Ah… Good old fashioned bribery works every time! My body and brain have been demanding a little extra exercise motivation lately, so I’ve decided to award them with new workout gear.
I figure, if I’m gonna break a sweat, even at times when I really don’t want to, I might as well do it in cute clothes. 🙂
There were those pieces I liked from Zella, which I’ve heard is like a budget friendlier Lululemon, but I’m a gal who likes options, so I put the question out there on Twitter and asked for recommendations for stylish, sturdy, affordable workout clothes.
A couple of girls mentioned Danskin at Wal Mart, and the Champion line at Target, Old Navy and Gap, so I’ve got a little more to work with now.
Let me know if you have any other ideas for me. The more the merrier.
Now, without further ado…on to the giveaway!

Hey Karen! Love your blog! I’d love to see a review of the new NARS TM!
I never wear makeup while exercising. It feels so gross!
I am so hoping the winds die down where i live. The lowest they’ve been this week is 25 mph and they were up to 60!
My workout choice is insanity by Sean t #digdeep
I actually just proposed myself to start working out again! Good luck to you!
I mostly like to keep my skin free from makeup while exercising but I always wear a lip color and sometimes eye shadow, if I’m testing some products for review!

I need to start running again !
Moisturizer and lip balm, but otherwise, I want a NEKKID face when working out! 😉
I love waterproof mascara! My fave is Nars Larger Than Life Volumizing mascara 🙂
I currently go to the gym twice a week to a body pump class.
Mine please.
I love my Skinfood mascara from Korea!! Am not very sure if it’s waterproof though…
Just finished my Sat. morning cardio kickboxing workout–feels so good afterwards! I do wear a bit of makeup…mascara, lip balm and a dab of concealer. It’s all off by the end of the class.
🙂
My dog woke me up this morning by barking. I am sad.

My favourite waterproof mascara has to be guerlain! But i don’t wear makeups when I workout tho!
I like bananas, especially bananas foster!
I do mostly cardio, HIIT, plyometrics, weight lifting etc at the gym. Lately I’ve been running 5K obstacle courses which is so much fun!
I follow and Tweeted! (sofaa)
I love kickboxing!!! Best cardio and I got twice a week 🙂
I love kettlebells!
I just got a Zella hoodie. It’s my first piece from the line and I love, love, love it!
I get all my workout clothes at Target and Old Navy.
I won’t wear makeup when I exercise, feels too gross! Just chap stick for me! Hopefully going to workout at some point today with the hubby.. I want to so badly but it’s so hard to feel energized with a 7 month old still not sleeping through the night lol 🙂
can’t wait to start pilates again – my body and mind LOVE pilates!!
Bananas are my favorite fruit.
It’s windy like crazy outside today, I can’t get out to do anything 🙁
i want to start working out again. i gotta get over the lazies…
just got back from my friend’s wedding. it so nice.
I like lifting weights, and heck yes, I wear makeup to the gym! 🙂
Organic foods start my day and I’m not a fitness guru, but i’m a beast on a treadmill!!! =)
My favorite waterproof mascara is Loreal Million Lashes! This baby works wonders in the gym; I think I’m in love. 😉
We finally got a Sephora in my area and I would love to go get me a makeover with Urban Decay and then go shopping online with the gift card! 🙂
It’s snowing in Philly!! Staying in to do yoga ;o]
I bought into the hype a few years ago and bought the Reebok Easytone tennis shoes (the ones with the balance balls on the sole). A class action lawsuit was brought against them for failure to live up to the hype and now I’m getting a $50 check in the settlement! I’ve never had a problem with them, as I use them only for walking (not running) – kind of a bonus that I’m getting $ back 🙂
Happy Saturday & thanks again for the giveaway!

I run 3x a week, usually with a friend or local running group, but sometimes solo. If I already have makeup on I keep it on, but I never put makeup on just to exercise. (But I MUST have earrings on! Otherwise I feel like a boy.) And I hate bananas.
No makeup for workouts!
I only wear lipstick when working out, otherwise I’m asking for breakouts!
Oscars this weekend!
I may move to North Carolina for school this Fall and I’m wondering how this might affect my makeup steelo.
I need to start working out! But I haven’t yet…
I love bananas especially banana split
I really like Garden Roses eyeshadows by Dior.
Email : andrasescu.camelia@gmail.com
Makeup while exercising is a no-no for me. I’m at the gym to get fit, not impress everyone! Also, bananas are AMAZING! Great pre-workout snack too.
I can’t do anything without my makeup on. When I work out I usual just put light makeup on, like BE. I NEVER leave my house without makeup on. I’m one of those that always runs into someone I know when I look my worst.
I’m trying to lose 15lbs by graduation in May so I’ve been running and doing Insanity daily!
Ew. I can never workout with makeup. I don’t get why so many girls do. It just feel uncomfortable.
I sweat way to much to even bother putting makeup on when I work out.
Amber Joy recently posted … Walmart Coupon Wallet…My New Bestie!!
Nine weeks today and I’m due on October 6th!
Excited for spring!
Okay I’ll admit maybe some light cover up and some waterproof mascara only at the gym! Anything more i think is too much. Just my opinion: )
I need to do major for workout clothes, work clothes, and pj’s! But now that I’ve got the cash, I don’t have much time.
What a beauty of a day today!
Um, yeah, I wear makeup while working out! lol Well, just waterproof mascara – it keeps my lashes curled and makes me feel less… gross?… when I’m all sweaty. I tend to exercise later in the day or in the evening, so I’ll take off the rest of my makeup but leave the eye stuff bc that usu requires some special remover.
Ah workouts… I’m an “active” gym member but haven’t stepped in since early last summer lol. My friend is now forcing me to start going since she wants to lose her baby weight. She’ll be my motivation!
I don’t wear ANY make up when I work out, but I love wearing make up and playing with it when I get out of the shower after a good work out! Nothing makes me feel more beautiful than a good sweat at the gym, nice shower, and nice make up :)!
No makeup while I exercise – I don’t want stuff sitting on my skin as I sweat. However, I can’t help wearing just a bit of mascara when I go outdoors for a hike. Gotta bring out those peepers!
And, I love a good banana. It is my pre-lunch snack at work!
I’ve been using Cover Girl lash blast 24hour mascara and it does not come off ever! I even have a bit of difficulty getting it off with my make up removing clothes. It does keep my lashes curled which I’ve always had trouble with.
I usually wear mascara and a bit of mineral powder when i workout.
I love cute workout clothes, too. I especially love the brand lucy (lucy.com)–a little higher-end, but very high quality, so comfy, so cute, and if you search the sale section, you can find some really good deals.
Lululemon is worth the investment but, from experience the Old Navy and Danskin lines are decent options for being budget friendly. They’ve held up through yoga, pilates, spinning and running. The Target Champion line didn’t last as long but its a good option for pilates or yoga but not running. Another line I like is the Adidas by Stella MCcartney Not cheap but So cute!
If I hit the gym after work, I don’t bother taking off my makeup before I exercise, to me that’s just as silly as putting it on just to go to the gym. I go as I am.
I won’t even deny it. I’m waaaay too lazy to exercise. 😐
OMG, bananas. I get made fun of all the time, because there is only a teeny tiny window where I will eat fresh bananas. If they’re still too green and firm, nope. If they have one too many spots, nope. Hahaha.
Larie recently posted … The Beauty No-Buy: Update 2
I’m a huge fan of Victorias Secret for work out clothes!
I don’t wear makeup when I’m exercising; all of it just disappears by the time I’m done!
I wear a uniform of comfy skinny jeans, a t-shirt, and a hoodie. I tried to revamp my style and dress more fashionably a year back, but it just took too much effort and $ and I ended up feeling silly. Now I let my makeup be the star of my look. 🙂
My workout buddy is my husband 🙂
Heck yes I wear some makeup when I work out…..and I am not ashamed to admit it! Never know who you’ll run into afterwards.
On another note, what kind of winter is this? Where’s the snow? I want a winter wonderland!
I love wearing yoga leggings with loose tanks. So comfy!
I can’t lie, I wear makeup when I work out. Since I wear makeup every day, it’s still on my face by the time I get to the gym. It’s not really a conscious decision like OMG GYM TIME IS MAKEUP TIME, it just happens to still be on my face.
Bananas make my tummy hurt. D: haha
My university has two gyms– one near all the dorms and one on campus. My friend that lives in my building will literally come into my room and drag me out to go with her, so working out has been pretty easy lately.
I rarely workout and when I do I usually just use the treadmill. I usually just fill in my brows, put some lip/cheek stain on and curl my lashes.
I just did two sets of ten burpees. This is a huge accomplishment.

