Do you enjoy applying makeup to others? Share!
It can be fun, but it has to be the right setting/tone - playing around is fun, but doing someone's makeup for a special event or occasion can be stressful!

What beauty product would you invent if you could? No matter how far-fetched!
A cheap, effective skincare solution that worked for everyone! Trying to find the right products can be so difficult, and what works for your best friend may not work for you and vice versa, so it's mostly trial and error,...
What beauty advice would you give your younger self? Share!
Ditch the bangs, they were not helping the acne situation! Start a skincare regimen earlier (particularly SPF!!!!). Wear sunglasses sooner. Talk to primary care doctor sooner about skincare concerns.

What are your biggest hair concerns? How do you manage them?
Fly-aways, thickness, and dry scalp. For fly-aways, I usually use a mascara wand and a little soft gel to keep them in place. Thickness I just live with, and then dry scalp, I find Moroccanoil is handy for that.

Have you ever had makeup stain something? (Clothing, carpeting, countertops, etc.) Were you able to get it out?

What has been the most underrated beauty product you've tried? Share!
I think a good brow gel gets missed often (I like Marc Jacobs or MAC's the most), because it's such a basic/staple product, and it can seem odd to spend that kind of money on what amounts to clear hair gel. The other product I...
What has been the most overrated beauty product you've tried? Share!
Dior eyeshadow, in general, leaves something to be desired for me. Don't get me wrong--some of their quads and palettes over the years are amazing, total go-to palettes that work, but they have some huge flops and issues.

What do you look for in a new foundation? What would be your perfect formula?
I like light-medium coverage that's buildable to medium, so I can easily get lighter coverage on a day-to-day basis but can layer for more coverage as-needed. The finish should be natural--a little dewiness that makes skin...
