Hello, my fair lady! I hope you slept well last night. For once I got a great night’s sleep (it’s a Christmas miracle), so I’m feeling pretty good. Actually, I was sleeping so well, in fact, that I probably wouldn’t have gotten out of bed if it weren’t for one husky tabby cat.
Don’t let those sweet eyes fool you. Every morning, Tabs is hell bent on two things: 1) lurvies and 2) gravy. If I don’t provide both within a narrow time frame, he punishes me by using my bladder, which is usually filled to the brim first thing in the morning (sorry, TMI, I know!), as a springboard. Repeatedly.
Speaking of launching things…let’s kick off the weekend with a giveaway. 🙂

Hi Karen, hope you have a great weekend!! 😀
It’s incredibly cliche.. but I’m 101% addicted to Chanel’s “Boy” & NARS “Angelika.” It kinda stinks that neither are very long lasting.. but I’ve been stuck on them ever since ♥
Your question about lip products in my purse sent me scrambling to check my cosmetic bag: seven MAC LipGlasses, one carmex, one chap stick (cherry!) and an old school Bobbi Brown lip tint. I think it’s time for some spring cleaning.

I got roughly 3.5 hours of sleep last night so pretty much everything I can think of right now is how much I miss my bed even though I take it for granted when I have it lol oh, and to keep it makeup related, I just recently developed a crazy obsession for blushes (I didn’t wear any blush about two months ago and owned only like 3 drugstore ones). I’m now buying every popular blush out there. Yesterday I got Giggly from Quite Cute which is what I’m wearing right now and I’m loving it!
Happy Saturday! It’s dreary, rainy and cold this a.m. A Sephora gift card sure would brighten things up! 🙂
I love Sephora!

Hi!
Have you tried Rawtella? It’s supposed to be a gourmet version of Nutella….it’s not as creamy since it doesn’t have the emulsifiers, but if you pop it into the microwave for a few seconds it’s just as great!

My dachshund has the funniest habit of taking her blanket and spinning it into a complete circle before she curls up in it. Sometimes it can take quite a long time to get it right and she’ll keep arranging it and arranging it with her paws before she curls up. We call it “making her nest” which is exactly what it looks like!
Lip Products with me : Lancome Juicy Tubes and MAC Prrr Lipglass….Meow !!!

hi karen,
I am thrilled and so proud that one of the most followed bloggers is a Filipino. You are beautiful and talented. I always read your blog and it is interesting to discover new products to try for a Filipino like me. you have great suggestions and reading your blog makes me want to rush to the nearest store and try it myself. thank you for the inspiration 🙂
Finally a taste of spring this weekend!!! I have way too many lipstick/lip glosses in my handbag, but I love them all : )

Anyway nice meetin ya (sort of lol) and good luck everyone!!!

My cat used to wake me up at the crack of dawn by sitting next to my head and staring at me. It’s very unnerving to wake up to an 18 pound tom an inch from your eyes. And if that didn’t work, he’d start licking my eyelids. That got me up every time.
I have this gorgeous Pure Lip Color from Estee Lauder — Passion Berry Sparkle. Gorgeous shimmer that I just can’t have enough of.
Good morning ! Hope you have great weekend. And i am really loving your site.
You are awesome.
When I take a shower my cat Miso crys/meows… I believe he thinks I’m drowning.
Can’t wait to finish reading ‘how to be a hepburn in a hilton world’!
I wish the weather would make up it’s mind. One day it’s sunny and warm out. The next day, it’s in the 30’s. Come on Spring!!!! I’m ready for the warm weather.
I have korres lip gloss right now. I LOVE IT!!! Especially since it’s a natural product…LOVE IT!!!

Hi Karen, a coworker of mine introduced me to your blog yesterday and OMG–I’m already addicted! I, like you, am ob-sessed! with beauty products. I actually just started my own girly-girl blog recently, and I’m having a blast so far! Thanks for all the great tips, tricks, and reviews. Glad to know there are others with the same addiction…..”Hi, my name’s Cassie, and I’m a makeup-aholic.” : )
Bobbi Brown Crystal Lipgloss — super sticky and shiny!
I always carry a Chanel lipgloss in my purse, but I also carry La Mer lip balm and Origin’s Lip Remedy.
I didn’t see the new bronzer collection on MAC (whilst I heard it would be out by April 4th online) but luckily when I searched for Give Me Sun! it came up 😀

I hauled some more Bobbi Brown stuff this weekend!
I have a busy weekend ahead – I hope you enjoy yours! 🙂
Hi!! My cat has the weirdest habbit./ritual every time I take a shower, she waits on the sink counter for me to get out, when I do, her tail fluffs up huge! she cries until I get near her , then she stands on her hind legs, front paws on my shoulders and she licks my forehead! soooo weird!
The Buffalo Sabres clinched a playoff spot last night! LET’S GO BUFFALO!!
Hi Karen, I was just reflecting on the fact that I have been a regular reader of your blog for 3 years now. Crazy! Time really flies! I hope everything is well with you!
It’s too hot here in OK for Spring!
I have 2 many lipsticks in my purse 2 name! I would like to purchase Mac modesty though.
My cat sniffs my face til I wake up
Enjoying an absolutely relaxing bath while checking twitter! Haha!
My little kitty says hello to Tabs, and to you as well 🙂
i just got done working out
Cats are soo funny, my best friend’s cat will beg for ice. If you’re at the Fridge getting ice, she’ll come running
Thank goodness the weekend is here!
I have Revlon’s “Siren” lipstick in my purse. It’s a retro melon shade!

Love the picture of Tabs!
My cat has a lot of quirks, but luckily he is quiet in the morning until he knows that I am awake. Then he has no mercy. But if I keep my eyes shut and don’t move around too much, he won’t realize I’m awake so I can lay in bed for a little longer.
If my dear sweet pup wasn’t so big, I know he’d be all up on my bed, jumping on me to get up! As it is, I get a massive, cold, wet nose in the face until I sit up and say good morning!

