A Makeup and Beauty Blog Giveaway!

Good morning, glory. 🙂 I hope you slept well. Did you do anything interesting or fun last night?

El Hub and I drove down to Blue Barn in Corte Madera, and I got that salad I like (with the grilled shrimp and avocado). Then we just tooled around the mall until closing.

It was such a comfortable night outside, all warm with a beautiful coral and pink sunset, so it was nice to just walk around.

There’s an REI down there, so we walked in to look at bikes, and I found a cute blue one with flowers painted on it and tassels on the handlebars and a basket on the front that would have been perfect for kittens, but it was like $700!

Seriously, when did cute bicycles get so expensive?

In other news, this was a big week for my addiction to makeup. 🙂 I hope you enjoyed the MAC Maleficent and Alluring Aquatic coverage. I had a total blast doing those posts.

Good luck in this weekend’s Sephora giveaway. Talk to you soon.

    I fold Pli up and throw it in my car, so I am always ready for an impromptu bike ride wherevere I go!

  4. I have a bike in storage that I haven’t used in years. It’s a beautiful lightweight model, but the brakes are broken, so it’s not good to ride.

  12. My fave two eye shadow look at the moment is Urban Decay’s Sin and Snakebite. Super easy. I apply Sin all over the lid and upwards to my brow bone then Snakebite on the lid and blend. Both are neutral so it is an easy on the go look without too much effort!

  15. I wear my hair up every work day because I’m a nurse and can’t stand to have it hanging around and touching me while I’m taking care of patients! “Up” isn’t fancy, though — twisted up in a clip with my curls piled up on top….

  18. When is comes to taking pictures I hate it! I mean Idk if it’s the lighting which it probably is. I know not every picture is going to be a glamore shot, but it’s is ridiculous. Until I see a great one, I will start taking more pics! Lol..

  20. Hey Girl! Thanks for posting the Alluring Aquatic collection. I am loving the shadows especially and I loved the look that you created!

  23. My favorite lashes are by Red Cherry (#46)… inexpensive, really comfortable to wear and they look good!

  26. I only put my hair up when I’m sleeping because I don’t want it near my face. During the day when I’m out, I leave it down because my ears are a little mousy lol

  34. My favorite eyeshadow probably ever is Victoria’s Secret “Provocateur”. When I realized how low my first pan is, I regretted not picking up more than one extra- then again, I didn’t know they were going to discontinue their professional makeup line in February. Shame, really; they were the best. That, with a catlike line of Mary Kay “Espresso” (their best eyeshadow, imho) is my simplest look and also my favorite.

  43. I love wearing my hair up in a messy bun especially during summer since the heat & humidity here in Hawaii can get a little bit unbearable.

  45. If I win I’ll finally get that hourglass blush that has been haunting me 🙂
    P.S. I don’t know how to ride a bike.

  46. My favorite eyeshadow combo is a little boring,but it works for me. A Mac nude cream shadow followed by a Dior nude powder shadow. It makes me look awake, but not made up. I do switch it up with bolder choices sometimes, like a rich metallic or a bright pink sometimes which is fun. I used to go total drag queen and use sliver glitter stage makeup on my eyes, but I haven’t done that in years.

    You have to do your best pose.

  92. Hi Karen!! I just wore my hair up this morning. In fact, on most days I pin it up with an octopus clip, and then let it down a few hours later. Just give me some glasses, and I could pass for a librarian. LOL!! By the way, that Nude lip pencil from Hourglass looks really good against your complexion. Great color for you!! Love it!!

  95. I haven’t gotten to wear my hair up much in a long time. I cut it short, and now that I’m growing it out, I can just barely fit it into a ponytail. I can’t wait til it’s long and I can wear it in a poofy bun again!

  101. I don’t waterski or wear false eyelashes. Either one is a walk on the wild side, as in, too wild for me.

    Reply

  103. I used to use the Ardell 120 Demi’s. I used to use them while cocktail waitressing, they served me well. I did have a bike, and I had to leave it behind in a stressful move as a teenager. So sad, I saved up for months for it.

  105. I don’t currently own a bike. Although I did train for the Seattle to Portland race with my dad – which we didn’t end up being able to compete in due to an event conflict. Had to re-sell our entry tickets.

    I really prefer to run, walk or hike for my outdoor exercise these days.

