So…what exactly is the Monday Poll?
Great question! Contrary to what the name suggests, it’s not a traditional poll with interactive buttons. Instead, it’s a collection of fairly random queries I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for what feels like an eternity (since 2007).
1. What eye cosmetics have you been using repeatedly lately?
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara (well, it’s just OK), Stila Liquid Liner Micro Tip (pretty decent) and trusty old Anastasia Brow Pencil.
2. How adept are you at finding well-fitting clothes?
I used to be decent at it, but lately, I don’t enjoy in-person shopping as I once did, so I don’t take the time needed to find things that fit well. My clothes always have something slightly off, and I just kind of accept it. Blergh! On the brighter side, my outfits are at least ironed and somewhat coordinated.
3. How well do you manage to resist impulse buys?
Quite well!
4. Where do you typically have lunch?
At home. Since I work nearby, I can quickly stop by for a bite. Honestly, I just enjoy going home so I can kick off my shoes. FOOT FREEDOM!
5. Choose one: with shimmer or without?
I generally avoid shimmer. Super dull, I know… I could use more disco in my life!

## **This Week’s Beauty Poll Questions**
### **1. What’s your preferred summer foundation or base product?**
As warmer weather arrives, many of us modify our foundation routines. Do you lean towards a lightweight tinted moisturizer, a full-coverage foundation, or perhaps just a touch of concealer? Share your favorites!
### **2. Matte, glossy, or satin lips – which do you favor?**
Lip trends continually evolve, and each finish has its unique appeal. Are you a fan of striking matte lips, luscious glosses, or elegant satin finishes?
### **3. What’s one beauty item you cannot leave home without?**
For some, it’s mascara; for others, it’s a dab of lip balm or a touch of concealer. What’s the one product that always finds its way into your bag?
### **4. Have you experimented with any viral beauty trends recently?**
Social media frequently introduces new beauty tips and trends. Have you tried underpainting, latte makeup, or the “clean girl” aesthetic? Share what worked (or didn’t) for you!
### **5. What’s your beloved self-care beauty routine?**
Beauty isn’t solely about cosmetics—it’s also about self-care. Whether it’s a soothing face mask, an indulgent bath, or a skincare regimen you swear by, we’d love to know how you relax and treat yourself.
