginning of June 🙂
Lynn says
i use to work at macy’s so the last time i visited was about 5 years ago, i bought my friends and myself shadows with my macy’s discount. it was probably our first higher end, non-drugstore make-up. well besides bare essentials foundation. I haven’t visited since because I have too much make up already. I’m more focused on skin care now and less make up. I wish Sephora had a salon like Ulta. then i can shop and get a cut too.
Justine says
The shortest I’ve ever cut my hair was a chin-length angled bob. My hair’s too long now so I plan to get it cut again.
Katrin says
When I was 14 I decided that I wanted to have a really short haircut. Only a couple of centimeters long. I cried for days.

Becca @ The Beauty Sample says
Last time I was at a MAC counter was a few months ago. I bought a MAC 109 brush and almost immediately returned it. It was stiff and scratchy and shed like the dickens!!! I have no idea why people love MAC brushes so much, I honestly felt like I got better, softer brushes from Sonia Kashuk!!
Jane says
It’s 112 degrees today – too hot for make up, but that doesn’t stop me. I’m watching the Olympics too.
Kim Law (kimmydadiva) says
I am most definitely watching the Track & field category of the Olympics this weekend… The weather is beautiful today.
Joyce says
A few years ago, my hair was severely damaged due to over chemically processing it. I had to chop it up to my shoulders and kept cutting it every 6 weeks. I’ve stopped chemically messing with my hair since then and now my hair is soft, manageable, and beautiful! I actually got it trimmed yesterday because my hair was passed my breasts.
Sabrina says
The last time I was at a counter was about 3 years ago – I was getting my makeup done for my now boyfriend and I’s first date!
Emelie says
Talking to my friend Juni 🙂

I’m doing nothing this weekend. It’s too hot to do anything other than sit in an air conditioned room and move as little as possible.
irini says
I had a bob once, horrible idea.
Kate & Zena says
Yay for giveaways! I wish ballet were an Olympic event!
Maybe I’ll watch Track & Field for the first time in Summer Olympics history. I’m really proud of Oscar Pistorius making the regular Olympics. He may not be from my country, but I’m proud that the Olympics allowed him to run finally!
BooBooNinja says
I’m trying to minimize my stash but i bought a backup (my first ever) of my HG highlighter (which is LE). Now I’m infatuated with the Burberry Sheer Summer Glow compact. What is up with me?!
Rachel B. says
This weekend?! Getting an oil change for my car! How exciting, huh? Preparing for a loong drive this week. Hope you had a great time with your nephew!

Lazy weekend – my fav!

Adia says
I went to the wedding party and might go out tomorrow 🙂
Solangel says
All I have to say is that right now I’m addicted to The X-Files (the whole thing’s on Netflix, praise jebus) and I really want to know what lipstick Scully is wearing!

Hey Karen, thank you for the giveaway! 🙂

Denise J. says
I think I need to make a MAC counter a visit today too
KPrice says
I wish I had someone like you to take me to a Mac counter, or any cosmetic counter for help. Especially for eye makeup. I’m starting to learn what works for me but am still close to hopeless. I was hoping to look at some Mac cosmetics today but it was not to be. Thanks for a chance at a giveaway – have a good weekend!

Going to Vietnam today! Hope the trip goes on smoothly and we will have a great time.

ashley says
oooh karen i would love to win!
Natalie says
I have a confession to make. I’m in my 30s and I have only just gotten into makeup. Nail polish was my gateway drug and it was a quick progression to lip color and eye makeup. I’m now in the market for some good makeup brushes, brush cleaner, brow pencils, and the perfect nail top coat. I am already dreaming away that $50…
jaymie says
I just visited my MAC store yesterday to check out the Tarnish eyeliner. Sadly, they were out of it so now i have to go to another store.

Hillary says
I’ve been loving Olympic swimming!
Angela Clark says
Just bought the Boscia No Pores No Shine TZone treatment…and wow! It actually works! I actually slept in my makeup (I know, big no-no), but wanted to try this overnight, since my face produces alot of oil at night too. Wow! Woke up this morning, and my makeup still looked great!
blkrox says
I am totally stalking the MAC website for the relaunch of Candy Yum Yum, hehe

Angled bob, a la Victoria Beckham. It was cute but I doubt I would do it again.
nabel says
lazy day today!

