The Blush Addict Tag
I saw this Tag ages ago on Katie’s blog (Plus+Beauty) and I knew I had to do it. Have you SEEN my blush stash post? 😛
What color blush suits your most?
Peachy nude shades – a good representation of this would be the Clinique Cheek Pop in Ginger Pop.
Pressed, cream or loose blush?
Pressed. It’s just the easiest for me to work with. I have some cream and some loose (mineral) blushes and I hardly ever reach for them.

Seven Deadly Sins of Makeup Tag
This Tag has been going around for a while, I first saw it on fivezero’s blog, and then more recently on agirlwithpinkcheeks’s blog, which then reminded me that I had it in my draft folder. The purpose of this Tag is to name a makeup item associated with each of the Seven Deadly Sins. Side note: this Tag reminds me of the movie Se7en! (good movie but scary!)
GREED
What’s your most inexpensive beauty item? What’s your most expensive beauty item?
Most inexpensive: over the years I’ve picked up many beauty items for a dollar, but the one that I use regularly is the Wet n Wild eye shadow in Brulee, which is a fantastic brow highlight shade.
Most expensive: this is a bit embarrassing, but I paid almost $200 for a skincare set from a Korean brand I’d never heard of, and I still haven’t tried all the items yet, and that was 2 years ago. The brand is called History of Whoo and apparently it was used by the royal court. This is like the set I bought:
My goal is to use the whole regimen this winter!
The Beauty Blogger Award
I haven’t done a tag / award in ages! I’m so backlogged but I’m going to do one of the more recent ones I’ve been nominated for by StyledWithJoy, the Beauty Blogger Award. Thanks girl, told you I’d do it soon. 😉
The Beauty Blogger Award Rules:
1) State the name of the blogger that nominated you.
2) Answer the questions you were given.
3) Nominate 10 people whose blog is about beauty or fashion.
4) Make 10 questions for your nominees to answer.
5) Let the bloggers know that you nominated them.
Infinity Dreams Award 2
I was nominated for the Infinity Dreams Award by fivezero! Now, I’ve been nominated for this award before but I’m making an exception to not doing an Award twice since I’ve not done one from fivezero! 😀
The Infinity Dreams Award Rules:
- Thank & follow the blog that nominated you.
- Display the award on your blog.
- Answer the questions given to you by the amazing person who nominated you.
- Nominated other bloggers & come up with questions for them to answer.
The Versatile Blogger Award 2
I was tagged for this a while ago by Mecia of notquitelondon but my post was languishing in my draft folder, until I was tagged again recently by A Girl With Pink Cheeks which prompted me to post this already! Thank you both for tagging me – I’ve enjoyed getting to know you both in recent months. They’re “foreign” bloggers to me, meaning one is from the UK (3 guesses, which one) and the other is from Belgium. I love reading and seeing all the beauty products from around the world! 🙂
Rules:
• Thank the person who gave you this award. That’s common courtesy.
• Include a link to their blog. That’s also common courtesy.
• Next, select 15 blogs/bloggers that you’ve recently discovered or follow regularly.
• Nominate those 15 bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award — you might include a link back to the post on your site announcing their nomination.
• Finally, tell the person who nominated you 7 things about yourself.
Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award
I was nominated for the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award by My Eclectic Muse ages ago, sorry for the delay in posting this! I’m fairly new to her blog but she has a mixture of fashion and beauty posts and a unique sense of style. Thank you! 🙂
The Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award recognises the unique voices of women bloggers around the world.
Rules:
1. Thank and link the blogger who nominated you.
2. Answer the 10 questions your nominator has provided.
3. Nominate 10 other bloggers.
4. Create 10 questions for your nominees and notify them of their nomination.
The Love / Hate Tag
So StyledWithJoy (aka stalker) tagged me to do this! She was quite persistent that I do this Tag too, and I’m not sure why. (I was also tagged by Glam With Sam!) I was excited to be tagged this one because it’s new to me. And it came at a good time since I’ve decided that as of this Tag, I will no longer be doing repeat Tags / Awards going forward. I’ve added a new item on my menu above which will show all of the previous ones I’ve done for handy reference – it’s not a slight against anyone, it’s just to keep things fresh and interesting! 🙂
Rules: In this tag we have to share 10 things we love and 10 we hate and nominate up to 10 blogs to do the same.
Bloglovin made me do it
I’m a sheep – I signed up for bloglovin too.
Apparently in order to claim my blog on bloglovin, I have to post this link on my blog first:
Do eeeeet.
(I honestly still don’t know how bloglovin works – is it similar to WordPress’ reader?)
If you’re on bloglovin – please link in the comments!
