Hi everyone, I thought I would do a fun Beauty tag post for you today for some light, easy reading and it was a bit of fun for me.
Hope you enjoy :)
The Questions:
SKINCARE
-How many times do you wash your face daily?
Usually twice a day; morning and night, however if I have a show in the evening and have been wearing normal make up during the day I will cleanse my fave before applying stage make up.
-What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
I have combination to dry skin, my cheeks and forehead are really dry but I can get a bit oily around my nose.
-What is your current facial wash?
La Roche Posay Physiological Cleansing Gel is my standard facial wash. If I'm in need of a deeper clean I will use Estée Lauder Perfectly Clean wash/mask.
-Do you exfoliate?
Occasionally if I feel the urge to - you know sometimes your skin feels like a bit itchy and needs a bit of a scrub??
-What brand do you use?
La Roche Posay. My favourite skincare brand.
-What moisturizer do you use?
Day time I use Estée Lauder Day Wear over the top of Hydralauron gel and at night I use Kiels Ultra Facial Creamon top of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum.
-Do you have freckles?
Nope. I wish I did though - freckles are so super pretty.
-Do you use eye cream?
No, although as I'm heading towards my mid twenties I feel like I should be using an anti-aging eye cream.
-Do you or did you have acne prone skin?
Yes and it is still so super prone to acne.
-Did you ever have to use Pro-activ?
No I haven't ever used it or been recommended to use it.
MAKE-UP
-What foundation do you use?
Totally depends on what sort of skin day I'm having or what I'm doing or what the occasion is. During the day I would tend to just wear concealer and powder, if I were going on a night out I would wear MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation - shade NW10, for going on stage I always wear Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse in shade Cameo. My most favourite foundation ever was a Benefit Play Stix in shade Jax but it was discontinued a few years ago and I am gutted. I have such pale skin I struggle to find foundation to match my skin.
-How about concealer?
Unsurprisingly it's the beauty blogger favourite Collection Lasting Finish concealer. I just love it.
-Do you know your undertone color?
Cool toned pink.
-What do you think of fake eyelashes?
I know I am rubbish at applying them. I only wear them if I'm on a big stage. I would never wear them in real life though - I am lucky and have naturally long and thick lashes.
-Did you know that you are suppose to change your mascara every 3 months?
Mascara would never last me 3 months. I go through A LOT of mascara.
-What brand of mascara do you use?
Benefit They're Real has been my go-to mascara for ages but I got a sample of Lancome Hypnose Star the other day and oh my I love it. Will definitely be purchasing a full size tube of that next.
-Sephora or MAC?
MAC.
-Do you have a MAC Pro-card?
No I don't.
-What makeup tools do you use in make up application?
A varied collection of Real Techniques, MAC, Body Shop, Estée Lauder and Benefit brushes.
-Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes?
Yes, I'm currently using a Soap and Glory one I picked up called Eye Bright and I'm really liking it.
-For the face?
Yes I love the Laura Mercier Radiance primer.
-What is your favorite eyeshadow?
Urban Decay Tease.
-Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?
Depends what look i'm going for, more often than not I use liquid though.
-How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?
Not as often as I poke my eyes with my mascara wand, ouch!
-What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?
I think they're messy and much prefer pressed eyeshadows.
-Do you use mineral makeup?
I don't own any.
-What is your favourite lipstick?
MAC Rebel.
-How about lipgloss?
I'm really not a lipgloss kind of girl. I don't own any that I actually like.
-What is your favourite blush to use?
Benefit Dandelion.

-Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?
Yes I would so love to go on a make up course!

On other people yes. I really struggle doing other people's make up. I'm not clumsy really when applying it on myself.

-Do you think you look good even without any makeup on?

No make up line is perfect but for the sheer amount of options, shades, products, tools it would have to be MAC.