Jennifer says
Hi Karen, my first trip to the MAC counter was when I was around 19 and bought my first “high end” foundation, concealer, and compact. I had a drag queen friend who had the most flawless beautiful skin and SWORE by MAC and told me exactly what to buy. I’ve moved away from their foundations and powders but am still religiously devoted to their concealers and shadows. Blessings to all!
Lacey J. says
I actually have never been to a MAC counter. I have always lived in towns too small to have a MAC. I order all my makeup online anyway because I can’t get anything good around here.
Michel says
Hey Karen! The shortest I cut my hair was a travesty of a bob in college. Not a good look for me but thankfully my hair grows super fast.
My last trip to a MAC counter was over six months ago when I put myself on a buying freeze. Now I just spend my money on running gear! Whatevs! 🙂
Nicolle says
I love doing nail art! That’s an artistic hobby right? 😉

Karen, Queen of Sephora, thank you for the chance at the giveaway.; I was at Sephora today as a matter of fact, and I happened to walk right past hte Mac counter (inside Macy’s) to get there. I used to be a Mac finatic for year and years, but find myself loving Dior and YSL and Tarte right now. Bought Dior Nude Glow powder (in Amber) today and I’m in complete love.

Michelle says
so i was on a semi makeup buying ban for 2012 as part of my new years resolution…semi because i was still allowed to buy necessities (isn’t everything?) and LE items that i really NEEDED to have. i was mostly good for half of the year – that’s good, right? 😉

When you go into a makeup store and come out with a few items, what is that one item or brand you can never leave the store without? (ex. NARS, OPI, eyeshadow, blush)
Vanessa F says
I know it sounds weird, but pole dancing should totally be an olympic sport. Not the kind strippers do, but the actual art of pole dance. It’s extremely difficult-like gymnastics on a pole.
Corinne says
Went to MAC today at one mall and went to the pro store yesterday…it’s like I can’t get enough haha
Jessica says
Wow! It”s been almost a year since i went to MAC.
Sondra says
The shortest I ever cut my hair was a hideous pixie type thing. And it WASN’T what I went in for. i asked for a bob, but she said she started cutting and felt INSPIRED halfway through that I would look better in a pixie. It was HIDEOUS. I held in the tears until the salon door shut & then started sobbing so hard I couldn’t even drive home. (I borrowed my mom’s wigs for almost a month until it had grown out a little) Ahhhhhhh memories. 🙂
chunyi says
This weekend im pretty much staying glued to my TV watching the olympics, this,makes it seem Like I have no life. I’ve actually never tried Mac, is that odd?

Ineke says
Just went out to have breakfast with my hubby and my mom. Loved it.
I don’t go to a MAC store in my country which is Belgium because in my opinion it’s too expensive. I’d rather splurge when I’m in the US.
I would rather pay a ticket to fly to the US and spend the rest of my money on makeup then buy 1 product here that I think is not fairly priced because of the $/€ conversion and Belgian taxes (which are 21%)… 😉
Have a wonderful (Sun(ny))day
Chanelle says
I am not sure about events, but I wish the Parolympics got more coverage/popularity!

I think they should bring back olympic tug-o-war. Not the most complicated sport, but I bet it would make great TV.

I like most olympic sports so I’m not sure what else they could add, kinda stinks they don’t have baseball/softball anymore

I am heading to a classic car show today with my hubby. Then hopefully making a stop at Sephora. 🙂 Hope you’re having a great weekend Karen!

Ilana says
I’ve always wondered what it would be like to fall into a movie – like, going to a theater, watching, and then all of a sudden…right in the middle of the action. The last movie I went to was The Dark Knight Rises – I think I’d be tripping over myself to get to Marion Cotillard ^-^;

I’ve bought a couple of things to get me started I just haven’t found the time or the drive to even start such a big project. I love watching the Olympics 🙂 It’s great and I haven’t really thought about anything that isn’t included in the Olympics.. I think that everything that should be included already are.

