Beauty Routine Tag!

(Little friend I made in the garden today)

 

 

This is my first ever beauty tag! Thanks to Asti for tagging me. I love to do this kind of thing, I reminds me of when my friends and I used to send those questionnaire emails to each other (you know the ones?!)

1. Name a beauty routine you rarely do

 

Lipstick! I have always been so jealous of those women that wear it regularly, and I totally wish I could pull off the oxblood colour that is trending right now, but I figure that I have to take slow steps into it. I have been wearing more tinted balms, and would love to try RMS!

 

2. Is washing your makeup brushes something you do regularly? 

 

I only use one (!) makeup brush for my mineral powder, and I wash it at least once every two weeks. I should do it more often!

 

3. How long will you last with chipped nail polish? 

 

I can’t remember the last time I wore nail polish. It makes my own nails weak, I find the smell induces migraines and there aren’t any completely natural polishes. When I used to use polish as soon as I got one little chip it would make me so anxious that but the end of the day I had chipped it all off.

 

4. What is your worst beauty habit?

 

Picking and squeezing my acne. It’s such a terrible habit. If I could have two habits I would say that obsessing over every little imperfection on my face is another one.  I literally stand two centimetres from the mirror, judging myself. That’s something I need to change.

 

5. Name something non-beauty related that you put off all the time.

 

Writing essays for Uni! The units I am learning at the moment are so boring and just don’t compare to the amazing products I could be researching instead. Ha!

 

6. When going out somewhere, do you leave getting ready to the last minute or not? 

 

No, I hate that! I am generally one of those people that gets ready hours too early then stands around waiting.

 

7. Can you commit to spending bans? 

 

Not when I have disposable income. I tend to go from one extreme to the next; wanting every single product in sight, to being content with less. I think the latter is a better position to be in. I am looking for a new facial sunscreen though, any thoughts? I would prefer one with a SPF of 20 or higher.. and natural of course.

 

8. How organized are your make-up/nail polish collection? 

 

Not very. I just have them all in a huge box, with eyeliner/brushes/mascara/etc in containers. I have been looking at other ways of organising my collection, which is exciting.

 

9. What is the longest time you've gone without writing a blog post? 

 

Nearly 5 months, sorry guys! Life just got in the way, as it has a habit of doing. I am now at home a lot more lately due to Uni commitments and sickness, hence the more frequent posts.
