Hello, and welcome to a new week!

Så … hvad er mandag afstemning?

Fremragende spørgsmål! Det er ikke i modsætning til dets navn, en faktisk afstemning, som med små klikknapper. Det er bare en liste over fem meget mere eller mindre tilfældige spørgsmål, jeg har postet på denne blog hver mandag morgen for de tidligere quadrillion år (siden 2007). Jeg elsker at læse dine svar, og det hjælper mig med at få min uge til en god start. ?

1. Last person you held hands with?

The Coywolf, while walking up the stairs.

2. yoga or baby Yoda?

Baby Yoda in a heartbeat!

3. Do you ever get frightened in the middle of the night?

Oh, hell yeah. many of the time it’s something silly and irrational, like wondering if I’ll see the Bloody Mary ghost in the mirror when I go the restroom in the middle of the night. ? but in some cases it’s real-deal worry rooted in worry about finances, the future, our health… All those big scary things that keep adults up at night.

4. Did you grow up playing video games?

Jeg gjorde! ?️ We had an Atari and a Nintendo in our house, and my brother and I played games together (Super Mario brothers was our favorite), but we weren’t playing 24/7. I wouldn’t say we were hardcore gamers.

5. how do you feel about your first name?

Well…funny thing. I’ve always liked it, but now that the Internet doesn’t like Karens, it isn’t always an easy name to have.

6. Can you do the splits?

Absolut ikke!

7. how good are you about wearing sunscreen during winter?

I’d say it’s hit and miss for me, but I’m trying to be better about it.

8. A red lipstick you like?

Stila Beso!

9. What’s simpler for you to use — gel liner or liquid liner?

Liquid liner, ideally with a flexible pen suggestion because it’s faster and simpler than handling a brush and potted gel.

Der er en ny linje af langvarige pande geler fra Metropolitan Decay!
Denne grusomhedsfri veganske pandefyldning gel er pigmenteret såvel som varer en loooong tid. Hvis du er en fan af består af evigt Aqua pande, vil du også sådan. Inked pande er tilgængelig i syv $ 26 nuancer samt tilbydes nu på UD tællere såvel som online.

Ting, jeg har gjort for at løsne Metropolitan Deconded Inked Brows fra My Face: 1) jaget en preschooler, mens de sprang såvel som sprinklet i regnpytter. 2) Grunted, stødt såvel som svedet (få yo ‘sind ud af randen) med en 1-timers booty bygning hiit træning. 3) Sang lige hvad jeg havde brug for over såvel som i løbet af 10 minutter i brusebadet.

Alle forgæves forsøg, sind dig.

REKLAME

Denne linje af langvarige pande geler er udviklet til at vare. Metropolitan Decay går endda så langt som at ringe til det “semi-permanent” samt erklærer det varer så meget som 60 timer (med den advarsel, som du har krav på at afstå fra at vaske dine pande i tre dage … hvem gør det?!) .

Skyggen neutrale nana over programmet på en dag
Det er ligesom hella pigmenteret ahornsirup til dine pigener, bortset fra at det ikke er klæbrig såvel som du ikke kan spise det … så vær venlig at afstå!

Mit punkt er, at den viskøse formel gør det meget bedre til at tilføje farve til brows end for støbning såvel som formgivning. Hvis du har Mad Scientist Brewe, kan du have brug for hjælp til en ekstra pande gel for at holde alt på plads.

Nærbillede af børsten
Før jeg engagerer sig i de tidligere nævnte Shenanigans, malede jeg det på mine bare pandeområder, der udnytter den vinklede rene, det kommer med, så løb en pande rent med mine broner et par gange.

(Undgå ikke sidstnævnte trin, eller din fare er forkert for en pirat!)

To af de syv nuancer
Jeg har ikke noget ønske om at forlade nogen form for produkt i mine browser i tre dage … men hvis jeg gjorde det, ville det være det produkt.

Husk – Hvis du vælger at udnytte dette, skal du ikke bruge så meget meget, såvel som børste, børste, rengør med dine pande med en pande børste.

Great Morning! glædelig fredag! ?

Nogle hurtige evalueringer af apotek produkter jeg har brugt på sent …

REKLAME

Neutrogena sund hud rødme i bronzed ($ 8,99)

Teknisk set er dette en rødme, men hvis du er på den retfærdigste af den retfærdige ende af hudtonespektret, ville denne matte gyldne solbrun være en bangin ‘bronzer. Det er nemt at blande såvel som varer hele dagen. Da det er lidt lige så godt at bære som en bronzer på min tan hud, swoosh en smule i min crease som en skift farve. Det er også perfekt til det!

