Does your makeup routine change for family occasions?

Does your makeup routine change for family occasions?

In the beginning, nope! I’d wear WHATEVER and I mean whatever. After awhile, I definitely dialed down and went a bit lighter/more traditional – often I was traveling to a place for a family event (funerals, weddings, etc.). These days, it’s really based on what we’re doing and what I have...

Do you ever keep a product's packaging?

Do you ever keep a product's packaging?

It’s extremely rare that I do to the point where I can’t really think of standout items where I have. Sometimes with press kits or boxes, I’ll keep interesting ones out for a few months, and then swap them out for newer pieces (breaking down and recycling the old ones).

What's your current, go-to special occasion look?

What's your current, go-to special occasion look?

I don’t have a real go-to; I tend to opt for warmer tones, either a jewel-toned eye if I’m feeling colorful or a smokier, gold/bronze kind of vibe and then pairing cheeks/lips from there.

Do gift with purchases entice you to purchase?

I can’t recall an occasion where I made a purchase because of the gift with purchase. I’ll make a purchase where I get a gift card back or something like that, but if it’s a makeup bag or some travel-sized products… I don’t think I have (not intentionally, at least).

What makes a brand or retailer's sale or promotion compelling?

What makes a brand or retailer's sale or promotion compelling?

I feel like anything below 20% off is ho-hum–potentially compelling if I’m in need of something specific but anything less isn’t going to make me think about my wish list or reconsider what I might “want” or “need” at that specific moment. I don’t want to see price jumps, free...
