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 five more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a good start. ?
1. Banana or coconut?
Coconut.
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
I restocked the drugstore hair/body things I was running low on, namely Neutrogena clarifying shampoo, Pantene Rose Water shampoo and conditioner, and Dove Body Soap.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
Dainty nibbles when there are other people around (what’s that even like any more, LOL?!), but if it’s just me, myself and I…and Netflix, then I shove the whole thing!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
I think I have. I got a few little pimples just underneath my nostrils and around my mouth earlier in the summer, but that was probably mainly because I slacking on my zit lotion. After I got back on track with putting on Kate Somerville Anti-Bac two times a day, it went away.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
It was last March, just before I was laid off from the bakery.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
My b-day was in June, and it was low-key but fun. We went to a nearby beach, then got takeout from In-N-Out. I think I may have also gone to Sportsbasement to go look around?
You know how it is now; the bar is low, and a Double Double tastes like a three-star Michelin rated meal, hahaha.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral, all the way!
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
It’s SO not exciting, but if I could get myself in bed by 8:30 one night, it would do me a world of good. A little extra sleep works miracles!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

P.P.S. Hope you’re having a nice day so far. ?
Good morning!
1. Banana or coconut?
Even though I ate bananas almost daily, I prefer coconuts because of the scent (I hate fake banana scent).
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
I’ve just ordered from Amazon a L’Orèal eye cream and a Maybelline Total Temptation brow pencil.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
I do dainty nibbles, but when eating sushi I eat the roll in one bite.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
No, but I realized my new set of face masks make my skin more dehydrated.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
I think in March, but I’m unsure.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
Well for my birthday two weeks ago we had hamburgers at night with beers and cake. It was a little weird, but I enjoyed it.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Brown, most corals make me look awkward.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Doing yoga daily, I got back pain on Friday so all the weekend was about stretching, hot patches and resting.
Yesterday I baked your glazed lemon blueberry loaf and it is delicious, however I need to buy and oven thermometer, because the loaf was around 90 minutes in the oven and it really got too brown. And also it sank in the middle, so I’m all about your recommendations.
Happy Monday!! 🙂
1. Banana or coconut? Pineapple? HAHA! Gosh, I think maybe banana.
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! I finally got the Pureology Hydrate Sheer conditioner. I’m happy with it.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Totally shoving the whole thing in. I mean, unless I was in “fancy company” at which point I probably wouldn’t eat it at all because I can say for sure that the mess I’d make taking dainty bites while the food fell apart would be much worse than just eating it all at once. And neither would be pretty. HAHA!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? Yes, but it’s much better now that I’ve changed to the cloth masks. I found the disposables to be very irritating to my skin.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? I’m in one now. 🙂
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? My bday get together was literally one day before we shut down and everything was closed/banned. So my besties and their boys came to play board games and visit. It was our last hurrah for a long time!
7. Coral or brown lipstick? Brown, of course.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner (but powder shadow doubling as eyeliner, in my case).
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? Try not to listen to loud, uniformed, judgmental people with strong opinions on everyone’s choices/behavior/mistakes. It’s hard not to snap; and snapping doesn’t make the world a nicer place. Especially these days. 🙁
1. Banana or coconut?
Banana!
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
Target had some St.Ives face wash on clearance for $1.50 so I stocked up on that. I’ve never tried this one (it’s a chamomile for sensitive skin) but generally I’m not too picky about face wash so I’m sure it’ll be fine.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
Probably shove the whole thing without realize I’m doing it! I’m a fast eater!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
Yes, I get more zits on my chin than I used to do I try to use a salicylic acid wash on my face at least once per day.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
Today.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
My birthday is in January which is usually deathly cold in North Dakota. I usually just have a nice dinner and if it’s on a weekend maybe go bowling.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Get at least 3 workouts in and make some healthy meals today for the rest of the week.
1. Banana or coconut?
I like them both, but I guess banana if I have to choose.a local ice cream place here has amazing homemade coconut sorbet.
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
MD Solar Sciences Beauty Balm with SPF 50. It acts like a tinted primer, it’s very nice.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
I do a few bites.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
Yes!
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
I went into my office last month when no one was there to get some of my stuff since I’m working from home through at least October (started March 13th).
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
We just stayed home, I laid in bed reading and took the day off work.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral! I look terrible in brown lipstick.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner!
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Going to bed on time sounds good!
1. Banana or coconut?
Banana coconut! Otherwise, more consistently banana (in smoothies, sliced on oatmeal, etc).