My cat loves to play fetch 🙂
i hit my head on the car door yesterday….it hurts so much and now there’s a huge bump and it’s bruised… 🙁
Happy Saturday!
I really need to get out of bed and go to the gym, but it’s so hard!
Hope your day is going great!
I have an automatic feeder for my cat – it definitely helps keep the peace in the morning!
My cats are nothing if not a collection of weird habits. My recent favorite is that during my stomach flu a couple weeks ago, Merv the sphynx took to riding on my shoulders and investigating while I was in the middle of Being Ill. I would have to flail around to grab at a paw and launch him off my back every time until he got the hint, but when he finally did give up on supervision he hopped over and PEED IN THE BATHTUB. And apparently he liked it because he HASN’T STOPPED SINCE! >< I'm going to try to turn lemons into lemonade and toilet train him but still: sheesh!
Thanks for the contest, hope everyone has a great weekend!
Happy Saturday!!!! I’m in a really good mood today hope everyone has a wonderful weekend 🙂
The weather is great here! I got out and sucked up as much sun as I could! It is heaven!!!
On a completely different note, about 3 months ago, I sent you an email, and it was in Comic Sans, and I am so sorry I didnt know you hated it 🙁 I felt so bad when I found out!

It snowed here yesterday! Blah! I could definitely use this to get some new spring makeup.
I don’t wear lip stuff, it feels so artificial that I can’t get over it. Although I may pick up some Urban Decay lip pencils, I imagine those would be less… textural.
Aww, it’s always nice to see pictures of Tabs. Have a great Saturday!
my best friend is performing in little shop of horrors and i’m going to see her again tonight! so much fun!
Good Morning! I found a long lost lipstick in my purse, Sue Devitt Hollywood. I love that color.
I am really want to try out some fun new makeup looks for Spring! Please, where is the warm weather and sun??

Love your blog, and makeup tips. Looking forward to try the smashbox bronzer
Im looking for a contour/bronzer to help out my NC35 and sometimes NC40 skin! I’m trying Blunt Blush, but I’m not liking it a lot. Does anyone have any suggestions? =]
ive been loving my mac prolongwear foundation!! 😀 thanks for this!
Need. New. Mascara!!!
Who knows how to cook leeks?
Something I’m loving right now, is Sephora’s Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover. I was very surprised with this product. It’s a non-greasy formula; which is important to me because I wear contacts and hate that greasy feel on my eyes. It’s like having Vaseline on your eyes (don’t ask LOL). The small bottle is $5, with the larger coming in at $8. Not a bad deal.:-)
My cats have always been afraid to walk on my stomach/chest. Its very strange. They walk on my husbands just fine. It kinda hurts my feelings!
Unfortunately, my first pet passed away last January after 13 years with me. He was my first pet. I got him as soon as I moved out of my parents house. It was really hard for me to get over. He was to me what Tabs is to you. Just that very special animal who will always hold that place in your heart. His strange/cool thing is that he used to play fetch. It was so cool! Well, except for the fact that I had to hide any hair ties or he would claim them as his own! 🙂
My 2nd cat is a prissy, beautiful Ragdoll. She has always been sick so she doesn’t really have any quirkiness to her. (She was sick as a kitten and got chronic renal failure at age 4, she is now 10).
My 3rd cat was a foster that I couldn’t give up. She has a ton of quirks! First off, she will eat anything! (Well except tofu and tilapia.) She loves cake and anything carby. She is also a thief. She was a feral kitten so its probably a survival instinct for her. She will grab things and just run off with them. The most bizarre things too! Those little green stirrer/stopper things that go into the top of a Starbucks cup, plastic wear, really anything she can carry off and even sometimes stuff that is too heavy for her. Its adorable and annoying all at the same time!
Our current 4th cat is a foster who came to the animal shelter that I work at with a wound of unknown origin, so he had to have a 6 month rabies quarantine. He has a lot of quirks! When we first brought him home, he was scared of carpet! He would not walk on it. He was also a feral kitten and really skilled at survival. I am scared of the day when we find where these two cats hide things that they steal.
Could you imagine a life without animals? Don’t you feel sorry for people that just don’t understand?
oh em gee somebody please let the sun out :-\ but the only thing thats making me happy right now is my Korres guava body butter!!!!!!!!!
Happy caturday to tubby Tabs! (And I mean tubby in best possible way, no need to lay off the gravy).
I am currently loving Korres Mango butter lipsticks, they truly are like buttah.
I keep hoping Benefit will release some new palettes soon! 🙂
right now i have a couple of korres lip butters (jasmin and guava), mac lipstick in pretty please, and some vaseline lip therapy (my favorite chapstick)! have a great weekend!
The kittehs let me sleep in (til 9 AM!), which made me suspicious. The scene in the living room told me everything I needed to know:
Catnip toys behind the couch, a delicate pile of cat-throw-up in the center of a pile of cat hair, and every throw pillow in the room “re-arranged”.
Yup, it was a Friday night kitteh partay. Guess we’ll all be napping this afternoon!
My cat likes to wake me up in the morning by nuzzling my face until I get up and pet her.
🙂
I’m short, 5 foot 1. The best jeans are really low rise. Look great on me!
Isn’t it fun when cats use your body as a springboard? It’s like, “Hey, here’s a nice squishy spot, let’s just tramp all over it!”. No regard for your feelings. LOL.

The first time I put a collar with a bell on my cat Olivia, she went mental and would do back flips trying to get to the bell. It was hilarious!

I could hardly get out of bed this morning either, except my little doggie had other ideas and woke me up by licking my face!
Katherine recently posted … Things I learned this week
I currently have the clarins lip balm in my pocket
Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Boy – just got it and its true love!
My cat has been tearing around the house chirping all morning. She never meows properly, it’s all just chirps and squeaks. She’s the most ridiculous animal I’ve ever met.
Also, in the news of the day, I really hate UPS Mail Innovations. Who’s idea was that? How do they always manage to screw things up? Guh.
Haha, Karen, I also randomly call things a “Christmas miracle” at all times of the year. 🙂
My pet DEFINITELY does some weird things. He’s a Havapoo (1/2 Havanese, 1/2 Mini Poodle) and he stands straight up like a prairie dog for minutes at a time without moving… like a statue, lol. Its hilarious!

