  5. Hi Karen! Hope you’re having a fabulous holiday. I (sadly) didn’t get any beauty loot for Christmas, but I did get my best friend Brittani a mega-sweet contouring brush. I haven’t had the chance to give it to her yet (probably next week)but I know she’s gonna flip. She is a makeup hound like myself. Smooches and snuggles to T-Money. 😛

  13. Hi Karen! I love your website cause we share a name and it makes me think I am talking to myself 🙂

    Anyway Christmas was a bit bittersweet this year since my husband is deployed but he sent me some surprise gifts which made up for it. Hope your Christmas was marvelous!

  15. Wow, just wow on this giveaway! The greatest thing so far about this Christmas is that my bf’s family has become my family. I’m not close with my mother or sister, unfortunately, but my bf’s family has been very lovely to me 🙂

    Reply

  17. Wowww, this looks amazing! I’ve heard great things about this brand (which, unfortunately, isn’t available in my country) so I’d love to try these fantastic looking products. 🙂

    A random thought: I’ve been stepping up my baking game recently and I’m so pleased with the Christmas treats I made this year!

    Oh, another thing I’ve been meaning to comment: I’m taking a picture of you to my hairdresser right before New Year’s Eve, your hair is amazing. 🙂

  18. The best thing this Christmas has probably been spending time with family. My sister just had triplets so we all went out to visit them in Bruselles!

  34. My brother gifted me a bottle of the Christian Louboutin nail polish and a Dior top coat. I typically wear Essie, OPI and the like, but every year I’m pretty sure he searches for the most expensive nail polish he can find. It’s a bit crazy ($50 for nail polish??) but also so thoughtful and generous.

  38. Best moment of this christmas is my crazy family taking pics together for the first time years. Lots of arguing, shivering, cut off heads (in the pics), but it was wonderful.

  39. I have been wanting to try her line. This would be perfect to try! Hopefully! Would love to win! Happy New Year to everyone! ♥

  46. This is the first year I didn’t receive any beauty gifts. I was glad I got needs rather than wants but I was a little sad because I thought for sure I’d get a lipstick. Lol

  47. one of my favorite beauty-related gift this year was the hourglass ambient lighting blush palette! this also reminds me of your blogpost about the hourglass ambient lighting powders and how it felt like a lighting crew was following you around. xD

  53. One of the highlights is definitely this AWESOME giveaway! Thanks, Karen! You’re such a sweetheart! <3
    Another one was the fantastic bittersweet "farofa" (a traditional brazilian dish made with manioc flour) I made for our Christmas dinner. It is made with onions, raisins, apricots, parsley, walnuts, manioc flour and served with caramelized bananas. Really delicious as a turkey sidedish. Merry christmas and a joyful new year!!

  57. My Christmas felt even more deserved after studying and passing all my exams! This was so exciting because I had taken a year off after having a tough go at school so being able to accomplish that made my Christmas even better! Hope everyone had a good Christmas!

    This year has been quite a ride. I got three (!!?) new pets: two rescued cats, and a puppy which is a gift from a relative. It’s been awesome, and I didn’t think I’d be so enamored with them!

    Reply

  64. Really crossing my fingers for this one! I’m a SK fan and her holiday collection all looks amazing. I got some awesome makeup swag from my dear mother, including the UD electric palette, tarte powder foundation, and UD setting spray. Super excited to play around with that palette, I’ve been wanting it for ages!

  72. My first real holiday with my boyfriend was so much fun. We decided to do a staycation for this holiday and stayed at the top hotel in New York (from a promo of course) and just stared at the Manhattan skyline all night long while eating our favorite food. Great start for our relationship and hopefully more to come! 🙂

  73. Hi Karen,

    Merry Christmas to you and your family!
    I bought myself a Christmas gift which is Lorac Skinny Palette. Been searching a small travel friendly eye palette, so yeah this is a good one.
    Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

    Best,

  81. Every one of the gifts look so classy and gorgeous, and I am especially attracted to ‘The Nude Lip Palette in Jazzed Up Nudes’ – this is an superb giveaway, Karen.
    With the coming of the new year, we are hoping that all the flood victims will be able to resume their normal activities soon and that there will not be a repeat of the flood disaster that is currently happening here in Malaysia.