Covergirl trubelnd mineraler løs mineralpulver i banan ($ 7,99)

Dette gule tonede løst pulver er primært til at indstille concealer såvel som fundament, såvel som den gule farvetone er designet til at producere en lysende effekt … Jeg bemærkede virkelig en forskel. * Shrugs * det ser mere eller mindre gennemskinnelig på min hud. Anywho, jeg støvede dette oven på en blanding af tonet fugtighedscreme samt en smule concealer under en nylig varm bølge, såvel som den holdt olien på min pande i bugt uden at se tung eller tyk.

Jeg kan godt lide dette … men jeg tror, ​​det er en meget bedre i form for medium såvel som dybe hudtoner med oliven undertoner, da den gule kan se lidt ud “ud” på lettere hud.

Covergirl Trubels Base Business Skin Primer ($ 8.24)

Denne farveløse aftale med primer, som alle covergirlprodukter, er grusomhedsfri. Jeg føler mig ikke rigtig, at det tilføjer nogen form for fugtig til min tørre hud, men det gør en bang-up opgave at blande ud mine porer. Når jeg lagde det under tonet fugtighedscreme eller concealer, ser min base glattere ud såvel som varer længere. Jeg synes også at udnytte mindre base også.

Covergirl Fuld spektrum Definerende øjeblik i Blackest Black samt Deep Lilla ($ 7,99 hver)

Jeg kan godt lide den sorte version af denne twist-up liner, da det virkelig forbliver på waterlines såvel som lash linjer, såvel som når det er der, bevæger det sig ikke. helt solid. Den lilla skygge er bare okay selvom … det forbliver ikke hos mine vandlines overhovedet, men det håndterer mine lash lines godt nok.

Revlon Creme Lipstick i Pink Velvet ($ 4,99)

Ya ved, denne læbestift er lige så stor som altid – glat, letvægts såvel som sprængning med pigment. Samt det er så komfortabelt cremet på mine læber … ingen cool smag eller duft. Jeg kan ikke tro, det er kun fem bucks!

S.s. TGIF! ? Gør du noget i weekenden?

Rosie-Pose would like to notify you that she is queen of whatever within paw-striking distance, including board games.

That board game above is candy Land, and, FYI, the artwork in the latest version is…slightly terrifying. (Or is it just me?)

REKLAME

Speaking of candy, the electric blue on my lower lash as well as waterlines totally reminds me of sweets from my youth. It’s metropolitan Decay Chaos 24/7 shadow Stick in Chaos, a vibrant matte blue with a touch of pearl. The formula’s long-wearing as well as waterproof, as well as it sets truly quickly. You have less than 30 seconds to blend it out, so blend with a purpose, girl!

I tried it by itself first, as well as it looked good, however then I got curious, so I added a layer of shimmery blue as well as purple from born to Run, my preferred vibrant UD eyeshadow combination of all time. I like the rich jewel tones, as well as every one of the bold, intense shades is still surprisingly wearable. The mattes as well as shimmers are simple to blend, too. Whenever I’m in the mood for brights, I reach for this palette, as well as I like it so much that I have a backup.

Now, I’ve used a great deal of UD over the years, as well as born to Run is truly a standout for me, which is why I’m bummed that it appears to have been discontinued. It’s not simple to discover anymore; however, I did some digging as well as discovered a few on the internet at JC Penney (remember JC Penney!).

Urban Decay born to Run
If you’re ever looking for discontinued UD products, regularly browse the sale section on the metropolitan Decay website. A buddy who works in pr for UD suggested this tip, as well as it’s turned up gold! I discovered the unfortunately discontinued Cannonball Mascara there, as well as I got three tubes! It’s something to keep in mind if you like a specific UD product that’s no longer stocked on shelves.

Anyway, candy. My youth next door neighbor Karrie as well as I would trip our bikes to the corner store to buy candies that would most likely break my teeth now if I ate them, ha ha ha! Lemon Heads, Boston Baked Beans, as well as these bit difficult blue jawbreaker-like candies whose name I can’t recall… I want to phone call them “blueberry somethings,” however I can’t remember.

We likewise liked Nerds as well as the powder dips where you’d get a sugary stay with dip into even more sugar. We’d gorge on candy right in front of the store, then take our sugar high onto our bikes as well as trip around the community for hours.

By the way, about this look I’m wearing, the upper lid has a swish of black liner via Chanel Hyperblack, which I’ve been additional loving lately. It’s similar to MAC Blacktrack however so much much better since it’s darker as well as more intense (so less layering), as well as it sticks like glue to lash as well as waterlines. SÅ GODT!

Also, the only base products on my skin are tinted moisturizer as well as concealer, as I’ve been into extremely very little skin lately. as well as lightweight, dewy medium-coverage Aveeno tinted Sunscreen has been on repeat.

S.s. In TV news, has anyone seen The White Lotus yet on HBO? I watched the very first episode the other night and…I’m just…confused. Er det godt? Junk? Mærkelig? I just can’t figure it out. I like so many of the actors in it (like Connie Britton rocks), however it’s not what I expected.

