1. Yes, daily. I’m obsessed with makeup tutorials, although the more i watch them, the more i realize that it’s easy to get stuck into a “type” or a “style”. Many of those tutorials don’t vary except for the colors.

2. Nothing

3. I really would like to get the MUFE HD foundation, MAC mineralized skinfinish, and nars blush.

3. No way am I putting three, sorry! 😉 grand duos, sephora morrocco collection, sephora opi collection, smashbox muse palette and laura mercier tinted moisturizer

sprut Avatar

oops I meant to say revlon creme gloss not color stay. The color reminds me of clinique’s liquid lipstick in rasberry sorbet, which I’ve been trying to find a replacement for since they discontinued it.

Do you follow makeup tutorials?: Absolutely! I have probably done hundreds of looks following them now, even Halloween make-up. The Internet, in general, is awesome, but I especially love the fact that it gives me access to educational resources I can’t get anywhere else, not in everyday life. My make-up skills have improved greatly thanks to all the wonderful tutorial-creators on YouTube.
