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. A beauty topic that you’ve been interested in lately?
Niche perfumes! I love the idea of finding scents that are a little off the beaten path. I kinda stumbled into it through work because I’ve been reading a lot of perfume reviews to feed my brain different ways to describe scents. If you happen to be into niche fragrances, please let me know your favorites. I’d love to hear about them.
2. The name of a new product you’ve tried recently?
Last week I took my new bottle of Avene RetrinAL 0.1 Intensive Cream for a spin, and WHOA. I was not ready for the level of exfoliation. I sometimes forget that I need to ease myself into these things, ya know?
3. Have you ever had really long nails?
Yeah, I had long, natural nails up into my mid-30s. They were fun to paint but a pain to keep up.
4. Speaking of nails, red nail polish or blue nail polish?
Blue nail polish! Dark blue, with a shiny finish please. Yes, I’m still thinking about that Chanel nail polish.
5. Big hoops or little hoops?
In non-pandemic times when I didn’t have to wear a mask, big hoops. Currently little hoops, because I just can’t deal with too many things getting in the way of my mask. Between earrings, my glasses, my hair — it’s just too much!
6. What did you have for dinner last night?
A Cesar salad and a hunk of rosemary focaccia bread thanks to Trader Joe’s. Lately I’ve been really crabby about cooking and the salad kits at TJ’s have been saving my life.
7. Hot chocolate with or without marshmallows?
With tiny little marshmallows, please.
8. Where’s the farthest place you traveled this year?
Oahu last summer. It had been a while since we’ve visited El Hub’s side of the family.
9. Gold, silver or bronze eyeshadow?
I’ll take bronzer, please.
