Two Ways to Win a $50 eGift Card from Sephora!

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

Rise and shine, morning glory. Before we get to the giveaway, I gotta talk about Drive! El Hub and I caught a late showing last night, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since.

In Drive, Ryan Gosling tears. It. Up. Boy is so bad@ss as a getaway driver with a heart of gold that he makes me want to drive to Trader Joe’s right now really, really fast, sitting down low in the driver’s seat with my collar turned up, a pair of black leather driving gloves on my hands and mirror-finish shades.

Strong and silent describe Ryan’s unnamed character in the film, and that’s what I think it is, too, a film. This ain’t no cheesy popcorn flick. Ain’t no Fast and the Furious knockoff. It’s a movie muscle car, part ’70s heist caper, part ’80s art-house picture, part hopeless romance meets man-in-peril at a NASCAR race.

I loved it! I’d never heard of the director, Nicolas Winding Refn, before, but it’s as if he channeled the best parts of David Lynch, Quentin Tarantino (whom I usually don’t like) and Martin Scorsese. I can see the group of them meeting for peach cobbler and coffee at some old diner in L.A. one morning scribbling out the storyboard on little white napkins. Refn took all the best parts of The Notebook, Days of Thunder, Purple Rain, The Fugitive and Casino and combined them to make something pretty cool and different.

Okay, I’ll stop. Suffice it to say, watch it! Highly recommended, even though it is violent, and Ryan Gosling doesn’t show his tum. 🙁

In other news, it’s…

A Makeup and Beauty Blog Giveaway!

Totally cool how we don’t even know Ryan’s character’s name in the movie. I don’t think they ever said it once.

    I’m actually 21 and don’t even have my learner’s permit! It’s awful – I took the test once when I was 16, and I failed, and just never got around to going back and doing it again. Luckily I live in cities where the transit is mostly reliable and I live close enough to downtown that I can walk many places, but it is kind of embarrassing that I can’t drive!

    But, I do love wearing sunglasses – every opportunity I get. As I tell my boyfriend, I just don’t like to squint!

    Thanks for holding the giveaway!

    So I saw Drive last night, too. I looked up why it was rated R before going (because I always do that, I don’t do highly sexual movies) and saw that it said “extreme violence.” After seeing it, I told the bf that I don’t understand where the “extreme” came from. Yeah, it was violent, but I feel like I’ve seen the same things on the Sopranos and it could have been much worse. He called me mentally ill and said he doesn’t understand why I could watch that, but can’t watch movies involving sex. It made me feel bad Karen 🙁 He was joking and did apologize, but still.

Eventually ill get over that fear and i will learn how to properly drive- i hope that is soon because taking a bus to get to college 5 hours away from where i live is a pain!

    I got my license immediately when I turned 16. Years later I dated a guy who didn’t drive, and we lived on opposite ends of a big, busy city. It sucked. That’s one relationship I was glad to see end!

    I got my license when I was almost 16.5. I’m a little surprised I got it on the first try (not that I was bad–just not confident) but the tester kept getting phone calls she couldn’t ignore, so I guess she felt bad.

    I got my license when I was 17- here in AZ they don’t expire for something like 50 years (seriously!) but they made me get a new photo taken last month because mine was 12 years old (weird, right?). I definitely used your advice from awhile back in your license post but the contrast was so weird on the camera that I still look bad. Ah well. 🙁

    I almost always wear sunglasses outdoors, but it’s especially important in the summer. I wind up with a headache after 5 minutes of driving in the sun if I forget them. Also, as a side note, sunglasses w/o too dark a tint or just plain non-magnifying accessory glasses are GREAT when you’re peeling onions!

    Okay, I confess, I have been known to put on lipstick or gloss occasionally while driving. But only a light neutral color that I can do without looking. So it’s really more about fumbling with the container than long-term visual distraction. That’s what long red lights are for, right? I have been known to put on the whole face in my car in the parking lot at work, though. Potentially embarrassing, but much safer!!

    Incidentally, PICK ME!! My Sephora list is probably too long for $50, but it would definitely make a dent.

    My first car was a red Volkswagen Bug. I bought it for $1000 and had it for 20 years. How I loved that car! It took me across the country and I have such exciting and romantic memories about that little car! Ironically, my current car is a red Volkswagen. It’s not a bug but I love it as well!

    I was 16 when I got my license. My first car was a Ford Escort {hello total “mom car”} but the feeling of that first bit of true freedom was the most amazing feeling. I would get in my car and just drive and drive listening to my angsty 1990’s music as loud as possible. Ah, to be young again. Now I drive a family car covered in pb&j crumbs with the latest copy of the Music Together cd playing….