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
I bought face oil (3 kinds!) and a few moisturizing sunscreens from credo beauty.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
I eat them in two bites. Occasionally pop the whole thing in if it’s crumbly or messy or somehow promises to be more tasty that way. 🙂
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
No, gratefully.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
Don’t recall! But I’m not a regular at them anyway in the past few years. Probably visiting a friend of relative at work last year (before March, obviously).
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
I don’t celebrate my birthday! I never have, so I don’t miss it. When I think of it, though, I take time to pause and celebrate my individuality.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
I love the idea of coral way more than brown, but a good coral has been hard to find that looks good on me. I don’t really know why. Coral nail polish looks great, but coral lipstick is always kind of meh. But I’m not really into brown lipstick at all right now (except my paramount lip liner, which I put under links for depth and emphasis….or did before masks), So I’ll say coral in the hopes I’ll find a good one soon!
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Lip liner.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Complete a raft of half-finished administrative and planning projects that haven’t been interesting enough to hold my attention, but which I can’t delegate and will greatly benefit from doing. Also, go on a walk or bike ride every day. I’ve been pretty good about but when it’s super hot don’t always make it out the door!
1. Banana or coconut? I love both, but if I have to choose…banana
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! MAC x Teyana Taylor lipsticks in A Rose in Harlem and Junie B. Very pretty, and I’m all about that transparent neon packaging.
3, When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? I eat them in 2 or 3 bites, but I don’t know whether I’d call them “dainty.”
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? No, but I’m at home most of the time.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? The beginning of April, when I was still working.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? I don’t know. I don’t think COVID will be under control enough to do much, so probably just have dinner and cake at home. My b-day is in October.
7. Coral or brown lipstick? This is tough. I LOVE a good coral lipstick, but I wear browns more often. So brown, I guess.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? I don’t know. Wear my new lipsticks?
1. Banana or coconut? Neither but If I gave to choose, banana
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! A new tube of IT tightline mascara and some Madison reed hair color
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? In public – dainty. Home – whole thing!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? I think the few have been more from sweat. They clear up overnight with some tea tree oil
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? Last week if my husband’s dealership counts. My job is the only business in the building so it’s an office building with one office
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? Mine was in March – right before shutdowns started. Went to dinner because a few days later we flew to Iceland and were there when the borders closed and the shutdowns started
7. Coral or brown lipstick? Neither
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? Mani – Pedi on Saturday!
1. Banana or coconut?
Coconut
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
It was MAC’s shot of color lip oil and Tatcha blotting sheets. The color turned out to be more neon coral than I expected, but since there’s no beeswax in the formulation I can wear it with no aggravation. I do find it drying, so it’s only to be worn once a week. I’m going to grab a nice red because it’s been years since I wore chic red lips.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
The whole thing!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
For me, masks don’t do anything. I’ve tried a few and notice nothing. Scrubs are more beneficial for me!
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
Today. Mon to fri. 40 hours a week. My office never shut down at all during this pandemic.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
Had a nice birthday bash planned for myself but had to cancel because of Covid.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
I have to be nicer to myself. I’m too hard on myself, and being such a harsh critic honestly gets you nowhere.
Hi, Karen! How was camping?
1. Banana or coconut? CCN!
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! Not sure what I was thinking but I bought a bunch of MAC eyeshadow pans in light, pastel colors. WTF?! I also realized I bought WAY too much makeup during lock down that will not even work for me and that I have no business wearing, so I will be sanitizing and giving away.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Quickly and inconspicuously SHOVE.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? I have it now on my chin. I always had a pretty textured chin, easily inflamed pores, but even infrequent mask usage really jacked it up. On top of LadyTime, my chin is like the most teenager-y part of my face these days.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? Last week. We are on a rotation a few hours a week. I go back tomorrow morning for my few hours.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? Last Tuesday we BiteSquadded chicken wings and binge-watched “Hot Ones.” 🙂 I love that show!
7. Coral or brown lipstick? Coral.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? Hm….ignore my mid-life thoughts. I just turned 49 and got turned down for a potentially life-changing job upgrade. In combination with lock-down, hubby not being able to work (he’s a musician), and political/social upheaval, it’s been hard not to internalize every little thing, despite everything else for which I have to be incredibly grateful (having *A* job, being healthy, loving marriage, roof over my head). That said, maybe continuing to practice yoga without fail every morning as my inner-confrontation-me-breathe time and IGNORE MY THOUGHTS!! 😉
Thanks for being our rock, Karen!
1. Banana or coconut? Favorite sundae has both. I eat more bananas
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! Very exciting. Mail order from Sheseido.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Dainty. Unless it’s just me and my friend.