I’m a bit of a lip-stuff addict 🙂
Going into the city today! Hopefully I can do some nice shopping and hope the weather is good too!
I recently purchased a cat harness – – – to take the main man in my life kitty cat, Mr. Earl Morrissey for walks. It was a total bust – he likes to escape out the front door but DOES NOT like to go for walks. What gives?! lol
happy saturday!
I’m really into lipgloss these days and I’m usually just a lipstick girl. I think the new Revlon lipglosses (ColorBurst and Super Lustrous) changed my mind. Although, I still don’t wear lipgloss unless my hair is up or there’s NO wind.
Cara, my guard cat, just found a spider and kept it corralled until I noticed. Good cat! She also alerts us by going crazy if raccoons or stray cats are on our deck. Besa on the other hand just chasing flying bugs. But will hunt and destroy them. 😉
so right now I’m trying macs mattify stuff it comes in a tube like lipgloss
I hope I win this time!
Hi Karen, hope you are doing well. I will be crazy studying this weekend, but I will be done finals in two weeks! Yipee!
A nice trip to sephora is just what the doctor ordered!
My cat insists on sleeping on top of me. He also won’t leave my bedroom in the morning until I do.
Love your blog! You give the best tips and reviews(:
I could def use this seeing as I got my code for VIB 15% off next week.
Dior Addict and Revlon Colorburst lipglosses (which have pushed aside my highend lipglosses…except NARS).
I’ve been loving Katy Perry’s makeup in her E.T music video!

Lady Zeal is a quirk queen and it’s seems she acquires more as she gets older. When we got her at 6 months, she could already play fetch (something I couldn’t teach three dogs to do) with hr favorite toys, tinsel pom poms and the bigger the better. She also talks to her pom poms, when she’s playing with them, carrying them (I tell her not to talk with her mouth full), or when she’s stalking them. After years of thinking she wouldn’t or couldn’t catch mice, she has a few times now, and she talks to the mice too. The story of her catching mice is hysterical.
Her other really funny quirk is that she doesn’t like when I go out. I go out very infrequently, but she seems to know when I’m going to and starts acting all cute to keep me home. She lays in the bathroom with her belly showing, something she doesn’t do anywhere else. She also jumps into the tub and prances around, maybe so I won’t turn on the water. As I’m getting ready, she acts more cranky & aloof, but when I get home she’s thrilled. Actually, I don’t think she likes it when ever go in the bathroom, since she’s always coming in to watch me, like I’m going to jump in the shower & then take off. It’s weird having your cat always watch you pee. I tell her I’m a big girl and can pee all by myself, but so far she doesn’t care.
Thanks for the giveaway.
I can’t live without pout lipgloss from smashbox in my purse. It’s the color that goes with everything 🙂
I have Revlon Matte Lipstick, Revlon ColorBurst, Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick and Lip Gloss.
My Main Coon tap dances on me to get me up. He is my alarm clock. 🙂
I’ve been using Alba’s coconut lip balm a lot lately since everything was irritating my lips for about a three week period.

Soo many lip products! Carmex, MAC lip balm in a pot, Viva Glam V gloss and lipstick, MAC wildly lush plushglass, MAC Angel. My basic work lippies 🙂
I love my cat just like you love yours. 😉
I always carry a compact of MAC Blot Powder (medium dark) in my purse for getting rid of the oilies on my skin throughout the day!
I nearly die laughing when you set products on Tabs. This blog rules. You should keep doing more drugstore reviews, though!
I loveee lancome juicy tubes!!
I have a few pets, only one is at college with me, maisy my rat. She loves snacking on goldfish crackers and chocolate chips with me.
I am obsessed with MAC Cremesheens – loving Boy Bait right now!

Ooh I love these!
I currently have a Buxom lip gloss (in Amber) and Lancome Juicy Tube (Dreamsicle) in my purse. They’re such pretty colours and smell so niiiceee 🙂

can anyone recommend a good red gloss?
My family’s standard poodle has figured out how to outsmart me. Sometimes I will block his way so that he can’t get to where he’s going, or gently grab onto his tail, and instead of reacting/crying/growling he just kind of sits and waits for me to get bored of trying to bug him. And then I leave, and he gets what he wants. And this happens, every time.
I just started final exams (blegh) and winning this giveaway would be such a nice pick me up between brutal history exams!
A Victoria’s Secret lipgloss is always in my pocket! I buy them five at a time when they go on sale.
Suns finally out! Need spring/summer colors, wanting more pastel colored polishes as well!
I’ve been loving Chanel’s glossimer in “Unity” lately. I also love Chanel’s new Coco Rouge Shine in “Boy”, I’m waiting to go pick up my pre-sale in “Elise” (picked because it’s my daughter’s name). Oooh….oooh, I forgot, I also LOVE Dior’s Addict in “Rock and Roll”.
Love your blog!!! Happy weekend!
After 16 years of the same hairstyle (the Jennifer Aniston) I cut my hair… all of it. After all was said and done I cut I think 11 inches off. Crazy!!! But I love it. It has taken a while getting used to but I love it! Here’s hoping that the boyfriend like it!

She would NOT go to sleep- she was so hyper. While she didn’t snore as bad as I thought she would, she did do number 1 on our comforter! Our dog has since grown out of that stuff, so I am not used to that anymore. Now, they are playing the chase me game- the skinny dachshund mix running around at a billion miles per hour, with the chubby Rosie trying to catch him. It’s like watching “Norbert” all over again.
Lucky for her, she’s cute! Plus, my Zeus has a lot of patience.
Its pouring rain here today.. the perfect weather to lay in bed and watch grey’s anatomy re-runs and read your blog!!!

