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 lip product you wear often?
The OG Laneige Lip Mask in the pink jar. I use it every night!
2. Your favorite blushes — GO!
Lately I’ve been bouncing between Chanel Malice, Laura Mercier Ginger and Chanel Les Beiges Blushes in No. 22, 25 or 20.
3. What are you up to today?
The usual mix of working, mom-ing and juggling all the things, LOL! I have a bunch of deadlines due early next week, so I’m trying to get those squared away in the first part of the week.
4. Water with or without a squeeze of lemon?
Hmm, with a squeeze of lemon please.
5. Something you can do just for you this week?
I’m going to try to exercise first thing in the morning. I got back into the habit last week and realized it sets a good stage for my day when I do it early.
6. What’s your go-to method for styling your hair?
I use a curling iron with a large barrel (the T3 Bodywaver) on a low heat setting to curl the top layers and the ends into loose waves. Then, I’ll smooth the flyaways around my part with hairspray and clip them down with flat, no-crease hair clips. I keep the clips in until I have to hop on a video call or leave the house, LOL!
7. Besides your wallet, phone and keys, what are some things you always carry in your purse?
Hand sanitizer, a disposable toilet seat cover for kids (if you have a little one who grabs onto the sides of the toilet, these are a lifesaver!), emergency snacks (cashew packets from Trader Joe’s) and a Chantecaille Lip Chic.
8. The colors you wear the most?
Hmm, well, if we’re talking clothes, I wear a lot of neutrals — black, gray, white, beige and blue. Honestly, this color palette does nothing for my soul, but it allows me to 1) get dressed without having to think too deeply and 2) appear somewhat put together, and that’s where I’m at right meow. If we’re talking makeup, then, coral, taupe, brown, pink and red.
9. Something that made you smile today?
I had my windows open this morning, and I heard the bells ringing joyfully from a nearby church.
