Hvilke sminke / skjønnhetsprodukter kan du ikke leve uten?

Når begynte du å komme inn i sminke?
Sann historie. As a small child (think five) I used a green Crayola Magic Marker to “apply shadow” to my eyelids. Needless to say my mother was not amused. though I’ve loved makeup as long as I can remember, I didn’t fall head over heels in love with products until I studied in Paris. Painfully dangerous for my meager student’s budget.
Hva er ditt beste skjønnhetstidsbesparende triks?
Cut out the “paradox of choice” and keep a small selection of items at arm’s length for quick application. Being that I’m a beauty blogger I have a relatively large collection, but I only store the absolute essentials on the surface of my vanity. If I give myself too many options while I apply my makeup before work I’m easily distracted!
Hva er ditt favoritt skjønnhetsverktøy?
It may sound anticlimactic, but an eyebrow spoolie is everything. I have thick brows that I absolutely adore, but all too often they need to be tamed.

Hva er det beste skjønnhetsrådene du noensinne har mottatt?
As a pre-teen my grandmother told me never to pluck my eyebrows. Days later I read an interview of a model in a popular teen magazine who said her grandmother had given her the same advice. The corroboration was too much to ignore, so I don’t touch them! (Hence my response above.)

Hva er din hudpleie rutine?
I’ve long made skin a priority so my skin care routine is quite lengthy. In the morning I apply a day cream (my current favorite is Dr. Hauschka rose Day Cream) along with an SPF no matter the weather. At night I use the following products to remove my makeup and cleanse; Bioderma Sensibio H20, Pai Camelia & rose gentle Hydrating Cleanser, Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré, Thayers rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner (nightly) or Clarins bright plus HP gentle Renewing Brightening peel (once a week). I’m sorry to say that this is all augmented by yet more serums, eye creams and moisturizing balms depending on the season.
Hva er det rareste tingen du har prøvd i navnet på skjønnhet?
I tested Missha’s super Aqua Cell Renew Snail Hydro-Gel Mask once upon a time. The mask was great, but I couldn’t get over the fact that I had snail excretions all over my mug. (Shudders involuntarily.)
Har du et varemerkeutseende (hår / styling / sminke)?
ANNONSE
Despite my constant desire to experiment with new products and looks, my signature for the last ten years has been barely there base makeup, a flicked black cat-eye and blush. I let my hair do its own thing (which is usually big and wavy), but I often pull it back into a chignon when I can’t stand it in my face.
Er det noen skjønnhetsbeslutninger du har gjort at du ser tilbake på og spør deg selv, “Hvorfor?!”
As a relatively straight laced 16-year-old girl with long hair and blonde highlights I impulsively decided to cut it all off, dye it Dr. Pepper red and suddenly go for the emo look. It didn’t look horrible, if I do say so myself, but it SO wasn’t me. The instant I got home I vowed to grow out my hair (that had been down to my lower back only hours before) and cried for hours about my impulsive decision.
Hvor er dine favorittsteder å handle?
Will you be mad at me if I say Paris? I did live there after all, so it seems fair. When I’m home Nordstrom is my favorite beauty destination, and I visit Anthropologie weekly … though that may have something to do with the fact that it’s right across the street from my office!