I never wear makeup while working out…it feels yucky!
Super windy here today!
I can’t wear makeup to the gym, I start to feel gross when I sweat with it on. And if I’m wearing makeup when it comes time to workout, I always wash everything off
Having a sad day today
makeup + sweat = not good
I want to work out more and get healthy to have a baby with the hubbs!!!
I love swimming for exercise (and fun) in the summer!
My workout buddy was my best friend and motivation! but she left to the navy.. now i workout alone! 🙁
I had a peanut butter and banana sandwich for breakfast. I feel like I’m 5 years old again.
I am always training for a marathon or half marathon, so I run a lot. I also like weights, body pump and Zumba. I should get back into yoga as well..
I always wear lipstick or lipgloss when I work out. And if I have a full face of makeup from the day I don’t take it off before the workout because Im gross like that 😀
Bananas on my cereal every morning!
that is an AWESOME picture! I LOVE SEPHORA!
Currently my only work out is walking while I’m on break at work. So yes, full makeup. It’s only about 2/3ths of a mile.
My dog is sitting in my lap.
I would also love to see a review on the new NARS TM!
Love bananas. And imo nike makes the best capri pants! I feel like a superwoman when running/ biking in them. Quality of those is the best! So worth the price. Do not like target’s champion line pants. They give u came ltoe, lol:). Even my bf noticed. RetuuuuurnedThere are a few things more embarassing than camel toes and visible panty lines. Even the gretest make up won’t help u then.
I despite bananas. lol. but I love make-ups!
Jillian Michaels workouts rock! 🙂
Banana’s are my favorite fruit.
i like old navy workout gear! cheap!
Happy Saturday. No make-up other than concealer for a heavy duty work out, but if I’m out just walking I wear a tinted moisturizer or very light foundation with sunscreen it. Oh & masscara too. Favorite work out is weights & my treadmill.
Would love to win… please! 🙂
I like either the elliptical (with intervals of going backwards) or intervals on the treadmill. I don’t wear a ton of makeup when I exercise, but I at least put on eyebrow pencil (my brows are sparse) and mascara (my lashes are blonde at the tips!)
I love bananas, and more importantly, my bunny Quincy loooovvves bananas. They are his favorite thing. I just bought the new CoverGirl LashBlast 24 Hour mascara in black gold, and I LOVE IT. It kept my lashes curled, no flaking, no smearing, and a pretty golden glint to it. No workout buddy, but I’m currently wearing yoga pants (though I do plan to hit up the gym later)
I don’t have a fav waterproof mascara-I haven’t had great experiences. I do wanna try illegal length though.
let’s stay together!
Favorite + workout..Error. Does not compute.
My favorite waterproof mascara is CG Professional in Very Black. I don’t wear it often, but when I do this does the job.
i really wish for a healthy year for myself
I need to get motivated again to exercise and I’m starting with ballroom dancing!
No makeup for workouts…except maybe mascara
I like bananas..they’re delicious, but I prefer them au naturel rather than frozen and dipped in chocolate. I once had a banana pencil case that was peel-able, it was one of my most prized souvenires from Japan.
Nonono I never wear makeup while exercising.
I´d love that gift certificate!
My seasonal allergies are OWNING me right now.
Mmmm, I love tea. (random)
I rather read your blog than exercise!
adopted a 2 months old tabby from the humane society!!! she’s so adorable i want to cry LOL
I have a live/hate with bananas. I loved them as a kid, then hated them for many years, now forcing myself to eat them again so I can get healthier and lose weight.
I do currently exercise. In fact, I just got home from the gym!
I’m headed to NYC this week for vacation – so excited to visit a Sephora store!
I like Victoria’s Secret workout gear. A little pricy at times, but their sports bras have lasted me for years. Highly recommend them, and Champion as far as workout gear goes! By the way, I really enjoy reading your blog, and since I am new to it, reading old posts as well. It’s a highlight out of my day!
My favourite workout, or sport, is rollerblading. Tomorrow I’ll be off for 2-3 hours of city rollerblade, yay!! And with NO makeup on, heehee…
I just got my Chanel Roses Ultimes de Chanel & Las Vegas de Chanel pieces! I can’t wait to get done with work so I can play with them!
I do Zumba everyday then go jogging afterwards.
I love doing Zumba! It’s a great workout and fun too!
I can’t wait for the warm weather so I can start going for my walks again.
i can’t wait for summer so i can swim!
Your example questions remind me I need to start working out more. :L
I need to start up my workout routine! The bf has already started his, and I can’t lose to him! 😀
My comfiest outfit is my yoga pants and pepto bismol pink North Face fleece.
I try to do the treadmill a few times a week. I really need to get back to the gym though!
I am still in my pajamas 🙂 I might go back to bed,
i need to start slim in 6 again its a killer and im getting fat yo
Just got Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred from Netflix, have yet to do it. I hate working out!
I just started working out again and my favorite places to get running gear are target and Amazon. Target has cute cheap gear for weight classes and yoga, while Amazon is great for deals on running gear.
I’ve been having a Bridezillas marathon and loving it! I know it’s horrible, but this show makes me laugh so much.
My favourite mascara has to be blinc. It has the longevity of a waterproof but comes off with hot water- just awesome. I can cry, run, do yoga, bike, nap with this stuff on and it won’t smudge or flake. It just rocks! Thanks for the giveaway!
I always wear makeup while I workout:) My favorite workout pants are Lululemon, and I LOVE almond butter!!
I’m crazy about working out. I workout six days of the week and then on three days I do weight training. I love it! Although I do miss the days of free gym in college.
I hate bananas! Something about the way they smell…
I love makeup with lots of color! I just got the Urban Decay book if shadows (the latest edition) and I live it!
My workout of choice is running outside. When I can’t do that I use the EFX machine. I never wear makeup to workout. Thanks for the giveaway
My favorite workout is zumba! 🙂
Right now I’m using Fairydrops Scandal Queen Mascara, which is a tubular, water-resistant mascara. I like the actual product, but I’m not loving the price tag ($24 is just too much for mascara).
I love to dance! It is my fav workout!
I like to walk every day.
My favorite workout right now is Insanity by Beachbody! Have you tried it?? I am almost done with the first round….time for some new workout clothes for me too! Have you gone shopping yet? Which brand did you choose? I love lululemon but I wear mostly Champion, it’s easier on the pocketbook!
I love to do dance-based workouts (like Body Jam or Zumba) or TRX!
I never wear makeup When I work out…
I just started working out and I’m loving it! even when I wake up feeling all sore the day after. I don’t put any make up on just lip gloss 🙂
it’s my birthday but I’m to sick to go out… but i did found some great nail polish, it’s amazing color:))
Hey girl, as a fellow D cup gal, I know the importance of a good sports bra. It’s a bit pricey but I’ve heard that the Freya Active line has great picks and good support (http://www.freyalingerie.com/active/sports.aspx), and Coobie bras are really comfy and are good for workouts and a more affordable option (http://shopcoobie.com/shop?c=bras). Best of luck! xoxo
I love swimming, I find it that it works out my whole body and I don’t feel sore in the same way the day after. I try to combine both though since it is probably the best way to do it. Thanks for the give away Karen!!
the weather in SoCal’s a teensy weensy bit warmer today so i’m going swimming! wheee!
I wish I worked out more. So unmotivated!
i get all my workout gear on sale – nike and zella- just got a long sleeved nike dri-fit shirt- in pink!- for about $13 at macy’s prez day sale. i haven’t had good luck with less expensive brands- most times, they either fall apart too quickly or just don’t fit right. nordies always has nike and zella in their sales. the only problem i ever had with zella was wearing pink or blue shirts to bikram and the colors ran all over my towel. (and me)
I’d love to win this – NARS Gaiety is calling my name!
Hi, I’m @lyssypoobears on twitter! My favorite high protein after workout snack is a banana with peanut butter on it. Simple yet super yummy!
I love bananas. Love them on a PB sandwich (with or with out honey), on my cereal, and plain. I can only buy them during the cold months though, as hot & muggy weather does horrible things to my basement apt & worse things to my bananas.
I love my lulu lemon pants, I wear them to workout and throughout my day! They are amazing but too bad for the price!! 🙁 thanks for the opportunity to win!
I don’t really work out. I really should, but I never get around to it.
I hate bananas!
I love bananas! The perfect food. 🙂
Can’t wait to go on my vacay!
You rock, Karen!
Okay, so really though… I’m so over this whole spring thing, I want summer and all of their fabulous makeup collection releases! Horrible?
I haven’t been working out lately because I’m too lazy to do so during my period, but I have been doing the Insanity workout with my room, and, DAAAYUM, nothing about it is fun, but it kicks yo butt! I’ll tell you more about it another time! 🙂
I recently treated myself to a very nice exercise bike. Our old crummy one finally broke after 10 years. Since I have a nice one I have been using it regularly since Dec!
i love frozen bananas thrown into a smoothie made with greek yogurt MMMMMMMMMMM
I should really work out more. I’ve been really lazy lately..