3. What color are your eyes?

Dark chocolate brown with a faint dark blue navy sound around the iris (but you gotta look incredibly close to see it).

4. exactly how great are you about purging your makeup collection?

Hmm… Well, not incredibly good, however I’m getting much better at it, slowly however surely. I utilized to keep whatever (AND I indicate EVERYTHING) indefinitely, even expired products for nostalgia, however all I want to keep now are things that haven’t expired as well as that I wear all the time… got no space in my life for continuous nonsense!

5. Which method do you part your hair?

I don’t understand anymore! I was parting it on the left for a while, since that seemed to be the method the cray-cray gray hairs instinctively wished to go, however I’ve come to recognize that my hair is toying with my mind. It’s a no-win situation! Lately, I’ve been parting it to the right, however that doesn’t seem to be assisting either.

So, yeah, I have no concept at this point, HAHAHA!

6. Highlights or lowlights?

Ingen af ​​dem?!

7. Are you a nail biter?

Nah, that was never truly one of my things.

8. have you ever felt self-conscious about your smile?

Girl, yes! ? All throughout my tweens as well as teenss. I used braces for many, lots of years as well as was never totally comfortable with the metal flash in pics. I would try to smile as naturally as I might with a closed mouth. ?

Actually, I’m still self-conscious about my smile, to be honest, since it seems to exaggerate the hooded-ness of my eyes in pics (or at least I believe it does).

Also, this may be in my head, however I vow I look significantly older when I smile. I understand that getting older is a mandatory ride, as well as you gotta just come to terms with it at a point, so I try to preserve a great mindset as well as do it gracefully, however I’ve been kinda having a hard time with it lately… Hopefully, this as well shall pass.

9. Something fun you did over the weekend?

Åh! — Connor as well as I did a bit bit of gardening. It was warm out here, up into the 70s, so we hung out on the deck as well as repotted some plants.

Happy National Lash Day! Mascara og kitties tee.
Hej, og glad katurday!

Åh, og glad national lash dag også! Ja, vi fejrer nu øjenvipper nu. Mine vipper er i øjeblikket på jagten på en ny mascara, forresten. Hvis du er tilfreds med din, skal du dele, fordi Laura Mercier Caviar bare ikke gør det for mig længere (krølleholdet er ikke det samme, uanset årsagen).

REKLAME

I det seneste har jeg været iført et lag af Ilia fulleste volumizing mascara med en vandtæt mascara på toppen, og mens det gør jobbet fint, ville jeg foretrække at have en en-og gjort løsning, så lad mig vide, om du “VE fundet noget livskift!

Taler om vipper, Connor havde for nylig en mini-meltdown over sine øjenvipper for nylig. Hers er lange og krøllede som El Hubs, og de bliver typisk fanget i øjnene, hvilket er meget ubehageligt for hende. Når det sker, hjælper jeg enten hende med at bruge en vaskeklud eller skylle øjnene med vand for at få de faste vipper ud.

Anywho, det skete igen den anden dag, og hun begyndte at tale om at skære hendes vipper af, fordi de var så generende … Jeg lukkede det rigtige hurtigt. Jeg tænker mellem “absolut ikke” og “du vil poke dit øje ud,” noget kan være gået tabt i oversættelse, fordi hun lige begyndte at bawling. Jeg holdt hende i mine arme og forsikrede hende om, at det ikke altid ville være et problem, og at hun en dag ville være taknemmelig for sådanne dejlige vipper. Så skyllede vi øjnene ud og gik om forretning som sædvanlig.

I overensstemmelse med påske såvel som forårstema troede jeg, at jeg ville vise 5 pastel neglelak fra min stash:

Tommelfinger til pinky: essie pink-a-boo, revlon abrikos wienerbrød, illamasqua milf, Mary Kay Blue Lotus, essens en dejlig hemmelighed.

L til r: essie pink-a-boo, revlon abrikos wienerbrød, illamasqua milf, Mary Kay Blue Lotus, essens en charmerende hemmelighed.
Essie Pink-A-BOO # 793, som kaldes “en ren pink med glitrende gnistre” på Essies websted. Jeg ville desuden sofistikeret til at sige, at det er en ren mælkeagtig pink med glitrende blå og lyse pink gnistre.

Shimmeren er svært at fange, det er den allerbedste vinkel for at vise det.
Revlon duftende neglelak i abrikos wienerbrød – ud over nyhedsaspektet af duften (som kun er indlysende, når polsket er tørret, men kan lugtes selv under en top frakke) Denne række neglepakker er anstændigt høj kvalitet (dette er præ- Parfumerie version). Abrikos wienerbrød En gul tonet fersken skygge, der er ret ren, men gælder ubesværet, såvel som lugte som abrikoser.

