So…what is the Monday Poll?
Erinomainen kysymys! Se ei ole, toisin kuin sen nimi, todellinen kysely, kuten pikku klikkauspainikkeilla. It’s just a list of five much 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. Sunscreen — lotion or spray?
For my body, I like to do lotion first thing in the morning for my first layer, then touchups throughout the day using a spray.
As for my face, the routine is a little much more complicated (story of my makeup life, ha). When I’m not wearing makeup, I’ll typically start with a lotion, then do touchups with either a lotion or spray throughout the day…so when I’m not wearing makeup, it’s pretty straightforward; however, if I will be wearing makeup, then I’ll do two layers of lotion, starting with the first layer, then waiting 10 minutes, then applying the second, waiting a bit more, and then I’ll do my makeup.

It’s a process.
2. cream shadow stick, or liquid eyeshadow with a doe-foot applicator?
As of today, at this moment, let’s choose the cream shadow stick…but that could change at any minute!
3. For your mascara, pick two: waterproof, lengthening, thickening or curling?
Lengthening and curling please!

4. how do you feel about brushed up eyebrows?
I used to love them. Nyt? Not so much, at least on me. I used to feel like they looked Cara Delevingne-style voluminous, but lately I’ve felt like they’re outright aggressive. maybe it’s because I don’t have as much natural collagen plumping up my cheeks as I get much more and much more into my 40s? All I know is, the older I get, the much more flattering a softer, less structured and defined brow suits me.
5. name a type of charm product you’ve never tried.
Hmm… I’ve never used a tanning lotion. (Really don’t have a need to, LOL.)
6. If you had to microblade your own brows, how do you think you’d do?
Honestly, I don’t know. If I were numbed beyond belief, then maybe not so terribly? They’d be doable, I think…
Now, if, instead, I didn’t have anything to dull the pain? Girl, those brows would be a fright. I just know I’d get halfway through the first one before chickening out on the rest.
7. choose one brightly colored eyeliner to wear: neon green, cobalt blue, amethyst purple.
Amethyst purple.
8. What do you want on your ice cream sundae?
A smattering of chopped roasted nuts and a maraschino cherry. I’d also like two small sides of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce! That way I can pick and choose from each.
9. favorite place to get books?
It used to be the library, but I haven’t been there because pre-Covid times. Lately, I’ve been getting books from an independent bookstore in town called Copperfield’s. It’s mellow inside, and they have a good selection for a bookstore so much smaller than a common Barnes & Noble. Of course, even if you can’t find the book you want, they’ll purchase it for you.
