40 Questions of Beauty

How about concealer?

Collection 2000's Lasting Perfection Concealer.

Neither.

Do you have a M.A.C Pro-card?

Yes, I use UDPP, Elf's ones or a Mac paint pot.

For the face?

Either YSL's or Witch or 17's.

Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?

Both!

How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?

Not that often anymore...

What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?

Bit messy but can be stunning. My favourite at the moment is one by Terre d'Oc that I received in my Amarya beauty box.

I have a mineral foundation? It's liquid but I haven't used it yet.

Don't have a favourite as of yet.

How about lipgloss?

Nars Pillow Talk because it was bought for me by someone important, also it's very pretty!

Do you buy your makeup on eBay?

No, never.

Do you like drugstore makeup?

Yes.

Do you go to CCO's? (Cosmetic Company Outlets)

No. I'm also pretty sure we don't have those here in the UK.

Yes! I booked one which turned into a nightmare and I never actually took the class.

I don't think so, I tend to concentrate really hard!

Probably eyeliner.

Yes, I do it all the time!

Not necessarily good, but I don't look hideous or anything. Just a normal person :)

In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?

I love Urban Decay/Bobbi Brown/Nars/YSL and I really want to try more Benefit. I'll say Urban Decay for now!

What do you think of makeup?

I think it's incredibly fun to play with and buy. It shouldn't become anyone's life I don't think, unless of course you're a makeup artist etc. I mean in the sense that no woman should be completely obsessed with it and think she doesn't look good without it. It's good fun :)