Thanks for the giveaway! I received my Sephora order with Nars Mexican Rose yesterday. So pretty! Haven’t worn it yet but swatched it on my hand and it left a stain even after washing. Excited to try it out 🙂
most comfortable outfit… sweat pants and a sweatshirt — VS PINK line is the best!!
Thank you for the entry!
I just got one of those “Couch to 5K” apps – I’ve always wanted to be one of those girls who can run for fun. I guess its coming… slowly but surely.
Thanks for the giveaway! Loooove bananas (love plantains, too!). and I love to eat them both (not simultaneously, tho) in my fav outfit, jens, tees and sneakers. And I especially love to nap with my kitties!
Oh I love bananas. My parents named me accordingly, as I loved banana baby food. My bf also calls me Bananna :3 Man, I could go for a banana right now. They’re creamy, sweet, healthy, but delicious at the same time!
I hate working out! I do not wear make up when working out because I hate wearing make up while sweating. 🙂
Makeup and exercise (which for me consists of dance), do not go well together. Only exception is for shows, but that’s a whole other story.
I used to love bananas, but I quit eating them when I found worms in the last batch I bought from the grocery store, eww!
Love to win for wife
I love Bananas! and the only workout I ever do is when I randomly play Just Dance 2 or 3
Ah, workout gear! I upgraded some of my winter workout gear this year, and found that the long-sleeved workout tees (scoop neck version) from H&M are really fantastic, and are the best-fitting that I’ve found in years. The fit is close to the body, but not so snug that it restricts movement and are loose enough to wear a tank and sports bra comfortably underneath.
I’ve had a decent experience with a C9 sports bra purchased at Target last month, even though I normally go for higher-end, sturdy sports bras.
Thanks for another great giveaway opportunity, Karen!
I hope George Clooney wins Best Actor tomorrow night!
Bananas are evil.
Currently my favorite is Maybelline Falsies WP, lurve it.
sweats are definitely the most comfortable things to wear.
I don’t wear much to begin with so I don’t mind wearing makeup to the gym. I only have 3 necessary things I must put on: brows, liner, and concealer for my undereyes.
I always end up wearing makeup when I workout, which is probably bad for my skin…oops!
Hey Karen, happy weekend! It’s Saturday night here already. We just came back from a sushi dinner, and now I’m playing go fetch with kitten Muffin 🙂
Sunny @ Mostly Sunny recently posted … Swatch & Review: As NARS Would Have it, My Love Is a Mexican Rose (Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil)
It’s said that getting a great body has the most to do with a good diet.
For me, I *must* exercise too – not to fuel the burn fire, but because I find exercising really helps me eat better. I happen to know the calories for just about everything & that 1 hershey kiss = 25cal = 1/4 mile…. Math like that helps me realize that 1 really don’t want to have to run a FULL MILE for just 4 hershey kisses….
Love doing zumba, bellydancing, hip hop, and pole fitness! Fun ways to get in shape!
yoga is my fave. 🙂
Hmm my current fave workout routine is most likely just plain running..I do want to incorporate some muscle-toning exercises but I haven’t found good consistent ones to work out my problem areas =/
I love aero dance and the only makeup that I wear when I’m exercising is lip balm. 😉
I’m really getting into yoga now.
I’m a straight up gym rat!
i just bought some new soap to clean my brushes with! 🙂
i love sephora! my favorite store!
I’ve been reading M&BB for a year now 🙂 love you Karen
Butt bible on comcast is awesome as a workout!
My favorite workouts are running and zumba. Don’t like makeup on my face when sweating but I do use lip balm to keep my lips moisturized.
I started following YouTube work out videos and they are perfect for busy schedules! I just search one up and do it right in my apartment 🙂
The weather here in Tampa is so beautiful today! 70F, clear and sunny! It’s so cheering and motivating! I’ve cleaned my house, now time to shower and head to the store!

