Well, it isn’t precisely a poll. It’s more of a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random listing of concerns I’ve been putting out to visitors every Monday morning for the past nine (!) years. (It’s like a kickstart for your brain.) I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, as well as I hope you enjoy reading mine.
1. team Contour, or team Highlight?
Oh, my gosh! — pom-poms for team Highlight, since a) for me it’s just so much easier to blend a shimmery highlight, as well as b) the results are much more instantaneously gratifying.

Honestly…I understand that contouring is a huge thing in makeup these days…but I just can’t stand it. I feel like it’s overdone, as well as everybody as well as their mom feels the requirement to reshape their face.
Why?? I don’t want to feel like I have to make my nose look straighter or my cheeks look more chiseled. I like the method my deal with is, as well as I don’t want it to be sharper. I like the roundness of it. I like the chubbiness of my cheeks.
Anywho…

2. Do you have any type of tie-dye anything?
Nope, as well as the only time I ever had a tie-dye anything was freshman year at college. It was one of those getting to understand you events, as well as everybody had to bring a white shirt to tie-dye.
I truly wasn’t feeling the whole tie-dye process, so I made a gradient on my shirt instead of a traditional tie-dye. It had a patch of blue, then a patch of green, then a patch of yellow… There was truly nothing tie or dye about it, as well as that was the closest I’ve ever gotten.
3. What were you performing in the year 2000?
Fabulously messing up in life. I had just graduated from college, was in my early 20s, as well as I had no concept what I was doing… Still don’t have any type of concept what I’m doing.
I was living in San Francisco at the time as well as working as a junior legal assistant at a legislation office, which meant that I filed stacks of papers in a filing space that I had virtually all to myself.
My manager was so chill… Some days I would come into the office, shut the door as well as really take naps at my desk.
In hindsight, I acknowledge that this was a poor thing…
4. exactly how commonly do you inspect social media?
Probably as well much. I glimpse at Instagram as well as Facebook every few hours. I desire I inspected them less commonly because…does anybody available have a sloppy, untidy life? I do.
5. Do you ever avoid using makeup to work?
For sure. even though I’m right here composing about makeup, I don’t sit at my desk using false lashes every day. Some days when I’m testing products, I’ll wear just one thing, instead of doing a total look, or I won’t wear any type of makeup at all since I’ll be working on a non-makeup project.
The early bird…
Waking up early on the mornings on the weekend — who knew? So bomb. I woke up early on both Saturday as well as Sunday, which I don’t do all the time, however I may do it more commonly now.
I got up early on Saturday since I had plans for lunch with a friend, as well as I wished to take care of the grocery buying first, so I got up, got prepared as well as went to Trader Joe’s at the fracture of dawn.
Dude, Trader Joe’s is the location to be at the fracture of dawn. It was just me as well as five other focused ladies, as well as it was excellent because, for the very first time ever, I had my cart with me the whole time! It’s usually so congested there that I have to park my cart somewhere, stake out a spot, walk to the kale or whatever, as well as then walk back as well as put the kale in the cart.
It was nice to have my cart in front of me for once…
I likewise plan to get up early tomorrow to prevent the lines at my polling place. Tomorrow is election Day here, as well as it’s gonna be…frantic.
In the spirit of trying new things, I likewise want to try some new looks this week. I hope that you try something new as well, whether it’s a new makeup looks or something else in your routine.
Life is short, ya know? You may also switch things up every when in a while.
Whatever you’re up to, my fellow resident of the earth, I hope you have a excellent week.
Your friendly community beauty addict,
