1. How old were you when you started wearing makeup?

i think, 14! but it wasnt like everyday!

2. How did you get into makeup?

i dont really remember..i first learn about makeup at 14..and after highschool i wore eyeliner religiously, and concealer when puberty hit! then mascara..then i slowly moved into wearing foundation..and for the longest time it was just that. i think i fully got into makeup i think around 2009, and YouTube was one of the main drive! LOL. i have always liked make up..i like to stare at it, the colours and everything..but i didnt wear it much..i had a tiny collection, but i only started experimenting and wearing them come 2009! naturally, my collection has grown since then! :P

i dont really have an all time favorite! but i do love Benefit, the colour range of MAC, recently discovered Inglot..and for more drugstore-y: Revlon & NYX..oohhhh..and Korean and Japanese brands..LOL..

5. What does makeup mean to you?

"to enhance one's natural beauty!" and to hide my pimples! :P i can leave the house without makeup, but i dont cause i just feel more comfortable with make up on! i mean i dont wear fully face makeup everyday! but yea...

6. If you could only wear 4 products on your face what would they be?

in this order! 1. eyeliner; 2. concealer/foundation (if this was 2 years ago, it would be foundation then eyeliner); 3. some sort of base to even out my eyelid colour; 4. mascara

7. What is your favorite thing about makeup?

playing with it! discovering new looks one can make with it! and how it can change/enhance a person's look! but mostly i like playing with it! and staring at it! :)

8. What do you think about drugstore makeup vs high end makeup?

i dont really think there is much difference! i mean, there are some really well-made drugstore products and some that are just plain rubbish! but same can be said for high end! only thing, for high end, theres a wider range with prettier packaging! and i guess it one way, u can expect them to be "safe" cause they have an image to uphold, so u can "trust" it..but, i would not buy nameless unknown brand..well, just dont really trust it u know..

9. What is one tip of advice you can give to a beginner?

erhhh....im somewhat of a beginner too..but i guess its practice! i had a friend tell me that i do my makeup better now than 3 years ago!

10. What is one makeup trend you never understood?

the Japanese Ganguro look! i mean, i know its more of a fashion statement thing, but some do achieve this look with makeup..yea..i just dont get it! O.O not insulting, to each their own, but i just dont get it!