My cat’s favourite spot to sleep is on top of an empty pizza box. He likes it so much we cleaned one out to keep around for him permanently!
The lip products I have in my purse at the moment are MAC’s Ultra Darling sheen supreme lipstick, Nymphette lipglass, and Creme d’Nude lipstick. I’m in love with the new Sheen Supreme lipsticks!
Loving that it’s the weekend!
I love days where I can jut lounge in bed in my sweat pants. lol
I have Dior Addict Diorkiss in my bag right now and I love it. RT’d. <3
I can’t stop thinking about that Becca brush cleanser. Is that weird? lol.
I’m currently caught between three schools, Humboldt StateU, Fullerton or San Francisco State…any suggestions? Sigh.
I’m trying to use up my Clinique glosses to make way for summer collections!!!
Another week of a reprieve from getting furloughed by the Feds – hurray!
And I go to LA next month and am making a side trip to Newport Beach to buy some more Inglot shadows!
i’m getting my wisdom teeth out today 🙁
My cat just sits around looking pretty.
yay! I love your giveaways!
I was up at 4:30 am wishing I could sleep one night without waking up multiple times!
I can’t wait for summer!!!
My tabby wakes my up EVERY morning between 5:00 and 6:00 am. No matter how many times I shoo him off the bed he always comes back a couple of minutes later. it drives me nuts! And I’m sure contributes to the dark circles under my eyes…sheesh. He’s lucky I adore him!
almost had a full blown panic attack when i couldn’t find any of my LORAC Multiplex 3D lipglosses….they were all in the bottom of one of my purses…LOL
Went to Sephora on Wednesday and they had the Nars front row package. I am now officially obsessed with orgasm lipgloss! I wish I had gotten it long ago – it’s the perfect shade for me!
My husband and I love our cat Tuffy so very much. He is the apple of our eye! Such a fun loving personality. We are going to miss him so much on our Europe vacation next week.
I am still laughing about the intuition song !! I am going to be stuck with that all weekend ! INTUISHION !!
love ur blog! its my got to blog early morning with my cuppa. what i would love to see is u doing a series of posts on asian-indian skin and best suited products and shades for asian -indian skin!
I want to go on a mini spree! i is BROKE
Hi Karen! Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend! Good job on getting a good night’s rest! Haven’t had one of those in a while.
As for the lip products in my purse, I have Revlon’s Colorburst lipstick in Soft Nude, the older line of the Maybelline Superstay lipcolor, chapstick, Revlon’s Super Lustrous lipgloss in Peach Petal, and a softlips lip balm
Howdy,I have Vegas Volt by Mac!

I have a whole bunch of Mac glosses and lipsticks at the bottom of my purse. I throw them in there when I want to go out, and then I end up forgetting they’re there!
Also, is it just me, or is there a major baby/wedding boom going on right now? I guess that’s what happens when you’re in your mid-twenties, but I can’t check facebook without hearing about somebodies wedding or pregnancy! Its crazy that it all seems to happen at the same time.
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity! My favorite lipstick was NARS manhunt forever until yesterday when I notice it mushed up bc my niece who is 2 got to it. Hope you have a great day! Love ur blog!
I have been reaching for Rimmel Moisture Renew lipstick in “spotlight beige” so much lately…even though I am sooo not a fan of the smell. The texture of these is so great.
If my cats didn’t have quirks they would have no personality at all, LOL. Abigail is my yowling lap fungus. She sleeps under the covers with her head on my pillow. Matilda looks like a harbor seal and hides from anyone she doesn’t know. Figaro has the dog trained to obey her every command – except the one to leave and never come back! The dog does yoga better then I do, especially downward dog, but I should expect that, right?

I have been trying to get through my winter foundation before summer hits its feels like I might be too late.
I just got two new lipsticks–NYX Cocoa and Palladio Smoky Rose! Thanks for the giveaway!
I have a Revlon SL Lipgloss in my bag. They discontinued my favorite HG color, Glossy Rose! :[ I’m scraping around drugstores looking for them.
Thinking of going on a cruise…
My cat used to wake me up every morning at the same time be meowing at me. He was my furry alarm clock. He stopped once the dogs started sleeping with me…I guess they cramped his style.
My favorite lip combo right now:
1. Lip balm or Vaseline to moisturize
2. A touch of MAC Dark Side
3. Layer MAC Funbathing on top
4. Dab Bobbi Brown Shimmer Lip Gloss in #39 Golden Nectar in the center of the lower lip
Thanks for the giveaway ! Your blog is great !
Thanks for the giveaway !
go summer
I have a very strong urge to go on a huge lipstick/lipgloss spree at the moment!
In love with MAC Supreme Sheen lipstick, as per your review & swatches 🙂
The better question is what does Missy do that’s NOT weird?
I would say her weirdest thing is her insistance that we light candles every evening after dinner. She stares at the coffee table and whines LOUDLY until we light the candles. As soon as we do, she settles down next to the coffee table and takes a nap.
I can’t wait for my girlfriend’s exams to be over!
my favorite lip product EVER is jack black’s lip balm in the mint flavor.
i know it’s supposed to be for men, but it works so much better than every lip balm I have ever used (and I’ve pretty much used them all). I think I have a tube at the office, purse, home, and probably one in my car somewhere !
Lately, my dog has been jumping and barking at ANY and EVERY dog on the tv! It’s hysterical to watch.
I LOVE your giveaways, as always!
My Abyssinian cat, Dexter, plays fetch! He is also obsessed with Greek yogurt. I love that cat.

Thanks for such a thoughtful giveaway! ^^ I can’t wait till summer comes round and I can wear all the dresses and sandals I’ve been slowly ‘collecting’ haha Xx
Going out with my aunt to celebrate her birthday.
I wanted MAC’s Candy Yum Yum lipstick but it sold out a couple hours after it launched on the website. I didn’t think it would sell out that fast 🙁
Looking for a new perfume for spring!
My lipstick in my purse would be Chanel lip shine in Boy, but I left it home, because I feel like it’s too fancy to carry around. I’m funny like that.
My cat insists on sleeping around my neck like a scarf. He has gotten too big and occasionally starts to smother me.
The only lip products I usually have in my purse is my EOS lip balm. I hardly ever bother with lipstick or gloss since my lips are very pigmented and I’m lazy haha
Weird quirk: I hate getting my face wet and avoid it at all costs!
I’ve only got aquaphor in my purse right now!
My cat is so pleased when it’s bedtime that she will do the happy feet dance for about 20 minutes. She is blind, but knows it’s almost bedtime when she hears me brushing my teeth and running water in the bathroom sink. 😀
I have a great cat named Barley whose back legs are partially paralyzed and he has a tough time trying to get into a regular size litter pan without turning the whole thing over. I’ve searched for one he can get in and out of easily and FINALLY found the perfect litter pan! It’s actually a pan for PUPPIES (I suppose it’s for the little guys whose humans, for whatever reason, may find it necessary to train them that way). I found it at Petco, thanks to a very helpful manager who understood what my buddy needed. He can get in/out very easily & it sure makes for a happier kitty. If anyone has a handicapped cat who may have the same problem, please give this pan a try.
I just discovered this blog and I am already in love!!!! Beauty blogs are my new obsession and I am so glad that I found an amazing new blog to check on everyday!!
Ohhhh lip products in my purse….that’s like opening pandora’s box! I won’t name them all, but the ones in heavy rotation are Rosebud Salve, Korres lip butter (guava) and Nivea A Kiss of Smoothness (I think).
Hooray for the weekend!!!
I love Sephora!
Hi there! I am 32 weeks pregnant with twins, so the only thing I have been able to shop for in ages has been makeup. I can’t even shop shoes since I’ve been swelling up like a balloon. I’d love to win the gift card for one last Sephora hurrah before I turn into a pumpkin when the babies arrive!
My giant labrador is afraid of small dogs. Big dogs he has no fear of but he will shy away from the tiny ones–I think he has the opposite of body dysmorphic disorder and does not realize how large he really is, since he also tries to sit on my lap.
Have a great weekend Karen 🙂
Not really a jean person – I prefer skirts and dresses.
Just watched “Valentine’s Day” last night – how CUTE were Bradley Cooper and Eric Dane?!?

