Five Beauty Things I Suck At

I hope you all are enjoying the short work week! I am here today to share five beauty things that I suck at. I have seen this tag on YouTube quite some time ago and after thinking about it myself, it was not hard to come up with five things. I love beauty products and doing my makeup...but there are just some things that I will never enjoy doing or even be good at doing.

1. Applying false lashes| False lashes are not my forte...I absolutely love the look of them on others but maybe my eyes are too sensitive or something because I am never comfortable in them. Yes, I have watched every "how to apply false lashes" on YouTube and I still have troubles. If they aren't applied right there is no point in wearing them because they can look so bad.

2. Winged eyeliner| I typically do a very thin line of eyeliner because I don't like anything too dramatic, but when I wan't to go out I would love to rock a winged eye. When I start, the line is too thin and with each swipe I make it thicker and thicker until I freak out and have to re-do my entire eye look. I never am satisfied because they never match.

3. Plucking my eyebrows| This is probably my least favorite thing ever. I'm not good at it whatsoever, and it hurts. I usually just hit up a Benefit Brow Bar twice a year and then maintain them when needed, but I really suck at it.

4. Reapplying lip product| Why is it that I can apply lip product and look so put together, but after coffee or eating the product disappears, I can never remember to apply. I always forget to bring said lip product in my bag, and then I just gravitate to chapstick especially in the winter.

5. Using Primer| I don't know if I just feel it is unnecessary for my skin/eyes or what but I ALWAYS forget primer. I buy it, intend on using it, and never do. I have good intentions but it just rarely happens. Adding a new step into my beauty routine always takes me some time to remember to actually do it.




What are some beauty things you suck at doing or just don't like doing in general?

Sweater Weather Tag!

This is the Sweater Weather TAG!!

 

 

1. Favorite candle scent?

I just recently purchased my favorite "winter candy apple" and "Autumn" from Bath and Body Works and I love those!

2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?

All of the above.

3. What's the best fall memory you have?

Anything I do with my family, pumpkin carving or Black Friday shopping!

4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner?

I am kind of scared to try a dark lip because my skin is so light, so I would have to say winged eyeliner.

5. Best fragrance for fall?

Taylor Swift - Wonderstruck

6. Favorite Thanksgiving food?

Potato salad, or pumpkin pie!

7. What is autumn weather like where you live?

In California, it's pretty nice not usually too unbearably cold.

8. Most worn sweater?

I just bought some that I think will be my new most worn sweaters this fall and winter.

9. Must-have nail polish this fall?

I love nudes, reds, and really dark almost black polishes.

10. Football games or jumping in leaf piles?

Well, I love stepping on really crunchy leaves; does that count??

11. Skinny jeans or leggings?

Skinny jeans.

12. Combat boots or Uggs?

Neither to be honest.

13. Is pumpkin spice worth the hype?

I really loved pumpkin spice but I am over it now. I literally don't want anything that flavor now.

14. Favorite fall TV show?

I have been watching Survivor, American Horror Story, and re-runs of Friends!

15. What song really gets you into the fall spirit?

 Taylor Swift's Red album, probably because it came out last fall!

I am ready for Christmas music though! I love me some Michael Buble!

 

16. Hats or Scarves?

Scarves are my all time favorite accessory ever.

Would You Rather?

Hi Everyone!! I saw this tag on a few other beauty blogs and thought it would be really fun to do!!

Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?

Even though I cannot go a day without mascara I would have to say I would rather lose all of my mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses! I would just have to go out and buy more! ;)

Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?

This one is tough for me because I could not imagine not having hair...however, I have super thick hair and I really think my hair would be soo damaged without a hair cut. I will go with chop off all of my hair...luckily my hair grows really fast!

Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?

I know this is going to sound crazy, but I really do not wear much blush! I am all about the bronzer and I have naturally rosy cheeks so I really don't like to add to them. If I had to choose though I would go with a pink cheek!

If you had $1000 to spend, Would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
New Clothes, hands down.

 

Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
 

Oh boy..... I cannot imagine either being really flattering. I guess I would choose using the eyeliner as a lipstick, they have pink eyeliners anyway!

Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?
  Definitely Sephora! They have everything, MAC can get super expensive. 

Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?
 

I would say one lip color, I love doing my eye makeup and I really don't mind sticking with a favorite lip color! 

Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
I really had to think about this question! It gets as high as 106+ degrees here in summer and I could not imagine wearing winter clothes! I could survive with summer clothes in winter since I still wear cardigans and scarfs in the summer (I work in an air conditioned building).

                          Would you rather dark nails or bright nails all year round?

 I love my bright nails and paint them at least two times a week, bright nails for sure!

Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?

Give up my favorite lip product! I can't live without my Covergirl mascaras!

Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a pony tail or a messy bun?

I would say a pony tail, I feel like I could really make a pony tail look cute and sleek. 

Would your rather never being able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
 

Never use lipgloss! I would not give up my nail polish collection.

 

Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all? or sharpie them in everyday?

Oddly enough I have seen many girls with both "eyebrow looks" and it is not cute. I suppose I would have to sharpie them in haha!

 Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?

This question is so tough, I love painting my nails but I guess I would have to live without it because I like wearing makeup even more.

I tag everyone to do this and let me know when you do so I can check out your answers!!!
