7 Ways to Win a $50 eGift Card From Sephora! (Ends Monday)

May 17th, 2014 by Karen 322 Comments

A Makeup and Beauty Blog giveaway
A Makeup and Beauty Blog Giveaway!

Good morning, glory! How did you sleep? Help yourself to a cup of coffee in the kitchen.

So, Godzilla last night… El Hub and I went.

Now, let me just start by saying that I sort of missed the whole Godzilla thing growing up. El Hub, on the other hand, appears to have seen dozens of Godzilla movies over the past zillion years, maybe because he grew up in Hawaii or something, and they must have been really popular over there. I don’t know.

At any rate, I went into the theater only expecting this: GIANT MONSTER DESTROYS CITIES! (With the all-caps like that because I expected a lot of it.)

And, uh, that’s pretty much what I got. 🙂 But you know me, I love sci-fi, and it was sci-fi-ish, so I liked it well enough.

Still, I can’t believe there are dozens of Godzilla movies out there. I wonder what the other ones are about…

LOL!

In other news, have you ever noticed how long cats drink when they drink water? It’s a freakishly long time, right? Tabs will sit at his water bowl lapping water for like three minutes!

Sorry, random thought…

Good luck in this weekend’s giveaway. Hope you have a fun weekend lined up.

Suddenly feeling the claws on my head definitely affirmed that one meme for me… “BIRDS – scary as sh*t.” So most likely I wouldn’t be a bird at all, but a hummingbird if I had to be. Though I wouldn’t be opposed to one of those funny little fat owls, either 😀

    My favorite current look is a MAC duo from the “Love” collection inspired by a Chinese artist, I forget her name, but I love this eyeshadow duo because it is supposedly highly mineralized and has glitter specks for a little pizzazz and I put the deep cerulean in the corner crease. It’s a nice summer look, and pair it with MAC “faux” lipstick which is a very faint mauve with a hint of lavender. It’s a nice neutral lipstick that doesn’t overshadow the eyeshadow (no pun intended).

    my favourite makeup look is natural…barely there…for myself, i don’t wear makeup every day and when i do its normally just a bit of foundation or bb creme and mascara, maybe some lip gloss. That’s enough for every day.

    You have to see the original Godzilla with Ray Milland. It is exceptional. It has a good storyline and because it is shot in black and white I found myself really empathizing with the characters as if it was a documentary. The other Godzilla movies were much cheesier, but still good in a B movie kind of way. Love your blog. It is a bright spot in my life. I read you daily.

    So stoked this 2 wk allergic reaction to any one of a million lip products I own is nearly at an end- to wit, my random comment is a contribution by way of advice for fellow mystery allergy victims: make sure your peppermint lip balms are separated from your natural “help-my-lips-are-falling-off” balms (this one hurt), and never underestimate the staying power of vaseline (especially the delicious smelling rose scented teeny version) for overnight lip protection.

College just shows how well you can regurgitate information onto a piece of paper. In this economy, the work world is looking for people who already have a bunch of experience. If you notice in the qualifications part, they say you need a bachelor’s OR x amount of experience.

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).
