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

September 28th, 2013 by Karen 383 Comments

A Makeup and Beauty Blog giveaway

Tabs the Cat Presents a Makeup and Beauty Blog Giveaway

Good morning, glory. Happy first official Caturday of fall. 🙂

Tabs loves this time of year because of the leaves falling. He’ll sit on a windowsill and just stare outside for hours watching the leaves fall. I think the constant movement of the leaves blowing in the wind drives his fine-tuned feline senses wild. Cats crave stimulus, ya know? Even when it drives them to mewl and climb the walls.

Yup, cats are weird…

In other news, I learned a valuable lesson yesterday about getting things done. It’s actually not a new lesson for me. I’ve learned it about a million times before, but I thought I’d pass it on, just in case.

Here it is: if you’re working on a project or anything that means something to you, get an early start, and don’t procrastinate, because I procrastinated yesterday, and now my project isn’t done.

It wasn’t a big deal, but I wanted to call this one company I Googled about ordering some modular wood storage shelving for my office, but I kept dillydallying. Then, when I finally gave them a call in the afternoon, their office was closed.

Because they’re on the East Coast. And I forgot about the time difference.

Grrr…

Oh, well. Guess it’ll have to wait till Monday.

Have a wonderful weekend, babe, and good luck in the giveaway. Maybe we’ll bump into each other on Twitter or Facebook today.

    I do my makeup in my bedroom too – but I shouldn’t because the lighting is terrible! I’ve learned to adjust for that, though.

    I’ve flown on a plain…at least 100 times, I’d think. We traveled a lot when I was growing up, so between that and back-and-forth from college…I can’t believe how many flights I’ve taken!

    I like doing my makeup in my bedroom by my window, which is upstairs and gets majority of the morning sunlight. And it’s easier to move my makeup back and forth with the least amount of damage. I don’t have a vanity, just a medium-sized plastic drawer container thingy that I think I need to upgrade :>

Totally brought me back to when I was a kid and I used to eat gallons of the stuff. Hmmm….I think a trip for ice cream is in order.

    Woooo giveaway time!! I feel like I win the unique vehicle award because I have driven a marine travel lift before. When boats are too big/heavy to be hauled out of the water by trailer, you put them in a lift, where they are supported by huge straps. I have driven a 35-ton marine travel lift and have video evidence! Also, I have baked several pies, the biggest success was an apple pie with a crosshatch top and little crust heart in the middle!

My husband is usually still meditating when I need to get my makeup on, so I do it sitting down in a spare room and that works ok too. I do notice I make more mistakes with blending because the lighting stinks.

I’m an avid makeup fan and like to experiment on a daily basis. It’s because of blogs like yours, hours of YouTube tutorials, and the like that I’ve been able to do it better. Amplify, correct, la shabam! My face shape and features are fairly androgynous and forgiving as well, which suffice it to say, makes playing them up slightly more normative or digestible.

    Hiking was a success! Two high peaks in one day and only a couple of injuries for my chronically injured boy. It would have been nice to be completely injury-free, but at least it wasn’t too major. 🙂

    I’ve been obsessed with making new and exciting variations on bread pudding and custard lately. The last bread pudding involved fruitcake frozen from last Christmas, and it was AMAZING. The next one will contain crumbled, stale chocolate chip cookies. Oh, and my most recent custard involved Middle Eastern spices and thinly-sliced overripe pears I got on the clearance table at Natural Grocers for $2. Best pears I’ve ever tasted.

    I just bought Terry McMillan’s latest book last Friday to read on the train here in NYC. Can’t remember the name of the book! It is a good read though. I haven’t done makeup on a man and my favorite place to apply my makeup is on my kitchen table with my magnifying makeup mirror. I prefer rustic fruit tarts to pies except during the holidays. I make sweet potato pies and peach pies very well.

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).
