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

October 20th, 2012 by Karen 477 Comments

WINNER: The giveaway is closed now, and the winner is Shana! Congratulations, Shana! If you entered but didn’t win this time around, keep trying, and click here to enter any ongoing giveaways before you jet. 🙂

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

Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Soy Chai LatteI’m not the only person here at Tabs the Cat Industries, LLC./Makeup and Beauty Blog who suffers under the wrath of Tabs. El Hub is another long-suffering employee.

As chauffer, he had to go out this morning to pick up some dry cleaning (Tabs had a black-tie event the other night and spilled gravy all over his bow tie and cuffs), a bag of kitty litter (Tabs likes World’s Best) and a decaf pumpkin spice soy chai latte from Starbucks.

I figured that since El Hub was already gonna be going to Starbucks for Tabs…maybe he could bring one back for me. 🙂

And he did!

YUM! I just finished scraping the last bubbles of foam out of the cup with a spoon.

So good!

Now that I’m powered by pumpkins and caffeine, I feel ready to tackle my day. I need to get some groceries and want to stop by a paint store to get samples for the dining room. I’m still not 100% decided on Benjamin Moore’s Wythe Blue.

Saturdays aren’t just for running errands and doing your cat’s bidding, though. Around here, they’re also for giveaways, like this one here. Take a quick minute to enter this weekend’s giveaway for a $50 Sephora e-gift card.

Details down below…

What folks are saying…

“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

“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. 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

How do you like your eggs (scrambled, sunny side up, over easy, etc.)? Who’s the sassiest diva (human or pet) in your life? If you were an animal (a different animal, let’s say), which animal would you be? Favorite moisturizing lip balm/product? Do you ever leave the house wearing pajamas? — you get the idea.
  • Second, you can enter by following me on twitter Twitter @karenmbb and retweeting (RT) the following message:
    • Follow @karenmbb and RT to Win a $50 eGift Card from Sephora! http://bit.ly/UgxmK7

    I like my eggs over easy. I am currently obsesses with Maybelline Baby Lips in Mango- feels and smells delicious!

    As far as leaving the house in my PJs-never have and never will. I think it mostly stems from the fact that I grew up in Poland and if someone walked outside wearing Pjs would be classified as crazy right away. I still think it’s inappropriate after I lived in the US for 3 years. I wouldn’t even go to my mailbox in PJs but that’s just me 🙂

    And that Pumpkin Latte sounds delicious right about now, I had an extremely stressful day at work…

    I’ve been having the same thing for breakfast every weekend lately. I cook an egg sunny side up in a generous amount of butter (at least a tablespoon, sometimes two). When it’s done enough I slide it over the top of about a cup of rice, then drizzle with a little sesame seed oil and soy sauce. If I’m feeling really motivated I’ll sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds over the whole thing. NOM!

    My cat Bailey is the diva in my life! She has to be the center of attention ALL the time. If my husband or I are doing something that doesn’t involve her, she won’t stop crying or pawing or whining or yowling until she is involved! Anytime you sit, she’s in your lap. When I wake up in the morning, she’s outside the door, waiting to be fed. She wants to be held ALL the time. Her and Tabs would hate each other – they both need all the attention!! 😉

    I’m in a rental house while my new house is under sontruction, and the bedrom walls are PURPLE! It’s a cool plum – not a bad color, but it SO clashes with my furniture and bedding! The adjacent bathroom has plum-and-lavender stripes. I’m not kidding.
    My favorite lip balm right now is Josie Maran’s argan oil lip balm in the tube – can’t remember the exact name but it’s a squeeze tube with a gold cap. It’s really moisturizing and gives a nice sheen that’s not too slippery.
    PLEASE choose me for the gift card – the stress from my freaky walls is giving me acne and I need to buy concealer!

