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. Ice cream in a cone or an ice cream sandwich?
A single scoop of Baskin-Robbins pistachio in a sugar cone, please.
2. Do you usually wear base/foundation during the summer?
Depends on what I’m doing and how hot it is on any given day. If I’m puttering around the house or doing low-key errands, then typically I’ll do just a tinted sunscreen (both Avene and Bliss make good ones). If I’m meeting someone for lunch or have to go in to work, then something like Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua is what I’ll grab.
3. Last skin care product you bought?
It was a tube of sunscreen – shocking, I know! LOL. Anywho, I’ve been wanting to try a watery sunscreen to reapply over my makeup during the day, so I grabbed ISNTREE Hyaluronic Watery Sun Gel SPF 50.
4. How are your makeup skills?
Sufficient when it comes to quick looks. Anything too complicated… Eh, I could handle it, but it would take a good amount of time. A couple hours at the very least.
5. Chanel or Shiseido?
Both! Right this second, though, Chanel.
6. Something you want to buy for yourself?
Honestly, I want to say something fun, like a cruiser bike. Really, though, I could use a rug for my office. I’m thinking of getting a washable one from Ruggable. If you have any of their rugs, please spill the tea!
7. Would you rather roller skate or ride a bike?
I would rather ride a bike, but only if it’s a cruiser bike that comes with a basket full of well-behaved kittens.
8. How’s your summer garden going?
Eh, not so great. I’m not doing a deck garden this year because of all the stuff I have to deal with inside the house. The closest thing I’ve come to a summer garden is a basil plant that I bought at Trader Joe’s, which I bought specifically to eat!
9. Mascara primers: love ‘em or leave ‘em?
I mean, they’re great if you’re willing to put in the work. At this stage in my makeup journey, I will say leave ‘em. It’s just one more thing, ya know?
