Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 630

June 8th, 2020 by Karen 23 Comments

So…what is the Monday Poll?

Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of five more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a good start. 🌻

Hi, my friend. As I’m sure you’re aware, because you’re probably living it and seeing it like I am, there’s a great deal of uncertainty and unrest around us in the world right now. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, angry, saddened, off-kilter and/or concerned about the future, you are not alone.

Every day, I try to do something to brighten the world around me a little. Sometimes it’s nothing. Maybe one extra smile or a compliment to a neighbor, but I feel like every gesture gives a little nudge in a positive direction.

I’ve always liked to think that the silly questions in the Monday Poll spread some positive energy, and I hope they brighten your day a little. This is installment #630, which is incredible!

Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Please remember, you’re doing great. Hang in there, OK?

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?

    Curling iron — large barrel, preferably by GHD (they’re $$$ but so good).

    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?

    Hand cream. Hands down.

    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?

    Crop tops, because capri pants and I don’t mix (lesson learned the hard way).

    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?

    HECK YEAH. The worst was in the last apartment I lived in. It took forever for the poor maintenance guy to get through the pipe, and when he was finally able to, he pulled out a massive ball of hair.

    I was strongly encouraged to purchase a hair trap after that…

    5. Low, middle or high bun?

    High bun. The messier, the better.

    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?

    It’s been over a year… I need to serious choppity-chop-chop! I’ll probably end up with a lob, and I know I’ll regret it immediately afterward and start growing my hair again, ha ha ha!

    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?

    Colorful brows.

    8. High pony or sleek french twist?

    High pony! (Fewer hair pins.)

    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?

    THIS IS TOUGH… Lipstick.

    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?

    Eyeshadow

    11. Lip stain or eyeliner?

    Eyeliner

    2. Scrunchie or hand cream? Hand cream.
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life? Ugh, with my body, neither. But if I have to chose capris, because I am NOT showing my belly.
    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair? Constantly. And since it’s my hair clogging the shower drain, it’s my job to clear it out.
    5. Low, middle or high bun? If my hair was long and thick enough for a bun (it’s getting there) I’d opt for a middle bun.

    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick? Brows
    8. High pony or sleek french twist? High pony, I’m not sure I could pull off the elegance of a french twist.
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life? Gah! Now you’re just teasing me, because I’d want both. But if I had to chose I’d say free lipstick.
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow? Eyeshadow!
    11. Lip stain or eyeliner? Eyeliner! I feel like with a mask covering my nose and mouth, it’s time to up the eye makeup skills.
    Dear Husband is leaving to go camping tomorrow. I have four full days of not having to cook or clean up after. I’m going to try and do some döstädning. Need to get rid of years of accumulation in this house.
    Hope you have a good week!

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?
    Neither. I have super curly hair. However, in high school the curling iron was used because well it was the 90’s HAHA!
    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?
    Hand cream. I love hand cream and especially with having to wash our hands so much!
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    hmmmm well capri pants are normal length on me, so I guess a crop top.

    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?
    Oh my gosh yes! I have so much hair and I shed, you’d think a small dog had crawled into the shower! And the apartment experience you mentioned, yeah I’ve been there more than once, ha!

    5. Low, middle or high bun?
    Middle-ish and the messier the better. I have not mastered a high bun yet.

    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?
    Salons actually opened up in my city (with very strict safety guidelines, we all wore masks, etc) and so I cut a good 4 1/2 inches off, my hair was super long. Now it’s at my shoulders.
    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?
    Green lipstick just because it would be fun
    8. High pony or sleek french twist?
    Can I say a french super messy twist with a clip? High ponies hurt my head.
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?
    ooooooooo wow that’s a hard one! um nail polish, yeah polish!

    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?

    As I hope you realize, your little gestures online — like publishing the Monday polls — mean so much! Keep being the considerate, beautiful person that I’m sure Connor Claire, El Hubs, PGR, and even Tabs, are so proud of. 🙂

    My answers are weird today and you’ll see why:

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?
    Imma say hot rollers! It’s been a long minute since I’ve used them but I loved my jumbo Conair rollers.

    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?
    Scrunchie (although I don’t own any, nor have I worn any in decades).

    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    Crop tops; capris are just not comfy (but I’m wearing a pair right now wth).

    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?
    Two words: HAIR SCULPTURE. Sometimes hubby finds ’em, sometimes I remember to throw them away. But yeah, those nasty hair clogs are the stuff of nightmares.

    5. Low, middle or high bun?
    High & messy.

    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?
    I get a birthday haircut and a New Year’s haircut. For birthday (July), I’m getting textured layers with same-length perimeter and curtain bangs. Been collecting pictures since New Year’s haircut.

    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?
    I was just thinking how awesome it would be to do aqua-colored brows!

    8. High pony or sleek french twist?
    High pony.

    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?
    Free lipstick. And did you see that special MAC is having: 7 products for $63???? They got a ton of lipsticks in the offering.

    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?
    I JUST started using bronzer, so bronzer. And I could also wear as eyeshadow.

    11. Lip stain or eyeliner?
    Ooohhh….. eyeliner forever!

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron? Neither. I’m all thumbs with such tools!

    2. Scrunchie or hand cream? BOTH. Each is a necessity. Scrunchies hold my thick hair and are much gentler. I only wear them at night though. And I cannot go without hand cream. Have it in my purse. At work. By my bed. Cannot be without either!

    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    Which one is less unflattering? I feel like capris are a better option!

    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair? Of course. I’m constantly picking up hair. My daughter and I both have thick, long hair. I’ve unclogged a drain or two in my life!

