Saturday Surfing, October 1, 2022!

October 1st, 2022 by Karen 5 Comments

A matching mommy and me manicure!

Happy first day of October, friend. We’re headed to the pumpkin patch today, so to celebrate this exciting event, Connor asked if we could do matching orange manicures. 🎃 I let her pick out a shade at Ulta, and she chose a creamy pumpkin shade of Sally Hansen Insta-Dry (768 Tis the Sea-Sun). Considering that I painted our nails last night while I was half asleep, I think our matching manis turned out OK!

What are pumpkin patches like out your way? The ones in our area have hay mazes, corn pits, games and petting zoo animals, and at some farms, they even have pumpkins which you can even remove fresh off the vine.

I’m just hoping it’s not going to be too hot at the pumpkin patch today because in the past, we’ve baked in the heat! I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I can’t wait for the weather to be cool and cold again.

This week’s reading

  • Does using powder before foundation lead to longer lasting makeup?
  • Yes, Harry Styles has a beauty brand, and yes, there’s makeup.
  • Winter makeup trends that I can totally get behind: ’90s monochromatic makeup, single color eyeshadow and glowing skin.
  • I honestly never realized how many variations of clown costume makeup existed, LOL!
  • If clowns aren’t your thing, then how about cat makeup?
  • Aaaaand now I want to try ALL THE FOUNDATIONS!
  • Lining the waterline is having a moment.
  • Here’s how Mally Roncal created Beyoncé’s legendary “Dangerously in Love” look. Hint: she used gloss on B’s brows.


I’m here for this.


And now I can’t wait to watch this, too!


Rosie Pose, I’m lookin’ at you.


Note to self.


Gorgeous!

Have a great Saturday, and please make a little time for rest today! It’s important.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen
