My brand obsessions:
For makeup, anything that's SUPER high quality, regardless of brand. Love minerals by Jane Iredale and Bare Escentuals. Best thing about them is the high pigment levels. The colors come out beautifully!!
I'd bawl my eyes out if this product was discontinued:
Jane Iredale eye shadow in "Dawn". Also, Jane's PurePressed powder foundation. Oh, and Cover Girl Lash Exact mascara. And Clean & Clear blotting sheets. Love em all!
Save your money! Here are 5 products I bought and regretted:
Creme De La Mer (the original one). What a waste of money - it's a tiny pot of very expensive greasy lotion. Biore facial lotion - just bad overall. Any cosmetics that are under $5, because they never work. Same goes for inexpensive brushes, they're awful. I'm sure there are more, but this is all that comes to mind.
From shower to "out the door," how long I take to get ready on an average day:
An hour, maybe an hour and a half. I have long, thick hair that I wash every day, so between the washing, conditioning, drying and styling, that's a half hour alone! Also, I have a weakness for trying on multiple outfits before deciding on the perfect o
Beauty trend I'd really, really like to learn or try:
I try them all! :) Right now, I want those thick bangs that you brush off to the side of your forehead, but am not brave enough to get them.
What makeup thingy is always in my purse:
Burt's Bees Original lip balm and blotting papers
Ah, memories... My biggest junior high beauty mistake:
A very tight, very curly perm. What a disaster.
Most cringe-worthy beauty treatment I've ever endured:
"extractions" during a facial (EW - what a shame that they work...) and bikini waxes. Ow.
The most $$ I've ever shelled out for a beauty product:
Probably $110 for Creme de La Mer, but I'd spend it happily if it worked the way they said it did! Too bad it was awful.
About Me:
I LOVE beauty products. In my next life, I will be a beauty editor at a magazine like Allure, and will be euphoric from all of the products I get to sample and critique every day!!!