  82. Hi Karen, happy holidays! It’s been quite lonely this season for me since I don’t live with my family, but I’m trying to stay positive by FaceTiming with them, and of course, reading makeup blogs to keep distracted. <3 Have a good one!

  87. hi Karen! Thanks for this giveaway and these amazing photos :).
    So let’s talk about anything ! I’m from New Caledonia, which is a small French island near Australia and guess what ? Inglot settled down here a few weeks ago and I felt like the luckiest girl on Earth as I was dying to try their products.

  92. I bought a new computer, though I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it. Also bought too much skincare products, but I definitely bought less stuff this year since the deals weren’t that great.

  96. The highlight of my holiday? It’s over! I work retail and this year has been especially tough. Cranky customers, unreliable seasonal help, and slower traffic/sales has made me a little Scroogey so to win this would make me believe in Santa Claus again!!

    Reply

  99. Bought the limited edition lip palette (Sonia Kashuk) in reds, and really liked it! You can bet I’m very interested in the nude lipstick palette!

    Reply

  109. I’m a huge fan! Love you Karen! I’ve never wanted anything more than those brushes, I don’t have much of a collection or the finances to get some 🙁 but I would really like to experiment with makeup and having that would be a dream !

    Reply

  110. Best loot I got for Christmas is getting all 3 objects of affection lipgloss set from Mac cosmetics. Anything that puts color on a pale face makes me beyond happy. I also got a beauty blender which has now been used and made me cry tears of joy for how easy it is now to put on my foundation. Hands aren’t always the best method to put on makeup which I wasn’t very familiar with in terms of texture and blending. Well anyways Happy New Years!

    Reply

  114. I just ran across your blog; wow! I treated myself to some new products this holiday season–the E.L.F. lib scrub; a great mascara by Flower (Drew Barrymore’s line); and Physicians Formula eyeliner/lash serum which I LOVE!

  117. So my mom wanted the Sonia Kashuk jazz brush set for Christmas so of course, being the lovely daughter I am, I bought it for her not thinking it would be that nice, but the bridges are so soft! I didn’t expect them to be as nice as they are. Now I want everything in her Christmas collection!

  118. Omg-hello kitty for Christmas!! I have to say that I actually bought a hello kitty ornament myself this year…. She’s just so dean cute!

  127. I love my Sonia brushes! My family is experiencing our annual Christmas Cold- first my boyfriend, then our daughter, now me so we’ve laid low this holiday.

  129. Everything looks so beautiful! I really loved Christmas this year. I was low on budget, so I made homemade gifts for everyone (out of polymer clay, diy accessories) and gave gift jars 🙂 I had a lot of fun giving gifts.

  139. I work in retail so I’ve been working all week? so far I’ve been working for 9+ hours at a time and the only day I’ve had off was Christmas Day which I spent mostly sleeping! Boxing Day I had to be at work for 6:45 and I didn’t get to leave till. 3:45 in the afternoon! It was so busy! Did you grab anything in the sales? What about tabs?

    Reply

  140. Hi, Karen! I hope that you had a really nice Christmas and have a blessed New Year’s. This Christmas for me was bittersweet, because I didn’t spend it with the man I thought I was going to be married by now. Anywho, I would love to win all these nice things, those brushes look beautiful!!

  143. Wow!! First thanks for any chance to win an incredible prize, secondly, winning this would make my 2014, which was worse than 2013, a little brighter for me.

Hope you had a great Christmas, Karen!

