When he comes home from work in the afternoons, takes off his jacket and shoes and walks over to me for a kiss, I see his eyes smile the moment I say, “Hi, sweetie.”
That’s one of the things I — that I know El Hub loves the sound of my voice because I can see it in his eyes.
Good morning, young lady. Is it raining where you are? Here we are again, another Saturday morning. I think we’re the first ones up. It’s very gray and wet outside, like winter’s trying to make a comeback. Through the windows I can see the branches of an old oak tree reflecting in puddles of water on the railing of the back deck, but I feel safe and warm inside the house. It’s almost 7:30 a.m. El Hub is still in bed upstairs, but Tabs is here in the living room with me. He followed me down when I got up but then went straight to the top of his cat tower by the window and now looks like he went back to sleep.
Do you have any plans yet for today? Sometimes I feel strange writing about my mornings when I know that for you it might already be afternoon. Maybe you live in Paris where it’s 3:30 p.m. right now, and you’re a little sleepy and thinking about taking a nap. I should be asking you how your day went.
So how was your day? 🙂
One great thing about blog time is that it doesn’t really matter what time the clock says it is. Right now is right now for us all, and no matter what it’s still…

The weather has been sunny all week and the weekend has been cloudy and gloomy and cold! 🙁 not enough with that, I’m stuck at home with my girl who’s been bugging me non-stop since morning. I wanted to sleep in but got dragged out of bed and now i am so sleepy!
And having a headache over how should I wash a wool sweater of mine, which needs hand wash but it’s taking ages to dry, and now that it has dried, it has this musty smell. Yikes!!!
I could do with a little shopping from Sephora.com if I win this eGift Card.thanks Karen.

Super sunny here which is nice because we’ve had a lot of the blah rain lately (and snow on Thursday morning!!) It’s not warm, but baby steps, ya know? Later the bf and I are supposed to go to Rhode Island his Newbury Comics stop and my Ulta stop (it’s the closest of either store to us, though still almost an hour away) I got a new floral dress in the mail yesterday, so I’m looking forward to wearing that out to brighten the day.

Oooo, I still want to get the Botan Rice Candy lip gloss 🙂 And then I found out that Smashbox is selling the O-Gloss Gold that came only in a set at Christmas on its own, finally! I loved the set, but the O-Gloss Gold was the best part of it, and I SENT IT THROUGH THE WASHING MACHINE. UGH. So I’ve been hoping and waiting for it to come out on its own. Now it is, and I could buy it! 🙂

My last drugstore beauty product would actually be because of you! Revlon Super lustrous lipgloss in peach petal. Love it!
Natasha R says
After being in the hospital all week on IV for a major eye infection, it was so easy to complain about it. BUT, then I wondered why I would be complaining when there are millions of people and animals right now that may not even have access to hospitals and are suffering from more than just an eye infection!
I swiftly found an amazing organization helping the critters affected by the Japan earthquake and tsunami, and reuniting lost pets with their owners who have lost everything. It’s called Japan Animal Rescue and Support, and I made a hefty donation to help others that really need it. (Being a student, any amount is hefty haha)
I encourage everyone to donate something to a legitimate charity, at home or abroad. It really makes a difference. After, I also took a trip down to MAC for a lipstick, that always seems to help with the blues after an awful week! 😉
Have a great weekend everyone! Give your pets and loved ones extra hugs
Nailisha says
Currently I’m sitting in class. It’s too early to focus 🙁

It’s around 6:30 am in Honolulu, and I’ve been up for 4 hours already. Highly out of the ordinary, as I’m usually just getting up. Maybe it’s because I fell asleep at 6:30 pm!

I am loving Clinique Redness Solutions Instant Relief Mineral Powder. I got a sample of it, but just used it for the first time. Used a crease brushed and dabbed it on a stubbornly red zit (despite concealer etc) and it flat out disappeared! This yellow powder is amazing for making redness disappear!