No make up while working out. That is a big no no for me. On another note, I love bananas!
Hey Karen!
I love using a sheer concealer for everyday, my favourite is MAC Sheer Coverup.
I just started working out, right now my favorite workout activity is jogging. I just love it, it’s so relaxing and fun. 😀
Lazy Saturday inside the house. Great way to spend a weekend.
Just baked some madeleines for a charity fundraiser!
I love bananas, it’s my favorite fruit!
If I need a really waterproof mascara, Ill pick maybelline the falsies waterproof, because that stuff does. not . come. off.
My Favorite yoga pants come from Old Navy. Now if only the yoga teacher at the Y was nicer…:(
love your crazy cat lady tweets/posts
I love a good banana split…so good. Probably not good to talk about when you talk about working out..haha 🙂
I actually don’t work out enough, but I really need to. Maybe if I had a workout buddy I would
I’m currently not exercising… I’ve just been finding it so hard! It’s horrible 🙁

Way too lazy to exercise! Need to win this for some more nail polish or perfume!
Love bananas!
I love to mix bananas into smoothies. My favorite waterproof mascara right now is Maybelline One By One Volum’express.
I just picked up the new benefit foundation because it looked great on you and I loved your review! Please do a review on the new NARS tinted moisturizer because I’m excited about that product as well. 🙂
i really love pets but the only thing that i don’t like about them is the fur =.= they get all over my clothes….
Hey Karen! I was actually JUST at Sephora…I swear I’m addicted! I bought Smashbox’s Artificial Light luminizer and the Make Up For Ever Full Coverage Concealer.
I love boot camp-style workouts. I started up (again) in January and I haven’t missed a day since.
Love group workouts: Cycling, Boot Camp, Zumba So much fun and feelsnas if you are not working out!
I love doing workout DVDs.
Yes, love bananas. Eat one every morning.
I just had a baby three months ago, and I need to exercise…but I’m sooo busy!
Happy weekend everyone, stay safe!
I love pilates!
I run and do all these crazy ab exercises!
Road Runner Sports (in San Diego and online) is all about high quality workout clothes at decent prices. Victoria’s Secret Pink is tacky (“Pink” stamped on your butt is so wannabe Juicy 2003. Aka over).

I LOVE to run– best therapy ever!
Thank you for the giveaway Karen! Have a nice weekend! =)
the best sports bras i’ve ever found are the champion ones from target with the thin straps. so much support (and i need it!) and i LOVE the old navy yoga pants. the only issue i have is that after you wash them, some stay the way they were and some strech a little. but they’re a great deal for the money!
My most comfortable outfit is from New York & Co.. I could live in their Streetwear Slim pants, long tee and flyaway cardigan! It’s like wearing pajamas but looks great!
I will wear makeup if I go to the gym after work because I am inherently lazy and I don’t if I go on the weekends.
I’ve been fighting a cold for the last 3 days, so I’ve been on a short sabbatical from exercise. I usually do elliptical (love my life fitness machine!), yoga, & pilates. I haven’t been eating much, but I’m starting to get my appetite back–unfortunately I’m craving carrot cake instead of a nice, healthy salad.
i try to get my 15 incline walks in everyday
I love love love your blog and am completely and utterly OBSESSED with makeup like you have no idea!!! I am also currently obsessing over winning tickets for the ONE DIRECTION concert in Australia. I love them too!!!! Its really hot today :):) MAKEUP IS MY LIFE!!

