Other than that, I’m just hanging out. I hope you have something fun planned. Good luck in the giveaway. I’ll talk to you soon.

    I just purchased Tatcha cleansing oil. I got a deluxe sample awhile back and while I loved it, I just couldn’t stomach $48 for 5 oz of cleanser. But, I just “treated” myself…LOL..to cleanser. I have a feeling I will be treating myself to more items during the Sephora sale next month.

    A Sephora class sounds nice Karen! This is the most amazing giveaway I’ve ever seen. Mac is a nice brand, but expensive as well unfortunately. On my wish list I’ve thousands of Mac products so this gifdcard is more than welcome. The last time I treated myself was when I bought Black Opium of YSL. Maybe it’s a strange way to treat yourself, but I’m in love with the flavor!

    The packaging on the Becca Tint Lip Shimmer Soufflés is terrible! It looks and feels very cheap, and the products dries out in the dispenser (meaning that you waste a ton of product each time you try to use it). Major bummer as I normally adore Becca.

    I’ve been constantly treating myself to all sorts of cosmetic items for last 6 months or so. This is because I am pregnant with my third one and don’t see any point in buying new clothes or shoes or even bags (I already look so bulky with my ready-to-pop belly, why add more). So naturally only thing remaining in the pampering category is makeup. Well…I have less than 10 days to go till the due date! I hope your pregnancy is as enjoyable as mine! (I am blessed with no problem whatsoever with any of my last 3, not even morning sickness!)

It was very interesting to watch both and see the things that changed because of cultural differences and because of the time that passed between them. One of my favorite things in the new show is the texting, it’s soooo zeitgeist-y!

I just ordered some of the new Makeup Geek matte shadows and one Girlactik lip paint to try so that has to be my last treat to myself! Happy Saturday.

    I lost my cellphone at Guitar Center 10 years ago. I was trying out guitars with my foot up on a bench. I had my phone clipped on my jeans pocket and it fell off, but I didn’t notice. I drove the 30 miles back home and my mom told me someone from Guitar Center had called and told her that one of her “children” had lost their cell phone. I was 41 at the time. We had a good laugh over that one!

    I also made a “refill” of my bb cusion using moisturizer, sun screen, and liquid foundation. Just clean sponge and compact of old product (I used a cleansing oil), fill compact about half way with mixture, and soak sponge! Easy for travel too! They also sell make your own cushion kits, if you don’t have one already.

    I haven’t personally lost a cellphone, but my wife did (yes, I enter this giveaway for my wife). She put her iPhone on top of our car and left it there. I drove the car to do an errand, and only later did we realize the phone was missing. Long story short, I was able to retrace my steps and found the phone, which had slid off the roof of the car when I turned in to a business. I may never have found the phone but I was calling it from my own phone, and a man happened to see it on the ground.

    Yes, I floss. My dental hygienist has an analogy about brushing your teeth being the equivalent of showering, but flossing is more along the lines of changing your underwear. You wouldn’t shower two or three times a day but only change your underwear every six months (right before your dental appointment), would you?

    Happy Caturday!

    Worst packaging for a product you purchased this year?
    M.A.C. ProLongwear Concealer. Phenomenal product. Terrible packaging. That pump = wayyyyy to much product.

    Who is one of the most talented or gifted people in your field?
    I have the good fortune of working with a lot of great people. It’s impossible to choose! My husband works in my field so maybe I should say him 😉

    Have you ever lost a cellphone?
    Yep….after my final statistics exam in grad school, which also coincided with the beginning of holidays, I was really excited and dropped it down an elevator shaft!

    Have you ever had a couples massage?
    No but sometimes our cats kneed us at the same time, which is kind of the same, right?

    Do you floss?
    I’m going through Invisalign treatment so I have to floss at least once or twice a day.

    When was the last time you treated yourself to something special?
    Hmmm, I recently purchased a new sofa which was a big splurge but worth it. It’s a big comfy light grey sofa with an attached chaise. Now if I can just keep the kitties from scratching it to shreds!

    Hey Karen!

    The worst packaging I have received this year, would have to be for a dress I purchased for my birthday. The wrapping was terrible, however, the product was great. While I’m not in the field of pediatrics yet, this is where I see myself in a few years. I believe Dr. Ifeoma Iwelumo is talented.

    Sadly, yes, in my last year of high school at a water park. I had recently got the white blackberry pearl, I felt ashamed of myself. I have never had a couples massage, hopefully someday I will.