I can’t wait for MAC’s surf baby collection!
I love my new lip gloss by Mac ; loud & lovely it’s an awesome color for day and night. Can’t wait to try their new line of spring colors. I have the new Dior lip gloss also in my purse. It’s a pretty watermelon spring color.
Ugh I have a lot to do this weekend after a nice relaxing spring break. Algebra hw, trying to finish my nursing pre-reqs b4 next summer

I must have chapstick! Always always

I am thinking about buying some new summer clothes, instead of spending lots of money on makeupï¼LOL can’t stopping thinking about new quints, new lipsticks, new…..everyting that being swatched in your blog
In my bag right now I have NARS turkish delight 🙂 my favorite lipgloss!
I have remnants of a rimmel lipstick (discontinued) and a MAC lip lacquer (also gone the way of the dodo bird! waaah!!) in a small screw top plastic jar in my purse. Good to the last drop!!!!
I dont have a purse but a baby bag! In it I keep my Victoria’s secret beauty rush lip gloss and my eos lip balm!….love them both!
I think american eagle makes great jeans
My cat seriously acts like a dog XD she howls! what kind of cat howls!?
I was actually going to comment on my dog’s odd quirks from the moment you mentioned Tabs’ affinity for jumping on your bladder. x)
My perfectly house-trained dog of 8+ years (?) has found a new hobby: peeing on various pieces of furniture for no reason. He generally barks when he needs to do his business, but never when its one of his surprise attacks as we’ve taken to calling it. To make things worse, this generally happens in the morning when I’m putting on my makeup. I then have to leave my face half-done and admittedly scary (I don’t usually get a good night’s sleep either) to try to staunch what seems like a gallon of… well, you know. Now I really think this is TMI haha. 😀
Your sweet puppy is just aging. If you change your routine, and walk him sooner, I am sure it will help some. Bring it up to the vet next visit- it happens to humans when they get older as well….
Hi Karen!
hmmm i love my burts bees chapstick.
Annnnd my crazy cat squirrel wakes up my fiance every morning by jumping on his stomach repeatedly. She knows i wont get up, im a heavy sleeper!! 🙂

All eight of our animals have weird quirks. I think the one that surprises people the most is that all five cats like water. I have to remove one every morning from the shower. Whenever I take a bath, all five line up on the sill and take turns trying to come in with me. They’ll come and sit on my lap while I’m bathing and reading. But I could go on and on about their, and the three dogs, individual quirks.
Parasuco jeans. A must for 6ft tall ladies!
i love me some sephora
I’ve devoted this weekend to reading through the The Hunger Games trilogy. I’m about to start the third book!
Tabs and my kitty would get along swimmingly with bladder springboard chats and gravy soft spots. Although my cat had an insane love for cheese. I know, cheese. Hooray for the weekend! Thanks for doing all you do, Karen. I don’t know what we’d do without your sage beauty & care wisdom and sweet reviews! You’ve probably saved us all LOADS of $!
finals in 2 weeks… yay..
In my purse? Burt’s Bees lip balm and MAC lustre lipstick in Lustering! I’ve been eyeing those Bite lip products at Sephora, though!
I <3 your giveaways!
I sooo wish I could nab a tube of Candy Yum Yum right! I am obsessed with finding this. This needs to be in my purse asap!
I am on a beauty school budget, and only like to get cruelty free things so I was wondering if you could tell me a few options for blotting papers? Also we just got a cat named bumper and he insists on napping on my head and sniffing my hair whenever I have my sinner perfume on. Got to love our furry friends :3
my pet toad chirps at night so no one can sleep!
I’m studying for a biology test all weekend 🙁
I heart Paige premium denim jeans.
MY dog hates when I am on the computer, and wines and wines until I close the laptop!!! CRAZY!!!!!
My favorite jeans are… Target! Seriously, the 19.99 jeans. They don’t last forever, but they fit perfectly!
It’s 80 degrees out today (in indiana at least ;)! wearing my pretty sundress – I’m in HEAVEN!

