1. What’s your favorite drug store makeup product and your favorite higher-end product?
Higher-end: NARS eyeshadows. I’ve been collecting seasonal colors since high school but my mainstay is the Earth Angel color duo.
2. Is there one type of product that is your go-to, can’t live without?
Foundation, specifically DiorSkin foundations. I’ve mentioned before that my skin tone is really uneven (like huge disparity between my cheeks and the rest of my face) and DiorSkin manages to even me out a bit but still look natural. I’ve been thinking of switching to YSL though lately because I have a feeling their foundations would
match my skin tone better. YSL foundations have more golden tones.
3. What’s the best hair product you’ve ever used?
Living Proof Straight Making No Frizz Styling Treatment for Thick to Coarse Hair. Better than any other product for frizz/straightening I’ve ever had, and I’ve been through most of Sephora’s stock over the past 10 years. As with any product, I don’t mind paying for it as long as it actually works.
4. Fess up, what’s the worst beauty look you’ve tried to rock and look back at now with a little shame or apprehension that you actually did that?
Blue glitter gel eyeshadow. No, seriously. It was the 90s, okay? And I was eleven… don’t worry, I graduated to neutral shimmers at twelve.
5. When it comes to beauty products, we all use the same basic products. What do you use that helps show off your personal flare and personality?
Also, my hair gets more curl when it’s longer so I often let it go curly then. Right now it’s too short and doesn’t have much of a curl so I’m hoping to grow it longer this year, I miss the curls!

I assure you that it was actually tragic. Blue lipstick sounds much cooler!

I love Sephora too! But because it’s so hard to walk out of there without spending money, I try to only go there when I absolutely need to replenish something. Good quality make-up can really get expensive!
I rarely wear eye shadow these days either. But I should take the time to wear it when I dress up.

I know, I’ve been good about that lately. Not picking up a basket also helps, then I can only carry as much as I can fit in my hands and test products at the same time :) I’m definitely going to try using my eyeshadows more, recently they’ve been collecting a lot of dust!