    I floss but not as much as I should. It sad, but I’ll do better lol! I recently came back from Chicago and I made a big purchase (Prada sunnies) I’m very guilty but I couldn’t leave it in the store 🙂

    My last treat to myself was a trip to the MAC store, which is 1 hour away, for a foundation and eye shadow update. I splurged just a little, but had to leave a number of items behind until next year. Now that I’m home, not satisfied with the shadows she picked (Haux, Satin Taupe and Soft Brown – too similar) and I feel like I need a Yogurt, Mylar or some other colors to mix in. So this certificate would fix that for me. Don’t have time to make that drive back to the store right now.
    Thanks for the giveaway and hope you are having a fabulous weekend.

    Have you ever had a couples massage? Yes and it wasn’t as relaxing as it should’ve been and by no fault of the masseuse mind you. My husband has sleep apnea and uses a cpap machine when he sleeps at night. Before he was diagnosed…and when he forgets to put his mask on…his snores could/can level buildings and wake the dead. Well he was so relaxed by the massage he fell asleep and harassed my nervous system with his snoring the entire hour. Needless to say that was the first and last massage we got together.

    Happy Saturday (aka Caturday) Karen and Tabs,

    It’s been one of those unusually usual days for me. I’ve pretty much tried to keep as busy as possible doing some online browsing and very minimal shopping. Also, catching up on some of the YouTube vlogs I watch on a regular.
    While I was Netflixing last night I actually ran into the Jane the Virgin description page. It did seem quite interesting , but I didn’t bother to start it. I’ll have to give it a gander now that you’ve said it’s not bad.
    I’ll let you know what I think after about 3 shows in.

    Do you floss?

    Yes every day and more than once a day.

    When was the last time you treated yourself to something special?

    I purchased the dark grape Bedford Drawstring from Henri Bendel. It’s the one color they don’t have online , but I saw it on their Facebook page and called them about it. They had to order it from New York so I’m excited to get it.

    as for the last time i treated myself was MACs first sale they had being a brown skin girl with no mac around in a hot climate i wasnt able to swatch certain things and wanted to exchange it , they said theyd refund my money but at the price I purchased it and I’d have to pay difference of regular price to repurchase what i needed. I didnt like that too much and havent purchased anything from them since but now im out of my prime and prep peach lustre and fix it + and its making me pretty sad

    We met some of my husband’s friends and their kids at a park across town this morning, funny how my social anxiety has been helped by having a kiddo so much! That normally would freak me out, but there’s another mom I can talk with kid stuff about so I wasn’t even a little anxious. Amazing! Colin, of course, had very minimal interest in the playground and thankfully my husband did the job of chasing him around to keep him away from the streets. At 32 weeks it’s getting really hard to carry a 35lb resisting toddler! And the flossing, was just telling the husband that I got scared into doing it religiously after a coworker when I was in my early 20s had to get her gums scaled and the thought of needing that totally freaked me out, haha!

    I really like the revlon moisture stains, but the wand is useless. The opening of the tube also gets covered in gloss, And gloss gets stuck under the cap. It makes a mess. If they made the opening of the tube a little smaller then it would be fine. That’s actually a huge peeve of mine with makeup products that have wands.

    I really want to treat myself to the 2015 Chanel Tisse D’Automne Quad, but it is just too expensive — especially with our weak Canadian dollar. And so, for about the same cost as the eyeshadow, I treated myself to some (real) gold earrings that were on sale for 70% off.

    Phew I’m stuffed! My hubs and I have been to a nearby town’s Main Street Festival – a whole street full of stalls, nearly all food stalls! The whole street was heaving with people, and I’m not great in busy crowds, but it was totally worth it. I got a delicious felafel wrap, full of salad and tzatziki sauce. Then I saw a stall selling homemade turkish delight – they had free samples to taste, and it was the yummiest turkish delight I’ve tried in a long time! So I bought some rose flavour, and some vanilla flavour. Then later we got a coffee. So yep, I’m stuffed full of delicious food! 😀

    The NYX matte lipstick packaging is so atrocious! Because it’s clear in the middle, smudges get all over it (how they get there, I’m still trying to figure out), and what’s worse is that you can’t clean it without breaking the lipstick. If anyone sees me retouching my lips, they’ll probably think that I’m a slob. #petpeeve

    I think the last time I treated myself was a few months ago, to Milani’s Bella Rosa blush. It’s really pretty, but very pigmented so best applied with a fan brush and blended well.

