I use a stippling brush (like MAC's 159 or 188) to apply to the skin, and then I blend out with fingertips.

If my nails are really long, then I cut them to the right length and file to get the right shape (squoval for me). Every month or so, I buff my nails and use a cuticle oil all over--assuming I remember. I try to use hand cream every day, but I'm more at once a...

Do you seek out new beauty products when on vacation? Share!

YES! Most definitely. I look for brands or shops that aren't normally accessible to me! Recently, I visited Barney's and bought Surratt Beauty products as I don't live anywhere near one!

Tom Ford Blushes, Guerlain Rouge G Lipsticks, Chikuhodo brushes. Anything extremely expensive always seems like there's no way it can be as good as they think it is, but when they really knock it out of the park, it's awesome.

Dip a pencil eyeliner into a gel eyeliner to apply, rather than use a brush! Otherwise... wear whatever you want, regardless of whether it technically "flatters" you - because if it makes you happy when you wear it, that's what matters!

Not so much, since I'm usually testing, and even on those few occasions that I'm not... I might just reach for something recently reviewed/tested that I liked. My most worn combo over the past few years is likely Guerlain Gems + Bobbi...

I'm more concerned with texture - can't get away with some of the high-shine, metallic-y textures on the skin as much as I used to. Sometimes I don't care, because it's pretty and the only one I'm trying to make happy with makeup is me,...

What lighting do you prefer for applying makeup? Share!

I like really bright lights, and preferably, ones that aren't hot! I love the brightness of the lights I have now, but they're SO hot that I feel like I'll sweat all my makeup off before I'm done sometimes!
