SKINCARE
How many times do you wash your face daily?
On a normal day I wash my face once.
What skin type do you have? (dry, oily, combo)
Not entirely sure but probably oily/normal. It's not usually super dry or super oily but it does have an occasional temper tantrum.
What is your current facial wash?
Mario Badescu's Enzyme Cleansing Gel - this is seriously the most amazing cleanser ever. I started using this cleanser when I was in high school and I had horrible skin but since using this cleanser for over six years my skin has been really good.

Do you exfoliate?
If you asked me a couple of days ago the answer would have been "no" but I recently decided I needed an exfoliating scrub in my skincare arsenal. I have just started using St Ives Green Tea Scrub and I also have my eye on a scrub from Origins. I'll let you know how it goes.

What brand do you use?

Did you know that you are suppose to change your mascara every 3 months?
Yeah I did actually know this fact but before this year I probably only wore mascara once every three months so I didn't keep to this rule. Now that I'm wearing it once or twice a week I might think about throwing my mascara out after a couple of weeks BUT it's been discontinued and I don't have a back-up......

Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes?

For the face?
I use to religiously use Rimmel's Fix & Perfect Foundation Primer and I really loved it however I haven't used it for a couple of months. Probably due to the weather, it's been so hot here this summer!!!

How about lipgloss?
Palmer's Dark Chocolate & Peppermint Lip Butter is a super yummy lipgloss that goes on clear and glossy and is great when worn alone or under/over a lipstick.

Do you like colourful shades of makeup (lipstick, eyeshadow) or neutral ones?
I prefer neutral tones that look natural however I also think that some people look great with a pop of colour e.g. a bright lippy or some colourful eye shadow, but never together!!!!

Moisturiser with SPF
Moisturiser with SPF
Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on?
Sure, I do it all the time although if it is summer I will always put sunscreen on. Probably some lip balm too. Even when I do put make up it is usually only foundation and lipstick or gloss. Sometimes a tiny bit of mascara too.

In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?
Revlon has a consistently reliable and interesting collection of make-up that can be used by all types of people. From their lip butters to their foundations and nail polish you always know it will be of high quality. However they are a bit pricey if not on sale so if you are looking for a bargain you can't go past Essence.

What do you think of makeup?
Generally I love make up and I think it can be quite fun! You can use it to express yourself if you are brave or you can use it like I do and go for a natural look that gives you an extra boost of confidence.
