1. What are your every day essentials? My skin care routine consists of: Kose Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil (Asian brand), Kracie Cleansing Foam (Asian brand), Desert Essence Organic Pomegranate Face Serum, The Body Shop Seaweed Mattifying Daily Moisturizer, and any time I leave the house I try to wear Maybelline Dream Fresh BB cream (for the sun protection). 2. How often do you shower? I wash my hair once every 3 days or so. I take a shower or a bath every day. 3. What kind of hair products do you use? I use Organics Vanilla Silk shampoo and conditioner for my scalp, and then also EverSleek deep conditioner or the Organics Argan Oil deep conditioner for the length of my hair. I use a couple different products for flyaways but I am not in love with any of those. I also occasionally use coconut oil or a hairdress as a leave in treatment that I wash out the next day. 4. What are your favorite makeup brands? E.L.F. is really only brand I consistently buy stuff from. I like my Kat Von D and Urban Decay eyeshadow palettes and I have a lot of different drugstore lipsticks and such that I like as well. 5. Do you wash your face before bed? In the AM? I try to do both, but definitely at night. 6. What's your favorite way to do your hair? Honestly, I really just like to wear it down. No product, no styling, just a good brushing and good to go. 7. Are the any hair styles you wish you could do? There are a lot of braiding techniques I would love to learn to do on myself. 8. Are your nails always manicured? I wish. Unfortunately, my nails break super easily, I use my hands a lot, and having imperfect nail polish drives me up the wall. 9. Which makeup product could you not live without? Really, I am not sure. I think I probably play with eyeshadow the most. 10. Flat irons, aka hair straighteners: Evil or awesome? Not for me. I have never even used one. But all my siblings (including my brothers) have one so they must do something good. 11. Do you go tanning or use self-tanner? Nope, I am a pale one. 12. How often do you poke yourself in the eye with your eyeliner? Not very often. Mascara is another story. 13. Do you like a lot of makeup on, or do you like a natural style better? For day to day, I like natural. But I do like the way I look with make-up on. 14. On average, how long does it take to get your hair and makeup done? If I am doing a full face, which I only do for events and such, it might take me as long as 30 minutes. 15. Favorite nail polish color? I really do not know. I do not wear nail polish enough to have a favorite. 16. Do you ever go out in public without makeup on? Frequently. 17. What's your best beauty tip? I think one of the most useful tips I have learned in that the right brushes really do make a big difference. 18. Do you have acne? If so, how do you treat it? I get a spot a couple times a month. I do not treat them other than basic skin care. 19. Favorite eye shadow color? Probably peach which I have discovered is not easy to find. 20. Do you dye your hair? Yes, I do. For years I dyed it with regular hair dye, but due to some allergic reactions I have developed, I have switched to using henna and indigo. 21. What's the worst (most and least) you would pay for makeup? There is not least, and the most would really depend on the product. For example, over $10 is probably too much for me to spend on a lipstick. But I might spend $50 or more on a good eye shadow palette, but probably not more than maybe $60. 22. Have you ever gotten your makeup professionally done? I have worked with several make-up artists as I am a model. 23. Have you ever had a facial? No, but I am toying with the idea. I would love to see the black heads on my nose and chin gone.

 
1. What are your every day essentials?

Lipbalm, handcream, hand sanitizer, brow powder.

2. How often do you shower?

Everyday.

3. What kind of hair products do you use?

Shampoo from the pharmacy and oils.

4. What are your favorite makeup brands?

Urban Decay, Fyrinnae, i'm not exclusive.

5. Do you wash your face before bed? In the AM?

Yes to both.

6. What's your favorite way to do your hair?

I just blowdry my layers in place, and let it hang loose on my shoulders. i have fine hair, so not tying it is apparently the best thing i can do to my hair.

7. Are the any hair styles you wish you could do?

Yes, Torrin's hairstyles for example (on youtube), i try to grow out my hair but it got so fragile i had to cut several inches :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />8. Are your nails always manicured?

Yes, but usually i just apply a coat of clear polish, i can't wear polish at work so i'm cheating with a protective base.

9. Which makeup product could you not live without?

Mascara. Definitely.

10. Flat irons, aka hair straighteners: Evil or awesome?

Evil. I don't own any.

11. Do you go tanning or use self-tanner?

Tanning beds are bad for your skin, and i don't bother using self tanners, they don't look natural considering i burn under the sun.