5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? Last week Doctor appointments.

7. Coral or brown lipstick? Coral.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner.

2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! Armani foundation- The new one in the compact.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Depends how hungry I am.

9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? I’m going for a pedicure.
1. Banana or coconut?
Coconut!
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
It was an impulse buy at Target. I picked up e.l.f. Hydrating Camo Concealer (love it!) and Maybelline Cheek Heat Gel-Cream blush, which I have yet to try.. Why I need yet another blush when I haven’t worn blush in months the world will never know.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth?
I’m a dainty nibbler. That way if an item is surprisingly unpleasant, I can be a dainty finder of a trash receptacle.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
Not so far, thankfully.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
Two years ago when my brother picked me up at the train station but had to go directly to a meeting. I brought a crossword book but also performed door duty as the meeting was after normal business hours.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
It already came and went. Everything was starting to shut down, so there were individual phone calls with my family and that was it. I live by myself without even a pet, so, frankly, it was pretty depressing! I did go on a neighborhood walk and check out the blooming trees.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral for that summery feeling.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner; I rarely use lipliner and mask wearing has rendered it obsolete for the foreseeable future.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Get that mopping done. That sounds silly, but the chore is long overdue and it’s driving me nuts.
1. Banana or coconut? – Banana. Coconut seems like it’s too much work.
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! – Just received an order from Ulta with some things I was running low on. Take the Day off balm, my 2 favorite Essence mascaras, my favorite ELF Total Face Sponge, Garnier micellar water and I grabbed an Essence Shine Shine Shine lipgloss in clear.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? It’s being shoved in my mouth.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? Nope, not that I can recall anyway.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? About a month ago I had a doctor appointment near my office building. We’ve been working from home since March 15. I went into the office before my doctor appointment, tidied up my area and then went to my doctor appointment then home. It was weird being in there. I’m so used to my setup at home now.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? My birthday is actually Sunday (August 2). We are going out to dinner to Goose Island here in Philly. Me, hubby and both of our son’s with their girlfriends. It’ll be nice.
7. Coral or brown lipstick? I want to like Coral lips on me but I think they look weird. I’d go with a light nudish brown.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? To be honest, I really haven’t worn either since the pandemic. I’d probably go with eyeliner since the lip liner wouldn’t last with the mask on.
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? I think I’m gonna not stress about cleaning the house and relax and watch netflix.
1. Banana or coconut? ‘Nanar all the way! I like the flavor of coconut but not the texture.
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! I want to try a new mascara but don’t want to order one in this Texas heat. I imagine it sitting in some delivery truck melting & the formula breaking down. So I went to the drug store to try one – got home & it was waterproof! In the trash it went. Went back & picked up a Maybelline – don’t like it so I’m back to my stand by for years now (BTSex). Could you do a mascara review for me/us? 😉
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Shove & gulp!
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? Yes I have; under the nose and a weird breakout on my cheek.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? Ya know, I do not remember! I work (thankfully) but in a tiny building for a mom & pop company.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? It’s in about 2 weeks and ended up cancelling my Arizona trip to go birding – waaaahhh. So now I think I’ll just go to my local favorite lobstah house. mmmmmm
7. Coral or brown lipstick? With my coloring, I cannot do any corals 🙁 and even some browns are iffy. I usually go w/a neutral brown.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner with wiiiiiiiiings!!!
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? Hmmm, continue to look at very little social media, very little nightly news and order takeout! 🙂
1. Banana or coconut?
coconut. I’m allergic to bananas
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase!
I’m actually waiting to try a couple of new products from cosrx which I’m excited about. I am, however, loving the scalp treatment trio by Paul Kingsley which has helped my crazy pandemic scalp calm the heck down.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? If I know it’s going to be messy if I eat it in tiny bites then I’ll try to take it in one bite.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)?
Yes, by my chin and that was the last time I used that particular brand. All of the other masks have gotten along well with my face.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building?
Last month when i had to go into the clinic on my work campus to get a covid antibody test. Prior to that it was February.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year?
Completely low key and just immediate fam since it’s in Dec, at the height of flu season and it’ll be cold so if my cousin’s Tahoe cabin is ready and she’s not using it, maybe I can snag it for a weekend. If not, at home by the fire and hubby making my favorite meals.
7. Coral or brown lipstick?
Coral!
8. Lip liner or eyeliner?
Eyeliner
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week?
Eating at least one clean meal each day. We’re coming off of an in-law visit over the weekend and she made all of our fave comfort foods so it’s detox time.
Hope you and the fam have a good week! It’s been sunny and breezy so that makes for good outdoor activity weather!
1. Banana or coconut? Coconut! All day every day!
2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! Nail polish, I got my order in from Polish PickUp, it’s a once a month indie brand pop up store. I am loving the colors I bought!
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? Shove it in, always. But if I’m in public, I put a napkin over my mouth so I don’t look too crazy. I love food.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? No I don’t think so, when I use a mask, that’s all I use. I don’t put on any other products after a mask.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? For the life of me, I have absolutely no idea.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? I turned 45 in June, it was low key and simple. We got take out from Habit Burger and just chilled at home.