I have been a bit obsessed of late with Revlon lippies. They work so well, have a great selection, and very cheap. I just picked up Fashion’s Night Pout (looks like Gaga II), and I have been putting some milage on Coral.
It’s finally getting a tiny bit warmer here in NYC (:
Lip products in the purse? I’ve got the EOS lip balm in Sweet Mint, which everyone keeps thinking is the coolest Easter egg ever! I’ve also got a few lipsticks that are the only ones I’m touching right now, trying to finish them off as part of a 10-Pan project. Revlon’s Colorstay in Sensuous Spice, L’Oreal’s Colour Juice in Chai Tea, and the perfect plum/mauve that I don’t actually want to finish because I know I’ll never find it again: Nina Ultra Pro’s Adobe.
😀 I hope I win!
Thanx for the giveaway!!! The Sephora store is new in Brazil so i hope i get this gift card!
Happy saturday, karen!
Thank you for a great giveaway!
That would be perfect funding for the Dior summer quads.!
I just ordered Chanel’s Neiman-exclusive Coco Shine, plus the summer Vernis’!
I used to have a cat named lily but she ran away 🙁 but seeing your cat makese want a new one 🙂
Hmmmm……I don’t carry a purse per se, but in my bag I’ve got the NYX lip creme in Stockholm, and Korres lip butter in Mango. Ms. B (border terrier mix) has a quirk of dreaming virtually every time she falls asleep. Her legs will move like she’s running, and she accidentally wakes herself (and sometimes us) by barking in her sleep.
Thanks for another giveaway opportunity, Karen. Hope everyone has a good weekend. 🙂
I am really loving Lancome’s Juicy Tubes right now 🙂
My dog, Mika, likes to cross her front paws when she’s sitting or lying down. She thinks she’s a “proper lady”. Everybody always laughs about it, they think it’s a trained trick.
My dog has a weird obsession for the water hose. She starts barking at it and then bites at the water. Its actually really entertaining but it gets complicated when I need to water the plants.
Two more weeks til Easter and the end of my makeup purchasing fast.
The one most important lip product in my purse: MAC Lip Erase! It erases my very pigmented lips so my lipsticks look the way they are supposed to!
My nose hurts in the bridge. Like sinus. And I’m offended that my dog doesn’t cate, she just wants my cookies.
I retweeted as pilarbelle123
I dont know but there used to be a code for free shipping… I’m actually goin to place an order now hahaa
There isn’t even a Sephora where I live! It’s a true tragedy!

I have 5 of the Kiehl’s Mango lip balms lying around the house right now! Besides smelling amazing, it makes your lips so plump and soft 🙂
I love sephora! I have had my eye on something there for the past few weeks – I am making a care package for my mom and that gift card could definitely be put to good use 🙂
I have strawberry blonde l/g right now!
I have very quirky pets. My dog has a thing about my feet. She likes to lick them and she guards them intensly. If anyone accidently touches my feet, she tries to bite them. I have one cat who only likes men. She never allows me or my daughter to touch her. My other cat cannot meow. She opens her mouth but no sound comes out. My special friend, Felix the cat is very vocal and wakes me every morning, meowing loudly at my bedroom door until I get up and feed him.
My german shepard/rottweiler mix rubs his tailbone (since there is no tail) against persons and animals that he is fond of.

My cat’s favorite snack food is popcorn- as soon as he hears the popcorn machine he starts running- he likes it flavored with butter, sugar and salt- (ghetto kettlecorn)-
I love Burt’s Bees Chapstick but every other week I use a lip scrub that Michelle Phan suggested 🙂
Hmmm…in my tote right now I have UD Lip Junkie in Midnight cowboy and Benefit’s Wild Child gloss ( totally in love with that color right now!) Very rare that I only have 2 glosses in tote, but I’ve been trying to simplify,,,if that is possible. ha

love Sephora, but unfortunately we don’t have it here in Ireland!!
LOL Tabs using your bladder as a springboard! Mine likes to walk over my chest…ouch. Happy weekend!
The only lip product in my purse is a ganache for lips lip balm in chocolate marzipan. I love the flavor, but it doesn’t last at all.
This would make me so happy! I’ve been coveting some sephora products for over a year now but I haven’t been willing to give up the money…
I like cheese!
Hey Karen. Sooo jealous of your good night’s sleep. I was up till 1:00 and then up @ 7:00 to see my three boys play their flag football games. Ugh. I’m beat and grumpy.
Well, I must tell you about my young golden retriever, Ella. We swear she is part cat. If she smells a toy under a chair, sofa or coffee table, she will reach a paw under the furniture and bat the toy out like a cat swats at a toy! Unfortunately, her lazy golden retriever brother, Riley, is usually waiting with baited breath for the out-of-reach toy and snags it before his sister has a chance to enjoy her treasure. Luckily, Ella is good natured and doesn’t mind sharing! Enjoy your weekend and happy sleepy time. 🙂
i love sephoraaaa 🙂
Lip things in my purse= burts bee’s mango butter and mentha lip shine from bath and body works!
^ The “I like cheese!” comment made me giggle. 🙂
Today was beautiful out. I spent some time outside before taking a nap that ended up being a teeeeeny tiiiiny bit longer than I planned. But enough about me, here is my SUMMER WISHLIST!! OOOOOH, AAAAAH!
– Bare Escentuals Siren of the Sea kit (gorgeous! gorgeous! It’s mermaid/sea-inspired. It has a sandy gold color as well as a slate-blue-green-surprisingly-neutral-for-a-color-like-that shade, as well as a sheer, hydrating coral blush, a double-ended makeup brush, innovative “hydrating” mineral veil with abursting water bead technology of some sort, and a summery straw clutch to store it in! Gotta get my hands on it soon as it’s limited edition, and who doesn’t want to frolic the beach pretending they’re a mermaid?!)
– Bare Escentuals glimmer eyeshadows in Nude Beach (can’t even describe the shimmering beauty that is this versatile neutral shade) and Queen Phyllis (pale, champagne-y gold – something I’ve been looking for since last summer!)
– LORAC eyeshadow in Green Room. It’s a deep teal and I envision it looking very sultry on a summer night, paired with a flow-y maxi dress. I had been looking for a teal, but not just any teal! Something darker and more green than blue (but not emerald-like), and this has hit the jackpot.
– NARS blush in Gilda (coral)
– MAC eyeshadows in Bronze, Mulch, and moooore!
– I. Must. Stop.
Have a lovely week. 🙂
Suggestion – review 100% Pure – an all-natural and organic skin and makeup line. They are based in Oakland so I’m sure it would be easy to get samples to review.
I carry Elizabeth Arden 8 hour lipstick in melon
My little dog Johnny will nuzzle under your arms, blankets and anything he can do it to he will!
Favorite Jeans: American Eagle! They fit amazing!!!!!
What a great contest!
Lip products in my purse = philosophy superglossy in follow your dreams and Burt’s Bees. 🙂
I was hanging out with my two sons today, making some awesome Play Doh food and listening to Pandora…the playlist played Alvin and the Chipmunks doing a cover of “Livin on a Prayer” and I sang along…my elder son said, “Mommy, you know this song?!?”. You gotta love that 🙂
I’m desperately searching for a lovely sheerish-purply-plum lipgloss or lipstick to go with the influx of clothing that is in that family. It seems all of mine are more berry or magenta, instead of purple leaning
I love Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer – makes my eyeshadow last all day!
right now, in my purse is revlon colorburst in “papaya”

I currently have a couple Zoya Hot Lips lip glosses in my purse, in Boudoir and Heiress. I also have a Crazy Rumors lip balm in Orange Creamsicle.
I finally bought Stila’s convertible color in Peony on my daily stopover at Sephora today..and I’m so crazy – I’m wearing it and sitting at home! AND I’m now being a narcissist and can’t stop looking at myself 😀 Exactly what I needed for my vacation in India!
Oh and on a separate note, I discovered your blog a while back and am totally obsessed with it!

