To start, thank you to Baby Bohemian for nominating me- check out her awesome blog. She rocks and her photos are some of my favorites on my feed. I took a long time to get around to doing this post because I wasn’t sure people would want to read about me lol. If you happen to have any other questions, feel free to ask them in the comments. I’d love to have a conversation with you! Doing this reminded me of the days where we used to do myspace surveys… a little pointless but v. fun.

When and why did you start your blog?
I had wanted to do it for years but thought I wasn’t good enough- not great at photography, didn’t have a good camera, didn’t have the body for photoing myself- all the excuses in the world. I told myself to shut up and I finally went for it September 2015. The main reason was to talk about my favorite subject- beauty and hair products. I had wanted to be fashion- oriented too but I still am self conscious of my bod and haven’t gotten the OOTD photo thing down. Excuses excuses… I’ll get there!
What is your favorite part about blogging?
My favorite part has to be sharing the little tips and tricks I discover. I grew up in a small town and solely used drugstore products up until college pretty much, so I feel like I had to come up with some hacks that made the cheapest of stuff work the best for me. Little stuff like using the Nyx Control Freak brow gel as a mascara top coat to stop mascara from smudging can hopefully help someone who doesn’t want to spend a ton of money on a high end mascara. I can annoy my friends with my know- it- all “tips” but I’d rather share it here.
What is one thing you want people to know about you?
I’d love to make blogger friends! I don’t have friends in real life with this blogging hobby so it would be great to make some.
What is your favorite instagram account of the moment?
Sarahbelle93x- her photo aesthetic and outfits really inspire me. I love fashion bloggers that have a signature makeup look they stick to and she is one of them. It makes me want to find my own signature look because I am always switching up my makeup!
Do you have an all time favorite beauty or skincare product? if so, what is it?
Too hard to answer but right now the L’oreal Brow Stylist Plumper is coming to mind. Not raved about enough!
I’ll tag The Champagne Diaries, Not Your Average Girly Girl, & Helpless Whilst Drying. Here are my questions for you:
-Which blog post are you most proud of and what are your favorite kind to write about?
-Name a beauty product you love that no one talks about.
– What is your favorite photo you have taken for your blog?
-What makeup products are you currently wearing?
– Favorite coffee drink of the moment?
-What book are you currently reading or have read most recently?
I have never tried that brow product, I will have to pick it up today at Target. It was great to learn more about you! xo
My closest friend doesn’t wear makeup but she is big into skincare, so we can talk about skincare at least. My friends who do wear makeup all live too far away but we have a group on Facebook so we can connect and share beauty finds, tips & tricks without clogging up our normal timelines (we know not everyone is into this stuff).
That’s such a fun idea! My friends are into makeup but not to the point where they want to sit down and blog about it every day 🙂
I loved your answers!! I would love to make blogging friends too and do collaborations, it sounds really exciting!! Xx