    And, a tip – if any of you ladies like to wear your hair up, you’ll have to try Goodie spin pins. They are fantastic for making a quick bun.

  161. When it comes to taking pictures…I prefer candid shots! I’d much rather see how everyone was actually standing or acting when the photo was taken than have them pose for a shot. I feel it better captures the memory and vibe of that particular moment.

  169. Hi Karen, that sounds like a lovely evening with your hubby! I had a wonderful weekend so far. An old friend of mine came to visit me after not seeing each other for 10 years! that is since I left my home country. She has a beautiful 4 months old baby girl. It was a lovely evening and they stay for the night. They have bought an apartment in Paris (that’s 4 hours in TGV from here) so we will see each other much more frequently from now on!! That was nice

  170. Had a great dinner out with friends who came into town unexpectedly this weekend! My hair has been short for the last twenty years or so, so that leaves out putting it up, and my bike is blue but has a flat tire that I keep forgetting to replace.

  174. It’s turned incredibly cold here (I’m in Australia) so I think winter is not far away. I have my snuggle rug over my knees and for some reason it’s a cat magnet. I have seven cats – I had eight but my oldest cat died last week 🙁 He was old and unwell but he was lucky to die in the sun in my husband’s arms at home, rather than after being injected by a vet. In the end it was quick and he had a long, good life. He would have been 17 in a few months. Farewell Maxie!

  198. I scrunch my hair and put it up and everyone at work calls it an updo – it’s just lazy day hair to me.

    Reply

  199. I have hip length hair I wear up all the time. I work in a lab, it would be no good to get nasty chemicals in it. My favorite way to wear it it in a crown braid, or two braids wrapped around my head with a soft jersey headband wrapped around them, so the loops of the braids show in back. It’s perfect for dirty lazy hair days, which happen often as an overworked grad student.

    Reply

  200. I wore my hair up on Friday since I really needed to wash it haha. Then I dyed it yesterday :). I’ll try not to wear it up for a bit.

  214. The last time I wore my hair up was probably when I was around 15 cause that’s when I cut it all off. I’m 23 now and that one short period last year when I thought it would be fun to grow it out doesn’t really count. It wasn’t as fun as I thought 😉 Just when it started to touch my shoulders for the first time in years, I went back to my pixie cut. Still loving it! No regrets 🙂

The graduates are standing in 93 degree heat and just really want to go to the ” after grad” party at the restaurant. 🙂 Take two really good ones of each group and then quit.

  309. I have absolutely no idea how to waterski. I’m so darn klutzy that I wouldn’t trust myself doing that! I have been tubing, though, and that’s a lot of fun.

  311. Wearing my hair down right now since I get only one day of non-oily scalp after washing hair and I gotta utilize that…

  312. Complete this sentence: when it comes to taking pictures…I take way more than the average person (or so I’m told) at different angles to get the perfect picture. I like to take lots of nature pictures and the angle/lighting can make a big difference in how cool some of the shots are. Things also tend to look different on the camera screen as compared to on my computer so I take a lot of pictures and pick my favorites once I have them loaded on my laptop. I blame my pickyness on my genes (my grandpa and all of his brothers were professional photographers so I think I picked it up from their side.). I have some pretty amazing pictures because of my pickyness, though. I took 2 from my trip to Hawaii and had them blown up on canvas for my living room wall 🙂

  318. My favorite pair of false lashes are the ardell demi wispies. They aren’t too dramatic and fit nicely on my eyes.

  319. It has been awhile since I’ve entered any contests…everyone wants you to have Facebook and Instagram and Twitter…and I don’t. Mostly because I find it easier to live in the moment by actually being in it. Much easier and much more fulfilling than pulling out my phone, taking a picture, uploading the picture and having everyone comment, critique and taking the joy from the moment. I thank you for giving regular, life loving, memory holding people like me, a chance to enter! Have a good week!

  320. I used to have a bike and I even had it on campus, but the tire blew. Then I got hit by a cyclist the next year and now have a permanent bump/bald spot on my skull, so no more bikes for this chicky. 🙁

  324. I wear my hair up either in a bun or ponytail daily b/c if I don’t, it makes my neck hurt & gives me a headache since it’s so coarse, thick & heavy…that’s kinda sad that my hair causes actual pain, huh? lol I wanna shave it but my family is totally against it- I think I might just come home one day w/ it already shaved 😉
