MAKE UP T A G

Ah yes you read the title right. A make up tag... YAY!! I love doing these types of questions and I was tagged in one of these tags by the beautiful, rad and awesome Kathleen aka pastel-mermaid. You guys definitely need to check her out. Why? Because she has great tips, insights, awesome photos and a great sense of fashion!
Now let's get to these questions shall we?

1. How old were you when you started wearing make up?
   I think I officially started wearing make up in grade 9 because that was when I started using liquid eyeliner, mascara and eyeliner!
   
2. How did you get into make up?
   As sad as this sounds I wanted to impress this guy I liked and I thought he would notice me if I started wearing eyeliner and what not. (HE DIDN'T BTW, that just shows you shouldn't change yourself just to get someone's attention. Be yourself, be you❤)
   
3. What are some of your favourite brands?
   Drug store brands: Maybelline, Rimmel London & E.L.F
   High end: Make Up Forever, MAC & Urban Decay
   
4. What does make up mean to you?
   As Kathleen pointed out on her blog: it is definitely an enhancer. Make up is to enhance your beauty. Oh and I kind of find it very therapeutic because it relaxes me? (If that makes sense...)
   
5. If you could only wear 4 products on your face what would they be?
   -Concealer
   -Face Powder/Settling Powder
   -Mascara
   -Eyebrow Pencil
   (as of now these are the only products I'm using since it's summer and I sweat a lot so my make up goes down with the sweat [I know gross]).
   
6. What is your favourite thing about make up?
   It makes me feel very girly and I like that. Oh and it's very calming? I don't know I'm really weird.
   
7. What do you think of drugstore make up vs. high end make up?
   Just as long as I get my money's worth on either make up then I'm happy. I mean it would be nice if the drugstore would have the quality of the high end but whatever.
   
8. What is one tip you can give to a beginner
   TRY EVERYTHING!!! Just kidding! 
   Read reviews, watch YouTube videos and ask questions to your friends/family/make up professionals when you go shopping.
   OH if you're filling in your eyebrows make the inner eyebrow closer to the nose light so your face doesn't look too harsh(UNLESS YOU'RE GOING FOR THAT THEN FILL IT IN TO THE MAX).
   
9. What is one make up trend you never understood
   Colourful eyeshadows. I'm sorry if you wear colourful eyeshadows but I never really understood them. Yeah they look awesome on people who can pull it off (especially those models who are modelling "unique" dresses) but I never understood it. It's like someone grabbed a marker or paint and smeared it on their eyelids or something. (I guess cause I can never rock those colours?)
   
10. What do you think about the beauty community on YouTube
    To be honest YouTube was one of the reasons why I started to talk about makeup and fashion on this blog. Before I would blog about my life and stuff but watching people give their insight and all that made me want to do it too. So mercibeacoup/arigatou/xie xie/salamat to all them beauty bloggers/YouTubers/whatever y'all are ❤❤❤❤
    

Whew I'm done!
Hope you all enjoyed reading my paragraphs hehe❤

I shall tag...

Hello lovelies!
I was tagged by the beautiful and charming, Karine to do a beauty tag(take a peek at her blog! You'll love it). Oh thanks Karine for tagging me! Let's get to it!

1. Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners and lip product or lose all of your palettes and eye shadows?
   Considering that I don't really wear eye-shadow on a daily basis... Adios palettes/eye-shadows
2. Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
   Chop my hair off! It's becoming quite a hassle lately.
3. If you had $500, would you spend it on clothes or make up?
   Definitely some clothes.
4. Would you rather only use one eye-shadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?
   Well I always wanted scarlet lips.
5. Bright nails or nude nails all year round?
   Nude nails please!
6. Would you rather never be able to use lipgloss or paint your nails again?
   Goodbye lipgloss!
7. Describe your perfect mascara. Have you found one?
   I haven't found one yet but I'm really happy with my Diore Mascara!
8. What's your ideal coverage foundation?
   It has to blend really well, feel light on my face and won't clog my pores or cause breakouts!

   Maybelline for drugstore beauty brand
10. Favourite high-end beauty brand?
    Does Clarisonic count? If not I guess CLINIQUE.

11. Is there any makeup you can't leave the house without wearing?
    Nah, I don't really care. I go out with out any make-up. It's only because I'm lazy and I don't see the reason on dolling myself up to go to the grocery store or to walk my dog(anymore). 
12. What is your most cherished beauty product?
    Eyebrow Pencil!
13. What skin type do you have?

14. Do you always use the same skin routine or do you like switching it up?
    Most of the time yeah. If I don't it's only because I don't feel like adding a face wash or anything. I'm super lazy.
