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. A scent that cheers you up?
Anything citrus, really. It’s old-school, but I do love me some Clinique Happy. The lemony freshness from Annick Goutal Eau D’Hadrien is a happy one for me, too. Smells like sunshine!
2. A beauty product that is underrated?
The Jane Iredale Eye Shadow Kits are so good and so under-the-radar (Naturally Glam is my fave). I also have the Daytime Eyeshadow and Naturally Matte Kits on my wish list!
3. A lipstick that you’ve repurchased again and again?
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of MAC Velvet Teddy.
4. A beauty product that you used to dislike but now love?
When it first came out, I wasn’t a fan of Hourglass Retouching Fluid because I didn’t feel like it covered enough, but now that I’ve been doing whole “hardly wearing any makeup” thing, I looooove it. It subtly color-corrects dark inner corners without looking obvious, and it’s so kind to fine lines.
5. Best lipstick name?
Well, MAC Lady Danger, of course!
6. Something that soothes you?
The sound of gentle rain against a window. Mellow waves lapping against the shore. Watching babies sleep. Taking deep, steady breaths while I concentrate on the things I can see or touch in my immediate vicinity.
7. Plaid or polka dot?
Today, plaid because why not?
8. Something you’re working on?
Besides breaking unhealthy generational cycles? My core. Ha ha ha.
9. Linen or seersucker?
Seersucker, with pink and white stripes.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
