SKINCARE -
How many times do you wash your face daily?
Once, at night. For one reason, i dont have time in the mornings to wash it, moisturise, wait for it to sink in, etc. And two, i just dont want too!
What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
Dry and sensitive
What is your current facial wash?
The MaryKay Timewise collection (but not All of them) the 3-in-1 cleanser. and the matching Timewise age-fighting moisturiser.
Do you exfoliate?
Well, i use a mask... if that counts!:)
What brand do you use?
Well, if it does, i use the OLD MaryKay Revitalizing Mask. Formula 2.
The matching MaryKay Timewise age-fighting moisturiser.
Do you have freckles?
No
What moisturizer do you use?
No, not really. Because i will get like a pimple like one or two at a time, and i have this stuff that was mom's (i really dont know what it's called) and it make's them go away within a day!!
Did you ever have to use Pro-activ?
Yes, and it do anything. But that might have to with the fact that i didnt use the toner with the cleanser and moisturiser. but i'm fine with my MaryKay
MAKE-UP
What foundation do you use?
Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer and Moisturizing Foundation mixed.
How about concealer?
Laura Mercier secret concealer for under my eyes and Mac’s concealer (the one in the pot) for any acne.
Do you know your undertone color?
I am a true neutral. I would be considered a cool, with pink undertones as opposed to yellow undertones (or NW in Mac since they do it opposite) but I am really in the middle. I have beige pink undertones.
What do you think of fake eyelashes?
I love them! I would love to have permanent eyelash extensions, and I think it is something I will dabble in once my eyes are completely healed from my LASIK.
Did you know that you are supposed to change your mascara every 3 months?
Of course! You don’t want eye infections! Throw it out and buy a new one.
What brand of mascara do you use?
I love so many! Currently I am using up my MUFE Smokey Lash (my second tube – love it!) and my Givenchy Phenomen’Eyes. Both of these are great!
Sephora or MAC?
That’s a hard one… MAC is great for lip/eye/blush colors but Sephora is better for body and skincare stuff – it’s a tie!
Do you have a MAC Pro-card?
Yes!
What makeup tools do you use in make up application?
Brushes mainly, but also cotton balls, cotton swabs, sponges, and Kleenex.
Do you use make-up base/primer for the eyes?
Always – either Urban Decay Primer Potion or a Mac paint pot. I can always tell if I have forgotten to put it on, I think it is really important! It makes your color last longer and be a bit brighter – and no creasing!
For the face?
Nope, I am currently on the hunt for a good primer, which you can read about here.
What is your favorite eyeshadow (color or shade)?
I have so many favorites. I love Mac all that glitters, satin taupe, mulch, woodwinked, brule, and mutiny. I also love Stila’s Kitten – such a shimmery gorgeous pink.
Do you use pencil or liquid eyeliner?
Pencil 90% of the time, gel the other 10%. Liquid is very rare; I find it hard to use.
How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?
Rarely lol! I am pretty careful Sometimes your hand just slips though!
What do you think of pigment eyeshadows?
I like them, however I reach for them less because they are much messier and harder to work with. There are certain colors I wish came in pan form, like mutiny and tan pigment. I have pressed a few but they are still harder to work with than a regular pan shadow. I have a video on pigment pressing here.
Do you use mineral makeup?
Nope – I’m not a big fan to be quite honest. Bare minerals broke me out horribly, so I have stayed away since then. I also don’t find the coverage that great, I would prefer sticking to my liquid foundation.
What is your favorite lipstick?
I have a few but I adore Mac’s Angel and Crème d’nude. Both are really pretty, soft colors.
How about lipgloss?
Mac’s underage, little vi, and springbean.
What is your favorite blush to use?
Again, I have a lot that I enjoy. I like Nars Orgasm, Mac Well Dressed and Mac Dainty.
Do you buy your makeup on ebay?
Nope, but I have sold some makeup before. Not on ebay, but on here.
Do you like drugstore makeup?
Sometimes, it depends on the product. I am not a beauty “snob” who believes that high end is always better but most of the time you get what you pay for with beauty products. I find a lot of great mascaras at drugstores though, and I love the L’oreal hip line (like the jelly balms!). Finding a really great product at a drugstore is always very exciting.
Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets)
Yeah! I love them! You can find cheap MAC, and usually you can find some really cool discontinued products. I wish more of these little CCO’s existed!
Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?
Yes, but I have never gotten around to it. I would love to take a few PRO classes at mac!
Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?
Lol, sometimes in the morning before class… I am NOT a morning person!
Name a makeup crime that you hate?
There are so many, lol! Overplucked brows, overlined lipliner, too much bronzer, etc.
Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones?
Both, for different moods. For everyday wear, neutrals. My everyday look is nude glossy lips with slightly heavier, but still nude eyes with black liner. Soft, but put together.
Which celebrity always has great make up?
I love Blake Lively’s beachy, bronzed look. I also really love Kim Kardashian’s makeup – many people think it is too heavy, but I love it! It’s all about nude glossy lips and heavy eyes, which is what I like to do as well.
If you could leave the house using just ONE make up item, what would you use? Mascara maybe, or tinted moisturizer. One of those!
Could you ever leave the house without any makeup on?
I do sometimes, I did this morning to go get lunch for the family. I am not a slave to makeup, but I do love it and so I enjoy playing with it in the mornings.
Do you think you look good even without any makeup on?
Yes, but like most women I prefer myself with a little color on!
In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?
That’s hard… I guess Mac for colored stuff and brushes, but I don’t really enjoy their skincare or foundation products.
What do you think of Makeup??
I love it! It’s fun – it’s expression and art in a way. Do you use eye cream?
No, i am too young!
Do you or did you have acne prone skin?

And i loved it when we put up our christmas treee, cause it was bright and all of the ornaments were soo pretty and there was a cute christmas movie on and it was cold outside... Totally my type of way to spend the holidays and christmas!! And shopping.... oh how i love getting to go christmas shopping for other people, and im really excited because me and my dad and brother are going to a city a couple hours away from my, "mystical, magical land" town, haha:) to go finish up christmas shopping for like my momm and stuff!!!

8 Most Worn Things tag (Blog-post style, yet again!:) )
Hey everyone!! Soo, i was cruisin around Youtube and watching beauty tags and saw the Tag: 8 Most Worn Things and i decided that i thought that it would be really fun to do that, but i have to do it on my blog so yeah! But keep in mind that the answers to these are mainly going to be the answers they are because it is fall and it's already like REALLY cold here! haha, so lets get started!:)
So first:
1) most worn lipstick/ lipgloss- mine is the Jane 14 Cotton Candy lipstick with Lip Smackers clear glass in Cotton Candy. So i know that this lipstick is BRIGHT pink! but when i dab it on my lips a certain way it gives a mauve/rose/light pink color and then i just finish it off with just a LITTLE gloss!
2) most worn earrings- well, i have had my ears peirced 3 times and everytime i take them out (6 weeks after, so i waited the right amount of time) and put differennt ones in they would get infected!:(( So me and my mom actually concluded that i could only wear real silver and/or real gold and you know that makes sense because her mom was the same way! so i might get them re-peirced (for the 4th time:/) but idk for now...
3) most worn shirt- Im really sorry, butttttt I really dont have one! My bad!!:)
4) most worn nail polish- It would be Finger Paint's: Artits's Sapphire and its a really dark blue and it is just a verry very cool and yet darker color for fall! i got mine at Sally's Beauty Supply.
5) most worn shoes- Now that it's fall, they are (and are already) my classic tall black boots! There not any specific name brand, but i got them last christmas so i am asking for some new ones for this christmas but there SO comfy!!
6) most worn hair product- Its a: zero-frizz serum but idk the exact brand it's from but i really like it cause i have frizzy hair and it is pretty greasy but i just flip my hair over (when its mostly dry) and run it through and kindve comb it through my hair! and it really works
7) most worn perfume-It would probably be Victoria Secret's perfume in: Secret Crush. it is a pretty strong scent but it's smell really is very femine and girlie at the same time! Im in love....:)
8) most worn handbag/ purse- Mine would have to be my Nine West over the shoulder (or crossbody bag) that i did a blog post about (so please go check that out!:) ) and i just really like it now for the fall time in school!
