The makeup and charm blog Monday Poll for January 5, 2015
Potresti chiederti, “Quindi cosa è in tanazione questa cosa del lunedì, comunque!?”
Well, it isn’t exactly a poll. È molto più di un elenco continuo (devoluto?), Un po ‘casuale di domande che ho messo ai lettori ogni lunedì mattina negli ultimi sette anni. (È come un kickstart per il tuo cervello.) Ho sempre lieto di leggere le tue risposte nei commenti, e spero che tu viva per leggere il mio.
Have you ever traveled out of the country for work?
A couple times, I have. occasionally I’ll travel for blog-related things, but they’re always very fast turnarounds, like you know, literally fly in and fly out, so I don’t get to spend a lot of time doing vacation-y things, but it’s always exciting.
Like a few years ago I went to Milan for fashion week and covered the Dolce & Gabbana show. I was the shortest person in the room backstage with Pat McGrath!
I also went to Toronto to visit the Estée Lauder can’t-remember-the-name research labs, and that was very cool.
Capes: a do or a don’t?
Maybe I just haven’t found the best cape…but for me, I feel like they’re a don’t, because I’m barely 5’1″ tall, and capes make me look like I’m drowning in material.
But if I ever found “the best cape,” I’d consider it.
Who’s the person you text the most?
Strangely enough, it’s my old work friend Neiman, and it’s always nonsensical stuff, typically pictures of food. like yesterday I sent him a picture of a broccoli and potato frittata that I made.
I guess it’s because we used to be food/diet buddies when we worked together in San Francisco, and we’d talk about exercising and eating salads, so now we just send each other pictures of food.
How is your skin doing so far this winter?
It’s been very fussy, but it was fine until Christmas, when we left the Bay area for a few days and went north to Redding near the Oregon border. It’s freakishly dry there, so I started breaking out.
I think it’s also because I’ve been eating stuff I don’t typically eat, like a lot much more fried food and sugary foods.
So now my skin’s hella dry, and I’ve got a little breakout, but it’ll be fine in a month or so if I’m good about viewing what I eat and start exercising again.
What’s the most unexpected thing you learned about makeup last year?
Probably that I don’t have to put a ton of stuff in my brows to make them look as lush and big and bushy as I like.
I look back on my brows and how I used to do them a year ago, when I would pack a lot of powder in them because I felt like I had to, but now I just use two things: a brow pencil and a brow gel, and that’s it for the same lush look.

Come va, amico mio? I hope your week got off to a good start. I went out at the crack of dawn this morning for a quick cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwich from Panera, and there was lots of traffic again, so it looks like the holidays are officially over…
Il tuo amichevole avvincente di Charm,
Karen.
