Makeup and charm blog Monday Poll, Vol. 375

The makeup and charm blog Monday Poll for June 1, 2015
Ίσως να αναρωτιέστε, “Έτσι τι στην αμαρτία είναι αυτή η Δευτέρα Δημοσκόπηση Τέλος πάντων!” ”

Λοιπόν, δεν είναι ακριβώς μια δημοσκόπηση. It’s much more of a continuously 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 delighted in reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you delight in reading mine.

How comfortable are you posing for photographs?
Most of the time I’m pretty comfortable, although to be honest…it partly depends on who’s taking the picture. I can’t lie! I have control issues.

If I’m taking the pictures myself, of myself (myself of myself?), then I’m fine because I can set everything up exactly the way I want, but when someone else is the photographer, in some cases I’m like, “Here, why don’t you tilt the video camera like this?” or, “How about we face the light from this angle instead?” or “Let’s relocation everyone about a foot to the left so the garbage can isn’t in the shot.”

Honestly, I typically end up just grabbing the video camera and taking the pictures myself, which is why I’m rarely in a lot of group pictures.

Finish the following sentence: glitter is…
…an absolute necessity sometimes.

How often do you wear hair extensions?
Rarely, if ever. I’ve worn them a couple of times (mostly after I’ve chopped off my hair), but I don’t like the extra weight on my head.

I do eventually want to try some clip-on bangs, though! I’m still searching for a natural-looking pair that I like.

If you could jump on a plane best now and go charm shopping for 24 hours anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Ooh! So tough. It’s a tossup between Milan and Japan. On my brief trip to Milan a few years ago I saw a lot of cool charm stuff over the course of just half a day walking around, so I’m sure if I had a full 24 hours I’d find some real gems.

But I think I’d rather go to Japan because I’ve never been there before. I’d stock up on face masks, brushes, false lashes and as numerous strange products as I could find. Either way, fun!

Pigtails on adults: a do or a don’t?
Generally, a don’t for me, although I was guilty of wearing them with reckless abandon in the late ’90s (*cringes*). I wore them to clubs and to class, but never to work. I do have to say that I have seen some gals (and some guys) who can legitimately pull off the look, but it’s a rare thing.

Good morning, sweet friend. I’m having one of those Monday mornings where I feel like I need to treat myself with extra tenderness. Does that ever happen to you? yesterday was one of those “cry at the drop of a hat” days (thankfully, I managed to avoid Target), and so today I’m having emotional leftovers for brunch.

At the moment I’m trying to do all of the little things that typically help me feel better, like I put on a t-shirt that makes me pleased (it’s covered in cats!), I drank some tea out of my favorite teacup, I lit my current favorite candle by Aveda, and now I’m searching for some joyful music.

ΔΙΑΦΗΜΙΣΗ

I hope you’re having a good day so far. Do something good for yourself.

Η φιλική γοητεία της γειτονιάς σας,

Karen
