    So much great stuff there, some I will enjoy catching up on as I only found your blog in about August/September 2010.

    May I say my favourite bit is the picture of Tabs in Smashbox Masquerade? He looks very dashing.

    Best wishes to all for 2011.

    I haven’t been reading your blog long, but the MAC Venomous Villains: 101 Things You Didn’t Know article is what got me started. It was linked on another blog and I was shocked at how professional and original your blog is. But what keeps me coming back is the atmosphere. This may be a weird way to describe a blog, but its just welcoming and comfortable. It feels like dishing with your girlfriends in your jammies over Nutella pound cake and chai lattes (!) after a sleepover. (I have a vivid imagination, haha)

    Thanks so much Karen! Here is to you having a fabulous 2011 and all your dreams coming true!

    Oh, btw, here is a recipe for Nutella pound cake that is to die for.

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).