    I got my permit and license at 16. I did not study at all for the permit, thinking, ‘how hard could it possibly be?’ I passed the test by ONE question… Had I missed any more, I’d have failed. I haven’t forgotten what the guy there said that day.. “Do you always do everything by the skin of your teeth?” Needless to say I learned about pride that day..

    I believe I got my license when I was 16. For some reason, I was in no rush to get it at first and I went to driving school the summer before I took my test. My first car was a second-hand Plymouth my parents bought from my aunt and uncle. I do like to wear sunglasses because it’s almost always sunny where I live and I don’t like squinting with the sun blaring in my eyes. I never apply makeup while I’m driving. I might apply gloss when I’m stopped at a red light, that’s about it.

Slow and tiny as hell, but I loved it nonetheless. There are 6 kids in my family and my dad made it his life goal (or so I think) to get that car to make it through every kid. And it did. =)

    I got my driver’s license when I was 27 because no-one in my Midwestern community had ever heard of a disabled person driving! I had to get permission from my city councilman because DMV was staffed by the political party that had won the last county election.My examiner was fat, bald and toothless. When I was recertified, the examiner apologized because there was no traffic. XXOO

    Even if I didn’t like sunglasses, which I do, I’d have no choice but to wear them. I have very pale blue eyes that are very sensative to light and I even wear them on cloudy days because the glare can give me a fierce headache. One pet peeve about sunglasses: I cannot stand it when I get makeup on the very top of the lenses, like from above my eyebrows. Makes me nuts!

    Haay GURR! Happy Saturday 🙂 I do like wearing sunglasses, especially if they cover almost up to my eyebrows. You can spy on people and they can never tell 😉 Also, they protect the delicate skin around the eyes, which we all want to preserve!

    The only makeup that goes down in my car is a quick lipstick/lipgloss application. I’m not one of those girls who can put on their entire warpaint in the tiny car mirror, one eye half watching the stop light to make sure you’re not holding up traffic behind you. It’s too nerve wracking! I need my time, and all my proper brushes on hand.

It turned out to be a good thing though since I was the first of my friends to drive and I could haul a whole group with me.

    I got my license when I was 21. I went away to college at 17 to a city where I didn’t need to drive to get around, so when I moved back to my hometown afterwards, that was when I needed to get around.

    I still have my first car, a 98 Stratus. I got it with very low mileage, and it’s still in rather good condition!

    Hey there! So I stopped self tanning and had to get color matched at MAC for foundation. I was soo shocked when I found out I’m now NC15! Wooo I’m soo pale right now! 😛

    A lot of people are cruel to people who are fairer skinned but I love my new look! I’m glad my foundation matches me and I’m not orange like so many others (you’re gorgeous, Karen! Not you!!) I hope I win this contest so I can buy some new makeup that actually suits me.. I was NC35 for sooo long!! XOXO

    I want to wear sunglasses but I just can’t cuz I have a small nose. I’m an Asian so you prolly know what kind of Asian I look like. I wasn’t blessed like others that has tall nose. I envy those people, but that’s life, you can’t have anything you want. I should be contented with what God gave me. 🙂

    I had a wonderful birthday today! Last night just when I was preparing to go to bed, my husband came with bowls of my favourite Spumoni ice cream and red champagne. Today as soon as I got out of bed he gave me a huge rose, a perfect one 6” across from our garden, laced with jasmine. Later we went for lunch at the Montage, a five star hotel. http://www.montagehotels.com/ Everyone knew my husband there, from the waiters to the manager to the chef! The chef prepared a special meal for us and came to our table himself. The manager Daniel came to our table several times to wish me. We started with a shrimp cocktail, followed by an organic tomato and goat cheese vinaigrette and then I had the veal schnitzel with egg and hubby had the kobe beef sandwich. The final round up was a chocolate cake with raspberries drizzled with coulis. We both had some Chardonnay. It was a beautiful day, the ocean looked lovely as it does every day from my house. My birthday gift was a pair of 15 carats diamond hoops. Loving life!

    How old were you when you got your driver’s license?
    I was 18. It was the summer between high school and college.
    Tell me about your first car.
    I still own it! I got it second-hand from my dad when I was 20. It’s the only car that I’ve ever owned. Had it for 9 years. It’s kind of falling apart now, but I can’t afford to get a new one (even used).
    Do you like wearing sunglasses?
    I see them as more of a necessity. I’ll wear them if it’s really sunny outside. I’ll also wear them if I’m on the computer for a while and the screen brightness starts making my eyes ache (my husband thinks this is ridiculous).
    Do you ever put on makeup while you’re driving?
    Good lord, no. I don’t want to die or kill someone else!

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).
