Saturday Surfing, December 28th, 2019

Have a delicious weekend!

Hi, friend. 😀 Happy last Saturday Surfing of the decade.

THE DECADE.

Crazy, right?

You know what else is crazy? How delicious these Harry & David Pears are! 🍐 TJ’s had them in gift boxes for the holidays, and I bought one for Christmas. They’re juicy and sweet, and they taste like biting into a cotton candy grape that makes your eyes roll back in your head in sheer ecstasy… I think we’ll have them with our toast for breakfast this morning, yum! Grab a box before they disappear, because if you don’t, I will. LOL!

Man, Trader Joe’s… I love that place.

Now, onto this weekend’s reading…

  • Dolly Parton is so determined to never, ever be seen without her face paint that she even sleeps with makeup on! Now that’s dedication.
  • Note to self: I will be making these pizza cupcakes ASAP. 🍕🧁
  • Y’all need to talk some sense into me please, because I can’t get doing this upcoming Spartan Super Race outta my head. It’s June in Monterey and involves running a 10K *and* doing 25 obstacles. On that note, here are 10 hair products to try if you work out often. LOL!
  • From how-tos to makeup hauls, here’s a (short) history of the last decade of beauty on YouTube.
  • Just in case you were unaware, dyed armpit hair is a thing.
  • These products at Sephora — all under $25 each — will give you the no-makeup makeup look.
  • How this young woman dealt with the hair loss caused by chemotherapy.
  • Beware of skin-lightening creams. ⚠️


Next braiding adventure: waterfall braids


Could these 12 habits change your life?


TOO GOOD


The Coywolf and I in a couple years

The doughnuts look good, but let’s get real… I’m mostly watching for the cat.

Have a wonderful last weekend of 2019, sweet girl. 🎈

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    The Spartan? Who are you and what have you done with our beauty queen??? I don’t think this ironman shiz would happen if you were still employed by Tabs Industries!

    So many things to comment on:
    Dyed armpit hair? Thank you for an image I’ll never erase from mah brain.

    Love me some Lauryn Hill. This reminds me I don’t think I have any on my playlists.

    50 Cent–Have you watched that show he created? Power? It’s quite soapy so I can’t look away. It’s on Hulu and maybe wrapping up the last season on Starz or Showtime??? I think I’m on season 3.

    Habit guy was interesting. Some of those are just not something I would ever try. Like 30 days of cold showers? Life’s too short man. Also, I live in Maine. Life’s too cold October to May. I would recommend meditating every day though. That can make life easier.

    Happy Caturday! I’ve sent Harry & David pears as gifts, but I’ll have to try them for myself.

    Interesting article about YouTube I do follow beauty channels but lately I’ve stumbled into cleaning videos. It’s strangely fascinating to see how other people clean their homes!

    Hope you have a great weekend!

    I cannot get the hang of waterfall braids. Dutch braid, French braids, lace braids are fine, but waterfall braids are hard.

    I want a pizza cupcake! Yum! 🤤

    I can’t stand most Beautubers to be honest… the article on the past decade in beauty YouTube was great.

    OK, I’m talking sense into you: if you can’t the Spartan race out of your mind, maybe that’s a sign that you need to do it. Because I totally think you can.

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).
