Not quite a tag... part II

I saw this on the gorgeous Em's blog and decided to do it :)

What's your favourite make up look?
I have a soft spot for smokey eyes and nude lips, but my absolute favourite make up look has got to be the classic winged cat-eye eyeliner, with a vibrant red or pink lip. Dita Von Teese does this perfectly every time. I have to keep practising my winged liner because I suck at the minute!




Do you have a beauty vice?
Pink lipsticks/lipgloss. It is my go-to colour and have a ton. Yes, they look the same but I can assure you, they're not.

What part of your body do you love?
Probably my eyes or my hair. Both get most compliments and both are what I play up most often.

Who is your beauty icon?
I have many, but my ultimate is the beautiful Mrs Cheryl Cole. She's really transformed herself from the early Popstars days. I also think Dita Von Teese has classic beauty that looks good regardless.



































What beauty product makes you feel instantly sexy?
Mascara. I have fair eyelashes and feel really self conscious if I'm not wearing mascara. In my opinion, you don't need much else if you have long fluttery eyelashes.

How do you look after your skin?
I have been having skin troubles this week so now is maybe not the best time to be answering this lol... but I cleanse and moisturise twice a day, and I try not to sleep with make up on. Oh, and I wear an SPF everyday.

What is your signature scent?
Calvin Klein's Euphoria. It makes me feel happy everytime I smell it. Recently though it's been Chanel Chance.

What are your haircare secrets?
I have naturally thick and wavy/curly hair. When it comes to taming it, Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum is the dog's wotsits. It's a bit pricey at £12 a bottle, but it lasts for ages and makes my hair silky smooth and so glossy.

How do you pamper yourself?
I'm not a big believer of having expensive treatments at a spa or salon to feel pampered. I've never had a massage or facial, and hate people touching my feet so wouldn't dream of getting a manicure. I love simple things, like taking candlelit bubble baths and 15 minutes of peace with a face mask on. That's pure bliss to me.

What is your beauty pet peeve?
I have many, lots of which I've been guilty of. Too dark foundation, too light foundation, over-contouring, dark lip liner/light lipstick combos, liner outside of the natural lip line, black goop in the tearduct, drawn on eyebrows, fake tan overload, chipped nail polish, under-eye concealer that's too light... I could go on. Basically, if you look like this, then you're doing it wrong:


What would your desert island must haves be?
Waterproof mascara, Diet Coke, and my fiance. I'd be happy with just those :)

Finally, do you have a beauty philosophy?
Ignore make up rules. I never stick to certain colours for certain seasons, or avoid some coloured eyeshadows because my eyes are blue. Mix it up a little bit and definitely don't be afraid to experiment!



I'm leaving this as an open tag, so if you want to do it, please do! x
