SKINCARE
How many times do you wash your face daily?
I wash my face twice, once in the morning when I wake up and in
the evening when I shower.
What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
I have oily combo skin, but in the winter, I do get some patches of dryness. (But
rarely)
What is your current facial wash?
I currently use the Neutrogena Deep Clean cream cleanser and Olay Fresh effect
with the electric brush.
Do you exfoliate?
Yes, every second or third day.
What brand do you use?
I use the St. Ive’s apricot scrub.
What moisturiser do you use?
I use the Nivea soft moisturiser (doesn’t make my skin oily!!)
Do you have freckles?
None at all!
Do you use eye cream?
Well, sometimes when I feel like my skin is stressed.
Do you or did you have acne prone skin?
No, I don’t have acne prone skin, but I do get the occasional blemish

MAKE-UP
What foundation do you use?
On days when I am tanner, I will use the MAC Pro Longwear SPF 10 foundation in
NW 35
On days when my skin is good I will use L’oreal Paris Nude Magique
BB cream in medium skin tone.
And every other day, I will use either MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15
in NW 35 or Revlon Colourstay for combination/oily skin in 320 true beige.
How about concealer?
On days when I have severe dark circles or a blemish, I will wear the NARS
radiant creamy concealer. (Check out my review here)
What do you think of fake eyelashes?
When applied correctly, it looks absolutely beautiful. Always remember to bring
your glue, because there is nothing more attractive than half an eyelash flapping
around!
Did you know that you are supposed to change your mascara every
3 months?
Yes, I did know this rule, but I am so bad at this! If I’m buying a $50
mascara, I will want to use it over and over until there is no more product
left, and sometimes that will exceed 3 months, what can I do?
What brand of mascara do you use?
I alternate between Benefit’s They’re Real and Maybelline Great lash or
Falsies.
Sephora or MAC?
Well, in Melbourne we don’t actually have a Sephora (WHYYYYY?!?!?), so MAC…?
Do you have a MAC Pro-card?
I have no idea what this is…
What makeup tools do you use in make up application?
Foundation: Sigma F80 flat kabuki brush
Setting powder: Real Techniques multi task brush
Contour and Highlighting: Real Techniques contour brush and Eco
Tools blush brush
Eyebrows: Eco tools angled brush
Concealer: Beauty Blender
And of course my fingers at some points!
Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes?
I generally don’t wear eye shadow, but when I do, I will just
apply some of the smash box photo finish light on my eyes.
For the face?
I use two makeup primer before applying foundation. I just don’t like the
feeling of putting foundation straight on my skin. I use the Benefit
Porefessional and Smashbox Photo finish light.
What is your favorite eyeshadow (colour or shade)?
I love to use MAC spoiled rich (ARCHE’SGIRLS collection), Urban Decay Naked
Buck, Smog and Dark horse and Lancôme Vintage.
Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?
Liquid liner all the way!!!! How else do you make your wing on fleek?
How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?
I rarely do anymore when lining my waterline and tight lining because of years
of practice, but to be honest I don’t line my eyes often.
What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?
MESSY! But pretty though!!!
Do you use mineral makeup?
I have tried it before, but never rebought it. Nothing against it though.
What is your favorite lipstick?
MAC Velvet teddy, or anything mauve!!
How about lipgloss?
I’m not a gloss person, but if I want some shine of my lips, I will apply some
Lucas papaw over my lipstick.
What is your favorite blush to use?
ELF blush in #40113
Do you buy your makeup on eBay?
No I haven’t, because my friends that have weren’t please with the product.
Do you like drugstore makeup?
YES OF COURSE! You don’t start with high-end makeup, you gotta start from the
bottom! Some drugstore makeup is better then high-end makeup!
Do you go to CCO’s? (Cosmetic company outlets)
No I don’t. I rarely hear of these things in Melbourne.
Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?
Yes I did, when I finished high school it was a backup plan if I did not get
into university.
Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?
I tend to be clumsier on my left eye and left eyebrow because I’m right handed.
Name a makeup crime that you hate?
Not blending eye shadow, wrong foundation colours or the “foundation line” and
over doing mascara!
Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or
neutral ones?
Definitely like a more neutral shade of makeup. But if it is a special
occasion, colourful ones are beautiful to use!
Which celebrity always has great make up?
I’ve been loving Khloe Kardashian’s and Blake Lively’s makeup lately! They
always look flawless, beautiful and radiant! Never over done.
If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item, what
would you use?
To be honest, moisturiser because we all should be able to flaunt our natural
face without being ashamed!
Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on?
Yes of course! My high school was quite strict on makeup, so I got used to not
wearing it out. And also because I like that extra 30 minutes to sleep in.
Do you think you look good even without any makeup on?
Umm, I don’t know… I do feel younger without makeup on.
In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?
Drugstore: Maybelline hands down! I am never disappointed with Maybelline and
their formula and colours just work so well for me!
High end: MAC for sure! I have a range of things from MAC and my
makeup is always on fleek with it!
What do you think of Makeup??
Makeup is meant to be a tool used to enhance beauty. We
shouldn’t abuse that!
If you feel more confident with your makeup, then flaunt! Don’t
let other people tell you otherwise and judge upon your makeup! Wear makeup for
yourself, and not for others!
With or without makeup, everyone is beautiful regardless.