I see almost everybody is doing Mac so well I was there a couple of weekends ago ~ Pro Shop in chicago and got the Show Orchid, Violetta and a new to me foundation. Plus some eye shadows. I am kinda done with the make`up shopping this season or at least the budget says so. Although I am craving some red lips and a gc would help ever so much
Tea says
This weekend I just relaxed something I rarely do. I put braids in my hair, visited some family, and attended a birthday party. Now since it’s the end of my weekend I had planned on cooking some green thai curry chicken with brown and veggies, but my rice cooker just stopped working. I just made a simple wrap and will go get another one tomorrow. My weekend was pretty boring but eh sometimes boring is good.

Shortest I’ve ever cut my hair was a pixie cut. I loved it! I have long hair now, which I do love, but sometimes I wish I had short hair again.. not ready to make the plunge again yet though 😉
Jess L says
Stuck at work, in serious need of some Starbucks!
Brandy says
The shortest I have cut my hair was up to my collar bone and before I cut it, it was down to my hips!!!! But ya I didn’t regret because I wanted to cut it really bad so I did it!!! And when the lady was fi finished cutting my hair it felt so light and I just kept playing with it I was just so happy but that was like 2 years ago lol

Would you believe my first trip to the MAC counter was this weekend? I decided it was finally time to buy an eye shadow brush, already, instead of using the tiny little foam things that may or may not come with the shadow. The 239 is now mine, and I loooove it.

one really funny incident i wanted to share : my son is fussy eater , there was some function few days back in his school and it was too late by the time we finished everything ,.So we headed to nearby restaurant and ordered our food . For him we ordered kids combo but my son refused to eat anything , saying … “i dont like food here , mamma cooks the BESTTT” and me and hubby laughed hard , how easy it is for kids to fool us na ?? by this he was easily escaped and made us happy too with his one liners .
Kids i tell you …

Rozae says
It was Monica Bellucci’s ad for docle&cabana, that made me cut my hair like her’s. And I never had this so short but I totally rock it with curls!
Jenn P says
Must…..Resist…..MAC! Every time I go near that counter it’s always “to look.” Next thing I know my pocket book is $50 lighter and I have a bag full of goodies! It’s like shopping amnesia! You walk out in a daze like “Wait, what just happened? Oh MAC.”
Ari garcia says
Hello….I never been on a MAC counter :'(….I really would love to try it 🙂
Hali says
I haven’t been to a MAC counter in a month. Prior to that, at least 3+ months. I live at least 1.5 hours away and I hate going to Louisiana locations because the girls are usually rude. Jackson, MS ladies are always awesome. I actually back 2 mac and got Snob 🙂
But hey, I have a cremesheen and longwear creme lippie arriving tomorrow. Online shopping is my favorite!
Aarti says
Having curly hair, I always want to go super short but am always afraid I’m just gonna look a mess. I shall have to brave next time!
Camille says
Hello! Since we moved to the desert, I have only worn make up twice. It’s too dang hot to wear make up! I’ll muster up the effort to put on my face, but I don’t know when that will happen. :o/

Janna - Clever and Colorful says
You know what’s weird? I’ve never been to a MAC counter. I bought stuff from Blogger’s obsessions online and received the rest I own (not much) as gifts. I’m desperately trying to find out my foundation shade though so I’m going soon!
Bonnie says
It wasn’t a counter, but I was in a MAC store in the (gigantic) West Edmonton Mall when I was in Canada last week.
Rene Groyer says
Had a relaxing weekend by visiting my parents who had home backed scones for tea.Then I went to the French film festival and saw a wonderful movie called Chicken with Plums.It was so sad it made my 15 year old son and myself cry.After the movie we then had fantastic fish and chips at a very good restaurant .To top this off I did some shopping at the supermarket and bought yummy strawberries.
Mary says
The last time I visited a MAC counter, I was impressed by the woman’s ability to understand my color-babble. “Hello, I’m looking for a matte red lipstick. I want it to be darker red, not really bright pin-up red, but not burgundy that has too much purple in it. Understand?” She immediately went for Viva Glam 1 and it’s AWESOME.
Sophie says
I really want to win so that I can buy that new lorac pro palette
Avery says
This would be great for a future college student!
Melissa says
