TAG: The Q's

Hello to LittleMissBeautyJunkie (so glad i found your blog!)! Thanks so much for tagging me on this one! Twas lots of fun!

WHERE ARE YOU FROM? The good old capital of Scotland, Edinburgh.

WHY DID YOU START BLOGGING? Well, It all started when i decided i needed to try mineral make up. I searched online and found some that i wanted to try out. While waiting for it to arrive i started googling reviews for the brand and came across MakeUpAlley (which was pretty revolutionary in my book) and then Nessasary Make Up. Nessa is a beautiful American who writes what is still my favourite blog! After that i became a bit of a lurking on beauty blogs...until i decided that i wanted to get in on the fun.

WHATS THE MAIN AIM OF YOUR BLOG? At first the main reason was to keep me occupied and productive but as i got to know the other bloggers and started making 'friends' (can you be friends if you've never actually met??) it became more of a way to communicate with people of similar interests.

WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE BEAUTY BLOG?There are sooo many blogs that i LOVE! Like i said, Nessa at http://www.nessasarymakeup.blogspot.com/ has to be on the list, as do Marie of http://www.marie-loves.blogspot.com/, Saskia of http://www.saskiathesalsafairy.blogspot.com/, Laura of http://www.romanticdreaming.blogspot.com/ and Jen of http://www.mizzworthy.blogspot.com/ but there are many more i could easily have included!

DO YOU MAKE YOUTUBE VIDEOS? Cant say i do.

WHY? I'm not sure really, i LOVE watching other peoples video's but its just not something that Ive gotten round to doing...having said that, i may start at some point.

WHO'S YOUR FAVOURITE YOUTUBER? WhatStyleIsToNickel, Pixiwoo and controversially, GeorgieMakeup purely for fun!

HAVE YOU PARTICIPATED IN A MAKE UP SWAP? Yeah! I took part in Rebecca's Secret Summer Swap and i believe my parcel should be arriving this week! Exciting!

ARE YOU MORE ABOUT SKIN/HAIR/MAKEUP/NAILS? At the moment makeup is my thang but I'm definitely getting more and more into the other 3!

WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE BRAND? I know this is predictable but it has to be MAC and Illamasqua. both are unbeatable in quality and range.

WHATS YOUR MAKEUP MUST HAVE? It has to be Lily Lolo's mineral foundation. Worked wonders on my skin!

WHATS YOUR HAIR MUST HAVE? For a long long time now its been Tresemme Heat defence spray but i have a feeling this may change soon due to my current enlightening of hair products!

CURRENT BEAUTY OBSESSION? It just has to be Lipsticks. I was a bit of a slow starter on this one, literally NEVER wearing lipstick until about a year ago (!) and now i just cant stop! More specifically my obsession can be narrowed down to purple lips - Up The Amp is my new favourite and makes me wish I had bought Lavender Whip. Ah hindsight.

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH HOW YOU LOOK? Well i certainly don't think that I'm either beautiful or ugly but I'm pretty happy that i can (for the most part) make the best out of what i have.

IF YOU'VE HAD ANY OF THESE IN THE LAST YEAR CHANGE THE FONT COLOUR.
a haircut,
professional hair colour,
a facial,
professional waxing,
eyebrow threading,
a massage,
a manicure,
a pedicure,
gel/acrylic nails,
professional make up application,
botox injections,
collagen injections,
laser hair removal,
laser skin rejuvination.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MORE OF IN BEAUTY BLOGS? To be honest i think beauty bloggers are doing a pretty spiffy job! I would love to see more Scottish bloggers though! I think i know of only 4 of us!

HOW BIG IS YOUR BEAUTY COLLECTION? Its not too massive but it is growing. :0)

DO YOU OWN ANY MAC PRO PALETTES? Yup, i have just one 15 pan palette for now. Gimme time goddammit!

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SENT FREE PRODUCTS AND IF SO, WHERE FROM?Yeah! I recently got a whole bunch of Revlon lashes (review to come REALLY soon!) and I'm waiting on a delivery of some Body Shop stuff! How exciting indeed!

WHAT COMPANY WOULD YOU LOVE TO RECEIVE PRODUCTS FROM? Literally anything! I love the idea of finding a diamond from something i would never have tried otherwise!

HAVE YOU EVER WON A BEAUTY CONTEST AND IF SO, WHO HOSTED IT? Alas, the answer is no.

WHATS YOUR NEXT PLANNED BEAUTY PURCHASE? BadGal Lash free with Glamour Magazine. I'm away to the shop to pick it up after i finish this post. Yeehah!
