I don’t know if this has been asked but maybe you can ask “What is your favorite make up setting spray?”
Errr… What upcoming releases you’ve been dying to get your hands on? 😀

3. If you could have a make up brand, what would it be called?
4. What animal should Mac base their next collection around?

I don’t know if you’ve already done this, since I’m somewhat of a new follower, but I was wondering what most girls do when it comes to gloss/lipstick and significant others. I’ve been on a big lipstick kick lately, but I can’t bear to kiss my boyfriend with anything on! Just wondering how others deal with this ^_^
I would love if you did a what’s your favorite concealer question! thanks so much! i love how interactive this blog is!
What’s the best basecoat for nails?
Can we find out if they have a favorite bronzer and blush and what their foundation color is (eg. NC 45) so I could get some recommendations for my friends and I?
Also, what the best powder or cream to powder foundations are?
What is one thing that totally puts you off a beauty product? (eg, chemical smell, flavour, consistency, etc)
What beauty item you own has the prettiest/most glamourous packaging?
What are your top 3 favourite blushes? (Sugarbomb, anyone? 😉

Are you ever at a loss to explain or do you try to justify your beauty addiction to anyone?
Have you ever been ridiculed or put down for having too much makeup? If so, how did you deal with it?
If you could go out tomorrow and get any one lipstick for free, what would you choose?
What discontinued beauty product would you most like to see brought back?
ever done a “what’s your favorite/the best foundation” kind of question? i’d be curious to hear what everyone else uses or finds to be their favorite.
do you buy makeup just because its limitid edition?

-what makeup absolutely doesn’t make you break out (based on your experience with the products)?
-how did you get rid of skin problems of all kinds – redness, acne, scars etc. – what products, vitamins, other special methods did/still do you use?
-what makeup products, skin care do you buy from the pharmacy? what brands/products do you consider to be good?
hope this is helpful for you 🙂
by the way…the to the beach MAC summer collection is in stores since Monday in Austria
1. I’d be interested to know if anyone has tried any of those lash/brow growing serums and if they actually work?
2. If it hasn’t been asked already, best skin redness reducing products.
3. Favorite false lashes.
That’s it for now. I’ll think of more though.
I use the perscriptioin brand generic version of Latisse, and YES it totally works 100%!!! My lashes are almost twice as long and thick as they were before starting to take it.
BUT I am also a perfect candidate for taking it…its best suited for women (or men I guess) with light eyes and fair skin. People with dark eyes and skin, can have some weird color pigmentation issues if they use it, so its not recommended for anyone with brown eyes.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ve been using a product called rapidlash from cvs on my brows and lashes for 2 months now and it’s really helping my brows but no improvement on my lashes. I’m fair skinned (NW20) with blue eyes and was wanting some feedback from people who tried the Rx one to see if it’s worth the extra expense. Mine are long enough I just need them to start multiplying like bunnies 🙂

How about poll if we think the UPS and FED EX guys might be sick of coming to our doors! I am glad my UPS guy is nice!
How about if anyone has ever stolen or used make up without permission.
I recently had $200 in packages stolen, we had given our friend keys to our house to bring in packages and he came on the wrong day 🙁
luckily they were all replaced.
I have never had anyone steal or use my make up though, but my sister had roommates who did >:[
My FedEx guy totally RUNS AWAY. I tried to catch him over the holidays to give him a little thank you card, but even when I was RIGHT by the door, he was gone! Like lightning!!
Sorry to hear about the stolen packages 🙁
Thanks Christine! I know, I feel like I need to do something nice too! I want to sign for everything now so I feel even worse about ordering so frequently. I used to have him leave the packages at the door and I was shocked along with him that it happened.
Today our puppy was barking at him and he said “Aw man I thought he was getting used to me!”
Happy to say, I received my fave rollerball perfume today! Your rollerball perfume poll inspired me to hunt down and hoard more hard to find Stila Creme Bouquet, I got it for $7.50 a piece on Beautycrunch.com, so thank you for that poll!!!

Hm… maybe something like, “How often do you go see a dermatologist or esthetician?” Or something about along the skincare line
What do you do with all the free makeup that you get sent? It seems like you get a ridiculous amount… entire collections of products that you probably only use once, or twice. You should include them in giveaways for your readers (unless you already do haha)
I donate to battered women’s shelters if they take tested or lightly used products. It would be unethical and inappropriate to giveaway used products in contests/giveaways, IMO.