  160. Those brushes are gorgeous! I tried making marshmallow popcorn over the holidays (after weeks of eyeing it on Pinterest) and it’s pretty amazing. Like a cross between rice crispy treats and popcorn. So good and so dangerous because it only takes a few minutes to make!

    Hm, lately my boyfriend and I have enjoyed our evenings by watching That 70s Show on Netflix and sipping red wine or gin and tonics. My favorite gin is Hendrick’s – can’t get over how unique it tastes! Can’t go wrong with a cheap bottle of merlot or pinot noir though!

    Reply

  180. We were able to spend Christmas with my sisters and brother and their families. We had a great time and the 6 hour trip each way was totally worth it. One of the presents was “Creative Cursing” and it was pretty hysterical. Some of the combinations were too bad for anyone to read out loud – and we had to make sure that my brother’s 7 year old twins were out of the room.

    Reply

  183. I got a bunch of really yummy Lush stuff this year and the Guerlain holiday meteorites!! I already preordered the spring ones. They are gorgeous (maybe my fav yet)! Also, I had to preorder the new compact as well. It’s drastically less than the voyager compact which I’ve been eyeing now for some time 🙂

    Reply

  184. So, I was telling you about the things my son got me for Christmas in a previous comment on your other giveaway. Well, I used my manicure set and even put my Elegant Touch nails on. It’s been a long time since I had nails but luckily they are not too long so I have adjusted to having them. I painted them red, cos that is how I roll. I like red polish! Hope you had a good Christmas too!

  186. Super Give Away! I love Sonia.

    Holidays were quiet here at my house. First holiday season back in the USA. I thought we’d visit family but that wasn’t $$$ feasible. No tree or massive decor this year either. Just a wreath, a table set from big lots, and a christmas candle from Hillhouse Naturals.

    We threw a small christmas party for my husbands subordinates and neighbors, got each other a small gift with a $50 to $60 price range. He got a cashmere merino blend scarf and I got a vegan bag from sole society that will hopefully arrive soon. The pets got lamb scraps. We took a hike on the day after xmas around the ocean wilds a few minutes from our house to work off the lamb, potatoes, and green beans from the night before. We had Korean BBQ for dinner at a hole in the wall place here and watched two movies. The 100 foot journey and magic in the moonlight!

  197. Great giveaway! I’ve been marathon watching these shows about Saturday Night Live on VH1. It makes me so nostalgic about where I was when and all that, and with the one on the first five years, really makes me realize what a screwed up time the 70s where and how difficult it must have been to be a young adult then and make good choices. I stayed up till 8 am this morning watching and I’m recording like a bazillion hours of it.

  206. Merry Christmas and Have a Happy New Year!!! Sonia Kashuk sure makes a beautiful holiday set this season. I can never get them because they sell out so fast and each Target only carries a few of them. This year is especially festive and beautiful. I hope I win.

  217. Hi Karen, I don’t know if you actually read these comments but I just wanted to tell you about my pets. I have 7.5 cats and one dog. How do I have 7.5 cats you ask? My brother and I share custody of my mother’s cat, Sadie. Mum has been living in a nursing home for over ten years. Sadie lived with me at first, then ran away for five years and reappeared recently. She hates other cats, and I mean HATES, not just the usual hissing and growling cats do at a strange new cat but she is a real psycho when other cats are around. Since I have seven cats when she lives with me she lives in a bedroom by herself, which isn’t much fun for her. She can’t go outside because she will probably disappear again. Anyway, my brother and his family took her while we went away for a month because our house sitter needed Sadie’s bedroom to sleep in. My niece, who’s four years old, loves Sadie now so they are keeping her for the time being. They have another cat so Sadie has to live in the garage at their house but at least she gets to spend time with Xanthe, my niece. Sadie is a long haired tabby, similar colours to Mr Tabs, but with all the hair she creates a lot of mess in her bedroom. Like tonnes of hair. Pillows full of it. Thanks for reading! Mardi

  230. Hi Karen! Great giveaway. The weirdest thing to happen this Christmas is that my sister’s small dog turned over our trash can and went through it while we were at church. My sister said, “Oh great, my dog has gone all “Snots” on your trash can.” Since we all love Christmas Vacation, we got a good laugh at that. Take care, Kim

I’m very EXCITED to have this collection which will be displayed for its sleek beauty.

