How do you apply your eyeshadow primer/base? Brush, fingers, sponge-tip applicator? Does it depend on the consistency? How so?
I always use MAC's 249 to apply the primer, regardless of the consistency -- whether it's thick, thin, or liquid.

How do you deal with your hair while you're applying makeup? Do you tie it back? Headband? (Sorry my short-haired beauties, this might not apply to you, but maybe you had long hair once upon a time and can chime in still!)
I tie it back into a ponytail/bun so I don't get a bunch of strands in my...
Do you use anything to speed up your nail polish dry time? Share!
I use Zoya's quick-drying droplets! It usually helps get them to a manageable level but I avoid doing nails right before bed so I don't get lots of fabric imprints later!

What products are integral to your beauty routine? Share!

Would you use used makeup? Does it matter if it's from a stranger vs. friend?
I've done so in the past, but I haven't in four or five years. The older I get, the more of a germaphobe I become! I'd be okay with using a product from certain friends (e.g. ones I knew who took good care of their...
How did you gain the confidence to wear bold looks in public? Share your tips/experiences!
First, just wear it around the house! Once you start seeing your reflection with stronger/bolder/more colorful makeup on, you'll get more used to seeing yourself that way. You can work your way up to public...
How long does it take for the excitement of a new beauty purchase to wear off? Does it depend on the price of the product?
Probably as long as it takes until the next one! I don't find that price plays a role, though.

Do you plan your makeup in advance when you go on vacation? Or do you just bring enough to give you choices and decide there?
If it's a quick trip, then I try to plan out the one or two looks I plan to do so I don't bring everything! If it's longer, than I try to pack a good variety of color/neutral...
