My Makeup Story

 I've seen this tag on YouTube and on LUUUX and I've been wanting to do it for awhile  but just never got around to it. When I couldn't think of something else fun to post today, I decided to do this! Enjoy!

1. How old were you when you started wearing makeup?

I was a lot older than most people are when they start wearing makeup. I was a junior in high school so I was 16 or 17 years old when I started.

2. How did you get into makeup?

I got into makeup because of my best friend in high school. Her makeup always looked so good so I decided to start wearing makeup too. I started with just eyeshadow and eyeliner and then moved onto foundation, blush, and all of the rest. Now I can't stop!

3. What are some of your favorite brands?

Some of my favorite brands are MAC, Urban Decay, Revlon, Clinique and NYX.

4. What does makeup mean to you?

To me, makeup is just fun and its a way to express yourself. The way you do your makeup can say a lot about you and I think that's what I love about it. I also like it because it gives you more self confidence, not only when you have your makeup on, but when you take it off also.

5. If you could only wear 4 products on your face what would they be?

If I could only wear 4 products...I would probably use foundation, blush, mascara and lip gloss.

6. What is your favorite thing about makeup?

My favorite thing about makeup is how creative you can be with it. You can do anything with makeup and change your entire look and really make a statement.

7. What do you think about drugstore makeup vs high end makeup?

I love drugstore makeup and I think there are some drugstore products that are better than high end products, but I do have the high end products that I am loyal too also.


8. What is one tip of advice you can give to a beginner?

My advice is start slowly and learn what types of products work best for you. I wouldn't purchase a lot of expensive makeup if you're just starting out and aren't sure what to do with it because you will end up wasting money. So start slowly, figure out what products and colors are good for you and go from there!

9. What is one makeup trend you never understood?

I guess this isn't really a trend but it just bothers me when people wear way too much makeup. I love wearing makeup but I think there's a fine line between wearing the right amount and wearing too much.

10. What do you think about the beauty community on YouTube?

I really enjoy watching beauty videos on YouTube. I actually had my own YouTube channel for awhile. I've learned a lot from watching tutorials and other types of videos. I think it's a great resource for finding information about products you're interested in and learning how to do new looks.

I tag anyone who reads this to do this also!