I just stumbled across your website how glad I am its brilliant i have one to http://www.lippyeyes.com this shows my real passion for hair and make up Im currently studying media make up and hair design which is amazing.
I never wear make up when I excersie, thats a lie I always have to make my eyebrows look good by filling them in and extending them only slightly this gives me the confidence to get my excersise clothes out and head on over to zumba (dance class) which might i add is amazing.
I <3 Make up and I now <3 ur website 😀
xx
I tried to wear make up while I work out, but my skin feels weird! =P
Hey Karen,
So i just recently found out my cat is a boy after having “her” for almost 9 months hahaha. It takes some getting used to calling her a him, but I’m sure i will get used to it!
Oh, and my favorite type of masacara is Dior Show
Following you on twitter & tweeted:

No joke, I love to run.
Super cold and chilly here!
My favorite is pilates! A hundred will earn you a six pack!
Can’t wait for Oscars tomorrow – what to cook??????
I am trying to win this bid for a canon s95… I hope I win lol.
Hey Gorgeous! My boyfriend and I do P90X and we’re starting our 2nd round this Monday! So excited!
Just came back from miami, and you should check out victoria secret for workout clothes! But lululemon is defs worth investing in!
I always try to take off face makeup when I work out. I don’t want to clog any pores. Sometimes I leave eye makeup on and my non waterproof mascara usually doesn’t run (only a tiny bit on the bottom) :).
I’ve been trying to start working out regularly but I haven’t exactly been successful.
Favorite workout routine: Warm up on elliptical, stair master, then run 1 mile! Do lunges and my blitz ab routine that has been working for years.
I love Adidas workout clothes. However, there’s an awesome brand called Alo that has caught my eye. LOVE LOVE LOVE their stuff! I’m drooling over some shirts they have.
Thanks for the giveaway, Karen! Hope you’re having a lovely Saturday so far 😀 Wish me luck on my tests this next week!
My favorite workout activity? HIP HOP classes at the gym! I used to take all sorts of dance classes, and hip hop is so much fun to learn!
I’m loving Zumba at the moments it’s so fun I forget it’s exercise 🙂
I wear tinted moisturiser or bb cream to the gym with a coat of lip balm , I like to look healthy and glowing during a workout rather than made up x
I dnt workout but if I did I sure wouldn’t be wearing any makeup doing so, maybe some flavored lipgloss and that’s about it.
I avoid exercising like the plague!
I like the workout clothes from Target. It helps that they’re affordable. And yes, I wear makeup when I work out. I wear makeup just about all the time so I would have to wash it off before working out and reapply after working out…. which I think is a little overkill :). Besides, workouts are good tests of certain types of makeup :).
While working out I don’t usually wear more than under eye concealer and brow powder. I don’t like the feeling and idea of my makeup sweating off so I avoid wearing face makeup.
Err… So I broke down and purchased the Guerlain Météorites Cruel Gardenia when I saw it in stock. It’s gorgeous… but I really should be watching my pennies. What to do?!!!?!?!?
I need to start working out! I usually love doing cardio and some weights too. I have the clothes and shoes..I just need to get on a consistant schedule, once I start I know I’ll be okay. It’s been a tough year for my working out resolution since my one workout buddy (best friend/sister) lost her life to ovarian cancer on Valentine’s Day. 🙁 I do wear some makeup when I work out, just a little bit of foundation to even out some post breakout marks, light eyeliner and my favorite mascara to wear with anything. I love Clinique’s Lash Power mascara because it’s water-resistant but comes off with warm water.
I love MUFE’s Aqua Smoky Lash ! 🙂
I usually wear makeup when I workout!
I’m watching vintage episodes of Boy Meets World instead of being productive.
I usually wear a little powder and eyeliner when I go to the gym. I never wear a full face of makeup when I work out, but I don’t go anywhere completely bare-faced either. Never know who you’ll run into. 😀
I like buying workout clothes but I never seem to work out… hmm, should fix that.
I found some good workout bras and pants at Marshall’s.
I have been trying to find a good foundation. I think mufe hd 123 is a good match for me. If I win the gift card I’ll be able to afford it! Yay
Haven’t figured out what can motivate me to work out – guessing ice cream would be counter productive?
I love Zumba!! =D
EXERCISE IS THE DEVIL
xD
I haven’t worked out in forever! Going to start going back to my Zumba classes soon. My workout buddy, my nana, hurt her back. 🙁 When I go to Zumba though, I love to wear tinted moisturizer, lip balm, and maybe a little mascara.
I have nothing bad to say about bananas. I should be sick of them by now but I love them. And makeup when you’re working out just sounds uncomfortable and messy.
My metabolism is high so I don’t exercise that much.
Yeah!
I just started a new internship this week that may or may not be my dream job – I’m really excited for it but a bit scared to see how well I’ll be able to balance work and school at the same time!
I am not exercise, I am too lazy 😀 but I really should do something…
I don’t work out, I train horses so that’s my exercise every day – I do love workout gear though, and for some reason have a whole drawerful, just in case I guess! Athleta has fab stuff – pricey but very cute:)