Illamasqua MILF – OH ILLAMASQUAs seksuelt opladede farvnavne giver nars et løb for deres penge. Vent til jeg gør meget mere untrieds, du vil se, hvad jeg mener. Denne skygge betegnes som en “Bright Mint Creme”, som sandsynligvis overskrider det lidt – det er ikke så lyst. Det er en stor skarp, ren mynte skygge.

Mary Kay Blue Lotus er en blød blå med en mindre hvid opalescerende glans fra Zen i Bloom Spring 2013 Collection. Denne polish er imidlertid overraskende uigennemsigtig i 1 frakke, dog på grund af mindre stribe, jeg havde brug for 2 frakker for at niveauere det.

Essens “en charmerende hemmelighed” – en lavendel med fuchsia shimmer
Essence farve til at gå i “en dejlig hemmelighed” # 86 er en lavendel med lilla såvel som fuchsia shimmer skudt med det. Jeg føler, at denne skygge kan have muteret med produktionsløb, da mange på internettetbilleder såvel som evalueringer ikke nævner Fuchsia Shimmer, selvom det er helt tydeligt i flasken (men ikke så meget, når det anvendes).

Illamasqua MILF såvel som Mary Kay Blue Lotus er fra min ubehagelige bunke, mens de andre jeg har brugt før. Alle er vist med 2 frakker undtagen for Essie Pink-A-Boo samt Revlon Abricot Wienerbrød, som havde brug for 3 frakker.

Jeg endte med at bruge Essie Pink-A-Boo som min påske weekend manicure:

Den lyse lyserøde shimmer er indlysende på min tommelfinger, mens den blå shimmer viser sig på min finger på det ideelle billede. Denne polske er passende navngivet “pink-a-boo” med det skiftende subtile shimmer!
Ud af disse 5 pastell nuancer ville jeg bære den rosa, fersken såvel som lavendel på mine fingre, mens jeg kun ville bære den miljøvenlige såvel som blå på mine tæer.

You guys, don’t sleep on this palette. It’s not flashy by any means, but the a lot more I use it, the a lot more I fall in love with it, especially the glowing finish. It’s SO forgiving, and much appreciated by my experience lines.

The pink in this look also comes through on the cheeks by means of a peachy pink gel blush by Chantecaille (pricy but natural looking) and a pinkish violet lip from an Origins Lipstick called Va Va Violet.

Origins Va Va Violet
This lippie is not playin’ because the payoff is crazy intense — like MAC level intense! here I’m wearing it lightly dabbed on my lips for a stained effect, but it still looks pretty pigmented. I love how this lipstick’s pinkish violet tones complement the subtle pink and purple on my lids.

I’ve made a decision it’s time to officially retire my collection of heels, which is a little bittersweet because I used to love them so much. I tried wearing a pair of Franco Sarto wedges the other day (they used to be my “comfortable heels”), and I realized — OH, hell NO! — there’s just no way. Lol! first of all, I can’t chase after a child in them, and second, they’re incredibly hard to drive in. Also, I can’t bend down! I’m done, dude. Ikke mere.

Din venlige kvarter appelmisbruger,

dine læber men bedre!
Jeg fortsætter med at høre om “tilbagevenden af ​​læbestift,” som om det rent faktisk gik væk, men hvad jeg ser frem til, er afkastet af glans.
Saftig, glat og skinnende glans.

Disse er et par Chanel-glosser, som alle bor i deres permanente samling ($ 32 hver), at jeg har elsket på det seneste.

REKLAME

For det første er der 166 fysiske. Det er en koral med subtil gylden glitter. Hvis dine læber er pigmenteret som mine er, kan 166 se temmelig ren ud, men jeg har virkelig ikke noget imod det overhovedet. Jeg elsker faktisk, hvordan subtil det er alene, men hvis du ønsker meget mere farve, er det også let at intensivere med et basislag af koral læbestift eller læbepencil nedenunder.

Dernæst er der 744 subtil, som også har store sommertid vibes. Det er også en koral, men har rosier toner (aw, jeg sagde lige rosie … Jeg savner min kat!). Det er lidt meget mere pigmenteret end fysisk, og jeg springer frem og tilbage mellem de to hele dagen, fordi en piges skal have muligheder.

Derefter er der 724 brændt sukker, som er en gylden karamelbrun. Det fungerer godt med klassiske sommer øjenskygge nuancer som guld, coppers, bronzes og rose guld. Hvis du er i nuancer som Mac Teddy eller PowerSurge, eller Tom Ford Spice, seriøst, tjek det ud.

REKLAME

Chanel fans, som er dine yndlings chanel glans nuancer? Husk dig, jeg behøver ikke mere … men spørgende sind vil gerne vide! Jeg mener, det kan ikke skade for at få et par på min ønskeliste, ikke?

Din venlige kvarter appelmisbruger,

Karen.
