Win a $50 Sephora eGift card from Makeup and Beauty Blog

Good morrow, gorgeous. 🙂 I hope you slept well. Did you do anything fun last night? Tabs guarded the house while I got my culture on at the ballet. I’m not quite awake yet, so I’ll share more about the evening a little later on. Suffice it say, it was fun. It was probably the best ballet I’ve ever seen (mind you, I haven’t seen that many).

It’s just past 7 o’clock in the morning here. Tabs came downstairs with me when I got up but then walked straight over to his cat tower, climbed to the top and fell back to sleep. Let’s think about this for a moment: he has all night to sleep and also naps throughout the day, yet the first thing he does after getting up in the morning is go back to sleep?

Cats. They’re too much.

Well, Tabs may not have pressing plans, but I do. I just need a little help from C8H10N4O2. While I figure out which caffeinated beverage I’m in the mood for today, you know what time it is, right?

It’s…

    I’m fixated on the NARS summer eyeshadows (all of them!) to an unhealthy degree. But I’m still job searching and will soon need to furnish an apartment on a just-out-of-college budget, so buying office-inappropriate shadows like Cap Ferrat is totally unjustifiable. I’m hopelessly in love, though, so this gift certificate would really help.

    Funny story, I got a sample of an eye gel that is supposed to depuff, etc. The directions read: in the morning, after your shower, before your coffee, apply to eye area.
    I don’t shower before coffee!!! I don’t do anything before coffee, lol! I’d probs fall in the shower if I hadn’t had my coffee!

    My cat has so many important decisions to make each day, like where shall I sleep? Shall I have something to eat now? Is it time for the allocated portion of the day where I let my humans give me cuddles and fuss?

    I am worried she is going to burn out soon. Might be time to stage an intervention….

    Good morning everyone! I’d like to start out by saying I have danced more the last two days than I have in my entire life. Yay dancing! I swear it’s therapeutic.

    -I love abyssinian cats. I was raised by a fantastic abby named Pepsi-Doll. He wast the best. cat. ever. (Besides Tabs, of course).

    -I shower whenever I can pack it in the day, but I like night showers because it helps calm me down for the evening and there’s something so cozy about nestling into the manger after a nice hot shower.

    -Since I can’t take the caffeine in coffee, I stick to tea. But sometimes my boo will make my special dusting drink at the coffee shop: mini mocha with a 1/4 shot espresso.

    To wake me up in the morning, a cold glass a water actually does the trick for me better than coffee. If I’ve had a big breakfast and then drink coffee, I tend to feel sleepy – something about hot beverages that relax me. I know that’s really weird, right? 😛

    I’m a relative newcomer to your blog; your skin color is similar to mine, and I like being able to see what the makeup looks like applied before I buy it. I am just amazed at the amount of cosmetics you review. I would LOVE to know – how much money do you guesstimate do you spend on your makeup in a year?

    My favorite breed of cat is a cornish rex, because of their very loving, playful personality and dog-like behavior. Unfortunately, I am extremely allergic to any type of cat and can’t have one. 🙁

It is frustrating, I am insomniac, and whether I like it or not, I cannot drink coffee because of that. Got really serious problem with my sleep, sometimes I get 5-6 hours of sleep gaa. The stress..

    Fave morning beverage: Diet Coke from Sonic–I swear they put crack in those things cause I’m addicted.

    Fave makeup product: Smashbox primer. Tried several, but Smashbox tops ’em all.

    Fave tip of yours: applying liquid foundation with a MAC foundation brush. My life will never be the same! My very large pores—-are—-in hiding when I use MAC brush #130.

    Because of you I bought–NARS illuminator ! Love it!

Its always exciting to have a full schedule because there is not a boring time during the day. Always spending it with others and trust me its extremely tiring at times. I come to this blog almost every other day. Its so hard to concentrate on hmwrk meanwhile someone has this fun blog where i can learn so much about makeup…. Ive only began to view this blog about 3 months ago so i go back to the old post…. =0) thanks for the blog. if it wasnt for this blog i’d be so bored while doing my hmwrk lol!

    Cats, I love them! Rescues always, of course. I had one rescue who looked remarkably like a British Blue, and now they are a favorite breed. Gorgeous, and they look like the original LOL cat 😀
    He passed away about a month ago, and I’ve got my eye on another rescue to adopt, she looks like a Russian Blue. I guess I have a thing for gray cats!
    My other cat is a black shorthair mutt, polydactyl though 😉

    Hi There,

    I guess, I will start off by saying that I’ve followed your blog for a little while now (i’ve just recently gotten back into makeup after the birth of my son). I’ve never been the type of person to comment but I really appreciate all your insights into things 🙂 always makes me think about using things or passing them.

    Now to answer one of the questions, as I mentioned I have a son, so my favorite beverage in the mornings is a vanilla latte, coffee, or a Rockstar (Caffeine is very important).

    Thank you for hosting a giveaway and will be following you on Twitter 🙂

    Have a great day!

    wooo contest! I have had so many cat breeds over the years – javanese, oriental, british shorthair, abyssinan. Now I have two egyptian maus and a sphynx – all wildly different cats, I love them all and could never pick a favorite; the maus are affectionate but highly instinctive, they’ll sit on your lap but won’t let you pick them up. The sphynx is dauntless and more friendly dog than cat in his personality. Also he stinks to high heaven right now, clearly it is bathtime!

    I love calico cats (I know it’s not a breed but w/e XD) cause their fur is so pretty, and russian blues (which is what my cat is) because they’re smart and are close with their owners 😀

    My favorite morning beverage is diet coke. I like the caffeine, but the fizziness also really peps me up. People think it’s weird, but I don’t like coffee or any kind of warm drink. Don’t you think the milk or cream in a latte will counteract the caffeine?

    I have a kitty who is about 12 years old now and I lover her more than anything. Her name is Topaz and we’re unsure of what breed she is. She randomly appeared on our porch one day and we’ve had her ever since! In the past year she’s given us a lot of scares. Topaz got bitten by another cat and she started to have seizure and she also had to have surgery recently. My families kitty is our baby and she’s everything to us. Also, you should check out this website

    These are videos about cats and they’re absolutely hilarious and I swear this portrays my cat perfectly!

    Just got back from a pizza making class at a local restaurant. First time I have ever had the opportunity to use a wood-burning pizza oven and it was a blast. But the pizza dough really kicked my butt! It was so elastic it was difficult to shape yet the pros at the restaurant make it look as easy as ever. Had a blast and can’t wait to cook my own pizza at home, although in a regular oven instead of a cool pizza oven!

    Well, until a few weeks ago, my favorite beverage in the morning was a high maintenance Americano from Starbucks. Why high maintenance you ask? Well…because it had two pumps of cinnamon dolce and one pump of white chocolate with steamed breve and “delicious foam” as my barista Michelle calls it. Anyway, I’ve been on the wagon and without coffee for two weeks now!!! I cannot wait until the 15th when I can have my delicious coffee beverage again…oh the horror of no coffee!!!

    I usually get around 8 hours of sleep these days, my favourite morning beverage is tea, and I shower in the evening, right before bed. 🙂 Also, the Surf Baby collection products look cool, but I’m put off by the packaging of it, unfortunately. It looks overly gaudry to me, rather than cute. ))):

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).
