I snagged this from Cinda because well..it was about makeup, and I wanted to do it!

SKINCARE

-How many times do you wash your face daily? Twice. Once in the morning and once at night.

-What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo) I would say for the most part I have combination skin. Sometimes it can be either dry or oily but most days it’s both..just in different places.

-What is your current facial wash? Murad Energizing Pomegranate Cleanser

-Do you exfoliate? Twice a week.

-What brand do you use? Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser

-What moisturizer do you use? Murad Energizing Pomegranate Moisturizer

-Do you have freckles?  Normally I have a couple on my face. Since it’s Summer and I’ve been out in the sun a lot I have a LOT.

-Do you use eye cream? I do not, but I’ve heard to start using it in your 20s, so maybe I should!

-Do you or did you have acne prone skin? I have a few mild breakouts every now and then, but I’ve never had full-blown acne covered skin.

MAKEUP

-What foundation do you use? I have 3 that I alternate between- MAC’s Studio Fix Fluid, Almay’s Clear Complexion, and Revlon’s Photo Ready.

-How about concealer? Normally MAC Studio Finish, but I’m trying ELF’s Tone Correcting Concealer right now and I’m LOVING it, it smells like fruit!

-Do you know your undertone color? Yellow.

-What do you think of fake eyelashes? I think they’re okay..there’s a time and a place and I don’t/wouldn’t use them every single day.

-Did you know that you are supposed to change your mascara every 3 months? I did know that, I normally change them in that time frame.

-What brand of mascara do you use? Maybelline Great Lash in Blackest black! Only way to go <33

-Sephora or MAC? Sephora definitely. MAC only sells MAC, Sephora has everything..not just makeup!

-Do you have a MAC Pro-card? I do not.

-What makeup tools do you use in make up application? It depends on what I’m doing… my staple brushes are the 217 and 224 though, blending brushes!

-For the face? Yes, Too-Faced, Smashbox, and MAC all make a good face primer.

-Are you clumsy in putting on makeup? No.

-Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones? I prefer neutrals, but I do rock colorful eyeshadows/eyeliners on rare occasion.. I won’t put on a colored lipstick or mascara or any of that though.

-What do you think of Makeup?  I adore it, honestly. If I could do/play around with makeup for the rest of my life I would. It’s such a fun and creative outlet!