Arrrrrrggg…. It’s Sunday :/
Just got a haircut today and it feeeeeeeeeels great to lose some hair!!
I would love to win this giftcard! I could really use something good right now! Such hard times. Luckily, I have an amazing family. My little sister just came back from vacation and the MAC store in Vegas was preselling Quite Cute. She purchased the Cutie quad, I heart you plushglass, and Giggly blush for me as presents. As sad as it is, the new makeup was so uplifting after how hard the last week has been!
I gave up shopping for Lent, and it is really killing me right now. I need some retail therapy!

NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Chandelier, Aquaphor Lip Repair, and Stila Lip Glaze in Kitten all currently reside in my very cute gray purse from Target. 🙂

I have EOS in lemon (which my kids think is the greatest container ever) an old Bath and Bodyworks lipgloss in Marshmallow flavor, Clinique Black Honey gloss, and Vaseline lip tube in my purse right now!!
I bought a new pair of shoes a couple of days ago because I like the style and it fits my small feet perfectly plus the price is a real deal!! But when I wore it to work a few days after, my poor feet suffered from blisters 🙁 I guess I would have to break in my new shoes or place some moleskin :/
I’m in love with my menthol & eucalyptus balm from the rosebud perfume co. 🙂
nothing comes between me and my calvins 🙂
So much work this weekend!! But of course when I take a few minutes off to relax, your blog is my first stop! <3
Caipirinhas are my new favorite cocktail. This I learned today.
My cat begs for food like a dog!
I really love le metier de beaute and I’m determined to own all their eyeshadows/lip products!

I’ve fallen head over heels in love with NARS Luster blush, and I just got a great swap on MUA for it!! Super excited for it to arrive!
I am suffering from an awful cold. Just waiting for it to go away.
Can’t live without my Burt’s Bees Pomegranate lip balm!
I want clinique’s new tinted moisturizer. I got a sample but it matches my sister. So I have to wait until I go to the US on vacation to try it!
New lip product: MAC Angel lipstick! I’m loving it! Can’t believe I didn’t pick it up sooner…
i had an awesome day yesterday despite the bad weather, but it’s supposed to be much nicer today for my trip to the mall! woooo!
I think that the only lip stuff in my purse is a Badger balm cocoa butter lipbalm. It smells good.
I love watching Sex and The City. All the fashion, men, comedy, and beauty! The women on this show exude confidence and they make dramatic scenes have a comedic element. I was just watching a few episodes and I’m bummed its over for tonight. It definitely never gets old!
P.S. Thanks for this opportunity Karen!
all i have is vaseline, and cargo lipgloss if i remember it
Am currently obsessed with orange blush (yes, orange…) from a random palette that my roommate has! Thanks for the giveaway (:

One of my cats plays fetch, and the other has the ability to completely sink into whatever bed she is laying upon.
I had my birthday party tonight and we played trampoline dodgeball – we had so much fun and it was great exercise too!
I have Carmex lip balm and MAC Cremesheen Glass in Loud and Lovely in my purse right now.
I really want to find a nice orangey – coraly lipstick. I have been loving the look of orange lips but I don’t think I could pull off bright orange.
i love pistachios 😀
i would love this sephora card!
Well, my dog has a weird quirk of scaring herself…with the sound of her farts. TMI, yes, but it’s super-adorable, ha ha!
I have Carmex lip Balm, an Anna Sui Rouge Jar, a Fresh sugar Plum lip balm, a NYX Jumbo Lip Pencil, a Covergirl Guava Fruit Spritzer and a Julius’ Strawberry Banana Lip Smacker in my backpack right now. (Don’t worry, I am an admitted lip product addict! :P)
I hava mac gaga I in my purse!
My dog is so adorable, but OMFG$*&^…he eats everything–even his own fur.
My friend is buying makeup for me from Changi Airport in Singapore – I can’t wait for her to get back!
In my purse right now I have the Body Shop’s lip butter in Passionfruit 🙂

which purse?! Oh my gosh, If I were to count up all my lip stuff–I have everything from Aquafor to Chanel. Love your site:}
My new kitten Charlie has three modes: 1) Sleepy Time 2) Frolic around our small house pretending to be lord and king of the land and 3) Sitting on keyboarddddddghfh… 😛
oh how lovely the weather is….spring has finally arrived!
Right now I am loving Neutrogena’s new natural lip balm.
Just got home after a long night of intense cramming for finals, your blog makes me feel more cheery! 🙂 Probably gonna reward myself with a splurge at Sephora after I’m done with finals!
Omg Karen – I think Tabs and my kitteh Lola took the same course in mommy control. She does the exact same thing to me in the mornings!
Just booked a 10-day vacat to chicago after finals.. It’s the only thing keeping me going right now!
I am holding my newborn son in my arms as I read your blog and listening to him dream makes me smile.
enjoy Tabs while you have him. even his annoying alarm clock features.
Eye shadows rule my world. Thank goodness for Sephora and their to die for brands!
Lots of outside work to do this weekend.
I’m trying to learn the guitar! 🙂
I retweeted, I think. One of my two cats is a total weird-do. She kneeds any fleece blanket like it is her mother, and gets in really close, with her nose and face touching the blanket, getting it all wet.
the only lip products i keep in my purse are lip balms. I only have my rose bud salve and eos passionfruit lip balm in my purse.
Jessica recently posted … Ulta Haul
In my purse I currently have 2 Nars glosses, a Laura Geller lipstick, a Sephora lip stain and lip pencil. I know, ridiculous amount.
My cat died two years ago *sniff* he was such an affectionate kitty. He would lie on my shoulder and wrap his arm around my neck! I miss him so much..
Cats have a way to get us up in the morning, don’t they 🙂
Just bought a great drugstore lipgloss- Revlon Colorsplash. This stuff is great for only $6! I’m all for paying alot for your basics and getting the fun stuff for cheap!
woo! barely made the deadline! 🙂
Am I too late? I hope not…
Haha, we have a 6 month old puppy and on a daily basis we are finding some funny character traits she has. Ever since we brought her home she eats anything she get into her mouth when she is outside… especially dried leaves! Her newest favorite thing is to stand on her back legs and put her front paws on you and she loves to have her front shoulders scratched. She will do this for at least 5 min! 🙂

