1. If you could change your name, what would you change it to and why?

I can't imagine ever changing my name! I just find the whole concept so baffling because I'd probably forget I'd changed it to be honest!! But, if I had to change it I'd change it to something that had a different meaning in another language, because I just love the whole idea of the underlying meanings of names!

 

2. What is your staple outfit?

I don't really have one staple outfit, but I do have some wardrobe staples that I swap around to create different looks just to change it up a bit. My favourite staple is my pink suede biker jacket from new look because it just completely transforms the whole outfit!

In short - I really don't know and to be completely honest, as long as I'm till producing content that I love I don't really care about how many views or followers I get. For a while I went through a phase of being completely obsessed with the figures and I fell out of love with blogging, but now I'm back to where I started with just producing what I want and enjoying doing it!

 

My 11 Questions -

1- What's your favourite thing about blogging?

2- If you could work with any brand, who would it be and why?

3- What's one weird fact about you that nobody knows?

4- What do you think about people buying followers and likes within the blogging community?

5- If you were in the Olympics, what sport would it be for?

6- If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?

7- Have you ever regretted starting blogging?

8- What's one thing that annoys you about the blogging community?

9- Bold eyes or bold lips?

10- What's one film you could rewatch again and again?

11- What's your absolute dream job?

Hey everyone, the lovely Trishna from Tips Capsule tagged me to do this. I hope you all enjoy my answers and be sure to go and check out Trishna's. xx

 

1- What is your favourite lip balm/treatment?

 

This is quite a difficult one as I love so many but my absolute favourite is probably The Body Shop Born Lippy in the pink berry.

 

2- What us your favourite eye catching red?

 

I don't really wear a lot of red but my favourite is probably Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter in 096 Macaroon.

 

3- Best luxury and drugstore products?

 

I don't really have any "luxury" products as the most high end product I have is MAC Plumful so probably that. My favourite drugstore product is Kiko Deco Delight in 02. So 2 really different shades. :)

 

4- Favourite MAC lipstick?

 

Plumful definitely :)

 

5- Most disappointing product?

 

Probably Natural Collection high moisture shine in Sweet Pea. I chose this in Boots as I have one in Pink Marshmallow and the 2 swatches looked similar but Sweet Pea was glittery. When I put this on it had no colour and it was just pure glitter - not my cup of tea :( If you don't like really glittery lipsticks I definitely do not recommend this.

 

6- Lip liner - yes or no?

 

No, I find that I don't really need them and I can never find one that matches the lipsticks I would use it for.

 

7- Favourite Gloss?

 

I'm not really a gloss person but I love the Tanya Burr lip glosses especially Cotton Cane from the Christmas Candy Cane set.

 

8- ....... Something Else?

 

I really want to try the Maybelline Colour Drama range - if any of you have tried it let me know what they are like :)

Hey guys, so today I am going to be doing the lip product tag which I saw Estée do. Hope you enjoy.

1- Favourite balm/treatment?

My favourite lip balm is probably the Body Shop Born Lippy in the scent Pink Berry. I haven't mentioned this before and I don't know way because it's amazing. I use this twice a day and it makes lips really soft and stops them from chapping.

2-Best Red?

I don't really have a traditional red lipstick but I do like the Revlon lip butter in 096 macaroon. This is a gorgeous red with a bit of pink so it is perfect all year round. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a moisturizing low maintenance red.

3- Best MAC lipstick?

Definitely Plumful and I did a whole post about it here.

4- Liner Yes or No

I am going to have to say no as I don't use l use lip liner.

5- Favourite Gloss

Definitely the Tanya Burr ones - I have to from the old range in the shades first date and Aurora. The lip glosses aren't sticky and have great colour pay off.

Sorry I didn't do all the questions but I hoped you enjoyed it anyway.