12. How often do you poke yourself in the eye with your eyeliner? 

I created a rule for myself : if i'm too tired, or in a rush, i don't use eyeliner. So, never :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I still poke myself sometimes with mascara ^^

13. Do you like a lot of makeup on, or do you like a natural style better?

I'm fine with both, if it's applied well, you won't look like you have a lot on.

14. On average, how long does it take to get your hair and makeup done?

I would say 45 minutes, 30 for makeup, 15 for hair, i'm not used to my new haircut, so blowdrying takes me some time.

15. Favorite nail polish color? 

Gilded from Acquarella.

16. Do you ever go out in public without makeup on? 

Yes, there are days i don't have time or don't want to wear makeup on. Whatever, i'm still the same person underneath.

17. What's your best beauty tip?

Practice !

18. Do you have acne? If so, how do you treat it? 

Very rarely. I use an essential oil and a q-tip to apply it on the spot.

19. Favorite eye shadow color?

Sin from Urban Decay, my go-to colour.

20. Do you dye your hair?

Never, i like my natural color too much.

21. What's the worst (most and least) you would pay for makeup?

About $50 for a foundation, and $30 for a mascara, i can really splurge on these items. I don't really have a minimal pricetag, it depends on the brands, some cheap brands are really good, others, a waste of money.

22. Have you ever gotten your makeup professionally done?

Once, at the release of the Barbie collection from MAC. That's where i learned a makeup base can be useful as mine totally melted, and the makeup artist didn't have much experience in applying makeup on others. Bad experience.

23. Have you ever had a facial?

Yes, once. Lovely time, i wish facials were less expensive so i could have one every once in a while.

Have you ever used a green tea nail strengthener on your nails? My nails used to break easily too, and that's what I used. 

 
I can't imagine taking an hour to get ready in the morning...wow! It takes me ~20 minutes from start to finish...from getting up, going to the bathroom, getting dressed, and doing my hair and makeup! Granted, I shower at night, so that cuts out ~10-15 minutes, but still. Then again, I don't do anything extravagant...my hair almost always goes into a side braid, clipped on the opposite side after putting gel in it and brushing it flat (and braiding it only takes me about a minute, if that, so my hair in total takes no more than ~3 minutes), and the only makeup I do everyday is foundation (well, first moisturizer, then primer, then concealer, then foundation, and finally translucent powder). And I'm pretty quick about it.

Lol, my hair is getting at an awkward length (I'm trying to grow it out from a pixie cut) that is hard to do anything with. It doesn't like to cooperate with me 99% of the time so getting ready takes a bit when I have to blow dry and try to straighten it. On days that I don't shower (since I shower every other day because of my dry skin and dry hair) it takes much less time. When I shower I wait for my hair to get about 50% dry before putting any product in and blow drying it, so that was factored in.

2. How often do you shower?

Sometimes twice a day, sometimes none.  Depends.

4. What are your favorite makeup brands?

My new love is this shadow trio from Lorac.  

5. Do you wash your face before bed? In the AM?

How can you not?

6. What's your favorite way to do your hair?

Every girl born with naturally curly hair eventually learns to just go with it.    

7. Are the any hair styles you wish you could do?

A perfect pert ponytail a la Judy Jetson.  

8. Are your nails always manicured?
At least trimmed down.  Sometimes I let the polish get chippy/cracky, but I actually like how it looks for awhile before it's too unseemly.  I'm very particular about my pedicures, however.

9. Which makeup product could you not live without?

Urban Decay Shadow Primer is the only way to go with dark lids.  I used Korres today with Stila black eyeshadow & by 2:30 it was all over the place. Never again.

Fun to play with, but would never bother to work in my daily routine.

I've experimented with the Jergens self-tanner, but I ultimately feel weird about rubbing dye on my skin.

I am horrible at eyeliner application & am determined to get the hang of it.  I always look like a Manson Kid who got caught in the rain.

Well, both.  I like to use a lot to make it look like I'm not wearing any.  No, I mean it.

14. On average, how long does it take to get your hair and makeup done?

I can wake up at 7:15 & clock in at 7:58 including shower & 10 minute commute.  So real freakin' fast.  But that is work-related dicipline & Red Bull.  However, I do have a full 20-minute version that I prefer when possible.  

15. Favorite nail polish color? 

Black.  All twenty.  All the time.  

16. Do you ever go out in public without makeup on? 

Yes.

No