Kelly says
I really like the colors in the new smashbox eyeshadow palette, but smashbox always disappoints me. They are a well known brand and used in runways, but I feel the quality doesn’t come to par especially since it is a pricier brand.
Karen, thanks for all the sephora giveaways. I always feel like a kid in a candy store when I go shopping at sephora 🙂

I’ll then moisturize with some mineral oil and Cetaphil lotion, then bling my face up with my make-up stash. How’s that for product placement? LOL! 😀

Hey Karen!
My hubs is still asleep and it’s almost 1pm! (yeah I know he gets piggie on wkends cos he works so hard on wkdays!)…
Weirdness of the day: I woke this morning to a loud whirling sound and discovered that a HELICOPTER was directly outside my 25th story apt!!! It was apparently being used to lift things off the building across from us, but it was seriously WEIRD – it was so close I could see the pilot!
Oh yeah, I’d love to win the Sephora gift card! xoxo
Tawni says
The best gift I have ever received is from my boyfriend who gave me some family pearls. I had never ever owned any real jewelry before and his mother gave it to him to give to me because he told her I was the one. Awww makes me all happy again thinking about it.

hey karen!

good luck to all.
Nathalie says
I wish drugstores had testers, but I would imagine them not being cleaned very often. The ones at Target are horrible. I heard of a study that said that department store makeup testers were a lot more germy on the weekends than on weekdays. I don’t remember what the numbers were, but it made want to stay away from Sephora on the weekends–I don’t really shop for makeup at department stores. But of course I’m kind of bored today and want to visit Sephora or Ulta. haha.
Rosie says
I spend the wee hours of Friday morning in the ER with allergic reactions to some medication I’m on but have been on for 8 weeks and finally the side effects got really bad (I hadn’t noticed them before) and so I was itching, my skin felt like it was on fire, I was extremely flushed and then my body got slightly numb and then weak and extreme cold and shivering so lots of meds. I later told a friend if it hadn’t been so bad it would have been funny to make a tutorial on how to cover your red face and then ended up like, “wait, it can’t be done, sorry” Cause it was the reddest red all over so that everyone in the ER kept commenting on it and asking, “Are you normally this red?”
Cindy Lartigue says
Hi Karen!!! I love your makeup blog, and I have purchased so many things from Sephora based on your comments! Right now I am sitting here in Monroe, WI and as cold as it is (wind chill 25) my dog insists on the balcony door being open so he can lay outside on his pillows. So, as I type this, my fingers are almost frozen to my keyboard but thats ok!
You rock!!
Thank you,

I just ordered my first ever NYX Palette’s online today! Velvet Rope and Secret World.
I am SO excited.
My friend gave me Surma, recently, which is a middle eastern Kajal(Kohl), that is kohl powder which is mixed with oil and applied with a stick.
Its gorgeous and stays for over 12 hours. I LOVE IT.
You should try it if you can get your hands on it. She gets it in a Saudi Flee Market. :O

I love receiving small surprising thoughtful presents from friends. It can be something small like a packet of bobby pins or headbands, because they remember I had run out or something. It’s just so thoughtful and heartwarming.

The last drugstore product I bought was Maybelline One By One mascara and I’ve been pretty pleased with it. It gives a nice natural but amped up look. I know lots of people complain about the tube but I think it’s kind of fun.

I’m sitting on a chair on a 4 hour bus ride back to school and having a terrible day that involved throwing away broken shoes in the middle of NYC and spilling my $4 large iced latte on a bus and having everyone laugh at me, I must have really bad luck… my last drug store purchases though, I’m super excited about- NYC lipstick in Sheer Red, a dark pink lipstick from the Wet and Wild wild shine lipsticks, the 7 deadly sin palette in Lust and Vanity!!! and the color icon single shadows in envy! I was in drugstore make up heaven after I had to throw away most of my makeup a few weeks ago. Anyway, awesomeee giveaway.

Karen, every time I go to Target and the Sonia Kashuk section is wiped out, I always wonder if it was your influence. 😀
Catherine says
Ooh my order from Coastal Scents just came in today. I got the bionic flat top brush, oh my GOD it’s so soft. It applies foundation like a dreeeaaaam 🙂 and it takes half the time to put on foundation than a regular foundation brush because it leave no streaks and it covers quite a large surface area in comparison, while still being able to reach into the corners of your nose and other little spots on your face. I’m never looking back.
Kim L. says
I bought my second 20 piece Inglot palette yesterday. I now have about 100 Inglot eyeshadows. I was thinking how many palettes I will be making for my friends and what fun I will have.
Then a coworker called- she wants me to accompany her to the doctor- she is expecting a multiple sclerosis diagnosis. I guess maybe that will be the best gift I will give any time soon….
Eva says
Loving the new hard candy foundation from walmart… Shockingly enough it makes my ginormous pores look smaller and covers my old acne marks. Great stuff!

