42 questions on all things beauty!

Hello Everyone! :)

This is officially my second post for the day, I'm just in a complete blogging mood!
So I was reading beautybyroisins blog which is awesome, you should check it out at http://www.beautybyroisin2.blogspot.com/ She had a '40 beauty questions' post which was a great read. It had great questions that im definately in the mood to answer and I thought what the heck lets post for a second time today... :P
So here it is!

-How many times do you wash your face daily? I wash my face twice throughout the day - first when I wake up before my shower and late at night in time for bed :).
 -What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)  I have a mixture between oily and combination.
-What is your current facial wash? My Liz Earle Hot Cloth and Cleanse.
-Do you exfoliate? Hmmm.. no? :/
-What brand do you use?  For a couple of weeks now I have been using Liz Earle and I highly recommend it, its amazing! It does the job perfectly, leaving you with squeaky clean skin (however it is moisturising!) and my skin has a new found glow on a day-to-day basis.. LOVE IT!
-What moisturizer do you use? Olay Beauty Fluid
-Do you have freckles? I do not.
-Do you use eye cream? Not yet, no.
-Do you or did you have acne prone skin? I have had acne prone skin since I was about 15.. it'd not nearly as bad now as it was back then but I do still have break outs on a day to day basis sadly :( that is why I love experimenting with different foundations to hide any blemishes!
-Did you ever have to use Pro-activ? what sorry? Aha.
-What foundation do you use? I alternate between expensive and drugstore foundations. At the moment Revlon Photoready throughout the day and Laura Mercier Silk Creme on nights out!
-How about concealer? At the moment I am loving my Benefit Erase Paste, however I am a loyal user of Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection, it has great coverage for a concealor!
-Do you know your undertone color? I'm not certain but the lady at the Mac counter told me I was a bit of both warm and cool!
-What do you think of fake eyelashes? Lovely they add such drama to a look, but are bloody tricky to put on!
-Did you know that you are suppose to change your mascara every 3 months? I sure do but don't neccesarily agree with it.
-What brand of mascara do you use? Currently at the moment I am LOVING Revlon's Grow Luscious.. it has a fantastic thick wand!
-Sephora or MAC? MAC because sadly we do not have a sephora in the UK :( but I love visiting it abroad!
-Do you have a MAC Pro-card? I do not.
-Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes? I do, currently at the moment I am using Urban Decay Primer Potion but I would love to try out Two Faced Shadow Insurance.
-For the face? Yes, my Benefit pore-fessional!
-What is your favorite eyeshadow (color or shade)? Without a doubt Mac's Satin Taupe.
-Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner? Liquid occasionally but mostly Maybellines Dramatic Gel Liner.
-Do you use mineral makeup? I am not at the moment, no.
-What is your favorite lipstick? Probably Revlon's Colourbust in 075 Peach
-How about lipgloss? Revlon again!

-What is your favorite blush to use? I adore my Natural Collection blush in Pink Cloud
-Do you buy your makeup on ebay? I've bought an OPI nail varnish from ebay before and I'm eyeing up a sigma contouring brush from there at the moment!

-What makeup tools do you use in make up application? I use brushes, sometimes my hands.. is that a tool? hehe. Also a powder puff to apply my MMSF as it gives a much better finish than a brush!
-How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil? Every now and then when I am applying pencil to my water line, it normally knocks my contact out BOO! :(

-What do you think of pigment eyeshadows? I have never really tried them tbh, but somehow they don't appeal to me much at the moment.

-Do you like drugstore makeup? LOVE IT, that is all.
-Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets) I think that is an American thing? So no.

-Did you ever consider taking make-up classes? No, I love experimenting with makeup as a hobbie but its not something I'd be interested in for a career.
-Are you clumsy in putting on makeup? Aren't we all at times? hehe.
-Name a makeup crime that you hate? Lines of blusher and false eyelashes that LOOK FALSE

-Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones? I prefer neautral eyeshadows but I do love a bright lipstick! I hate wearing nude lipsticks they wash me out.
-Which celebrity always has great make up? Nicola Roberts or Cheryl Cole, both from 'Girls Aloud'
-If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item,what would you use? MASCARA

-Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on? Potentially, yes. However I'd feel really self-conscious about my skin :(.
-Do you think you look good even without any makeup on? I look alright!

-In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line? For a drugstore makeup line Revlon or Bourjois. High end Mac because it is quite an affordable high end brand, with lots of choice! Plus Laura Mercier because I love their face products.
-What do you think of Makeup? Its AWESOME! As sad as it sounds the best part of my day can often be putting my makeup on because it's so fun :) Cumon girls I know you feel the same!!

I hope you have all enjoyed, be sure to comment and let me know what you think :)



So that is all for this evening, Goodnight for now :) I am off to enjoy a relaxing bath and delve into my current book obsession at the moment.. Dear John!
Lots of love Sophie xoxo