Bananas!
I now kick box. It’s pretty freaking awesome
Would looove a $50 eGift Card, French girl trying to come to New York as often as she can 🙂
i want to try hot yoga!!
I don’t want to work on my paper tonight ughh
My favorite workout activity right now is my Zumba 2 for the Wii…it’s awesome!!
I work out at Barry’s Boot Camp in West Hollywood. And I love Lululemon! It’s expensive, but lasts forever and fits the best. I always wear some makeup when I work out. I’m so pale, I at least need blush. LOVE your blog so much!! 🙂
I haven’t been able to find a Zumba class that’s convenient, so instead I dance around my room like a crazy person. 😀
I love a new workout outfit, too. It really does help to keep me motivated.
I will wear tinted moisturizer and some light concealer when I work out. Nothing more though.
HMMM…I guess I’ll answer ALL of the questions! 🙂
I do currently exercise and my current favorite workout activity is definitely running around the lake in my complex. It’s so much easier than crunches and push-ups! I don’t wear makeup when I exercise because I really don’t even like the idea of sweat and makeup coexisting. So, unless I’m going to the gym where there are people I know and I don’t want to be bare-faced around them, I skip the makeup. As for bananas, I like the way they taste, but I hate the texture. My favorite waterproof mascara is Diorshow Waterproof Mascara. I don’t have a workout buddy because I’m not comfortable being super sweaty and gross around other people….yikes! 🙁 I think my most comfortable outfit consists of a T-shirt and comfy sweats.
Usually my exercise of choice is outdoor running, but I’ve been spinning through the winter to maintain endurance and it is awesome.
I’ve been following your blog for a couple of years and this is my first time trying for one of these giveaways haha.
Booked my flight for Switzerland today!
To be honest, I think it’s a little silly when people wear makeup to the gym-you’re just going to sweat it off! To me, it’s a little bit like putting on makeup before you go to sleep-pointless. Besides, you’d just have to reapply your makeup afterwards anyway since it would be all gross and runny. But, I guess to each his own
I’m doing boot camp classes for spring break!
I personally like bananas, but my boyfriend is extremely allergic to them
after workout , wemust banana and blueberry yoghurt.sounds yummy and healthy…..BTw thanx for the giveaway…love u
my mom is my workout buddy it’s great 🙂
I love exercise.
I work out more now than I ever have before, which is saying a lot because I was on active duty for the U.S. Army two years ago. I love weight training and setting new personal records (that’s what keeps me motivated), but my all time favorite thing is running. It can be unenjoyable while actually running, but no other work out I have done can compare to the feeling that running leaves you with. My motivation to keep going is just knowing that after each work out I will be just a tiny bit healthier than I was before. I won’t be just another American suffering from obesity.
When I workout I’m usually not worried about my makeup or what I’m wearing. I just want to be comfortable and presentable. It looks a little ridiculous when I see women all dressed up, with a fresh face of makeup on. Just do you, and wear and do what makes you feel good.
On another note, I just got out of the military, after being in the Air Force for 8 years, last month, and I’m having a lot of fun with makeup that I was never able to wear before. I started a blog recently and would like to get more members to my page, so your Giveaway idea really gave me some food for thought. I think I’ll be doing a giveaway pretty soon too, so Thank you!
I love a smokey eye with hot pink lips!
I totally understand, Karen! I like to wear nice gym clothes too when I work. It’s actually a very good extra motivator. When you look good, you feel good and you want to do your best to keep it that way!
By the way, I LOVE your makeup look in the last post, with the Dolce & Gabbana eyeliners. You looks beautiful!
i need to start working out and stop just wearing the clothes!!!
love running and yoga!
Hmmm…all I have to say is that your blog is a very bad influence.
I’ve been working out but I hate it! No matter how much I try to get into it… I can’t. But it has to be done. I wanna feel great!
I just need to motivate myself to exercise…maybe some new gear would help!
I eat a lot of bananas and always try to keep it in stock in my apt!
I do DanceIT dance aerobics at my local community center! It is a super fun way to get fit.
I do martial arts. You feel accomplished as you reach higher levels, plus you’ll (hopefully!) be able to defend yourself in dangerous situations. And be able to do a pushup (that’s my greatest accomplishment, don’t laugh!).
NY&Co did workout wear a couple years back and I have three outfits from them that I really like – I must have been the only one who did, because I don’t think I’ve seen the line in the store since. I have been terrible about working out and need to start going again, actually.
i feel pretty good about bananas
I’m craving a dessert….i should be eating fruit but chocolate cake sounds sooooo much better!
This reminds me… I need to exercise!
ech-eks-eccccch… exxxxercise? nah! never heard of it
I don’t really have an exercise routine, but my college campus is HUGE and I don’t have a car anyway, so I spend about 45 mins to an hour everyday briskly walking where I need to go. What is silly is that I lug my hand weights with me everytime I move back into an appartment for school, but I never use them. I need to start. :3
My favorite comfortable outfit is a cotton jersey empire dress. It’s a long sleeved maxi dress. I have about 5 or them. I wear them while at home. Love them.
I do try to exercise regularly but since I dislike exercising, I don’t have a favorite activity 🙂
speaking of excercise lol… i need to go to the gym
My favorite exercise machine is the elliptical. but my favorite exercise activity is bike riding – spring is almost here and I can’t wait!
My workout routine is vacuuming the house…. who needs the gym!
I am loving Zumba right now!
Had a great saturday with my family, looking forward to a relaxing Sunday 🙂
getting ready to go out… sure could use some new colors..
only eye makeup while working out
Hi Karen, please pick me !
My favorite exercise routine is the elytpical machine!
I desperately need to stop buying nail polish. Also, based on past purchases, I cannot stop paining my nails for …. quite some time. 🙂 Love the site!
I usually walk, but I just bought an awesome bike!
I exercise with make-up on~always have to have my foundation on!!
Have an aloha filled day
Ahaha, bananas are my favorite fruit :D!
I’m on spring break but I have so much work to do D: Two papers and studying for two tests as soon as school starts back up. Bluh!
My workout buddy is my dog! 😀
right now i love high interval training and buxom lip gloss
I need to workout more than I do! Wah.
My workout partner is my 4 year old daughter. She’s always on me about making sure I exercise. Now that im 5 months pregnant, she makes me get up and move around so that the new baby “has fun”.
I dance! Three times a week when I’m lucky!
I power walk 3 miles every day.
Have you tried Meleau Port from Ports of New York? It is AMAZING!!!
To get my best complexion, I try to start my day with a cardio or hot yoga work out to get sweaty. The more sweat, the more dirt and left over makeup get pushed out of my pores. Washing your face with a gel cleanser after exercising will wash away everything that the sweat brings up–creating the perfect slate for skin care and makeup products. Some of my favorite work outs: Jillian Michaels’ Yoga Work Out DVD–it comes with two 30-min routines that I cannot get sick of! 🙂
I like wearing Uggs when it’s cold outside and I hope I win the giftcard.
I usually work out in the morning, before I shower and get ready for work, so no makeup for me.
Hmm… My mom is my workout buddy, and sometimes a good friend of hers, because she likes to run marathon, and I prefer to run vs other ways of exercise. I never work out too much, and I just get lazy. 😛
Bananas? Love ’em.
I wish I had the energy to work out more but with 2 kids, it’s almost impossible!
need to get back on track!
I just started to eat healthier and workout as well and I feel great! I think that Old Navy has the best workout clothes and they are always on sale! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
When the snow is gone im gonna exercise again 😛
I would love to get that new Chloe perfume at Sephora, so here’s to being lucky!
I hate running but I make myself do the couch to 10K program just so that hopefully….I’ll enjoy it more after getting better endurance.
Here’s to hoping!
I do heated vinyasa yoga and I never wear makeup when I work out. I sweat wayyy to much and end up wiping the sweat out of my eyes and off of my face that I can’t imagine any would stay on at all.
I want to try Zumba. Everyone seems to love it. Right now I do Cardio/Strength Intervals, Weight Training, Yoga and Pilates. I love it.
melodyj(at)gmail(dot)com
Yes, I exercise. My favorite workout activity is Zumba. I love bananas. I eat one almost daily. I don’t wear makeup when I exercise. My favorite waterproof mascara is Maybelline Full n Soft. I don’t have a workout buddy. My favorite comfortable outfit is leggings, a tunic and boots.
Lately, I’ve been doing Crossfit. It’s super fun, and really kicks my butt.
I don’t work out as much as I want to! Jogging and Yoga are my exercise of choice though
I love being on the stationary bike!
My only workout buddy is my ipod – though I haven’t been to the gym in ages! I bike everywhere on my college campus, so hopefully that makes up for it (yeah, right lol).
Relationships are hard work. 🙁 Have a good weekend, Karen!
I like the elliptical!
I am current training myself to run and I add 30 more seconds ever week. Love your blog and God bless
MoniqueHasana@hotmail.com
I haven’t found any other workout pants/shorts more comfortable, stylish, durable, and butt-flattering than Lululemon’s. I hate that they’re so expensive, but at least they last a long time. I do go cheap on my non-fashion swimsuits. Sporti bathing suits and bikinis are cute, functional, AND affordable – perfect for swim days and water aerobics (just make sure to size up as they do run small).
Need to work out more as I have fallen off the wagon 🙁 But when I do work out its all about the running and the weights! I usually have on makeup as I don’t take off my makeup until the end of the day which is after working out before bed!
uh…makeup while I exercise? No way!
Reading The Illustrated Man right now and really enjoying it!
I just think its a hazard to wear makeup while working out. Lately my routine has been starting from Monday, pilates, zumba, yoga, zumba and on Saturdays, weightlifting class. I’ve seen my jiggles don’t jiggle as much, which is a plus but i want a tone, firm body!
I love bananas and my workout of choice would be Zumba… It’s so much fun!
Ballet all day everyday
Sunday morning, I take a shower, put on my fave 1989 Levis 501 and my old cashmere sweater, a ponytail, a bit of Stereo Rose on my cheeks for that healthy glow, I groom my brows, a bit of mascara and shiny lip balm, my old baby pink Converse and I take my dog out. And I breathe, breathe, breathe. Feel good. Walk for 2 hours and give a call to a beloved one, for nothing. Just to say “Have I ever told you that I was happy to know you and have you around?” and put a smile on someone’s face. I come back, have a green tea, an apple and simply feel….alive and happy. Another day begins, full of possibilities.
Bananas + Nutella = awesomeness.
My favorite workout activity is to go shopping lol, I can walk for 3hours without stopping xD

