So how was your Monday? What was your favorite part?

My day wasn’t bad, dental visit notwithstanding. Well, even that wasn’t terrible. Like I said, no injections or drills this time, yea!

And the dentist told me I might have a weird tongue. Hmm…

I had fun this afternoon playing with the new Chanel Eye Gloss Quad. I’ll post a full review tomorrow, but what struck me today was how much the colors ramp up the intensity of powder eyeshadows. Way cool.

Have a great night.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. I’m drinking red wine and watching True Blood Season 1 on DVD. Good times. 🙂

    I really dislike going to the dentist however I found one who rocks. She is so nice and so is her staff and they make me feel at ease. Her office is right across from Union Square on the 5th floor so while there, you can people watch from the dentist chair. Not bad… lol

    Enjoy True Blood! I just rewatched the latest episode of season 2. So hooked!

      Hi Marisol,

      I am enjoying both the books and the show so far. I think that I need to stop watching it before I go to bed, though. Last night I dreamt that my BFF’s and I visited Fangtasia. Totally weird!

    ooh how are you liking True Blood? It’s such a great show I think, doesn’t it feel like if vampires were real, it would totally go down exactly the way the show portrays it??

    I’m with you Marisol, the latest episode of Season 2 was great! I hate having to wait a whole week to watch the next episode 🙁

    oh and I added you, Karen, on Twitter, I think I even tweeted you!(check in the side bar under “@Karenmbb” to see it if you haven’t already!) My twitter is hafuusa. Don’t you just love how you can connect through your blog and twitter? I love using twitter in conjunction with my photo blog 🙂

      Hi Hafsa,

      Seriously, thanks for that. I didn’t realize I could check the tweets there. Yay! I love learning about new technology.

      I just finished the third and fourth ep of the first season. I gotta say… Bill is way cooler than Edward from Twilight. 🙂

    Hafsa – especially after we had to wait two weeks. I am a total addict. It really is the only show that I look forward to lately since TV during the summer isn’t that exciting. Are you Team Bill or Eric? (This isn’t spoiling it for you at all Karen). I am Team Eric <3

      Hi Marisol,

      Last night I watched the ep. where they visit Fangtasia (ha!) for the first time. Eric wasn’t at all how I’d pictured him!

      Hi Glosslizard,

      It was a ton of fun. 🙂 I dunno what I’m going to do when we finish season one. I guess I’ll have to find a friend that has HBO, ha!

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).
