Leave a Comment for a Chance to Win a $50 Sephora E-GIFT CARD! (Ends Monday)

May 7th, 2016 by Karen 319 Comments

** THE GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED **

This giveaway is closed, and the winner has been contacted (CONGRATULATIONS, EMILY!!!), but check back next Saturday for another giveaway.

Rise and shine, pal o’ mine! Good morning! Happy Caturday. I hope you slept well.

I did. The baby slept for — get this — seven hours straight! I think that’s the longest stretch yet. She’s becoming a good sleeper (*knocks on wood*). I hope it lasts.

Do you have any plans for Mother’s Day? Brunch? I think we’ll stay home, probably. Maybe El Hub will make breakfast. 🙂 We’re still not really going out together very often because, you know, it’s still a little tough. Connor’s baby patience wears thin after about an hour, and it’s nice to be close to home when the fussiness starts…

How’s everything with you? What have you been up to this spring? How’s work? How’s the family? It’s been wonderful having the interns help with their great posts here on the blog (thank you, ladies!), but I don’t get to check in as often as I’d like. I read every single post and every one of your comments, but I don’t spend 10 hours online like I normally would/used to.

I’ve been slowly easing my way back into blogging… Or, rather, Chanel started pulling me back into blogging, because it’s just too damned gorgeous to deny, but I’m still officially on my maternity leave. Maybe another month or so.

Let me know how you’ve been doing and what’s new with you. Happy Mother’s Day tomorrow. Good luck in the giveaway.

    First of all, Happy Mother’s Day, Karen!! Staying in sounds nice: just you, el hub, and the little amazing person you created together!! 🙂

    Now, second of all, because this is an absolute Thing with me: no pencils!! gaah, they make me feel dirty somehow, lol… the lead –ok graphite, whatev– rubbed on the side of your writing hand, the faded letters… no thank you! pens all the way, preferably *not* black, and not the smeary kind! ……(can you tell I have an almost-lifelong love for stationery? 🙂 stores like Staples and back-to-school aisles are my happy place!)

    Final thought: glitter lipstick, not so much, though I am SO OVER the matte lip thing,me specially now that it’s waning up. shine and shine, sur, bring it on, but no chunky glitters! **although** I will step over the glitter line for lip gloss. I am not a big gloss person because I don’t like the sticky, but if I’m going to wear a big bold color with or without over the top glitter, gloss it is!!

    As for matte products I love – Becca or Viseart matte eyeshadows. I’m pretty sure these are made by baby angels with Pegasus feathers. So buttery, so lovely and sooooooo blendable. Love!

    Glittery lipstick is a YES! Remember UD’s Oil Slick lipstick… a sheer black with glitter. It was my absolute favorite (it was also great for deepening lighter lipsticks). I do LOVE all of the UD Naked collection but a part of me misses when they were a bit more wild!

    Glitter in lipsticks, the horror! It is a complete deal breaker for me. I might make som allowance for shimmer by looking the other way but chunky glitter is a big no.
    Overall, I dislike glitter because it never stays put.
    Matte products I like are basically eyeshadows and face powders destined for the T-zon otherwise I am very liberal apart from being a bit of a glitter nazi.

I am lucky that my 18 year old son has asked to take me out for lunch on Sunday (also my birthday), so I feel very blessed as he is the only one left at home now.

    I love glittery lipstick! In fact, I love all kinds of lipstick. Mattes are another of my favorites. I even go for outrageous colors. I’ve got several blues, a few greens, a black, and a gray in my collection! I don’t discriminate when it comes to lipstick colors (unless I’m putting on makeup for the office!)

    I like a shimmer in my lipstick but I don’t actually want chunky pieces of glitter left on my lips after the lipstick wears away. That said, one of those new UD Vice lipsticks contains glitter but the color look great. I think I would have to see it in person and swatch it myself to decide whether or not to chance the glitter.

I’m FINALLY seeing the doctors and specialists that know how to treat my medical issues. So needless to say I feel like I live in doctor offices. I did go to Ulta to pick up some $11 UD Revolution lipstick and Alice lipstick. I was curious about your thoughts on the 120 shade collection of Urban Decay Vice lipstick? I really love the Revolution formula and I can’t believe there will be 120 lipstick shades! I’m not so sure about it and won’t know how I feel until I try some out.