    5. Low, middle or high bun? All three depending how I feel or my hair is behaving!

    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do? I don’t know. I’m not really thinking of haircuts with a deadly pandemic and even if I were, it will be ages before I can get in. When I do I will be to thin it out and add layers. Cut my bangs. As usual!

    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick? Colorful brows. Some makeup just shouldn’t be green imo!

    8. High pony or sleek french twist? Ponytail

    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life? Free lipstick. I don’t wear nail polish usually!

    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow? Both? I really love bronzer. Cannot be without eyeshadow. Ok, eyeshadow I guess!

    11. Lip stain or eyeliner? Eyeliner

    Hi Karen!

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?
    I have never used neither, but a curling iron seems to be easier.

    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?
    Hand cream, my hands can get painfully dry.

    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    I mean, I can use something under the crop top and would look better than something under the capri if it’s cold.

    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?
    I was doing that in Germany, I was terrified with amount of hair I left in the shower.

    5. Low, middle or high bun?
    High bun all the way.

    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?
    I’m debating between cutting it again or letting it grow and just go to get it shaped.

    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?
    Brows.

    8. High pony or sleek french twist?
    High pony, I don’t consider myself capable of a french twist.

    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?
    Free lipstick.
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?
    Eyeshadow, in the end it can be used as bronzer.

    11. Lip stain or eyeliner?
    Eyeliner is more useful.

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron? Neither, my hair is naturally curly.
    2. Scrunchie or hand cream? Hand cream, particularly in the wintertime.
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life? Ugh, both bad choices for me, but I’d have to go with capri pants.
    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair? Oh, many times. We run through a lot of Drano at our house and that’s with me trying to keep hair out of the drain.
    5. Low, middle or high bun? Any if I’m at home. If I wear a bun when I got out, a lot of the time I split my hair in two (top and bottom) and make two, held in place with spin pins.
    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do? Got a haircut last week, really just a trim as I’m still growing it out. It takes forever since my hair gets curlier as it gets longer.
    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick? Probably colorful brows.
    8. High pony or sleek french twist? High pony.
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life? I don’t wear much of either anymore, but I’d have to go with lipstick and do a Scrooge McDuck dive into Tom Ford lipsticks.
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow? Eye shadow. I’ve never used bronzer.
    11. Lip stain or eyeliner? Lip stain.

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron? Curling iron, though I use both!
    2. Scrunchie or hand cream? Hand cream because my hands are so dry as of late.
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life? Both!
    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair? I still do! It’s terrible!
    5. Low, middle or high bun? High as the sky!
    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do? Just a trim because I chopped off an inch! I want to get a “lob” (long bob) eventually.
    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick? Oh my… neither? (I’m getting old.) Lips, if I had to pick one.
    8. High pony or sleek french twist? High pony.
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life? Free nail polish, please!
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow? Eyeshadow, though I’ve just started getting into bronzer. (I’m pale and it’s difficult to find a nice one.)
    11. Lip stain or eyeliner? Eyeliner always!

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?
    Let’s try hot rollers!
    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?
    Hand cream is a necessity with all this extra scrubbing and sanitizing.
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    Okay. What a horrible decision. Capri pants. I’m short so they’re always slightly longer on me anyway. Flaunt those cankles!
    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?
    Yes, and then used Zip-It drain cleaner and Liquid Plumr. On my birthday. It was a special day!
    5. Low, middle or high bun?
    High bun in the sun.
    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?
    Actually just a trim. I’m low maintenance with the hair. I usually trim my own bangs, and do any color or highlights at home.
    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?
    Green lipstick under my face mask!
    8. High pony or sleek french twist?
    French twist, but only in the laziest way possible.
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?
    Free lipstick.
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?
    Eyeshadow. Pale girl eschews the bronzer.
    11. Lip stain or eyeliner?
    Eyeliner. Lip stains can be so drying.

    1. Hot rollers or a curling iron?
    Probably hot rollers, although I prefer the non-heated flexible rods from Goody.
    2. Scrunchie or hand cream?
    Scrunchie.
    3. Would you rather wear crop tops for the rest of your life, or wear capri pants for the rest of your life?
    Capri pants. I have enough excess belly fat that I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing a crop top.
    4. Have you ever clogged the shower drain with your hair?
    I don’t remember doing that. I had really long (like, it’s never been that long since!) hair when I was little, though, so maybe I clogged the drain then and don’t remember it?
    5. Low, middle or high bun?
    Low with long hair, medium with some bobs.
    6. When you get your hair cut next (whenever that is!), what style are you going to do?
    Actually, Ohio salons are open with safety restrictions, so I might be able to get my hair cut fairly soon! I’ll keep my bangs, but I want a chin-length bob with texturized ends and one face-framing piece on each side chopped at the cheekbones. On season 9 of Law & Order: SVU, Mariska Hargitay started out the season with a pixie, but it’d grown out to my next cut by the second half of the season (the episode where Robin Williams guest-starred is the best example).
    7. Colorful brows or green lipstick?
    Colorful brows.
    8. High pony or sleek french twist?
    French twist. Every time I try to do a high pony, it always falls down to medium-but interestingly enough, a medium pony doesn’t fall!
    9. Would you rather have free lipstick or free nail polish for the rest of your life?
    Free lipstick. I don’t paint my nails because I don’t have the patience to wait for them to dry.
    10. Bronzer or eyeshadow?
    Eyeshadow.
    11. Lip stain or eyeliner?
    Eyeliner-lip stains are too sheer for me.

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).
