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. Neon bright eyeshadow — yes or no?
I don’t mind it! I like it when it’s worn in an edgy, casual way that’s not too overdone. I remember seeing a look a while back with a gal rocking bright orange shadow as a simple swipe of color on her lids, and I thought it looked super cool.
2. Have you ever had eyelash extensions?
Nope. I’ve been curious for sure, but I don’t have the time, energy or the beauty budget to commit to them. It’s just another thing to keep track of, you know? I’d rather just curl my lashes and chuck on some mascara and call it a day.
3. How do you feel about wearing shorts?
I like them in the summer because it gets super hot where I live, but now that I’m in my 40s I’m more picky about the fit, length, material, etc. If I’m gonna wear shorts in public, they’re gonna be looser around the thighs, have a mid-to-high rise and be long enough to cover my bum when I bend over, OMG!
4. What’s a multitasking makeup product that you like?
Oh gosh, bronzer for the win. Cream or powder, it doesn’t matter, just as long as I can dust it on the high points of my face for some warmth and swipe some into my crease for definition.
5. Your sunscreen pet peeve?
I have so many. I guess the main one would be when it feels sticky after you rub it in. When I can feel that suction-y, sticky feeling on the backs of my knees, the crook of my elbows or my neck skin. I just can’t deal!
6. How does your ideal gloss feel like on your lips?
Smooth, lightweight, a little sticky but not overly sticky. I really like how the Tower 28 gloss feels on my lips!
7. Speaking of lipgloss, would you rather have one that smells and tastes like pepperoni or tuna?
So gross! Pepperoni sounds a little less disgusting, though.
Happy Monday, my friend. How are you feeling? I’m a little touchy because I booked my dental appointment to deal with my two cavities on Wednesday, so while I’m relieved to be getting it done, I’m not looking forward to it.
I guess I should just be glad to have the access to a good dentist, sigh.
Anywho, I hope you’re feeling good today, and that the people around you are nice and lift you up.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