We miss our cat that got ill a month after our twin boys were born. It’s sad that she didn’t get the chance to know them, but we look forward to getting two kittens now that it’s been three years. Love reading about fun cats!
My favorite jeans are Lucky Brand.
I’ve been into coral lipsticks lately. I currently have a Maybelline one in my purse. 🙂

Last December I discovered Uniqlo and I love their jeans; they’re the only kind I wear now.
I have been wearing the Sephora Hello Kitty sweet gloss in Pinkie a lot lately
I need a nap.
Mykeshia recently posted … Nice gesture from NYX cosmetics
My favorite eyeline is an eyeliner “cake”. You wet your brush and run on the cake. It lasts forever. They don’t make my brand anymore, and the only way you can buy anything like it is to purchase “clown” makeup. LOL
Favorite lip product right now is colour burst lip gloss by loreal because it smells amazing!!! 🙂
Sunburns suck. 🙁
I would love to win!!!
Went to Ulta the other day to sniff-test YSL’s Parisienne – it was the only fragrance in the whole store without a tester! Ugh!
Ahhh I’m so ready for summer! I”m ready to bust out my coral and orange blushes and lippies!
My cat likes to chew the plastic trash bags in the trash cans to try and wake us up in the morning. This morning he was meowing. Not sure what’s up with that! I ignored him. Hah!
have a great weekend 🙂
I love sephora and turtles!
I am an old follower on twitter and tweeted this today http://twitter.com/manthas24/status/57117971994259456
My comment – love reading your posts!
My favorite jeans always come from The Buckle store.
Couldn’t resist and went to MAC to grab the new release ‘cute’ lipstick yesterday. Can’t wait to try it out.
My rottie has a weird quirk…she has to have her Honey Nut Cheerios..no off brands..she won’t eat off brands..and if you try to sneak and pour yourself a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios without her…she pitches a hissy fit!
I’m obsessed with NARS Deep Throat!

I just adopted a 12 yr. female kitty named Babygurl, she’s so sweet. We’re really starting to get to know one another, & she is quite character! It’s so funny how you grow attached in such a short amount of time, I couldn’t imagine my life without her now!
Thanks for all the amazing giveaways that you have!
I’m completely obsessed with my Naked Palette. my other makeup must feel so neglected, but i honestly don’t ever see the need to use another palette (at work anyway). xoxo.
I played the flute from third grade to sophomore year in high school. I miss those days 😛
I’m waiting for my order to get here from the US!
Back from a relaxing week-end with mi girlfriends. Loved every minute!!
Just went for a walk in the park, the weather is just lovely!
My kitten’s wakeup routine is very similar to Tabs’! They must communicate somehow…
Just found your site and am perusing the posts now! Looks good so far and who doesn’t love a giveaway?! Yay makeup!
I wish I can have a kitty, too bad my landlord doesn’t allow any pets. Lately, I’m into everything pink in my makeup!
My kitties bug me for gravy in the morning too. I swear it gets earlier every day!
I love lipglosses, I love how they feel. I just got some Too Faced lipgloss this week. I can’t have too many tubes, well at least I say this, my husband would disagree.
My kitty sleeps with his tongue literally hanging out of his mouth…and even when he wakes up, he doesn’t realize that it’s just hangin out there!!! After his naps, he looks as if he just arose from a drunken stupor….It makes me laugh every.single.time!!!!!!
I’m kicking butt in Words with Friends!
Happy Sunday :)! First Sunday here in Cleveland where the weather is beautiful and sunny! Time for a walk!
The kitty looks like my kitty Xena! WOW!
My dog has this thing about getting my attention when he has to go outside, he found out that if he bolts full speed into my sliding glass door it will get my attention and cause me to open the door. It makes me laugh when he tries to walk straight after I open that door.
I have way too many lip glosses and lipsticks in my bag right now!
Currently painting my nails with Sephora by OPI’s Domestic Goddess…amazing 🙂
Candy Yum Yum is my dream lipstick.. Sooo lovely!
please enter me in giveaway…:)

I have a yorkie named BizzyB. She is all of 4 lbs and very demanding lol!! Of course, she has no idea how small she is…so she challenges all the bigger dogs in the neighborhood. They are all afraid of her!
26 days left until my due date… getting more and more excited! 🙂
thanks for the fun giveaway!
I filled a MAC sample with a MAC TLC!
I’m looking for a good new skincare regime!
my cat is morbidly obese. one time a bald eagle (we live in seattle) was circling him, clearly marking him as prey, but then gave up when it realized just how much effort it would be to carry this cat
Favorite store for jeans is Express – they make ankle-length stretchy jeans, which is so important for me as a 5’2” (and not very skinny) midget! I find their cuts very flattering, and their jeans are very durable.
I play the piano =)

I like Joe’s Jeans!
I just bought a ton of argan oil in morocco. Hope it makes it home safely through my next few looong flights!
Today we are finally getting some spring weather-80 degrees and just loving it!
I love Sephora!!!
My cat’s quirk is that she would have to jump on the back of the couch before she would settle down on the cushions. Now she has arthritis and can’t make it up there anymore.
I’ve gotta say my favorite eyeliner is Stila Smudgepot and favorite mascara is Maybelline Lash Stiletto. These have gotten me through my toughest finals and as I’m going into finals now, they are going to be my steadfast companions to help me survive exams!
i would really like to win this contest. i haven’t been able to go to sephora in a while and would really like to since we live so far away from one so winning this and being able to buy stuff online.
Today I went to the mall and saw children lining up to sit on the Easter bunny’s lap and get their photos taken. It was weird.