I really like new mac collection – mac shop/mac cook
In love with makeup forever lipsticks!! =thebest
Bananas are cool enough. I had a dream last night where I was eating them.
My favourite waterproof mascara is MUFE Aqua Smoke <3
Hot yoga is AWESOME, but unfortunately the one in my city is sooo far away from my house… I love exercise DVDs though, and there is this one really old one called Callanetics that has the best moves… it looks really lame (filmed in the 80s), but once you learn the moves you can mute it and listen to music while you follow it! 🙂
It’s been way too long since I’ve gotten to shop at Sephora.
I have recently started morning walk, its not been even a month but I feel Super through the day and feels like the usual day is just a bit extended with a couple of extra hours! More time, More work, More fun and more life!
Favorite workout is probably DANCE CENTRAL!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
Happy Sunday!
I currently work out kind of infrequently. When I do work out, my routine is to run a mile and half on the treadmill and then stumble around the weights section. I typically go to the gym straight from work, so I wear whatever make up I had on that day.
The only exercising I do is opening the fridge to see what’s inside.
Come on lady luck! I have been obsessing over NARS eyeshadows lately. It would be fantastic to indulge in a little retail therapy. Thanks for the giveaway!
I love bananas. I fact, I am making banana bread this morning…
I teach Zumba and it is definitely my favourite, but I also run, do step, kickboxing, dance classes, walking….mostly because I really, really like eating.
I always crush the top of the banana before eating it 😛
I am trying to keep a make up routine everyday!! 🙂
xx
Love bananas…love to walk, hike, swim, and dance. Have a beautiful day!
definitely no makeup while exercising! :O
My favourite waterproof mascara is High Impact Curling Mascara
My workouts are extremely limited right now; I’m about two weeks away from having a baby. So I’ve totally lost my abs, but that’s okay, because I’ve been working out buns and thighs. I do wear makeup, because I’m not breaking a sweat with the little I can do. Sephora gift card = very good eye cream for very tired mom.
I’ve always disliked bananas (unless I also have a dish of peanut butter and honey!). But I’m studying abroad this year, and suddenly a banana among the mounds of oranges and hard pears is so very exciting!
I love bananas 🙂
i love waffles
love/hate relationship with my treadmill!
Exercising: why is it so hard?
My favorite is the rowing machine, but I’ll be honest: I don,t visitate her (it’s a she!) nearly enough, or at all, in the last weeks. Shame on me!
thanks Karen!
I love bananas!! full of potassium!
Love to exercise, especially Turbo Jam! Makes exercising fun!
I like bananas and your blog
I love zumba, but need to find a way to do it on a regular basis instead of just once a week
mMMm…coffee
I like banana bread or banana muffins, but otherwise hate anything with banana!
I love riding my bike, but need to do it more!
I’ve been trying trying to get back into the workout mode. I went to my gym the other day to try a beginners spinning class but it ass cancelled 🙁
I never wear makeup at the gym. It’s so bad for your skin plus you are just going to sweat it off.
I actually like the treadmill, I have one at home so its easy just to hop on and get a good workout.
No workout for me, thanks!
bad day y’day … one of my car windows got smashed by some punk during the night…
I just started exercising again after a winter hibernation. I don’t want to deal with my spring and summer clothes being too tight, so I’m upping the activity level now.
I’m allergic to hazelnuts. 🙁
Not nutella for me
Waiting for the Oscars’s!
I don’t wear makeup when exercising.
Wore EvRev last Sunday to my own babyshower. It was sunshine glory!
I don’t believe you should wear makeup while you exercise. It’s just gonna sweat off anyway. I barely work out but when I do I like to do zumba 🙂
Just got a coupon to go out to the club so I would need some hot makeup!
I just recently rediscovered how much I like bananas.
I usually don’t wear makeup while I workout.. when I sweat, it tends to drip in my eyes… which means I get make up in my eye! 🙁
such an amazing giveaway! i love sephora!!! I work out pretty much everyday now doing kickboxing or running. i love it! i have 20 lbs to lose so i’m motivated!! 🙂
I like the flavor of bananas, but hate the little strips of icky flesh that peel off, you know?
Love your blog! 🙂
I just ordered Nails Inc.’s Baker St. and cannot wait till I try it on. I love bright, vibrant blues!
I never wear makeup when I exercise.
i don’t exercise much, but when i do, NO MAKEUP!! i don’t want my sweat mixing with my makeup and clogging my pores yuck
I love all of the random questions you ask. I happen to love bananas. Let’s see, it’s cold and it snowed 7 inches where I live. Perfect for skiing! This is me trying to make the best out of winter. Anyway love your blog! Pc
ZUMBA! yeah baby
I’ve been lusting over hosiery and tights lately even though it’s too cold here for me not to cover my legs in thick layers!
I try not to wear makeup when exercising.
My kitty Rocco says “Meow” (hello) to you and Tabs! 🙂
I don’t wear makeup when exercising- it’s just too gross. And my favorite waterproof mascara is Blinc- it’s not the greatest in a lot of ways, but the fact that it is SO easy to remove and yet never comes off during the day makes it my favorite.
I never wear make-up while exercising. I find it kind of pointless… for me, exercising/gym is not a place to flaunt my making-up abilities… and after all, I’m going to end up looking a washed-up zombie with sweat all around, and a little bit of eyeliner wouldn’t help my look, either :D. Also, only a certain amount of make-up products are really that long-lasting not to start pouring down on my face after sweating, and I sweat badly (+ somewhat oily skin)… and most of those stuff are not in my budget. so… yeah. that’s it :).
I love bananas! Great for cramps!
Just had a banana actually!
I’m excited to start exercising again when the snow melts!
I hate working out!
🙂
My favorite workout activity is Zumba!
I like working out to exercise videos in the comfort of my home (no makeup required!)
I am mildly allergic to bananas sadly, but I still eat it (: haha. i do not wear makeup when I work out, afraid it’s gonna sweat off my face and make it look blotchy so I don’t really see a point! (:
I’m enjoying a Storage Wars marathon, happy Sunday!
I don’t wear makeup when working out! I am drinking iced coffee right now, and it isn’t even warm out!
My clothes have to be comfortable when I work out. Most especially: NO WEDGIES! I’ll deal with sweat. I’ll deal with hair flopping in my face. I will not deal with wedgies. I’ve actually stopped a work out because it was so uncomfortable.
I must start working out again…
Generally, I don’t like exercise. However, I don’t mind it if I’m doing something fun. Currently, I keep in shape by taking Karate.
I change into my gym clothes ahead of time so that when I actually head to the gym it seems like less of a chore
I try to workout everyday
Hello Karen! Hope I win! 🙂 Oh yes, and I work out maybe only once a week, but I do walk about 3 miles a day with my doggie!
Ooh, exercise! I love the Les Mills classes, particularly BodyStep and BodyCombat for cardio and BodyFlow for some stretching and strengthening.
I like to look cute at the gym. You never know when your gonna meet a cutie 😉
Bananas are good! Always take a banana to a party.
Swimming is the best workout because it doesn’t strain your muscles. 🙂 Although, the chlorine is a downer
Happy Sunday, Karen!

