What's your current everyday makeup routine?

What's your current everyday makeup routine?

I don’t really have one, since I wear products I’m testing all the time, so it varies a lot from day to day (or eye to eye!). But if I did have one, it would probably be: filled in brows, teal eyeliner, coral blush, rosy-brown or peach-brown lip, medium coverage foundation. If I had the time...

Would you choose more travel-sized products if more were available? Or do you prefer full-sized?

Would you choose more travel-sized products if more were available? Or do you prefer full-sized?

For cosmetics, I would love to see smaller sizes in some types of products, but they have to be large enough to work for the intended purpose (e.g. a blush still has to be big enough to get a good-sized brush in it). I think that, for example, highlighters and bronzers come in huge pans but are...

What age should people be able to wear makeup?

Rant & Rave: Tom Ford Beauty

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Tom Ford Beauty

In the last year or so, I have encountered more misses than in the past, and I’d like to see that corrected, as before, the majority of products were pretty good or at least “I can see why people would want this” kind of products. I think the brand could expand their permanent offerings more often (like their blush range hasn’t grown since launch, I don’t think!) – but they don’t release tons of stuff each year either, so maybe that’s why.