    I have had a bad relationship with pencils my whole life. The feel and the sound of the lead scraping on the paper is really disturbing to me, like how nails are on a chalkboard to a lot of people. I can remember being in early elementary school and we weren’t let allowed to use pens. Everything was supposed to be in pencil until we got to the 4th grade, I think it was. When I absolutely had to use a pencil, I would make it as sharp as possible and press lightly when printing, that minimized the trauma somewhat, LOL! But I was usually sneaking in pens and using them in spite of the teacher’s objections because pencils get on my nerves that much. I don’t even own a pencil now days (unless you count the eyeliner pencils – which don’t make an awful sound when being applied-thank goodness!) HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY KAREN!

He’s killing me with this waking up hourly until midnight business and last night he was up almost every hour. I didn’t get more than an hour at a time all night and there were only about 3.5 hours combined. Woof. Not how I wanted to spend Mother’s Day! I don’t think anything special is happening but I did request cupcakes from the store, the husband and toddler are off doing the weekly Target shop. Frosting can fix almost anything ?

    I am not a huge fan of matte lipsticks because I prefer a bit of gloss or sheen but I also don’t like glitter on my lips. Matte eyeshadows are the bomb.com but I love how a touch of sparkle turns daytime eyes into nighttime glam.

My husband and children bought flowers and planted them in memory of her in our flowerbeds. I thought this was really sweet and such a great surprise since I’ve been meaning to work on the landscaping.

    I have a blackberry at the moment, only because a friend was getting rid of it and I didn’t have a cellphone at the time. I am NOT a phone person, like, at all. It is never charged, I do not use it and I wish I could just get rid of it for once and for all. My ideal cellphone would be a cool looking tacky flip phone from like 2005, those were really cool looking!

The last time I wore that was back in high school (which was a lifetime ago) and it ended with an embarrassing thing that effectively ruined it for me for life!

    I say no to glittery lipsticks because once the color wears off all you see is the glitter and it looks weird. Looking forward to your return!

    I prefer matte finishes. The Cover Girl Queen 3 in 1 is amazing. I keep trying different foundations (just because), but none of them can compare to the Cover Girl Queen 3 in 1.

    My phone is an LG G3, an android and I love it!!! I’m pretty partial to pens, since they feel more “official” when writing and specifically medium ball-point vs. gel. Although, when writing journal entries I use my fountain pen. Yes, I love stationery and could spend an entire day in Staples. I know, I have a problem ! Lol

    Matte makeup products i like to wear include foundation ( i have oily skin), (liquid) lipstick (i’m not a fan of lipgloss and shiny lipsticks) and also eyeshadows (but there I like to mix it up with shimmery ones 🙂 ). I’m not a fan of matte nailpolish. I don’t like the look of it.

    I have really, really sensitive lips so glitter in my lipstick is a big no no, not that I like the look of glitter anyway.

    I just upgraded from an iPhone4 to an SE and I really love it!

    Happy day after Mother’s Day!

    I just posted a reply comment to you on another post where you had recommended some lip colors to me that dry down to a “dry to the touch” texture. I got my first Colourpop that you suggested and am ecstatic!!!! ?? Hope you get a chance to read it when you have some time.

    Have a great week!

    K, T & CC – What do you guys think of the oil in gloss or lipstick trend? Temporary fad or true innovation?

    I don’t know about “best”, but lately I’ve been loving The Sak/Sakroots brand bags. They come in some really cute seasonal patterns and designs. I love when funky meets functional!

    First, ?????? Happy Mothers Day! My kids are grown but I remember holding my gorgeous daughter for the first time and that smile never leaves you. Speaking of smiles, glitter lips for a photo shoot or if you are 20 going into the club it’s fine but I’ve always been a matte girl.

    Hi Karen – Happy Mother’s Day!

    I’m just getting into makeup (especially lipsticks) so I feel like I’m discovering a whole new world! *cue Aladdin music* lol

    A friend recently gifted me my first MAC lipstick (first MAC product ever!!!) in Ruby Woo. I’m super excited to use it. XD

    Cheers!

    I used to love to wear lipstick but I find that the lip stains last a lot longer and are more practical

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
