I post this not out of narcissism (I wish I were that confident!) but because it makes it easier to understand my grading scale when it comes to products. There's also my personal blurb at the bottom. Thanks for reading!
♥My skin is combination. I have an oily t-zone but dry cheeks. This is annoying. I am prone to breakouts if I use the wrong products.
♥I am a MAC NW30 at my palest. L'Oreal True Match N3 (winter) or N4 (summer). These are my main brands concerning foundation, but I am always up for a challenge :3
♥My lips dry out easily. Part of this is because I work so much, I forget to really hydrate. This leaves me a little disheveled and shriveled. Products that alleviate this are awesome. I also have horrendously oily lids, so if an eyeliner or eyeshadow stands up to it with primer, good. If it stands up to my lids un-primed, all I can say is, "holy shit."
♥I am a sunscreen freak. I am not a model (nor will I ever be) so I have no reason to really buy foundations or lotions without SPF because I'm not constantly having photos taken of me (thank God, I'm not photogenic). I am huge on preventative skincare. This also affects my preferences.
♥I am influenced by Genesis P-Orridge, Karen O, Debbie Harry, Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen, Grace Jones and Kanye West. A lot of my fashion and makeup choices are not conventional, nor do I think my style is universally appealing. I will still hunt down unconventional products.
♥I am a palette junkie. I rarely buy single shadows unless they are colors I regularly use (MAC's Pearly Seed, Brulee and Carbon >_<;; I can be so narrow minded when it comes to my MAC obsession). I am not a fan of buying single eyeshadows so these will be rare in my reviews.
♥I am not a professional makeup artist. I am self taught. I taught myself to draw, sew and paint. Makeup was the next natural step.
I'm %$#@! Poor.
