42 Beauty Questions Tag

I'm no beauty expert, but in the past year I've really come to enjoy buying, trying and applying makeup. So I decided it would be fun to do this tag. I'm not quite sure where this originally came from but here it is anywayyy! 

SKINCARE

1. How many times do you wash your face daily? Twice. Morning and night..
2. What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo) Oily, it's a nightmare:-(
3. What is your current facial wash? Beauty Formulas Oil Control Facial Cleanser. It contains grapefruit extract, so is really refreshing (especially in the morning) and it smells amazing!
4. Do you exfoliate? Nope, the little grainy bits freak me out a bit haha.
5. What brand do you use? Umm..none.
6. What moisturizer do you use? Simple Clear Skin Oil Balancing Moisturiser.
7. Do you have freckles? Not really, I have a few that come out in the summer, but other than that, I don't.
8. Do you use eye cream? Nah.
9. Do you or did you have acne prone skin? YES. My acne used to be really bad, but in recent months it's been slightly better. I'm on prescribed steroid cream for it, and used to have courses of antibiotics to take to treat acne. 
10. Did you ever have to use Pro-activ? Nope, I've never tried it.

MAKE-UP

11. What foundation do you use? At the moment I'm using Rimmel Stay Matte foundation, in the shade Ivory. I've wrote a bit about it in my January favourites, but overall it's a good foundation. 
12. How about concealer? Currently, I'm not using a concealer and I have never really found one that I like, so if you know any good ones then let me know.
13. Do you know your undertone color? I think I've got a blueish undertone colour, but idk. 
14. What do you think of fake eyelashes? I've only worn them once and I hated them. I have naturally long eyelashes anyway, so I don't really have a reason to wear them.  
15. Did you know that you are suppose to change your mascara every 3 months? No, I didn't. But I usually finish a bottle before then anyways. 
16. What brand of mascara do you use? I really like Max Factor MasterpieceMax, but just now I've been wearing Barry M Show Girl Extra Volume Black Mascara because when I read the reviews it said it was was good if you only wear light mascara, which is what I prefer for regular day to day wear since I have really long eyelashes. 
17. Sephora or MAC? Well, we don't have Sephora here in the UK, so I'm gonna have to say Mac.
18. Do you have a MAC Pro-card? Nooooope.
19. What makeup tools do you use in make up application? Umm, well I use E.L.F brushes. They're so soft and lovely. 
20. Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes? Nah, I'm under a strict time schedule in the morning haha. 
21. For the face? Again, no. But I probably should 
22. What is your favorite eyeshadow (color or shade)? Clinique colour surge duo in Blackberry Frost. One of the shades is a shimmery lilac with a hint of silver, and the other is a purple toned, dark, shimmery grey. They go amazingly together, or individually, and are perfect for special occasions.
23. Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner? Just now I'm using Mac Kohl eye pencil in Smolder.
24. How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil? Far too often, I always do it with the mascara brush too haha. 
25. What do you think of pigment eyeshadows? I'm not really a fan, I prefer subtle eyeshadow compared to a really pigmented shade.
26. Do you use mineral makeup? Nah.
27. What is your favorite lipstick? My favourite is my Mac lipstick in the shade Living Legend, but I also recently purchased a lip stain from E.L.F. The colour is Crimson Crush, it's really bright, but it is so pretty and makes my teeth look whiter. It's also a bonus that it's really long lasting. 
28. How about lipgloss? I hate lipgloss. It's so sticky and I'm not really about getting my hair stuck to my face.  
29. What is your favorite blush to use? Max Factor Miracle Touch creamy blush (14 soft pink)
30. Do you buy your makeup on ebay? Not usually. 
31. Do you like drugstore makeup? Yeah, I'm broke 84% of the time and usually spend my money on food instead of makeup. 
32. Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets) Ummm..nope.
33. Did you ever consider taking make-up classes? Nah, I'm not patient enough for that.
34. Are you clumsy in putting on makeup? It takes me about 5 minutes to slap my makeup on in the morning on weekdays. But usually I'm quite good at making sure it looks somewhat decent before leaving my house. 
35. Name a makeup crime that you hate? There's two makeup crimes I hate the most. The first one is the classic foundation line that occurs when it isn't blended into their neck, it stresses me out. The second crime is when people overdo the filling in of eyebrows so they look like slugs slowly slipping off the person's face. But whatever floats their boat.
36. Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones? I like colorful shades on the lips, but neutral on the eyes. 
37. Which celebrity always has great make up? Emma Watson, hands down. 
38. If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item,what would you use? Foundation, my skin is always quite gross, and going out without it makes me feel a lot less confident. 
39. Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on? I do sometimes, but not very often. 
40. Do you think you look good even without any makeup on? I'd like to say yes, but that's not the case haha. 
41. In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line? My favourite drugstore brand has got to be Max Factor, it's really good quality, and is always my safest bet. I've not really tried many high-end makeup brands, but I'd have to say Mac. 

42. What do you think of Makeup? I think makeup is a really good thing that can do a lot for a person's confidence. It's fun to experiment with, and can really complete a look. However, I think it shouldn't be something that a kid rushes into using, sometimes it's more stress than it's worth.
