How have your cheek color preferences changed over the last five years?

How have your cheek color preferences changed over the last five years?

I really like satiny finishes more than shimmer/frost/metallic shades. I also tend to prefer more forgiving blushes re: pigmentation – either that I can use a lighter hand to get less coverage or it is buildable.

Beauty Retailers

I love how much variety is available online, and since I don’t mind purchasing blind or online, I also like how a lot of products release online faster than in stores. A lot of retailers could stand to improve their reward/loyalty programs–there are a lot of choices to purchase from, so it makes me less loyal without something extra to keep me purchasing more from one place. I think the only retailer that does a really good job with their reward program is Ulta.

I’ve branched out from just coral, LOL! Now, I’ll wear all finishes and shades. For my go-to shades, they’re more a mix of plum, mauve, rosy brown, and coral.

How have your foundation preferences changed over the last five years?

When I started out, I liked fuller coverage and a very matte finish, and then I moved toward light-to-medium coverage with a natural finish but lately, I’ve been enjoying medium, buildable coverage with more of a matte finish (as my skin has been less dry).

How have your eyeshadow preferences changed over the last five years?

I’m more willing to use a combination of finishes (I always liked shimmery stuff the most!), though I still find I prefer more semi-matte to satin over mattes myself.

Do you wear more or less makeup as you have gotten older?

Do you wear more or less makeup as you have gotten older?

I wear more products when I wear makeup than I did when I was younger (more steps), but I’m more willing to wear none at all now than I was when I was starting out.
