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

When he comes home from work in the afternoons, takes off his jacket and shoes and walks over to me for a kiss, I see his eyes smile the moment I say, “Hi, sweetie.”

That’s one of the things I — that I know El Hub loves the sound of my voice because I can see it in his eyes.

Good morning, young lady. Is it raining where you are? Here we are again, another Saturday morning. I think we’re the first ones up. It’s very gray and wet outside, like winter’s trying to make a comeback. Through the windows I can see the branches of an old oak tree reflecting in puddles of water on the railing of the back deck, but I feel safe and warm inside the house. It’s almost 7:30 a.m. El Hub is still in bed upstairs, but Tabs is here in the living room with me. He followed me down when I got up but then went straight to the top of his cat tower by the window and now looks like he went back to sleep.

Do you have any plans yet for today? Sometimes I feel strange writing about my mornings when I know that for you it might already be afternoon. Maybe you live in Paris where it’s 3:30 p.m. right now, and you’re a little sleepy and thinking about taking a nap. I should be asking you how your day went.

So how was your day? 🙂

One great thing about blog time is that it doesn’t really matter what time the clock says it is. Right now is right now for us all, and no matter what it’s still…

    The weather has been sunny all week and the weekend has been cloudy and gloomy and cold! 🙁 not enough with that, I’m stuck at home with my girl who’s been bugging me non-stop since morning. I wanted to sleep in but got dragged out of bed and now i am so sleepy!

    And having a headache over how should I wash a wool sweater of mine, which needs hand wash but it’s taking ages to dry, and now that it has dried, it has this musty smell. Yikes!!!

    I could do with a little shopping from Sephora.com if I win this eGift Card.thanks Karen.

Later the bf and I are supposed to go to Rhode Island his Newbury Comics stop and my Ulta stop (it’s the closest of either store to us, though still almost an hour away) I got a new floral dress in the mail yesterday, so I’m looking forward to wearing that out to brighten the day.

I loved the set, but the O-Gloss Gold was the best part of it, and I SENT IT THROUGH THE WASHING MACHINE. UGH. So I’ve been hoping and waiting for it to come out on its own. Now it is, and I could buy it! 🙂

    After being in the hospital all week on IV for a major eye infection, it was so easy to complain about it. BUT, then I wondered why I would be complaining when there are millions of people and animals right now that may not even have access to hospitals and are suffering from more than just an eye infection!
    I swiftly found an amazing organization helping the critters affected by the Japan earthquake and tsunami, and reuniting lost pets with their owners who have lost everything. It’s called Japan Animal Rescue and Support, and I made a hefty donation to help others that really need it. (Being a student, any amount is hefty haha)
    I encourage everyone to donate something to a legitimate charity, at home or abroad. It really makes a difference. After, I also took a trip down to MAC for a lipstick, that always seems to help with the blues after an awful week! 😉

    Have a great weekend everyone! Give your pets and loved ones extra hugs

    I am loving Clinique Redness Solutions Instant Relief Mineral Powder. I got a sample of it, but just used it for the first time. Used a crease brushed and dabbed it on a stubbornly red zit (despite concealer etc) and it flat out disappeared! This yellow powder is amazing for making redness disappear!

    I wish drugstores had testers, but I would imagine them not being cleaned very often. The ones at Target are horrible. I heard of a study that said that department store makeup testers were a lot more germy on the weekends than on weekdays. I don’t remember what the numbers were, but it made want to stay away from Sephora on the weekends–I don’t really shop for makeup at department stores. But of course I’m kind of bored today and want to visit Sephora or Ulta. haha.

    I spend the wee hours of Friday morning in the ER with allergic reactions to some medication I’m on but have been on for 8 weeks and finally the side effects got really bad (I hadn’t noticed them before) and so I was itching, my skin felt like it was on fire, I was extremely flushed and then my body got slightly numb and then weak and extreme cold and shivering so lots of meds. I later told a friend if it hadn’t been so bad it would have been funny to make a tutorial on how to cover your red face and then ended up like, “wait, it can’t be done, sorry” Cause it was the reddest red all over so that everyone in the ER kept commenting on it and asking, “Are you normally this red?”

    Hi Karen!!! I love your makeup blog, and I have purchased so many things from Sephora based on your comments! Right now I am sitting here in Monroe, WI and as cold as it is (wind chill 25) my dog insists on the balcony door being open so he can lay outside on his pillows. So, as I type this, my fingers are almost frozen to my keyboard but thats ok!

    You rock!!

    Thank you,

    Cindy

    I just ordered my first ever NYX Palette’s online today! Velvet Rope and Secret World.
    I am SO excited.

    My friend gave me Surma, recently, which is a middle eastern Kajal(Kohl), that is kohl powder which is mixed with oil and applied with a stick.
    Its gorgeous and stays for over 12 hours. I LOVE IT.

    You should try it if you can get your hands on it. She gets it in a Saudi Flee Market. :O

    Ooh my order from Coastal Scents just came in today. I got the bionic flat top brush, oh my GOD it’s so soft. It applies foundation like a dreeeaaaam 🙂 and it takes half the time to put on foundation than a regular foundation brush because it leave no streaks and it covers quite a large surface area in comparison, while still being able to reach into the corners of your nose and other little spots on your face. I’m never looking back.

    Last drugstore item I bought was the Happy Booster Blush in Natural from Physicians Formula. I got sucked in by the cute packaging and heart design, but it turned out to be a really nice product. Now I’m thinking about going back and getting the highlighter in Translucent. I just went to Sephora earlier today to get a new foundation. Maybe it’s because I now live in a small town in the Midwest (for school), but I feel like the girls there, thought really nice, never really know what to do with my skin tone. Like no, the last thing I want on my yellow undertone skin is an pink or peach color that makes me look either inflamed or orange—what’s even more irritating is when they can’t tell what’s wrong. Maybe I should stick with shopping for makeup only when I’m back in the west coast, lol.

    Hi Karen! It is a beautiful but cold day here and I am getting ready to go to a friend’s birthday party. He is turning the big forty! Thanks so much for the tip on using Smashbox Photo Op and then concealer. I have been doing that since you answered my comment and I can’t believe what a difference it makes! Keep on blogging!

    The last beauty item I bought at a drugstore was a black/charcoal shadow duo packaged in a coffin-shaped cardboard palette, on sale after Halloween for $.75 :)) It’s my favorite dark gray shadow with amazing staying power for such a low price!

    I’m planning on getting my mothers and grandmothers makeup brushes for Mother’s Day. I’m slowing collecting the SK large powder brush when I find it in stock at Target. And I need to decide on the eyeshadow brushes. I couldn’t find the Elf one you recommended in your brush reviews.

    So after venturing to my first official (USA vs. Argentina) soccer match with my man, we had a heated argument over something essentially dumb. Words were thrown, tears of Bad Gal mascara were leaking out of my eyes, but fortunately resolutions came and love wasn’t lost! I come home and go thru the daily blog reads including yours and it came to mind.. Your blog is inspirational: It truely radiates not only your passion for beauty products but also the love for others (and animal!) in your life. Bravo, Ms. Karen.. No mo’ pricey tears drippin from these eyes anymore!
