25 Beauty Questions Tag

1. Do you remember your first makeup item?
I used to get makeup in my stocking at Christmas and one year I remember I had a rollerball lipgloss from Claire's Accessories. It smelled so good, however it did just look like I had smothered my lips in olive oil...
If we are talking proper makeup then it was a Rimmel face powder. I used to sneak it on in the toilets when I got to school because my Mum knew I wasn't allowed to wear makeup. It was far too light for my skin so I looked like a chalky ghost!
2. Describe your perfect mascara. Have you found one that fits your specifications?
One that makes my lashes look fake. The closest I have got so far is Too Faced Better than Sex however I still felt that I looked like a naked mole rat (not sassy) so ended up having Volume Eyelash Extensions - best.decision.ever.
3. What kind of coverage do you prefer from foundation?
Medium to full however I have just discovered Dr Jart - Premium BB Cream and I am addicted. It makes my skin look like it is glowing from within.
4. Favourite high end brand?
Estee Lauder
5. What cosmetic brands have you always wanted to try but still haven’t? 
Charlotte Tilbury
6. Favourite drugstore brand?
Loreal
7. Do you wear fake eyelashes?
Before I had my extensions, on a night out my holy grail eyelashes were Ardell Demi Wispies. I have a pea head and they are the perfect size, shape and volume.
8. Is there any kind of makeup you can’t leave the house without?
I love having no-makeup-days so no not really.
9. What is your most cherised beauty product?
Nars Laguna Bronzer - I've hit pan though - sad times. I am also newly in love with my Morphe eyeshadow palettes - 350S in my favourite.
10. How often do you shop for makeup? Do you like to pick up an item here and there or get lots of goodies at once?
Once a week generally - damn you Asos. I just buy items here and there though. It spreads the pleasure out!
 11. Do you have a “beauty budget” or you spend freely? 
I don't have a set budget so I am just sensible.......*cough*.
But I still live at home with my parents so have no living expenses. I really should start saving...
12. Do you utilize coupons, rewards cards and sales when you shop for cosmetics?
I spend so much on Asos that I earn vouchers most months - I usually use them to buy makeup rather than clothes.
13. What type of product do you buy the most of?
Surprisingly, cleansers and moisturisers. I've recently discovered Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Wash. De-licious.
14. Do you have a favourite place to shop for makeup?
Boots
15. Do you like trying new skincare products or do you keep a certain routine? 
Trying new products, even when I have discovered a routine that works, is my favourite thing.
16. Favourite bath and body brand?
Lush
17. If you could only buy from one brand, which brand would you choose?
Estee Lauder
18.  What brand do you think has the best packaging?
Nars - its so velvety soft 
19. Which celebrity always has great makeup?
Rosie Huntington-Whitely & Millie Mackintosh

20. Do you like multifunctional products like lip and cheek stains?

No - I know it is silly but I get scared I will have a reaction because the product is less suited to one of the parts of the body!
21. Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?
Bottom lash mascara never ends well! Also, I whack bronzer on like its going out of fashion. Looking back on photos in 20 years time I will laugh but for now...the bronzier the better!
22. Do you use makeup base/primer for the eyes?
Always! I bought the Nyx Glitter Primer for my work Christmas party and put loose glitter over the top - it lasted so well! Even after dropping my killer shapes on the dance floor for 6 hours straight.
23. How many hair products do you use on a typical day?
Zero. Ain't nothing gonna tame this mane. Oh, I use shampoo obviously! My current favourite (which is rare for me) is Loreal Elvive Extraordinary Clay.
24. What do you apply first, concealer or foundation?
Foundation.
25. Do you ever consider taking makeup classes?
I'd love to but find all the answers I need are on YouTube.
