1. Do you remember your first makeup item?
Well, I would assume it was something like lipgloss but I would definitely say eyeshadow from one of those little cheap gifts that you get when you're about 6 years old.
2. Describe your perfect mascara. Have you found one that fits your specifications?
I actually haven't tried a huge range of mascaras because I feel like the ones I have bought so far have been great. I have short and straight eyelashes so I need a waterproof, volumizing mascara. Right now I'm using L'Oreal's Paris False Lash Butterfly Wings waterproof mascara and I enjoy how it elongates my lashes while making them look really natural
3. What kind of coverage do you prefer from foundation?
Light! I can hardly wear medium foundation without feeling like a cake face.
4. Favorite high end brand?
I haven't tried many to be honest. I have some Napoleon Perdis but I can't say I love the products.
5. What cosmetic brands have you always wanted to try but still haven't?
A lot. Especially NARS and Benefit.
6. Favorite drugstore brand?
Well I have a large range of Maybelline products but I must say Bourjois is pretty darn good
7. Do you wear fake eyelashes?
Yes, but only for special occasions where professional photography is involved
8. Is there any kind of makeup you can't leave the house without?
Lip balm
9. What is your most cherised beauty product?
My Dolly Wink liquid eyeliner even though there is none left =(
May sound odd, but concealers! Especially ones for dark circles - I can't seem to find the perfect one. Maybe there isn't one after all...
I am in love with Givenchy packaging. I was playing with it for about 15 minutes.
I've always loved Leighton Meester's makeup in Gossip Girl
Yes, everyday.

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?
Pretty much every time I pass a Priceline. I actually have to tell people to steer me away if we are close by to one.
11. Do you have a "beauty budget" or you spend freely?
Definitely have a beauty budget! I don't touch high end products and pretty much exclusively spend $30 or less on most products
12. Do you utilize coupons, rewards cards and sales when you shop for cosmetics?
In Australia we don't receive coupons... But if we did I suspect it would end ugly.
13. What type of product do you buy the most of?
14. Is there a brand that you absolutely can't stand?
Not particularly. I think each brand has something good to offer. The only brand I don't buy products from is BYS because I've had mostly bad experiences with it.
15. Do you avoid certain ingredients in cosmetics like parabens or sulfates?
I don't, but I should.
16. Do you have a favorite place to shop for makeup?
Priceline!!!
17. Do you like trying new skincare products or do you keep a certain routine?
Well I don't really have a skincare routine so I guess no, I don't try new skincare products
18. Favorite bath and body brand?
The only "body" brand I can use is Sorbelene without forming hives all over my body. With bath products, I can only use SOME Lush products.
19. If you could only buy from one brand, which brand would you choose?
Maybelline
20. What brand do you think has the best packaging?
I love Givenchy's packaging!
21. Which celebrity always has great makeup?
I don't know why but I have always loved Leighton Meester's makeup in Gossip Girl.
22. Do you belong to any online makeup communities?
No
23. 5 Favorite Beauty Gurus
Bubzbeauty, Andreaschoice, Dommsmiles, no one else I think!
24. Do you like multifunctional products like lip and cheek stains?
Not really, I never found them to actually work as good products as both functions
25. Are you clumsy in putting makeup?
Sometimes I forget a step such as doing my brows or applying mascara
26. Do you use makeup base/primer for the eyes?
Yes, everyday.
27. How many hair products do you use on a typical day?
I use Clear's Anti-Dandruff shampoo along with the Strong Lengths conditioner. When I use the straightener, I spray the heat protector by Toni&Guy
28. What do you apply first, concealer or foundation?
When I wear it foundation, concealer first but sometimes I don't even apply it.
29. Do you ever consider taking makeup classes?
I guess, it'd be cool to be able to put on makeup on other people professionally but I have never thought about it
30. What do you love about makeup?
Especially for someone like me, I find it hard to believe when someone says I look 'beautiful' because I guess my whole life I never felt very beautiful. But when I enhance my features like the shape of my eyes or the highness of my cheekbones, I can see what everyone else sees.