    I received Lip Quench as a free gift with a Dermstore order and I actually really like it. It’s the perfect consistency for me at night. Oh, and I went to Starbucks this afternoon and they were out of pumpkin spice lattes. How does that happen Starbucks?!

    Hi Karen!

    Like that Blue for your DR! What is your China Pattern for that room and cutlery pattern (I, meself have sterling)? As a former “Table Top” Manager for a major Dept Store I know way more about china than your average bear. I have 6 or 7 patterns, depending on how you count them. My next question after asking you about your china pattern is, on what occasions would your be entertaining in your DR and is that wall colour a good colour for that when combined with your china pattern and cutlery and for that particular holiday(s)? Neutral enough? Oh, and NO NO NO, I have never in my life gone “OUT” in my pj’s. And I never, ever, ever will, as long as I live. I even have a hard time on weekend mornings going out to get the paper from the driveway in my pj’s and robe. God FORBID I see a neighbor–I predend I don’t see them.

I have been assigned a 14 yr old for my adopt-a-giftee program and I am quite confused as to what products would be too appropriate to give to a kid that would definitely not offend any parents. I finally settled on products targeted towards kids – like scented lipbalm and glittery nail polish.

    Hello, Karen!

    I have quite an eye for vintage/victorian-esque odds, ends, and trimmings… Unfortunately (or unfortunately), this has led to a rather unconventional choice in a makeup train-case alternative… I’m not sure if you frequent Cost Plus (though, out here, in the Bay Area, they’re everywhere, I’ve noticed) – but they have this wonderful, carved, three-tier wooden “jewelry box” that I had obsessed over for months (literally). All the while I gazed at its unique charm, I couldn’t help but think to myself, “This would be a lovely little home for my beloved makeup treasures… like my Vice and Lorac Pro Palettes…” Of course, I eventually caved – and the box does indeed house everything rather nicely!

    Has this strange phenomenon ever happened to you?

    The sassiest diva in my life is a fierce, little feline I rescued along with her 5 kittens. Mama kitty lives with me and her adorable offspring live with my next door neighbor so I literally see them everyday when taking my dogs out. Before adopting her I never had a cat as a pet, so everything she does is so new to me. She actually purr talks. She makes this funny, gurgling noise whenever I walk into a room or look at her. It makes my day.

    Hi! I just found your blog this week and I am obsessed!! I have been a MAC fanatic ever since my aunt took me there in my teens. I was attempting to buy some lipstick at walmart and she told me I was old enough to buy something from a “real cosmetics shop”. At 13, I purchased blue eye shadow and an frosty purple lipstick.

    My day today was rough my 5 week old baby boy has been crying all day and hadn’t slept for no more than 15 minutes at a time, only 4 hours ago did he fall asleep, I’m hoping he’ll sleep all night, that would be a dream come true! I’m so tired I wish i could go to bed but i’m scared i won’t wake up if he starts crying for his bottle 🙁

    Sassiest diva in my life is one of my mom’s kitties, Miss Minou. She usually looks down her nose at me from the top of the kitty condo unless I have some kitty snacks, or if she sees me brushing one of the other cats, otherwise pretty much cold shoulder or running away.

    I like my eggs just about any which way, but pretty much the only time I eat the yolk is when the eggs are scrambled; otherwise, I eat only the white and dump the yolk.

    Hello Karen,
    My bedroom walls are off white. I have three divas in my life my mom, my Maltese, and my yorkie. It’s too bad that none of the three get along with each other. I think it is more of a lesson on tolerance with the three personalities. My favorite way to eat is scrambled or boiled, otherwise I probably won’t eat them. I am a beauty product junkie but I prefer Eco friendly luxury products. I like the bite beauty line of lipsticks. My favorite lip conditioner is in a blue tube by Nivea.

    Last year I bought a lumberjack type of red and black plaid fleece lined shirt. It’s from the men’s section and man is it comfortable… but I can’t really wear it out of the house 🙂 It’s not the most flattering!

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).
