Santa leaves you a food-scented holiday candle. ? Would you rather have one with notes of candy cane, gingerbread cookie or hot cocoa?
Gingerbread cookie…preferably more ginger and less cookie.
What would you rather find under the tree ? — a Sephora gift card or an Ulta gift card?
ULTA!
Favorite skin care brand or an advent calendar with polishes from your favorite nail brand?
Ooh — wait! A nail polish calendar would be fun. Plus, I could share the polishes with Coycoy and Rosie.
Cozy robe with matching slippers or cozy baggy sweats?
The cozy, baggy sweats please.
Which gift would be more thrilling — laser hair remova,l or microblading for your brows?
Yikes, both sound like they’d hurt…so neither? LOL!
I guess I’ll go with microblading. I’d add a few hairs to the tail of my right brow, and that’s it.
What would you rather find in your stocking — your favorite mascara or a tube of your favorite lip balm?
I’ll take a tube of either Laura Mercier Caviar Mascara or Chanel Dimensions Mascara.
Silver pedi or gold pedi?
A cool-toned glittery gold would be nice.
Red eyeshadow or green eyeshadow?
Believe it or not, I had to pause on this one because I don’t mind red eyeshadow, but green is overall so much easier for me, so I’ll go with an olive green.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen ?
Tatiana says
Oooh! I love when you do “This or That”
Santa leaves you a food-scented holiday candle. ? Would you rather have one with notes of candy cane, gingerbread cookie or hot cocoa? Gingerbread. Like you less cookie and more spice.
What would you rather find under the tree ? — a Sephora gift card or an Ulta gift card? Sephora I think. Although I feel like Ulta carries more hair care.
Favorite skin care brand or an advent calendar with polishes from your favorite nail brand? Favorite skin care. I have enough polish to last many lifetimes.
Cozy robe with matching slippers or cozy, baggy sweats? Cozy robe and slippers. My feet get cold! and I never wear sweats.
Which gift would be more thrilling — laser hair removal, or microblading for your brows? Neither. I heard that laser hair removal works best on dark hairs and all the ones I want removed are gray these days. And microblading? Thanks but I got Dad’s bushy brows, lol. So maybe some threading instead.
Which would you rather find in your stocking — your favorite mascara or a tube of your favorite lip balm? Tough one. I guess mascara.
Silver pedi or gold pedi? Another tough one, but I’ll go with gold.
Red eyeshadow or green eyeshadow? Green! Maybe a deep forest green with a golden undertone. Allergic to many red pigments and they make me look horrible anyway.

Cozy robe with matching slippers or cozy, baggy sweats? Robe. I’ve never worn sweats in my life and even tho it’s (still) 2020, I don’t intend to start now.
Matching your makeup to your ugly Christmas sweaters — yay or nay? If I was trying to look “normal”, not matching. Then maybe people would think I was attacked by the ugly sweater and couldn’t fight it off. Otherwise matching so that it would look like I wore the ugly sweater deliberately.
