Hello From Southern California!

May 29th, 2013 by Karen 37 Comments

Landed in SoCal in one piece and just wanted to say a quick hello from the pool here at the resort. It’s warm here today… Maybe I’ll take a dip in the pool.

Hope you’re having a nice day so far. 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    So fun fact of the day. The location of that resort used to be a theme park when my mom grew up in PV 50 years ago. Have a great time, it’s gorgeous out there!

    All your pictures look so nice — but the bottom one makes my heart flutter. Playing with make-up poolside at a spa? Sooo dreamy!

    Love, love, LOVE PV!!! Try to go to Malaga Cove, it’s still in PV, there’s an amazing eatery called The Yellow Vase. Their RED VELVET WAFFLES are to die for!!! It’s a nice French cottage themed restaurant, I’m sure you will love it! 😀

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).
