The makeup and beauty blog Monday Poll for February 2, 2015
You might be wondering, “So what in tarnation is this Monday Poll thing anyway!?”
Well, it isn’t exactly a poll. It’s more of a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past seven years. (It’s like a kickstart for your brain.) I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.
Do you belong to any of those beauty subscription services (Birchbox, Glossybox, Julep Maven, etc.)?
Alas, no. but you’d think I would, me being the beauty junkie I am.
It’s just…I’m kind of uncomfortable with the element of randomness. I know I wouldn’t use 99% of the things in there, and I need to have control over the situation… It’s an issue.
Do you ever stop to compliment strangers on their makeup?
YES! and I think it really freaks them out, especially the guys, but with guys it’s usually just brows.
The last time it happened, El Hub and I were at the movies. A young man was ringing up my popcorn, and I was staring at his eyebrows, which were really full and lush-looking and perfect, so I said, “Dude, your brows are kinda killer,” and he stopped and sort of laughed and was like, “Thanks, I got them waxed at benefit today.”
El Hub was mortified, but I couldn’t resist. The kid’s brows were amazing!
Bowl cut or mullet?
Oh, gosh… Well, if I have to pick one, I suppose I’ll go with the bowl cut, because at least that way my hair will move with me when I whip my head around, and I like that idea. and it would also accentuate my blush and contouring, if I did some.
No hats either. I mean, if you have a bowl cut, you have to show it off. That’s the rules.
Have you ever given your pets a Valentine’s Day gift or card?
I’m almost ashamed to say this, but I don’t think I have; however, Tabs has given cards to El Hub to show his love and appreciation.
But for me to get a card from Tabs, it would have to mean that El Hub got the card on his behalf, which has yet to happen.
How’s your comedic timing?
Well, my life is a comedy of errors, so I think it’s pretty good!
No, really, I think it’s decent.

Ugh, I have weekend hangover…
Not because we partied hardy or anything, but I had such a fun, relaxing weekend, and I’m a little sad to see it go.
But that doesn’t mean today can’t also be good.

Whatever you’re up to, I hope things are going well and that your nails aren’t chipped.
