Mitä meikki / kauneus tuotteita ei voi elää ilman?

I will not go out the door without blush, mascara, and under-eye concealer. I know my weaknesses sans-makeup, and that trifecta of makeup products does the trick. I also need a good mud mask to help clogged pores.

Milloin aloitit meikkiä?

Makeup became a big part of my life in middle school. My mom, who modeled as a young woman, knew that I’d spark an interest in makeup sooner than later, so she taught me how to use makeup to enhance features in a subtle way and not go overboard (hello, raccoon eyes and dark lipstick on a 14-year-old… Not attractive!)

What’s your best appeal time-saving trick?

Using an eyelash primer is the most extraordinary and failsafe appeal time-saving trick I have. Doing so allows me to apply one coat of primer and one to two coats of mascara, achieving maximum length and volume sans eyelash curler. using primer also prevents clumping, considering that you won’t need as lots of coats of mascara to achieve eyelash definition.

What’s your favorite appeal tool?

I can’t do without my 1.5″ hot tools gold curling iron (model 1102). I’ve tried different diameters of curling irons, and the 1.5″ always gives me the soft, bouncy and put-together hair look that I want to achieve.

What’s the best appeal recommendations you ever received?

My mommy is a wealth of appeal tips. She helped me understand that success in makeup depends on your ability to objectively understand your facial strengths and weaknesses, and enhance where needed.


Mikä on ihonhoito rutiini?

My skincare routine is nearly embarrassingly basic and no-fuss. In the shower, I wash my face with Ivory bar soap if needed, followed by an exfoliator like the (generic version of the) St. Ives Blemish & Blackhead control Apricot Scrub or the yes To Blueberries Softening Facial Exfoliator if I sense a breakout coming. Then, I will swipe my clean, dry face with an astringent-soaked cotton ball (I typically use a generic Sea breeze Astringent). From there, I use the yes to Grapefruit Dark spot Correcting Serum for hyperpigmentation issues and then the yes to Blueberries daily Repairing moisturizer or Aveeno Eczema therapy Moisturizing cream if I need it. If it’s the end of the day, I will use a yes To cleansing facial towelette and then complete my routine starting at astringent as pointed out above.

Mikä on outo asia, jonka olet yrittänyt kauneuden nimessä?

My odd appeal thing probably has to make with going vegan and gluten complimentary for about 3 months in 2011. My skin ended up looking great as a result of this lifestyle change, and I felt a lot more energized. but when all’s said and done, that type of extreme diet isn’t sustainable for me.

Onko sinulla tavaramerkki (hiukset / muotoilu / meikki)?

My trademark look is pretty simple: black winged eyeliner, natural-looking mascara, and pink blush; and my hair is styled with a loose curl if I have the time!

Are there any appeal decisions you’ve made that you look back on and ask yourself, “why?!”

MAINOS

Oh, the hair. For a while, I dyed my hair an dreadful golden light brown from a box which just ended up looking like brass city. If I had a chance to dye my hair again in a drastic way, I think I’d choose platinum or silver. but only if a professional did it!

Missä ovat suosikki paikkoja ostoksille?

Target, always and forever! When I lived in the suburbs, I may or may not have gone to Target a lot more than once a week. I’m not a huge fan of their clothes, but I love the rest of the store, especially the home decor. I love to get my trendier clothes from Forever21 and H&M. I’ll go to urban Outfitters for my pseudo-hipster everyday wear, and loft for my I’m-an-adult-lady clothes.

Anything else you want to share?

Being beautiful comes from the core of believing you’re beautiful. confidence always prevails (at healthy levels, of course) and allows you to radiate from the inside.
