“Meow” and happy Caturday! Shout-out to my 🐱❤️ kitty love, my number one, my “eldest child,” forever and ever my darling, Tabs the cat, because I know he’s going to need some extra TLC today, because it’s Connor Claire’s third 🎂 birthday. They get extremely jealous of each other, as many siblings do, so whenever she gets a little more attention, he acts out. So someone’s getting extra gravy and lurvies this morning.
I got up early this morning to finish some last-minute birthday prep things, namely putting the finishing touches on the annual birthday lasagna, picking up the cake, getting some balloons, frosting some gluten-free cupcakes, and carrying this cat around like a newborn baby so he can have the reassurance he needs, LOL! #dontjudgeimacatladytoo
Now, please enjoy your weekend beauty (and cat) reading…
- Some people are Team Oxford Comma, and some people are not. (FYI, I belong to the latter, in case you were wondering.)
- Are cats really psychopaths, or do they just suffer from “resting cat face”?
- A former NASA employee and cat dad to seven kitties is raising money to 🚀 launch the remains of his deceased cat, Pikachu, into space. RIP, Pikachu. May you travel among the stars someday…
- According to some (read: NOT TABS), Lil Bub is the Internet’s most famous cat…and now thanks to an $8,000 crowdfunding effort, Lil Bub’s genome has been sequenced for posterity. Gooooo science!
- The best in makeup and hair from Paris Fashion Week, according to Allure.
- SAY WHAT? My makeup spirit animal, Sir John, otherwise know as Beyoncé’s go-to guy, is launching his own line.
- —> Drugstore foundations makeup artists swear by…
- Who is this guy? I’m not sure who Ezra Miller is (Siri, remind me to Google him), but he’s rocking that red lipstick like nobody’s business.
- Anybody try this nail polish brand before: J. Hannah? The colors are muted but look pretty cool. I think I need Blue Nudes and Artichoke.
- Sephora’s expanding their in-house brand skin care for the Sephora Collection.
If I could, I’d dress and do my hair like Gwen Stefani’s character in this video 24/7. I ❤️ the makeup and the styling so much.
Another old fave…
And now, a new fave!
Need to try this ASAP. Also, isn’t the lighting in this video gorgeous?
If ya want, I’ll save a treat for you. Would you rather have a slice of the strawberry birthday shortcake, or one of the gluten-free vanilla muffins?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

March 2nd, 2019 at 8:39 amEzra Miller is the adorable dork in Dawn of Justice (he’s the Flash, and he’s the one who catches the Bat…err…ninja star lol). He’s also in We need to Talk About Kevin with Tilda Swinton (I haven’t seen that but it’s on my list). He’s been in other stuff I’m sure (my sis just chimed in that he’s in The Perks of Being a Wallflower and in one of the Fantastic Beasts movies). I love his bone structure. For me, the only guy who can pull off red lipstick will always be Robert Smith and no other. 🙂

March 2nd, 2019 at 1:18 pmHappy birthday to Connor Claire! I can’t believe she is 3 years old!
So tonight we are taking Zack and his two besties for Brazilian BBQ for his 18th! I am letting my carnevore out!
Hope all is well!

March 2nd, 2019 at 1:22 pmHappy Birthday Connor Claire! I can’t believe she is 3 years old. Enjoy it.
So tonight we are treating Zack and his two besties to Brazilian BBQ for his 18th birthday. He got his permanent license this morning and we are letting our “carnevore” out tonight!
Be well.

Why do so many of those Fashion Week models look like they’re dead? Ridiculous.
That’s exciting news about the Sephora Brand skincare products. Their brand is sometimes great, sometimes not, but I’ll totally try it out at that price.
Pictures of a cake-faced three-year-old, please!!! 😊

March 2nd, 2019 at 3:20 pmEzra Miller is exactly the kind of guy I would have been into as a young Chelsea and his bone structure is just incredible.
Happy birthday Connor Claire! I can’t believe she’s three 😮 I’m glad you’re giving Tabs some extra lurvies. Does he like lasagna?
We went to go check in on our friend’s cat Paul while he was out of town – Paul is a very sweet tuxedo kitty girl who I love very much. Her belly is very soft and she makes cute tiny meows.

March 4th, 2019 at 9:37 amHappy belated Birthday to Connor!!! I hope you saved me a slice of lasagna. 🙂 Let’s not tell El Hub that you didn’t know who Ezra was (cough.. the Flash.. cough). HAHA! Gwen is always gorgeous – I’d take any of her looks, any day. And, I’m with you on the Oxford comma; in the middle ages, when I was young, we were NOT taught that it was a choice. We didn’t use the comma – period! I might make an exception for a sentence like their example. I don’t like PB&J, so PB&J&cream cheese sounds really bad. 😉

March 11th, 2019 at 12:50 pmWow at the Sir John makeup line! I wish we’d Woolworth’s here but there’s always eBay or asking international friends to do pick ups if the items are non-fragile. 🙂