I am sitting on the couch at my house this very moment.

Cass says
I have a bridal shower on Sunday that I have planned. I am so nervous! The other bridesmaids live out of the state and have not helped me at all. They didn’t even help pay for it. So now I am spending $800 and its really frustrating.
I love these contests when you can leave a comment about anything you want. Sometimes it just makes you feel better to put something into type. 🙂

Melissa says
Is the burt’s bees cleanser good??
Heidi Nazarudin says
Good morning to you too Karen!
Reading about your “beauty adventures” has so far been very entertaining and informative for me. I’m afraid I discovered your blog only quite recently (I was actually googling for “wonder woman” for a project) and I came across your blog. I’ve always loved makeup and its one of my not so guilty pleasures. I guess I sort of see this blog as a sympathetic partner in crime. (my favorite post on this blog thus far has been the “M.A.C Fifi swatch mission..lol) . Anyway, this is a really awesome blog. Have a wonderful weekend : )
neha says
wow love this giveaway and i love sephora a lot n want to bug thing from there ,thanks so much for having a lovely contest
peach_ says

Maggie says
Last drugstore item I bought was the Happy Booster Blush in Natural from Physicians Formula. I got sucked in by the cute packaging and heart design, but it turned out to be a really nice product. Now I’m thinking about going back and getting the highlighter in Translucent. I just went to Sephora earlier today to get a new foundation. Maybe it’s because I now live in a small town in the Midwest (for school), but I feel like the girls there, thought really nice, never really know what to do with my skin tone. Like no, the last thing I want on my yellow undertone skin is an pink or peach color that makes me look either inflamed or orange—what’s even more irritating is when they can’t tell what’s wrong. Maybe I should stick with shopping for makeup only when I’m back in the west coast, lol.
Christina says
So excited for all the spring and summer collections coming out! 🙂

I’m on a mission to potty train my son!
My son was diagnosed with Autism last year. The military denied us England last year and Japan this year. My husband called me yesterday to tell me we are moving to Hawaii! I’m so excited because im an Island girl (= it’s so close to home and because of that we are stoked! It’s been hard living far away from family for so long.
EDIT: Hi, Dar. I’m sure you’ll have a blast in Hawaii. El Hub’s family is from there, and it’s a wonderful place. BTW, I combined both of your comment entries into this one to make sure they count. There’s only one entry allowed here in the comments (and one more on Twitter, but I count those separately). -Karen

Amy Evans says
My latest drug store find: Rimmel London Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Liner Pencil in Royal Blue. Your blog inspired me to give a drugstore brand cosmetic line a try…& I have to be honest it’s the same as any other luxary eyeliner! $3 very well spent!

The last drugstore beauty product I bought was this orange lipgloss by L’Oreal… I really like it, but I still can’t tell whether it truly looks good on me because I have bad lighting in my bathroom/house that destroys both my natural coloring and the coloring of makeup products. :/ Alas.
In other news, someone upthread mentioned coconut ice cream and now I want some. 😀

Your blog is inspirational: It truely radiates not only your passion for beauty products but also the love for others (and animal!) in your life. Bravo, Ms. Karen..

An average day, usually I purchase at least some kind of makeup product every week, but unfortunately not this week. :(I always try not to spend much on the week I pay my student loan every month (only 7 more years of student loan debit…)

Wow…I almost missed this giveaway! I must have been living under a rock the last couple of days or something…
The last drugstore cosmetics purchase I made was on some Jordana eyeliners. I haven’t used all of them, but I did use the Fabuliner today and I really liked it. It’s a liquid liner but the applicator is like a felt tip pen. I think it’ll take some getting used to since I’ve never used anything like it. But I thought I’d give it a try since it’s only $2…
Thanks for another great giveaway!
