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 more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007).
1. Vanilla or musk?
Oh, I like both notes! Let’s go with a musk today because I’m feeling nostalgic for the musk scent by the Body Shop that I used to wear in the early 2000s.
2. Cilantro — yes please or no thank you?
It doesn’t taste like soap to me, so I don’t mind a little bit.
3. A perfume bottle you think is pretty?
There’s something timeless and feminine about Tocca bottles which I love. I also love the clean lines of the Chanel bottles.
4. Something you need to do this week?
Put the tree lights and ornaments on the Christmas tree. I’m hoping to get it done by this evening so we can light it up tonight!
5. Face oils: your thoughts?
I like them for layering with other products. On their own, oils aren’t enough for my dry skin.
6. Chocolate or peppermint?
Chocolate!
7. How’s your hair at the moment?
Absolutely out of control. LOL! It’s been raining for the past few days and the humidity makes my waves extra cray, so I just tuck my hair underneath a hat and call it a day.
8. Satin, shimmer, matte or cream?
Matte or satin for lipstick, cream for nails and shimmer or satin for eyeshadow.
9. Finish the following sentence by writing something nice about yourself: I am _____.
I am smart, and I am organized, and I am surrounded by so much love!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

P.P.S. Hi there, sweet friend! I hope joy finds you this week in unexpected places. 🤗
P.P.P.S. My neighbor gave me some turnips fresh from her farm! Aren’t they beautiful? Thing is, I have no idea what to do with them. If you have a recipe that you like, please leave it in the comments for me.