So first:
1) most worn lipstick/ lipgloss- mine is the Jane 14 Cotton Candy lipstick with Lip Smackers clear glass in Cotton Candy.

Rambling on anything and everything!:)
Well, im sitting in my room on a Saturday morning, bored so i just thought that i should do a blog post! I have been getting into alot of like winter and home stuff (i know, it probably sounds really clishe!) but you probably would figure that since its November! Well, i get like this every year at this time of year when Thanksgiving is just around the corner (literally!) and Christmas just almost a month away! I start getting into like candles, warm scents, baking, etc..! Well, i have been into having my room (pretty much:) clean and my nighstand having basically my life on it. lol:) like now, i have on there:
So you see how all of my stuff is just basically sitting on there and my room is somewhat clean but my school's highschool game was 3 hours away last night, (and yes, i had to go:/) but we came and got home around 12:30-1:00 so i was extremely exhausted and just put all of the stuff on my bed and put it on the floor! so im going to put up another post in just a sec.. so i can go clean my room!!!
-KissedKouture193:)
- My school planner
- a folder for something i can tell you later! (but it's going to be huge for me!!)
- the October seventeen magazine issue
- my school book
- another planner (that i just write extra stuff on cause i do have one in my purse for everyday, but im a organized and planner freak!!)
- another book, and the one im currently reading now, (ill get into that later)
- a candle
- my lamp
- and more random, misselaneous stuff
So you see how all of my stuff is just basically sitting on there and my room is somewhat clean but my school's highschool game was 3 hours away last night, (and yes, i had to go:/) but we came and got home around 12:30-1:00 so i was extremely exhausted and just put all of the stuff on my bed and put it on the floor! so im going to put up another post in just a sec.. so i can go clean my room!!!

Fall Fashion Findings!
From my research, you can suspect to see tons of: Boots, Jackets, and lots of layering jewelry and tons of accessories this fall season. Rue 21 has a HUGE selection of boots. All ranging from peep-toe booties, to boots all the way up to your knee! No joke, but don't freak! You can work those if you wear them with the right outfit like a knit, very light dress (i would suggest neutral colors), with layered necklaces and high patterned socks that you can see out of the boots. Also, the motorcycle boots have become really popular lately, their even making appearance's on celebrities like Miley Cyrus and Camilla Belle. Ankle boots would also look really, really ah-dorable with maybe some distressed skinny jeans, a long just above your knee patterned dress, with a cropped patterned (yes, i mean a different pattern than the dress) shrug/cardigan, and TONS of necklaces and jewelry.So jackets, jackets, jackets! There are probably hundreds of ways to wear a jacket, and what to wear with it. With scarves, dresses, mixing different patterns:), and my favorite way is with dresses and/or shirts with skirts into your own home-ade dress! So, i think that i'm most excited about the oxford blazers or just blazers for that matter, with dresses or *home-ade dress and boots! One of the cutest outfits i have seen lately is a dress that was navy blue top and a black skirt with flowers on the bottom. It was paired with a classic tan-colored trench and it gives a summer style because of the bright yellow pattern inside. It was paired with navy blue converse's and red, blue and gold necklaces and her hair, Victoria Justice, was pulled up into a centered pony-tail that gives the outfit a chic look but still playful with the converse and layered necklaces. She was also seen *re-inventing a simple blazer into a cute, yet wearable everyday look. On the bottom she had just a pink, orange and white flowered dress and over top of that was just a pale, baby pink sweater that ties in the front but was tied at the side. And then over top of that, was the simple navy blue blazer, cuffed up at the sleeves. It was paired at the bottom with a blue and white socks, but they were scrunched down at the bottom with Sperry Top-Sider's. So, i hope that this little blog helped you with some ideas on how you can upgrade your style this fall by wearing the cutest, yet latest trends seen in all of the top fashion magazines and on Hollywood Blvd! But remember, don't think that you have to spend tons of money on these wardrobe items, many stores with have duplicates that you can get as staple pieces and add them to your wardrobe and by the time you know it, you'll have all the pieces you need!