This year was totally different. She did a great job! She got me a shampoo set for something I had recently sampled (and loved) and some shower gel that I had recently been planning to buy myself. I was stoked!

  285. i was traumatized about baking back in college when my then-boyfriend convinced me to attempt his mother’s sugar cookie recipe. his disappointment at how not like his mother’s the cookies came out was so palpable that i don’t think i tried baking for years. fast forward to this holiday season when i made cheese biscuits like the ones from red lobster. granted, it used bisquick mix, so it was super simple, but they came out so well! i was really proud. i shared with my work colleagues and our upstairs neighbors. they seemed to enjoy them quite a bit.

  289. The Hubs and I hosted Christmas and even though he’s been a chef for 20 yrs and preps for days for this one particular meal he ALWAYS forgets to put the rolls in the oven! Does that happen to anyone else? Either you forget them or you burn them. #giveitup

  291. I was once again the official Christmas eve cook this year. I spent the whole day in the kitchen making dinner for 12 people – caesar salad (dressing from scratch!), lasagna, hot jalapeno crab dip, turkey, paella, and butterscotch brownies.

  293. Wow, what an awesome giveaway! I’ve got a close circle of friends that I’ve known since elementary/ middle school and by some luck, our schedules matches up so we could spend the holidays together. Seriously the best holiday in a long time since this so rarely happens!

  297. I’ve never tried Sonia Kashuk before, mainly cause I don’t live terribly close to a Target, but I’d be thrilled finally give her stuff a try! I’ve only ever heard good things! Especially about her brushes.

  309. I bought a Sonia Kashuk travel brush set years ago and still have it. I love her brushes but don’t live near a Target to look at her products very often. Looks like she has stepped up the game of cosmetics since then. Would love to try some of her newer products.

  330. Part of me wishes we had a Target so I could nab all the pretties… But another, more sensible part of me is kind of glad, because I have poor impulse control and would spend all my money. 😛

    Thanks for this great giveaway!!

  350. I would just like to confess that I’ve never tried a single Sonia Kashuk product. Which is just crazy. This makes me want to go use the Cartwheel deal and buy something!!

  352. Oh, I was just checking her brushes in Target, but hesitated to buy. How is the quality in your opinion?

    The give away looks awesome. Seems give a natural golden look from your review.

  355. Happy Holidays! Are you kidding me?! My mouth fell open (for realz) when I saw these prizes. lol I would love to have a high-quality brush set. This Christmas I was especially proud of a super tasty roast I made for my husband and myself. Yummy! Thank-you for the awesome chance!

  359. I just purchased my first Sonia Kashuk product last week. I picked up one of the Velvet Lip Crayons in Berry Nude as a early Christmas present to myself. They are amazing! They remind me of the Nars matte lip pencils only smoother.

  377. I did my eye makeup with the Sonia Kashuk Eye on Neutral Shimmer palette today, and I’m treating myself to a double feature of Into The Woods and The Hobbit this afternoon. I’ve worked the last 8 days straight, including Christmas, and I’m done!

  381. Sonia Kashuk has really stepped her game up with her line and I own a couple of her individual brushes which are just fantastic! I missed out on the last set of Makeup Brush set she had & would love to try these because it’s not an overwhelming amount of brushes.

  394. hi, I thought do I do it or not? What do I have to lose? I’d never leave a comment before but I know this time I have to. The Sonia Kashuk Holiday 2014 collection to win???? Is that a joke??? A dream???? no it’s a miracle, Christmas miracle. So I try my luck. Hoping if I win the packages arrives in France. JOYEUX NOEL et BONNE ANNEE 2015.
