5. Have fun!

1.  Name a beauty regime that you rarely do?

A beauty regime that I used to do daily is now something I'll be lucky to do once a month; moisturising. I still moisturise my face daily so that's not the problem, but I don't moisturise my body I have tonnes of body lotions, butters, creams etc etc and I used to be really good at keeping up with this. In the past year I've gotten so bad at it though and then I wonder why my skin is particularly dry. I do it occasionally if I'm going for a night out or something, but apart from that I won't do it.

2.  Is washing your make-up brushes something that you do regularly?

God no, I'm absolutely terrible at doing this as a regular routine. I want to do it more and I get so annoyed that I don't, but I just can't be bothered with it most of the time and I know how gross it is that I don't, but it's just one of those things I don't seem to get round to doing? Probably because I'm a lazy bugger who knows. I just think I don't take pride in the brushes I have at the moment which is why I'm thinking maybe I should invest in a nice set and some actual cleaning product for the brushes in the hope that I will actually clean them weekly or even every other week!

3.  How long will you last with chipped nail polish?

This all depends on how busy I am at the time, there has been times I've been so miffed with my nails that I've painted them 3 times in a day because I've had the time to do it. Whereas if I'm busy throughout the week, I can end up with half painted and half horrifically chipped and I'll just deal with it until I have the time and pretend i'm going for a 'grunge look' (clever I know). So I can actually last quite long with chipped nails, which isn't actually a good thing; it just means I'm too busy to do them.

4.  How long will you put off buying/replacing a beauty product, even if you need it?

If I haven't got the money, I will try and hold off for as long as I possibly can unless its something I really need and then I usually buy it as soon as I spot it.  I'm actually quite good at putting off from buying something, apart from if its for my hair because I buy my own shampoo and conditioner because I a lot more than the rest of my family so I can usually wait a week before I desperately have to buy it because I can get away with just using my families products for a little while. My liquid liner is something that if it runs out I actually have to stay out of shops where its sold just so I don't buy it because this is something I physically cannot live without!

5.  What is your worst beauty habit? 

Not using heat protectant on my hair, I know how naughty this is and after all the hair trauma I've had in the past you'd of thought I'd learnt my lesson, but nope; I'll just think "ah I'm only doing a few bits so it can't cause that much damage" DO NOT DO THIS PLEASE USE HEAT PROTECTANT. Don't be a fool like me, because you will regret it so much if your hair ends up in horrible condition, the only reason I risk it is because I leave my hair natural now most of the time and so I feel that it's not quite as bad. 

6.  Name something non-beauty related that you put off doing all the time?

 I'm embarrassed to admit that it's tidying my room, I'm what you call 'a lazy perfectionist' I want everything to be perfect and organised, but at the same time I just really can't be bothered- it's a frustrating lifestyle to live. I get so angry getting home from work and going into my room to see it messy, but I'm just so tired I say I'll do it at the weekend and then the weekend comes and I can't be bothered at all. I put it off constantly and I wish I didn't and it's so annoying.

7.  When going out somewhere, do you leave getting ready to the last minute?

When it comes to getting ready before going out, I will plan hours before. If I'm going out for the day I will set about 6 alarms the night before giving me time frames of what I need to do and when. It's probably a bit weird, but if I know I'm going out everything needs to be ordered and I need to know what I'm doing or I feel extremely anxious and I dread going out. If I make plans last minute then obviously I will try to get ready as quickly as I possibly can, but other than that I will get ready with so much time to spare.

8.  Can you commit to spending bans?

Not really no, I am a bit of a shopaholic and I just seem to be buying stuff whether I have the money to or not. I'd like to think that if I REALLY needed something then I could obviously get away with not spending money, I paid for a lot of my holiday which meant that I didn't physically have money to spend. So I'm going to count that as a spending ban! If I see beauty products or clothing that I really want I can't resist the temptation, I'm also a complete bugger for buying food that I don't need; I buy A LOT of food, which is why people are shocked I'm not gigantic. 

9.  How organised is your make-up and nail polish collections?

This is something that really gets to me, because I LOVE storage. I spend hours trawling the internet for cute/ vintage boxes and looking on MUJI  and IKEA drooling at all the the beautiful storage that they had and since becoming a lot more passionate about beauty products I really want some night storage and I would genuinely kill for the MALM white dressing table from IKEA. Sadly because my room is so small, I don't have a lot of room to expand my love for storage right now so I will just have to carry on dreaming. As for my nail varnish, at the moment I can get away with just keeping them all on a shelf.
