The lovely Shela over at Confessions of a Beauty Guru recently tagged me in a beauty survey, so I thought I'd share my answers! Feel free to fill out the survey yourself and post it in your own blog or the comment section here!
What's your favourite make up look?
While I adore bold, dramatic looks and designs that create a statement, one of my favorites is a natural look! Simple, clean skin with a pinch of blush or a light dusting of bronzer, soft eyes with a pop of shimmer or color, and natural-looking lips with a dab of gloss. Letting the real you shine through your makeup while playing up your best features can be most flattering!
Do you have a beauty vice you swear by?
I can't think of any beauty "vices!"
What part of your body do you love?
People compliment me on my eyes often, and I try to play them up whenever I can!
Who is your beauty icon?
Marilyn and Audrey!
What are your favorite products?
This is a toughie - there are so many! MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack, L'Oreal HIP liquid lip color, Stila eyeshadow in Kitten, the Olay Regenerist line... the list goes on.
What beauty product makes you feel instantly sexy?
A great lipgloss adds color, shine, and the appearance of fullness, which definitely makes me feel sexier!
How do you look after your skin?
Being an esthetician, I tend to overwork my skin, actually! I cleanse twice daily (well, when I remember), use at least one serum morning and night, and moisturize. SPF is a MUST every day! I also exfoliate a few times a week and other miscellaneous treatments and masks.
What is your signature scent?
Diesel "Fuel for Life," and on the lighter side, Estee Lauder "Pleasures."
What are your hair care secrets?
Here's my favorite tip for the shower! It works well for you ladies who find yourselves getting greasy quickly, have very dry ends, or both. Shampoo your roots well, then rinse through the rest of your hair. Condition the opposite way - start at your ends and work your way up, avoiding the roots and keeping the product light as you go up.
How do you pamper yourself?
Long, relaxing showers, at-home facials, and a nice nap once in a while!
What is your beauty pet peeve?
I have too many! Overdone smoky eyes (I'm talking girls who wear this look exclusively, everywhere), poor makeup application, cakey foundation, dirty looking bronzer...
What would your desert island must haves be?
Shampoo, soap, lip balm, and an endless supply of sunscreen!
What's on your to-buy list as of right now?
The new CoverGirl Blast collection, Sephora Lash Stash, Aromaleigh eyeshadow and foundation, more Urban Decay and MAC... the list goes on.
Finally, do you have a beauty philosophy?
Beauty radiates from within.
Who are you tagging?
Fabuless Beauty, Fresco Phyrra, Happy Face, Happy Wallet... and you, of course!

Hi Eileen!
Thanks for visiting again, and sorry my page isn't very clear about how to e-mail me! You should be able to click on the word "e-mail" in my Contact box to the right. If that doesn't work, though, my e-mail is barebudgetbeauty (at) gmail dot com. :) Thank you!
What's your favourite make up look?
My everyday look tends to be pale eyeshadow with a coordinating but much brighter shade of eyeliner, paired with a light dusting of blush and some pink-tinted lip balm. Simple, but I think its really pretty.
Do you have a beauty vice you swear by?
Not really!
What part of your body do you love?
In terms of my face, I think I have great lips. As for the rest of me? My legs because I'm really tall!
Who is your beauty icon?
This is a tough one. I don't have one icon, but I do think that Kate Hudson always looks gorgeous.
What are your favorite products?
This is ever changing for me, but at the moment Vaseline Rosy Lips, Dior Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm, Smashbox Halo Powder, Clinique Lash Power Mascara, GOSH Eyeliner Pencils, Clinique 3 Step Skincare. I'll stop now...
What beauty product makes you feel instantly sexy?
Lipstick - a mixture of MAC's Hue and Syrup, which makes a gorgeous pale pink I wear with smokey eyes.
How do you look after your skin?
I'm a devotee of Clinique 3 Step - for the most part anyway. I'm forever trying other things, but this is what I come back to.
What is your signature scent?
Philosophy Inner Grace, Benefit Maybe Baby and just lately Dior Addict Shine.
What are your hair care secrets?
Its not a secret, but HEAT PROTECTION. My hair is naturally straight, so I don't use heat on it often but when I do its all about the heat protection sprays and then an intensive repair mask at least once a week!
How do you pamper yourself?
I have my nails and toes done every month and I usually take a bath every day.
What is your beauty pet peeve?
When people don't blend their foundation past their jaw and it leaves a line. I never understand how they don't see it in the mirror?
What would your desert island must haves be?
Sunscreen, lip balm, mascara.
What's on your to-buy list as of right now?
Elemis Tri-Enzyme Gel Mask, a bunch of stuff from Benefit and some goodies from the MAC Holiday collections. I think thats about it for now.
Finally, do you have a beauty philosophy?
I have two...
#1 - Just because its expensive, it doesn't automatically make it good. Try cheaper products because they may just work for you.
#2 - Smile. A geniune smile will light your face up and you'll be amazed at how differently people respond to you when you do!
