Update: Comments, Giveaways, E-mails, Tweets

Hey there!

I’m behind on…EVERYTHING!

Just a quick word…I’m very behind on comments. I have about 800 some odd comments to get through. I’m going to try really hard to make a dent in those this week so if you haven’t heard a reply from me that would be why.

Likewise for for emails and tweets!

Giveaways from Christmas are now closed, obviously right? I’ll be selecting and alerting winners this week. Between New Years and being sick I didn’t have a chance to get through all the comments on the giveaways so I was delayed getting winners posted.

I’m also behind on reviews. When you’re sick makeup doesn’t always look so fab especially with a red, running nose, dry cheeks, chapped lips, etc….! So I didn’t really do many posts that contained reviews last week. Hope to redeem that this week!

I hope you’re all ready for a good week ahead. I have a ton of reviews upcoming for you and plenty of news on Spring 2013 launches.

Talk to you all shortly!

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse. If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

  • candice nicole

    I totes understand – Everyone around me is sicky poo and I cannot even bear the thought of feeling glam with makeup on when I’m under the weather! Rest your pretty little face until you feel 100% and then come back because I’ve missed your reviews!!!

    • the Muse

      <3 aw thanks candice! I'm feeling much better today but man my skin needs some serious tlc it's so dull! my lips are so damn chapped...! I need a facial lol and a good lip exfoliator ;-D Stay well! Don't get sick with all of it going on around you! Take lots of Vitamin C ;-D

  • LINDARRAGNAR

    Hope you feel better soon!! 🙂 take your time we all understand!!!

  • Tammie

    Just happy to hear you are feeling better :). I am too, just got my cough still but that’s always a problem for me (once I get a cough it takes forever to shake it).

    • the Muse

      thank god cough went away still have a crushy, crunchy nose 🙁 but aside from that seems most of the issues are fading. Hope your cough goes away soon chica! take some halls they taste awful but always help!

      • Tammie

        My nose isn’t perfect either, it’s making the cough worse but at least it’s not coming out the front lol. As for taking things to help the cough I’m afraid I think it’s because of my asthma that I always have trouble shaking it…I’ve tried everything OTC you can think of but nothing has helped in the slightest. Oh well at least I am not having coughing fits anymore, small victories lol

        • the Muse

          it prob is. my dad has bad asthma as well and the winter is hell for him..coughing all the time. and nothing to do with a cold either but when he has one it gets even worst 🙁 I’m so sorry to hear it! at least you have decent san fran weather and not brutal new york cold to deal with!

          • Tammie

            Yup I don’t even have to be sick it just sticks around for ages after I have had something that triggers it (allergies, cold, whatever). Sucks because I was just starting to really get over the LAST cough when I got sick =_=. Yeah it’s pretty mild here thank goodness, though sometimes it gets pretty windy and this time of the year (right around my birthday, lucky me) is when my allergies tend to pick up U_U;

  • Tiffany Martin

    Take care of yourself, we’ll still be here when you’re well again ^_^

  • Cindy Ramirez

    Aww, I hope you get better soon! I feel like you’ve been sick so much this Fall/Winter season. Nooo! I need my Muse reviews! I really can’t tell you how much I love and adore your honest reviews, especially since I’ve been duped into buying products other reviews or youtubers ‘say’ is good and its complete shite. I will gladly wait for your opinions and thoughts on anything in the beauty world!

    • the Muse

      awww I’m great cindy sorry delayed reply…yes twice 🙁 boo! awww I love you thank you SO so much!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • BLee

    Don’t worry Musey girl. The MU can wait. We need you well. I added extra oils to my skin care and boiled some water to add to the super dry air here in the house. It helped!!! 😀

    • the Muse

      hey blee! yeah, dry heat here too, ugh awful! I steamed my face tonight, scrubbed and polished it until it was read ;-D and slapped on two different korean facial sheet masks…ah relief ;D

  • Miho Mallory

    Your health is always the most important priority! And when you’re sick it’s hard to feel pretty lol Just work on getting better and everything else will fall into place~ Plus when you fall behind you might feel too overwhelmed, like you’ll never catch up but just hang in there. I’m sure you’ll work it out~
    I’m glad you’ve addressed this though lol I was checking the giveaway pages and my e-mail multiple times a day and thinking “I must not have won anything which is why I haven’t gotten any e-mail..” I’m actually holding out on purchasing one or two things just in case I get super lucky. x’D
    Happy New Year and get well soon!
