TAG//Seven Deadly Sins Of Make-up



I was tagged by the splendid Nika M to do this. You should check out her Blog, it's super lovely!

The rules of the seven deadly sins of beauty tag
1) Follow and link up the person who tagged you
2) Answer the questions on greed, wrath, gluttony, sloth, pride, lust and envy.
3) Tag as many people as you wish! Be sure to let them know!
4) Let the person who tagged you know that you did the tag by linking up in the comments!

Greed- what is your most expensive beauty item?

Umm, I'm not too sure really. I would say my latest splurge of a Michael Todd Discovery Kit was quite pricey at £36. But in general I don't have any super outrageously expensive pieces. 

Wrath- which item do you have a love/hate relationship with?

Illamasqua Skin base foundation. some days I love love love this and others I find it Oxidises on my skin and can also end up looking too oily. I have repurchases this twice now, so I must love it.. But I definitely have a love hate relationship with it. 

Gluttony- what brand makes up most of your make-up collection?

Hmm.. tricky. I would have to say my beloved Revlon has started to take up a lot of room in my make up collection over the last year. Also, I didn't realised until I did this question, but I also own a lot of Benefit.. Who knew.?!

Sloth- which product do you neglect the most due to laziness?

Haha I thought about this long and hard and came to the conclusion that I don't actually get lazy on anything. I really enjoy applying my make up and, in general, always wear the whole sha-bang. I hasten to add, I don't wear loads everyday, but I do always have a full face.

Pride- which product gives you the most confidence?

LIP! Reds. Bright Fuchsias. Berry tones. You name it, I probably wear it. I just love lipsticks and I always feel my outfit in not complete if I haven't got a perfectly pretty lip applied. It doesn't have to be bright, I do love a nude too :) 

Lust- which item is at the top of your beauty wish list?

YSL Mascara Volume EffectFaux Cils Babydoll - Shade 04. Ooo this looks so super pretty and amazing. I adore the YSL Shocking, so I know this will be amazing.. plus it is such a beautiful Plum shade - which looks so pretty with Green eyes like mine.

Envy- which make up product/look is great on others but not yourself?

The one look I want to love is definitely the 'barely there' just mascara look. I just can;t do it. I just find my face looks too dull and my eyes don't pop unless I have  some shadow or eye-liner applied. 
I hope you enjoyed reading my attempt at the Seven Deadly Sins of Make-up!

I ♥ spring tag







What is your favourite Spring nail polish?

At the moment I have been loving Revlon - Blue Lagoon. I'm also really been to try the Nails Inc. Cornwall  Feathers Effect nail polishes :) I think they are so cute!

What is your must have lip colour this Spring?

I'm really into Corals and Fucshia's at the moment - It's such a refreshing change from Pin-up Red's and Vampish Berry tones which I love, but are being pushed into the back of the Lip Drawer in favour of a much needed ,bright, pop of colour :)

Show/Tell us about your favourite Spring dress?

Last week I brought myself this, in my opinion, stunning Spring shift Floral dress from Oasis which was £45.00. The cut is super flattering and personally I think it looks much for exspensive than Oasis ( I thought it looked a little Ted Baker esc).

What is your favourite flower?

At the moment I love Daffofils, I always have a bunch in my room as they look like little Suns which makes me so happy and cheers me up :) They're also dirt cheap at around only £1 a bunch. I also adore Tulips as their so elegant and come in so many colours!

What is your favourite Spring scarf/accessory? 

At the time being I don't really have a favourite scarf, as I mainly was (faux ) fur stoles, but I am crazy in love with Jewelery this Spring. I espcially am into statement necklaces. I rescently went to Primark and found 6 amazing necklaces which I've had so mcuh use out of. They are just amazing for sprucing up an otherwise plain or dull outfit.


 

What Spring trends are you most excited for?

I have done a whole post dedictated to Spring Trends, as I absolutly love the chnage in fashion from Winter to Spring as it is just a refreshing wash of colour after the darker hues on Winter trend. If you want to see the Trends I'm especially excited for check out my post.

What is your favourite Spring candle?

I would LOVE to say my favourite Candle is Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay Candle, however, I could not justify £38.00 on a Candle, however I do think this is an abolsutly beautiful buy. One candle I can say I always have burning in my room is the Wax Lyrical Vanilla & Tonka candle - I get mine from my local Waitrose.

What is your favourite body spray/perfume for Spring?

This for me is an obvious choice - Chanel Chance - Eau Tendre. It is such a beautiful, fresh, young girly scent. This fragrence is (I'm rubbish at describing scents) is fruity and floral but not in the slightest way sickly. The staying power is also really good, as I often find Perfume does not last on me.I'm also lusting after  Chloe - See By Chloe, which is so lovely.

What is Spring like, where you live?

Where I live Spring is always lovely & hot. It's rare to see a cloud in the sky in Spring - HA only joking I live in yorkshire! Spring is very temperemental in Yorshire, you will get the occasional sunny day but in general it is generally warmer than Febraury time - but beware for cloudy days & col breezes!

What is your favourite thing about Spring?

Hmm, tricky one. I think the main things I adore about Spring is the fact that the world seems to come to life, the countryside near my house is awash with baby animals and the flowers come out :) As gay as it may sound, the flowers really make me smile on my to work when I see them.

Are you a Spring cleaner?

I'm going to have to say no, but that is purely based on the fact that I more or less obsessivly clean all year round :)

Any plans for a Spring break/Vacation?

YES :) I'm very excited to be taking advantage of the bank holidays at the end of May  and taking myself off to Holland for a few days to spend time with my sister-in-law/bestfriend, Juul. I absolutly can't wait :) EEEEK.
I TAG you all to do this tag, and if you do it.. please comment below with the link to it so we can all have a read of your Spring answers!
