Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 891

So…what is the Monday Poll? Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. How good are you at keeping plants alive? I used to be OK at it, but these days not so much. I think I could still be if I wasn’t so busy with taking care of the other living things in my family (human, cat and dog, LOL). One day soon, though, Connor won’t need me as much, so maybe then I’ll get back into gardening. 2. A drugstore beauty staple you swear by? Aveeno body moisturizers. Sure, they’re not particularly exciting in terms of ingredients, but they keep my skin happily moisturized without any irritation, and the scents don’t aggravate my migraines. 3. What’s worse: getting a really itchy bug bite or having insomnia? Insomnia, hands down. 4. How often do you iron your clothes? Most[Continue reading...]

Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 871

Man, some of the neighbors around here used to have no respect for authority. Everyone knew that Tabs was the head honcho. He was the CFO (Chief Feline Officer), for meowing out loud! Like the local turkey troupe? They were always monopolizing the corporate salad bar. One day, Tabs wanted to grab a quick bite before he started some intense kitty modeling negotiations with Dior, but he couldn’t because of these guys… The nerve! There was a lot of unsanctioned outside activity. Everyone should have known that the so-called golden hour first thing in the morning was when Tabs liked to take his walk, so there shouldn’t have been any unsanctioned horseplay or activity. This guy even had the unmitigated gall to dig a big hole right next to Tabs! Can you even imagine? Some gophers are so disrespectful… 🙂 Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, Karen

It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. What’s your favorite genre of novels?

Tube with a wand, please. 4. One thing you’d like to do this week? Go to the gym on Tuesday. After three years of mostly ignoring exercise, I’m trying really hard to get back into the habit. 5.

Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 870

Tabs… One year on a very special Labor Day, Tabs gave the employees of Tabs the Cat Industries LLC the day off… I know! This came as a shock to everyone because Labor Day was normally one of the holidays the company did not observe, because Tabs liked to interpret “Labor Day” as meaning “a day to labor,” instead of as a day to celebrate labor by taking a day off. 🤔 Even though I basically ran the office on a day-to-day basis, it was hard to question him. He was, after all, the most successful plus-size kitty supermodel in Novato, California, history, so he obviously knew what he was doing. Even though Tabs didn’t encourage time off from work (he was a total workaholic), there was one thing he did encourage… Fashion! He always dressed to the nines, and he liked to see his employees do it too. Whether it was clothes, jewels or crowns, there were always people and cats playing dress-up at the office. Yup, it was a fun place to work.[Continue reading...]

It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. Is lipstick an everyday thing for you? Yes! I usually start the day off wearing lipstick. As the day goes on, though, I move into gloss because it’s easier for me to apply for touch ups. Just swipe and go! 2. Bright colors or earth tones? Lil’ bit of both. 🙂 3. What’s the most-used tool in your makeup routine? My fingers! I use them to blend and apply minimal base and blush, mostly, and sometimes to swipe and blend liquid or cream eyeshadow. 4. A makeup trick that you’ve been loving lately? Layering brown eyeshadow on top of black eyeliner. I love how it softens the black liner, so you still get a good amount of impact, but it isn’t as harsh. 5. How closely do[Continue reading...]

Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 869

Poor Marnie. 😥 After struggling for weeks to get on Rosie’s good side, and to get away from her claws, Marnie, using the power of her mighty derp, realized that the key to Rosie’s heart is through her mind. In hindsight, this makes perfect sense, because Rosie is, after all, an award-winning cat scientist. Anyway, Marnie got to work last weekend looking for a scientific breakthrough that she could use to impress Rosie. Something, anything, to get on Rosie’s good side. Unfortunately, it wasn’t easy… Nope, not easy at all… It’s tough when your mentor has, like, eight degrees and a Nobel Cat Prize in Physics. Not to mention a feline genius-level IQ… Tabs was different. Obviously, he was also a cat genius, but he was also way more stylish and approachable. Where Rosie takes a scratch-first-ask-questions-later approach to dealing with Marnie, Tabs was always very patient with less scientifically minded creatures. But then, we’re talking about Tabs here. He was omega-level greatness. 😊 Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, Karen
