From shower to "out the door," how long I take to get ready on an average day:
1 hr at THE MOST. I can never wake up early enough to do a full face in the morning before going to work. As long as I have my sunscreen on, my "all in one" color stick and lipgloss and my long hair up in a bun, I'm good to go.

Face painting/art using makeup.

Lipgloss or chapstick.

Putting in blonde streaks in my hair which ended up in blocks of color and literally destroyed my hair.

bikini waxing...but you do get used to it eventually.
The most $$ I've ever shelled out for a beauty product:
Over $100 on M.A.C. eye shadows and pigments all in one day.
About Me:
I work at a hospital as a radiology technician. I'm 23 yrs. old and an avid runner and occasional surfer. My "must have" item is sunscreen/sunblock because skin protection is the most important to me. I don't wear a whole lot of makeup, especially during the day but I love to collect eyeshadows, pigments, lip glosses and lipstains. I'm presently trying to research brands that don't test on animals. I realize this can be difficult and a daunting task because even if the final product says "cruelty free", it doesn't mean that each individual ingredient that went into making the product wasn't tested on animals. I just have to remember that most of these items I can live without.
