SKINCARE -
How many times do you wash your face daily?
at the moment i have NO bathroom...awful i know! so probably only wash my face once a day and use a face wipe in the morning. i wash my face twice a day normally though!
What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
Oily and dry in places with this horrible winter weather!!
What is your current facial wash?
I was using soap and glory peaches and clean but i had the worst breakout of huge spots i have ever had from something i had been using so i stopped everything i had recently started using and brought Vichy gel face wash as its made for oily blemish prone skin, so far so good.
Do you exfoliate?
Yes! i love that feeling of scrubbing your skin with a good scrub and feeling ultra clean!

What brand do you use?
i use boots no7 for oily skin it makes your skin feel so soft and clean!!
What moisturizer do you use?
la roche posay effaclar k at the moment. As i mentioned I had a horrid reaction to something i was using so read up on things good for combating blemishes and this was something i thought would help. its amazing, it makes your skin soft without making it oily. it also seems to be making my skin less red, i have only been using it for a week or so now but so far i love it.
Do you have freckles?
yes, they come out in summer, i wish i had more i think they're rather cute haha!!
Do you use eye cream?
i wish i did i just purchasing soap and glory super eyes super eyes gel. as skincare was 3 4 2 in boots i thought i would give it a go. but i am not very loyal to applying it every day!

Do you or did you have acne prone skin?
i have always had a few spots every now and then but never acne. my skin is the closest it had ever come to acne this past month. i couldn't handle it. i am 24 and had these huge spots, its pathetic i know. my skin is on its way to getting back to normal with the help of panoyxl gel and keeping it nice and clean!
Did you ever have to use Pro-activ?
no! it would be great to try it though!
MAKE-UP
What foundation do you use?
estee lauder is the only foundation that lasts on my skin. everything else seems to melt off. I love it!
How about concealer?
I use the tinted garnier roll on in very fair and i also recently brought Vichy Derma corrective foundation which covers everything and anything perfectly!
Do you know your undertone color?
i have quite pink undertone i think & i have quite a cool skin tone.
What do you think of fake eyelashes?
I love them! I would love to have permanent eyelash extensions or wear falsies every day but i don't think that is very practical! plus it takes me about three days to apply them!!!
Did you know that you are supposed to change your mascara every 3 months?
yes, but i have a whole drawer of mascara i cannot bear to throw away! i don't use them i just like to have them there...please don't call the men in white coats... i'm normal...
What brand of mascara do you use?
my favorite ever mascara is L'Oreal telescopic...its the most amazing mascara and i am on my 3rd tube! i cannot see me ever loving anything more! i really want to try the YSL mascara though!
Sephora or MAC?
as i'm in the UK i don't have access to sephora so i would love sephora to come back to the UK!! you always want what you can't have right!??!
Do you have a MAC Pro-card?
No :( that would be a happy day for sure!!
What makeup tools do you use in make up application?
mostly sigma brushes, and my hands!

not always but i do try! i love mac paint pots best for primer! i have the UD PP but don't love it!
For the face?
yes, with double wear your really need a smooth base for it to glide on and look natural. my favorite primer is Laura Gellar Spackle i use the champagne one! you get a huge tube of it and it last forever!
What is your favorite eyeshadow (color or shade)?
I always wear pretty neutral shades so anything bronzing brown. I love naked pallete 2! it has every colour i could ever need!
Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?
At the moment I use pencil liner. If I have time i will use liquid! i use Revlon grow luscious liner. its amazingly pigmented and stays put all day, the best liner i have ever used! i also use Une concealer pencil in my waterline if i feel i am looking a b it sleepy!
How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?
every day? Haha....no not too often....:-\
What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?
i rarely use them. as i normally do my make up at stupid o clock in the morning so don't want to mess around with pigment!

Do you use mineral makeup?
yes! i love it! i usually wear bare minerals it gives your skin such a glow, i also felt like it actually improved my skin. but i need a lot of coverage at the moment but as soon as my skin is better i will be back to the bare minerals!
What is your favorite lipstick?
I could not just pick one lipstick! my fav brand is illamasqua lipsticks they last on your lips so well. i also love nyx paris, mac viva glam gaga is the most beautiful pink!
How about lipgloss?
I don't really wear lip gloss. i think the Revlon lip gloss' are not too sticky.
What is your favorite blush to use?
I just brought natural collection blush in sweet checks, its amazing! but my all time fav blush is benefit coralista and mac springsheen both coral and gold! gorgeous!
Do you buy your makeup on ebay?
Yes! i brought a few mac products and only one was fake. i also got my Nyx lipsticks from there. and bobbi brown concealer. I think if the price is too good to be true then its obviously going to be fake but if it seems ok go for it!
Do you like drugstore makeup?
Yes! i love when boots has 3 4 2 offers on makeup because you feel like you can buy things you wouldn't normally. I am getting more into higher end makeup now but i would never not buy 'drugstore' makeup!
Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets)
no but i would love to! but there is none near me :(
Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?
Yes, but i have not got the time! i want to go to an illamasqua makeup lesson as i love the brand! hopefully sometime this year i will!
Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?
errr....i'm just clumsy in general! but i'm not too bad at putting makeup on!
Name a makeup crime that you hate?
ahhh....i hate a lot of things lol! over plucked brows, dark lip liner, too many false lashes so people can barely open there eyes. (did i just describe Jordan...haha!)
Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones?
i never wear colour on my eyes, but i love colourful lips! also a bright colourful blush is good! i think i own one nude lipstick thats gathering dust!
Which celebrity always has great make up?
i love dita von tease's makeup and also kim kardashian always looks stunning. gwen stafani rocks red lips well too!
If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item, what would you use?
errr....at the moment it would be foundation or concealer. when my skin is OK it would be mascara!!
Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on?
yes! i often go out with no makeup on and then slap on the makeup when i'm on the train. at the moment i am so worried about my skin i try and get my foundation on before i go out!
Do you think you look good even without any makeup on?
no! lol! i think sometimes i look ok but not right now!
In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?
Illamasqua! but i have never tried their foundations i use such a mixture of brands! but i feel Illamasqua are very 'me'!
What do you think of Makeup??
I love it! You can do so many things with it! its a form of art and look back in history its all a part of it!
