The makeup and beauty blog Monday Poll for February 16, 2015
Du kan måske undre dig, “så hvad i tarnation er denne mandag poll ting alligevel!?”
Nå, det er ikke ligefrem en afstemning. It’s more of a constantly 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 enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.
Talking animals in commercials: yes or no?
Oh, hell no. They freak me out! Please back to the days when — gosh, what was that movie called? The incredible Journey? There was also Homeward Bound, the one where the animals have to cross the wilderness, and they talk along the way, but their lips don’t actually move.
Maybe I’m just a throwback to the days of yore, but for me, that’s how I picture animals communicating.
Best fashion/beauty first aid tools to bring with you and keep in your purse wherever you go?
Band-Aids, yo! Or, if you’re feeling really super fancy, Moleskin, which you can get at Walgreens. Either way, they serve the same function.
Basically, if you have a sore spot on your feet — and with me being a shoe person, this happens often, especially with a new pair of shoes — you just stick the Band-Aid on your heel or wherever that spot is to protect it from rubbing and chaffing against the shoe.
Åh! — and tide pens. Those are terrific because you never know when pizza or spaghetti sauce will go a little cray-cray. very handy when you’re wearing white.
Also, that double-sided fashion tape to keep your bra straps stuck to your clothes and hidden from view, and mini-lint/pet hair rollers, and good old-fashioned safety pins (the tiny ones are terrific for wardrobe malfunctions), and a little case of Advil/ibuprofen, because it sucks to have a headache ruin an evening.
If you could totally redecorate your house, what would you do?
I would rip out all of the carpet and put in hardwood floors. I would fix the stairs, because Tabs treats them like his own personal cat tower, so the carpet covering the stairs has been torn to shreds.
I’d redo the windows to make them more energy efficient. I would paint each and every room in the house a different color, and I would completely revamp my kitchen and get new countertops, new cupboards and a new, larger sink, because my tiny sink drives me bonkers.
And that’s just for starters.
What’s been your favorite accessory to wear lately?
These Kate Spade gumdrop small square studs.
I love those things! They go with everything, and I also have a necklace from a designer, whose name I can’t remember now. It’s a delicate gold necklace with a letter “K” pendant.
What’s your favorite way to play or experiment with color when it comes to beauty (nail polish, hair, lipstick, blush, eyeshadow, etc.)?
Hår. Helt bestemt. I love to change the color of my hair, and I’m currently going through a dark hair phase.
I love hair because you can see it every day, and it’s easy to change.
(Well…I’m not changing it. My pal Alis is changing it.)
You can make a super dramatic change in your look by changing your hair color, and it can completely change what colors you wear on your face and how you dress. I feel like a different person when I change my hair color.

First of all, happy President’s Day! Second, I think I figured out the key to Valentine’s gift-giving, and I think it might be power tools.
Apparently nothing says “I love you” like power tools.
I gave El Hub this thing called a jig saw, and his eyes lit up! Power tools: who knew?
I hope you had a nice weekend. Hvad gjorde du? Did you do anything fun, and did it involve cats?