2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! A week ago I repurchased some of my favorite L’Occitane products since I had a discount promo. I bought Amande Huile Souplesse and Concentre de Lait (almond scented body oil and cream respectively), and Delicious Multi-Balm.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? I take small bites to better enjoy it.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? Thankfully, no. I don’t go out much so I’m not wearing a mask a lot of time like all those people who are out there working.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? It was in March. It was a dental visit.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? My B-Day was in July and I didn’t do anything special to celebrate. My guys and their special ladies called to wish me happy birthday–which cheered up my day–and my husband gave me a Sephora gift card.
7. Coral or brown lipstick? Coral. Brown is a trend that shouldn’t be repeated IMHO.
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner

6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? April 1…the awesome cops that I work with made me an awesome cake with “Happy Birthday Dog Catcher” on it; I’m an Animal Control Officer. Then a hike with the hubs and awesome home cooked Italian food!!

8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner!!
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? CHILL the F&CK out, lol!!! We’re closing on our first home tomorrow and I’ve been CRAZY stressed between that and work. So happy I’m taking next week off to move!!
Late to the game here.

2. Gimme the deets on your last beauty purchase! A bottle of Tonic polish Fire Heart and I’m So Pretty base coat.
3. When you’re eating bite-sized foods like bacon-wrapped shrimp hors d’oeuvres or mini brownies, do you take dainty nibbles, or do you shove the whole thing into your mouth? People are watching dainty nibbles. No one around one huge bite.
4. Have you had “maskne” before (it’s when you break out because of your mask, by the way!)? Can’t blame anything happening to my skin on my mask as all of it was going on before this mess started happening.
5. When’s the last time you went to an office building? January. Only because a lot of corporations in Japan also have museums in their office buildings.
6. How did you (or how do you) plan to celebrate your birthday this year? Haven’t decided yet. We’ll see what the virus situation is, the weather situation and whether or not there are wildfires when the birthday month rolls up.
7. Coral or brown lipstick? Coral
8. Lip liner or eyeliner? Eyeliner
9. What’s something nice you could do for yourself this week? So far…took Tuesday off for our 30th anniversary and explored Mt. Tam, Stinson Beach and Sausalito. Went to be early (anything before 10 is early for me). Did a SF Ballet zoom class this morning, will do it again on Friday. Have a training session at 7:30am Thurs.
