It only takes a second to enter (well, a few seconds). Just leave a quick comment on this post letting me know something that always brightens your day.

A big cup of coffee, an upbeat song and well-behaved hair are all things that brighten my day!

    Your blog brightens my day – except that I read it in the evening! A beautiful sunshine does the job in the morning.

    And… “noroc”? It’s Romanian!! Makes me so happy.

    Compliments–both giving and recieving. I used to be shy about wanting to tell someone that I like their nails or something… Now I try to compliment people whenever I genuinely do like something about them. It’s such a simple way to acknowledge a person and lends way for more great conversation! Plus, it gives me a little skip in my step when I can tell I brightened someone’s day.

    One thing that always brightens my day is when my dearest gives me a call to check in. It may only last a minute or so, but it’s lovely to know he’s thinking about me 🙂

    This seems to be a popular answer for myself but Zena always brightens up my day. She is never ever not happy to see me. People are weird where sometimes they don’t want your company and either act too cheery or really show with their face they don’t want to see you. Zena always loves my company unless she wants to be left alone, which is like never. She’s always around somebody. She can’t talk but her eyes, ears and tail always tell me how she’s feeling. I love spending time with her.

    One of the things that always brightens my day is getting a cheesy lovey text my boyfriend who is currently working and living in London for the next two years while I am in Chicago finishing my MBA. Random lovey texts from him make the distance between us seem bearable.

    What brightens my day is that when I get up there is
    always all the coffee fixing in the coffee maker.
    All I have to do is turn it on and the coffee will
    come out. It smells so delicious. Tastes even better
    when you don’t have to make it yourself.
    Thank you.

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).
