Tag Week: 5 Things You Didn't Know About Me

Source: 7yaks.wordpress.com

A big thanks to Sandy from Eyes for Makeup, who tagged me to do a "Get to Know Me" type post. Absolutely love your questions, Sandy. I enjoyed answering them!

1.What do you do outside blogging? Work, study, chase pigeons?
I'm studying Medicine at uni.

2. Do you have any special talents like singing or burping the alphabet?
I wish I had a special talent. I'm not aware of any. I think the closest one would be "being bossy".

3. If you could be any animal, what would you be?
I'd like to be a dog. Either a Labrador or Golden Retriever or a Border Collie. They are such happy and lovable dogs! If not, I'd be an alpaca. They are sooo adorable!

4. If you could only eat 3 things for the rest of your life, what would they be?
Wow. This is hard. If I have to be practical about it, I'd choose fish, broccoli and corn. I'm probably taking this question too literally.

5. Do you feel like you don't have enough, have enough or have wayyyy too much makeup?
I think I have enough makeup. Probably more than enough. I can't help but want more though...

Here are my 5 questions:
1. What's your favourite makeup product at the moment?
2. Apart from blogging, is there anything else that you do as a hobby?
3. If a genie appeared and would grant you one wish, what would that one wish be?
4. Would you rather have an amazing wardrobe of clothes and shoes or an amazing makeup/beauty collection? Choose one only.
5. If you could only eat one dessert for the rest of your life, what would it be?


Even if you haven't been tagged, please feel free to answer these questions in the comments section below or make a post on your blog!

Hey guys, I was tagged by Court from Made in Marcelle to answer 10 questions as part of the Liebster Award. Sorry, Court, I did not mean to take so long to post this!

Have yet to find one. But if I really must put one down, it'd be Bobbi Brown's. 

6. What do you use to apply your foundation? Hand, sponge, or brush?

Hands, most of the time. Brush, sometimes.