Dance is my favorite workout activity!
I know it’s expensive, but I still think Lululemon makes the most awesome workout gear!
My go to workout is just running. However, I’ve been thinking about trying spinning just because I’ve search that it’s such an intense workout – but I’m scared to try!
I am home sick with strep throat today, so my comfy “outfit” is my pajamas!
I’m not working out much at the moment (gasp!) but when I do I always take off my makeup beforehand, usually with a MAC wipe. My most comfortable outfit is my DKNY velour tracksuit since it’s soft and flexible.
i hardly exercise…even though i should 🙁
My current favorite mascara is the Clinique Lash Power mascara!!
can’t decide between a chanel or MUFE foundation for my wedding day 🙁
hope ure well!
Watching the Oscars. why?
yea… i really do need to start working out again!!
My favorite workout activity is strength training. 🙂
My work-out routine is through Wii games! lol those ones that make you dance!!
The oscars are wonderful
Super excited about girl scout cookies!!!
Pajamas are the comfiest hands down!
I just came back from Ireland this weekend and I can’t wait to go back. I did some wallet damage at Boots. =)
I hate bananas lol
oooh can’t wait!!
loving Revlon’s nail polish in “carbonite.”
I’ve been doing Zumba with my mom at one of our local gyms. It’s a fun way to do cardio 🙂
I just leave my makeup on, even though i swim or sweat a lot.
Dance Dance Revolution!!
I love bananas!
I am so not a fan of waterproof mascara. It just seems to go on thinner and even shinier, which I don’t like. It’s not the actual fact of whether it’s washable or not that I mind–I use some longwear shadow sticks and waterproof liquid liner and don’t have a problem with using some remover to get it off.
I don’t like eating bananas straight up, but I do love them dipped in chocolate and frozen. Also in smoothies.
Bananas are my favorite fruit, so portable and easy to eat. I try to walk at least 10,000 steps a day and do some videos for aerobic activity – usually before I’ve put on my makeup.
I just can’t find the time to exercise. Thank you for the chance!
Ah, favorite comfy outfit would be my fiance’s boxer shorts and an old tshirt! Lol!
Favorite workout routine is dashing from my 11:45 class to my 11:50 MWF mornings! Haha.
I danced A LOT yesterday and now my calves are super sore. D;
Love this blog! Have you tried blind mascara?? Love it!
My favorite waterproof mascara is MUFE Aqua Smoky Lash or Maybelline the Falsies Mascara from a drugstore.
I love, love, love my yoga. I started doing it about a year after I hurt my back, as a progression from the physical therapy I was doing. I like that it can be as easy or hard as you like, depending on how you’re feeling. I also like how non-competitive it is. The fact that it also encourages meditation and a holistic approach to health doesn’t hurt either.

I love wearing a little bit of makeup to work out – it gives me that extra boost to keep going 🙂
I work out in the morning, so I don’t even bother with makeupsince I’ll be showering and it’ll wash all off anyway!
i don’t work out, I’m too lazy! nah, maybe 3x a week I walk on the treadmill