    Hope you had a great time at Sephora class! Contouring and highlighting are mysteries to me so I’m looking forward to reading about what you learned!

I’m new to your blog and really loving your style and how much fun you seem to be having – your passion really shines through 🙂 I’m a proud lover of makeup, even though it took me forever to start wearing it, but I always wanted to or would experiment at home. My mom used to buy me makeup kits when I was little and she would always remove the mascara so I didn’t hurt myself haha. I always used to watch her put on her mascara and bright pink frosty lipstick. And my grandma always flawlessly applied her red lipstick without a mirror – I could never get over it! Amazing how memories of makeup can really bring you back.

    Korean /asian beauty products are becoming a hit nowadays .. packaging’s really cute and all but how about quality? It was difficult for me to buy and try ’em out mainly because I couldn’t find a lot of reviews. Prices are very affordable, that’s a fact. I wish beauty gurus or testers would post more reviews on trending asian beauty products. So far, I have tried nail polish from different brands. awesome. 🙂 and a toner from the face shop in which I will repurchase again. 🙂

    Worst packaging on a product I purchased this year was easily the Milani Baked Blush I got. I LOVE the actual blush but I can never deal with those compacts that have two compartments, and the latch on this one is especially finicky. I always struggle with it for a sec!

    Have you ever lost a cellphone?

    -Up to the date I’ve lost 6 cellphones, including my favourite one which was a purple Sony Ericsson W380i (obviously it was ages ago, but I loved that phone because it was the same my boyfriend of the time had, just his was black), I certainly can’t tell you where I lost it otherwise I wouldn’t have labeled as lost, hahaha.

    I was told to floss the teeth you want to keep, so I *try* to floss every night. But the reality is that I floss maybe 5 of 7 day.

    I live in fear of losing my phone. It is my life. I can get a new drivers license, I can get replacement credit cards. But my phone would be a pain in the ass to replace, not to mention $$$$!

    You know, I haven’t had any problems (well, I haven’t used it yet) but I see a lot of people complaining about the Kat von D Mi Vida Loca remix palette. For myself, I had the “latch” on one of my compacts break, so that’s pretty annoying.

    I’ve never lost a cellphone.

    I am not a flosser. It hurts and makes my gums bleed, when it doesn’t get stuck between my teeth and unravel.

    And I treated myself to some Mac Guo Pei items recently, although not everything I wanted, since they’re quite a bit out of my budget.

When we got in the room, I got undressed down to my underwear and he just kind of sat on the table still dressed even after I told him to undress. Even more awkward when the masseuse came in and was confused to see him just sitting there like it was the docs office!

    Have you ever had a couples massage? Yes, at Post Ranch Inn in Big Sur. It has now become outrageously expensive to stay there. (It was $400/night the last time we went and it’s now about triple that) But if you can ever afford a big splurge weekend, it’s well worth it. It was the most relaxing weekend we’ve had as a couple.
    Do you floss? Every night. I hear gingivitis can lead to heart problems later in life.
    When was the last time you treated yourself to something special? I’m going to do that this week, because my birthday is coming up soon and I always get myself or something special for myself for my birthday. Treat yo’ self!!

    Have you ever lost a cellphone? A lot of times! I must have lost atleast 6 😀

    Have you ever had a couples massage? No. But sounds fun.

    Do you floss? Yes not everyday though.

    When was the last time you treated yourself to something special? Yes on my birthday a month ago I was on a shopping spree. I got a new iphone, lots of clothes, shoes, a jacket, Kate Spade handbag, some cosmetics from MAC and Sephora. To add to this me and my hubby went on a date night for a nice romantic dinner.

    This has nothing to do with makeup, but as you’re about to be a parent, fair warning: so many toys made for kids have the worst/hardest to open packaging ever! They might as well cement the toys/pieces into the package! I will never understand why they do that, because usually when a child receives a gift, he/she wants immediately to open and play with it, and I’ve spent hours over the course of my life trying just to open the package to get the toy/pieces to assemble out!

Like could you slow down with that (I thought it wasn’t wise to spend too much on lipsticks). But when I tried liquid lipsticks for the first time, it was like one of the turning points of my life. I finally understood how she (my friend) felt whenever she gets new lippies. And so, my addiction with lipsticks began and it continues to this very point. 😀
