I’ve been tagged …

June 12th, 2007 by Karen 14 Comments

Fellow Beauty Network blogger the lovely Kia from yummy411 tagged me yesterday!

Here are the rules:

Each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to then report this on their own blog with their 7 things as well as these rules. They then need to tag 7 others and list their names on their blog. They are also asked to leave a comment for each of the tagged, letting them know they have been tagged and to read the blog.

I kinda changed the rules a bit and did two separate lists, one beauty related and one not. What can I say? I like lists.

7 Random Beauty Related Things

1. I’m growing my hair out.

2. My favorite NARS blush is Amour.

3. I do my own pedicures.

4. At any given time there are at least 6 different bottles of shampoo and conditioner in my shower.

5. I have a weakness for powders. I own several high and low end powders including Origins Silk Screen, MAC Mystery Couture (I’m wearing this today!), Revlon Skinlights, MAC Beauty Powder, NYC Loose Face Powder …

6. I wear makeup to the gym.

7. I’m currently on the hunt for a holy grail eye makeup remover. (Got any suggestions?)

7 Random Non-Beauty Related Things

1. In college I got into a minor rollerblading accident that involved the following factors: a patch of ivy (Hedera helix, which is not the poisonous kind), a hill, a flock of ducks and a slow-moving deaf old lady. You do the math.

2. I read really, really, really fast.

3. My right leg is slightly longer than my left.

4. I frickin’ love Kentucky Fried Chicken side dishes, especially the mashed potatoes, the biscuits and the weirdly sweet corn on the cob. Sadly, I only eat there once or twice a year because I try to eat healthy.

5. I have a three octave singing range.

6. I changed my last name when I got married. My former last name is the name of a small, wine-producing village in the middle of Spain that nobody could pronounce correctly. My new last name is the name of a small, wine-producing village in the middle of France that nobody can pronounce correctly. What are the odds?

7. I got a Blackberry Pearl phone (aka THE CRACKBERRY) for my birthday, and I love it. I fear THE CRACKBERRY will soon be permanently surgically attached to my right hand. You can use it to take pictures, listen to music, check e-mails, surf the web, and oh yeah it’s a phone too, so you can call people and leave obnoxious voice messages. Not that I do that. Ever.

Now I’m tagging Lipglossina, Jen, Toya, AppleDiva, Teri and Michelle. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know it’s only six, but hey, I like to bend the rules.

It’s gonna be a hot one today! Wear your sunscreen and stay cool, beauties!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Kia – OHHHH you need a CRACKBERRY. It’s a whole new world. I’m not a hard core phone techie but I know when I like a piece of technology and THE CRACKBERRY is all that and a bag of chips.

    The MAC Mystery Couture Powder! I will actually have to do an entry on this within the next few days. I promise to go into the deets then.

    Hi AppleDiva, I know that oil-based eye makeup removers take stuff off well, but does the Johnson’s baby oil hurt your eyes?

    Oh, and I think I’ve sussed your maiden name, working on your married name! What a coincidence though!!! 😀

    Jen, what does “sussed” mean? Is it English slang? I went to England in 2005 and what was funny to me was that half the time I’d say stuff to people and they would look at me like I just arrived from another dimension. One day I tried talking to random people on the street in London because I was looking for a place to watch a film. It took me a while to figure out that ya’ll use “cinema” not “the movies,” LOLOLOL!

    No, it does not hurt my eyes. Plus, my eyes are pretty sensitive.
