I’m practicing avoidance right now. 🙂

I should be packing for my trip on Monday, but I’m browsing the web instead. Why? Because it’s more fun than packing, yay!

Okay, just a few more minutes… Then I’ll pack.

Question: What makeup do you like to bring when you travel?

  • 4-step flawless foundation – Bella Sugar
  • Been partying too much? Try these 10 post-party tips — Daily Makeover
  • ALERT! ALERT! Christine has MAC Love Lace swatches! — Temptalia
  • 5 fabulously inexpensive gifts for mom and baby — Raging Rouge
  • Let’s go NARS Night Clubbing! — Cosmetosaur
  • This lovely letter couldn’t have come at a better time 🙂 — Icing
  • Is it time to go gray? — Times Online
  • Everything but the harem pants… — A Cat of Impossible Colour
  • 50 quotes on living a life of adventure — Abundance Blog
  • Would you trust a friend to do your wedding makeup? — Sugar Social
  • How to make a music player for your blog or site — Leg Blog de Sushi
  • Smokey the Bear probably would not have approved of old school Christmas tree lighting — Old Christmas Lights
  • Santa, please bring me these Moleskin Diaries for Christmas — Kitty’s Drawings
  • I’m a little obsessed with Ragdolls — Of Cats

Sing it, Tom!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Hi Karen,

    Could you let me know if you have already emailed the winners of the Clarisonic? I have been checking my email obsessively.

    Thanks

      Hi Noraa,

      Yup, all the winners have been contacted, but none of them have responded to my emails yet, so there’s still a chance.

    Well, if your anything like me, I am up until 2-3 am the morning before I leave on a trip…..definatley have the “procrastination” gene.

    I am snowed in here in Delaware…we’ve got 15+ inches and are in a State of Emergency declaration in the country. My poor husband is stuck in NJ at work…..he’s been there since 8am this morning, and may be stuck there until tomorrow. I attempted to go out this morning, as I had several important errands to run….post office, bank, dry cleaner (CLOSED)….I attempted to finish Xmas shopping, but the stores at the shopping center closest to my house were closed….JCPenneys was open, so I got gloves for both me & the hubster and got wrapping supplies at Hallmark and Staples. A trip that would have normally taken me an hour, took THREE. I spent the rest of the day wrapping presents and napping. It’s still snowing, and expected to continue until Sunday morning…….I don’t think that a BLIZZARD was on my Xmas wish list…..

    I checked my email and did NOT have a message from you, so I hope Santa still remembers that I wanted a Clarisonic for Xmas……

    To answer your question: I always make sure that I have a neutral eye palette, so that I don’t have to take a ton of stuff. I take 2-3 lip colors and always make sure that I have some sort of lip balm with an SPF. Now that I’ve added multi-purpose beauty items to my collection, I expect that my next trip will be much easier to pack for.

    Have a wonderful trip……VERY envious that you’re going to Hawaii……can I come as your assistant? I have a new laptop and can help you with the blog while you’re relaxing with your family……LOL

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).
