FBFF: Beauty products

I recently joined the FBFF group founded and organized by Katy from Modly Chic. Every friday we get to post questions about a specific subject. But foremost FBFF group is about connecting with other bloggers. I find it a very helpful platform too, especially when you're new at blogging like me. Visit Modly Chic for Katy's answers and from other bloggers. 

March 4: Beauty products 

What's your favorite drug store makeup product 

and your favorite higher-end product? 

I'm always trying new makeup, especially if it's budget.

For a while now I have a favorite: the german brand Catrice.

They just reboothed their look. I can't get enough of their products.
The items are very affordable and have nice pigments for the price.

The most expensive makeup product I own must be my

MAC items, especially my foundation collection.
It took me years to find the right shade for my skin complexion. 

Once I tried MAC, I was sold. 

Is there one type of product that is your go-to, 
can't live without? 

I would say any kind of blush. There are days I don't want to wear makeup
at all. But I reached an age where going completely bare, isn't always
my best option. By putting some blush on the cheek I look instantaneously fresh. 

What's the best hair product you've ever used? 

Maybe it's a bit old school but I'll have to say: hairspray.
Bed Head TIGI has been a favorite now for a couple of years.
It gives me instant hold, a bit of shine and most importantly
it's not sticky. Oh yeah, I love the smell too.

Fess up, what's the worst beauty look you've tried to rock 

and look back at now with a little shame 
or apprehension that you actually did that? 
I don't know what I was thinking when I got a perm
(read: chemically putting curls in your hair) 
with already having natural curls myself. 
I looked like Chaka Khan's crazy cousin.

Ah well, those we're the 80's.
Does that get me off the hook?

When it comes to beauty products, 
we all use the same basic products. 

What do you use that helps show off 
your personal flare and personality? 
Although I love makeup, I have to admit
I'm not a star doing makeup.
I have many fail eye looks, let me tell you that.
But if I want to impact and be sure I will,
I'll go to nail polish. 

I love red polish (and lipsticks) because
this color can go either way.
From classic to sexy in no time.

Have a great weekend :)
