Thank you + Survey!

I want to say a big thank you to all my followers for taking an interest in my bloggy blog! I can't believe I've reached over 30 followers,. I am amazed at the sense of community here. Writing about makeup and skincare is such a great outlet for me as my day job is anything but girly. So as a way for me to know you guys better, please fill out this wee survey and post in the comments below.
  1. Favorite makeup line?
  2. Your favorite weekend pampering session? 
  3. What are the three makeup items you can't live without?
  4. What are three items you're lusting over right now? They can be makeup, skincare, or nails.
  5. What kinds of blog posts do you love the most and why (haul, product review, DIY, tag, etc.)?
  6. If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why?

Here are my answers:

Favorite makeup line? MAC
Favorite weekend pampering session? 
Threading eyebrows, DIY mask (aspirin or besan/yogurt/honey), manicure, and a makeup haul. ;)
What are the three makeup items you can't live without?
MAC Studio Fix Powder Foundation, Maybelline Define-A-Lash, Merle Norman Super Lube (lip balm)
    What are three items you're lusting over right now? They can be makeup, skincare, or nails.
    Revlon Colorstay Foundation, Dermatologica Daily Microfoliant, OPI Barefoot in Barcelona
      What kinds of blog posts do you love the most and why (haul, product review, DIY, tag, etc.)?
      DIY skincare cuz they're so effective, cheap, and fun, and all-natural.
      If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why?
      I got started by wanting to learn about how to do my own makeup for my wedding this last summer. So I watched hundreds of YouTube videos and even read books by professionals in the industry about makeup and skincare. A week before my wedding, I was totally broken out, and Michelle Phan's aspirin mask literally rescued me! So I decided to pass on the good and share my tips and tricks on skincare and makuep. I have to say that the blogging community has taught me so much. In the last 3 months, I have had the best skin and makeup of my life. :)

      Have a lovely week and hope to see your comments soon!

      5. What kinds of blog posts do you love the most and why (haul, product review, DIY, tag, etc.)?
      I love product reviews, i know all products work differently for everyone but if you have a majority of people reviewing the same product and agreeing with the results then it convinces me to purchase it.
      6. If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why?
      I first got started after watching my favorite gurus on youtube, as well as when it came to buying something i wanted to know about the product, after reading the blogs, it made me want to start one myself and do reviews for things that some people havent gotten the chance to try. =]

      5. What kinds of blog posts do you love the most and why (haul, product review, DIY, tag, etc.)? Any as long as they are an interesting read. A sense of humour in them is always good.

      6. If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why? Did my first blog in July but didn't fully started until August. Wanted to be able to comment on the blogs I was reading and thought why not join in. Some one might find my rambles interesting! Tee hee

      4. What are three items you're lusting over right now? They can be makeup, skincare, or nails.
      Ponds Age Miracle Night Cream, Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner & Sally Hanson White Nail pencil

      5. What kinds of blog posts do you love the most and why (haul, product review, DIY, tag, etc.)?
      Reviews. Saves me time & money :D

      6. If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why?
      I started writing in Nov last year simply because I could find tons of reviews for make up & skin care products for foreign prdts but nothing for products available in India. So as a consumer, there was no forum where I could read other users' experiences and also no way to stop these companies from plamming off useless, ineffective, shoddy products on us, or read about prodts that are absolute gems. Basically in this age of economy, it made sense to start a forum where people can share their views so all of us get the best for our skin without wasting money.

      Product reviews coz I always read them before I buy, DIY- u know why :)
      If you have your own blog, when did you get started, and why?
      I started in August this year coz I'm a beauty addict and my blog is an outlet where I can be myself and meet other beauty bloggers who would definitely understand why I need more than one foundation, blush, eyelash curler. And also because I want to start my own line someday :) Hopefully soon!!!
