Heya, ladies. Guess which blog just turned three years old. 🙂 Yup, that’s ancient in internet years! MBB’s officially a senior citizen.
Sorry about the hiatus from video, but I’m gonna do them more often now. Here’s a quick tip I learned from makeup artist Billy B, who explained that moisturizers are good for more than just moisturizing.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Love it!!! Most videos give me tips, but I have never heard some of those. You look AMAZING! Your skin looks flawless and I love the pearls 🙂
Funny thing is, on Facebook I kept coming out super pale and my face looked chalky, and I didn’t know why and neither did my friends! I use Clinique’s Tinted Moistuirizer with SPF 15 and I didn’t even know 🙂 thanks so much!! I want more MBBTV
Ha ha ha, Tabs has more roles than poor Karen.
Yay for more videos. We <3 MBB.
Oh yes, Zena wanted me to send you this particular photo:
My New Coat
Nice tips !! and you should be doing more of this 🙂
Congrats on reaching 3 years! That video was awesome, you should definitely do more of them. How’d you do the cool background?

Hi, kristen! Yup, 3 great years.Tabs actually the videos for me in exchange for gravy. 🙂 He used Adobe After Effects, a little bit of Photoshop, a great animation program called Anime Studio and something called Final Cut. That cat loves software, haha!
I like you so much more now Karen. I didn’t even know it was possible. Thank you for the video and I’ll be sure to use these tips>
🙂 You are too cute, ShonoiF.
Have a fantastic week!
I love the video! I look forward to more.

Heya, Deconstruction! I’ll be doing more, so check back. 🙂
Happy Sunday…
Love this video, and great tip! Can’t wait for more of these!
🙂 Hey, Devs! Hope you had a fab weekend.
Aw, you look so cute! I want your skin, grr. I appreciate that Tabs produces your videos XXXXXXS
…and I think that means “hello” in cat. Tigger clearly appreciates a production by a fellow brown tabby.
Hurrah!!! Happy blogiversary my dear 🙂
.-= Rae’s last blog post… Lash Boosting: Week One =-.
Thanks, Rae! 🙂
Yay, congrats on 3 years! Love the video, and I’m looking forward to more. Also, I love bloopers (sometimes they’re my favourite part of watching a show…).
Me too! 🙂 I especially love watching the scenes where people are trying NOT to laugh… those crack me up!
I agree, those are totally the best! It’s especially awesome for those where they laugh and you see their true personalities and interactions with others, which are often completely different from their characters (usually mean, dour, or sulky characters :P).
Karen, you look fantastic! I love your videos. Where did you get that green dress? I heart it! =))
Hi Jess,
I bought that dress from Marshall’s a couple weeks ago. It’s a Calvin Klein that I basically got for half off… I love that store!
That was cute! Happy 3 years!
.-= Amber’s last blog post… Cure for the common cold =-.
Hi Amber,
How’s your weekend been? I can’t believe it’s already Sunday… am fully NOT prepared to face the week.
Oh heyyyyyyy, look who’s compositing! This is quite the upgrade from your previous vids. Fancy! And love the outtakes.
Now how about some Tabs vids and give Rich + Winston a run for their money (where is Rudy, btw?).
And thank you for the SPF reminder. Got a summer wedding coming up!
Poor Rudy! Winston seems to always snatch the spotlight away from him!
Wait… are you getting married or are you gonna be in a wedding?
your skin looks fab. happy anniversary.

That’s our good old Laura Mercier foundation! 🙂
Congrats for reaching 3 years! Here’s to many many more 🙂

Hey Paris!
Thanks very much. I hope you weekend was great! 🙂
Haha yay it’s cool to see you talking and moving as opposed to just reading your blog (does that sound creepy? Maybe slightly). You’re so cute!
I love the intro!
And the tip of course, but mostly the intro and pink background! I love all your other videos, but this one definitely sets a more professional tone and image!
Happy blogiversary!
This may seem weird but I’m really hypnotized (for lack of a better term) by your voice. O.o This video is so fun to watch. It feels like I’m watching one of those fashion week videos. Heehee.
You. Rock.

Congratulations! It’s been great, and I’m looking forward to seeing more of your amazing work!
Congratulations Karen! Can’t believe it’s three years already, awesome!

Congrats! Looking foward to more videos! I like that they are short and sweet =)
Flashy video, Karen! Nicely done 🙂
.-= Audrey’s last blog post… I’m such a dork! =-.
Congratulations!!! I love ur blog, so please keep it up for another 3×100 years 🙂
.-= V.’s last blog post… Denim =-.
Yeey for the video, you were super adorable!!
I’m on the hunt for a new moisturizer (is that the hardest word to spell or what?!) because my oily skin developed some dry patches on my cheeks, probably due to the cold weather. Not even my Clinique Dramatically different moisturizer is helping anymore…
Awesome vid! And congratulations on 3 years, Karen!
Congrats on reaching 3 years! I always love to read your blog, Karen, and here’s to many more years to come! I LOVED this video—please give Tabs my kind regards on a great directing job, too. Great tips, and I never thought about using a brush to apply moisturizer before. Right now I’m just using fingertips for both moisturizer and foundation, but when I do convince myself to use a kabuki for foundation, I’ll definitely try it out. Thanks so much! P.S.: Your skin looks fantastic in the video!
Congrats, Karen, that’s so great! My blog is just a bit more than 1 year so far 🙂

Hey Karen,
Your video made me smile 🙂 Congratulations on the blog becoming 3 years old! I will try out that tip of using a foundation brush to apply moisturiser. Props to u and Tabs!
This is the first time I’ve seen one of your videos. Your warm and sunny disposition come shining through. I enjoy your humorous approach (i.e. the Rouge Coco series) and can see why you’ve been going strong for three years. Congratulations!
Love the video! It’s so much fun to see you “live”. You should be on E, interviewing people about their makeup and skincare routines -You have a great prescence. And as usual, Tabs did a great job with his multiple responsibilities. I hope your craft services table includes lots of Fancy Feast and gravy 🙂
congrats on 3 years!!!!!!! youre one of the only 2 makeup blogs i read.. rock on sister! heres to many more years to come!!
Congratulations! I’ve recently discovered your blog and I just love it! I look forward to each and every entry from you and base lots of my purchases on your advice. Keep up the great work!
Great tip with the makeup brush! I just shared with my bestie and I’m now following your updates! Thanks =)
Happy anniversary! Great video – you’re completely adorable! Can’t wait for more 😀
Congratulations on the three year anniversary! Lovely video – I couldn’t figure out why my face kept on going so white in photos when in normal lighting, I look normal. Now, I know it’s because of the SPF in my moisturizer. I can now avoid people screaming, “OMG!!! IT’S MICHAEL JACKSON!” when they see me in photos.
Happy birthday MBB!!! I’ve been a follower for a few month and I love it!!!
Thanks for the video!
have a fun day, Karen!
kiss

Using a Moisturizer Before Applying Makeup
is it true that people with oily skin need not wear moisturizers under their makeup?
Lots of moisturizing products make me break out or itch. Thank GOD I found the Citrus Clear Control Moisturizer because I can use it liberally and my face feels instantly fresh! There is no waiting necessary. You can instantly apply your makeup after and it is 0% oily.
I typically can not sleep in other moisturizers without waking up with little white heads (gross) and I can apply Citrus Clear morning and night after i wash my face. Even my toddler uses it in the winter on his little cheeks.
