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

Rise and shine, morning glory!

When I woke up this morning, I heard snoring next to me and turned around expecting it to be El Hub, only to find that it was Tabs. He was sleeping on the bed with his paws crossed over his eyes (it was so cute!).

Maybe he was dreaming about his many kitty adventures, like the time he sailed the seven seas…

In other news, it feels like it’s gonna be a hot one here today. Clear skies and no fog or wind. It’s not even 10 yet, and it’s almost 80 degrees!

I think we might head out to the seashore today — not the Jersey Shore, but the Point Reyes Lighthouse. Do some hiking, hanging out. I might even bring my camera.

Sometimes I wish I could take Tabs hiking with me in one those little baby backpacks (the ones with the hood for shade), but I guess that would look super cat lady…

It would be pretty awesome though.

Now, let’s talk giveaways, shall we? You know what time it is (it’s giveaway time).

What folks are saying…

“Thanks so much, Karen. Just in case you were wondering what I got with it, I decided to go with the Clarisonic Mia–I’ve been wanting it for years now, but have never purchased it because of the price. Your eCard helped me finally buy it! I look forward to using it. Thanks again!”
-Jane

“Shut the front door! OMG Karen, you have made my day. 🙂 I’m sick in bed with the flu and this has just cheered me up immensely!!!!!!!! BTW, I’m the one that sent you that pic of my pug in a wig a few weeks back LOL! Thanks again, honestly, I’m beyond giddy right now.”
-Angel

“Oh my goodness! Thank you so much Karen (and Tabs, of course)! I really appreciate this! I’d been eyeing the Anastasia brow pencil in Strawburn to match my red hair!”
-Chelsea (and Jiji the kitten and Quincy the bunny)

“Never before have I been so pleased to check my email right before bed!!! Thank you so, so much! I truly enjoy your blog and check it almost daily! Thanks again! This made my night!”
-Melissa, Edmond, OK

“Hi Karen. Oh my goodness! I can’t believe I won! :O Thank you so much! You, Tabs, and your blog are amazing! Thank you for keeping me updated on all things beauty and more importantly, for keeping me entertained! Keep doing your thing! 🙂 Thank you again.”
-Jacqueline

“Hi Karen. Thank you so much, I’m so excited, I’ve never won anything before. My name is Hana … I just turned 25 (today is my birthday!) Yay! Thank you.”
-Hana

    Hi Karen: this weekend I need to reorganize my makeup. Over the past month I’ve kind of thrown things in and need to bring my summer colors et al to the front and move some of the darker stuff to the back. I know I’ll feel better during the week when I can just grab what I need without searching for it as I rush to get out the door!

    This will sound very cheesy…
    I’ve recently discovered your blog (I’m from overseas) and I just LOVE it. You have such a unique style of writing and your pictures are so creative. Good job!! I think your Unsung Heroes are also great.

    I broke my nail 2 days ago, went to the salon for repair, came home and opened a milk carton and my nail broke again. Very annoying. But I guess that this is a luxury problem… and when these things happen I think it’s time to put things in perspective and reflect again on what’s really important. But don’t we all love to look our best?

She’s a severe foundationophobe, hardly ever wears any make-up and her current mascara dates from, ooooh, let’s say 3 years ago. Gave a her a subtle golden brown smokey and she LOVED it 🙂 She looked like a million bucks, too.

    Hi Karen-

    It’s a hot one over here in the East Bay, too.

    I’ve never been on a cruise, that I can remember. I was in utero when my mother sailed to Germany to be with my dad (Army Officer). Mother informs me she was sick every day on that ship, which she blames on me. I suppose it really wasn’t a cruise as much as an Atlantic Crossing.

    When we were looking at moving to London, I was worried about getting my dogs over the pond as I won’t fly them. I planned to drive them across country and sail with them on the QEII. At that time the only way to get dogs in from the USA was through Heathrow or on the QEII. The QEII semt me pictures of the Dog Kennels and dog run area. They even had a Kennel Master. Alas, we ended up not moving. But how cool would it have been to say that I had sailed on the QEII with my dogs!

    I love the picture! If I saw a dinosaur at the beach, I might die of happiness – I’m super obsessed with dinosaurs. We used to go to Knott’s Berry Farm a lot when I was a kid, and one time I made my parents go on this time machine ride that had animatronic dinosaurs eight times in a row. It was pretty old and slow, so no one else was in line. It may have been raining on my face a little when I found out they closed that ride in 2005. 🙁

    As for maintenance, I’ll probably be doing my nails this weekend or early next week – I’m headed to Comic-Con, and it’ll drive me crazy if I have chipped polish or a hangnail while I’m waiting in those long lines!

So, this weekend I’m going to take a long relaxing & pampering bath, give myself a mani, spiff up my pedi, read my new issues of Lucky, People Style Watch, InStyle, Family Circle, & finish The Bloggess’s book (which is freaking amazing & hysterical) during & in between everything.

    I love cruises! I had so much fun when I went to the Bahamas and it was the first time I went on a cruise and to be out on the sea! And I am happy that I found out I don’t get sea sick Yay :-)! The only part that sucked was that I actually gained like 10 pounds on that cruise 🙁 (tear tear) , but the food was so good that I could not resist trying almost everything they had!

    Cruise: I’ve been on a cruise! It was from Long Beach to Ensenada, Mexico. I was still in elementary school though. Or was it Jr. High, it was so long ago. I just remember LOVING their rolls and butter.
    Do you ever get seasick? No, but carsick, sometimes. 🙁
    When was the last time you went hiking? Two years ago, possibly. It was up to an observatory, which was nie.
    Do you wear makeup when you go to a pool or beach? I’ve yet to go to a pool or beach since I’ve gotten into makeup, but I went to an amusement park with soaking water rides.. I wore my waterproof eyeliner 🙂
    Beauty Maintenance: A bit of plucking, and self-manicure!

    I barely wear makeup in the summer (I feel so sweaty and yucky) so definitely not at the pool or beach! If anything I’ll wear a tinted lip balm with spf.

    Hi Karen! I just got back today from an overnight camping trip. We were able to get some time in the water to splash around, so even though I felt grungy the entire time, I had a good time! I think one night is my limit though. 😀

    Yes I wear makeup to the beach, but minimal. I wear sunscreen (Josie Maran spf 40) and bare minerals foundation. Lots of lip gloss and that’s it. It probably fades by the end of the day but at least I started out on a good note! Thanks for the giveaway. Your blog is so much fun to read every day.

    After being a longtime online-only Sephora shopper, I had a chance to visit an actual Sephora store for the very first time this weekend when I was visiting my sister in Dallas. I was surprised that several of the things I really liked were things I’d probably NEVER have ordered just looking at them online. While I haven’t bought anything yet, I came back from the trip excited to getting out of my neutrals-only palette and adding some color to my life. 🙂

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).
