Eyebrow Love Beauty Tag

Hey everyone, so I've gotten into eyebrows quite recently. I used to think that my brows were great with nothing on, but my opinion has changed quite drastically in the last year. Since I have so little experience with my own brows, I'm super curious about other people's experience with brow makeup, grooming, etc. Since eyebrows are really trendy in the beauty community right now, I thought I would take this opportunity to create an eyebrow tag! I don't know if tags such as this one already exist, but I personally have never seen one around! If it does, sorry, but I'm still curious to know what you guys' answers to these questions!

I tag everyone who read this to answer the questions either on your blog or in the comments! If you do answer it, link it to me so that I can read your answers :D

1) Do you get your brows done or do you do them yourself?

2) How often do you groom your brows?

3) Do you tweeze or wax (or thread?)

4) At what age did you start taking care of your brows?

5) Do you use an eyebrow razor or scissors to groom your brows?

6) Do you mind the dark brows, light hair look?

7) Which eyebrow shape are you rocking right now?

8) What is your favorite eyebrow product?

9) Pencil, shadow, pomade or gel?

10) Do you prefer a waxy pencil or a softer one?

11) Have you ever tried eyebrow pens? What did you think?

12) What color do you generally use to fill in your brows?

13) Do you prefer defined brows or a softer look?

14) Do you like the Instagram brow trend? Would you wear them?

15) How long does it take you to do your brows in the morning?

16) Do you have a unibrow?

17) What are your main concerns with your brows?

18) Give us your best tip for great eyebrows!
19) Have your brows evolved throughout the years? If so, post a before and after!

1) Do you get your brows done or do you do them yourself?

I do them myself, would love to get them professionally done sometime though, but I'm a little afraid of having them wrecked :/

2) How often do you groom your brows?

It greatly varies, I groom them every time I do a makeup look for the blog, but in a day-to-day basis I would say 2-3 times a month maybe? My eyebrows are pretty pale and don't grow that quickly.

3) Do you tweeze or wax (or thread?)

I tweeze and always have. I'd like to try threading though.

4) At what age did you start taking care of your brows?

I think I was around 14 or 15, but I only started filling them in this past year.

5) Do you use an eyebrow razor or scissors to groom your brows?

Nope, I don't have enough brows for that I don't think.

6) Do you mind the dark brows, light hair look?

Mostly I don't, but if the contrast is extreme sometimes it bothers me. Some gals really rock the look though, so it depends!

7) Which eyebrow shape are you rocking right now?

Mine are pretty round and thin, but that's my natural shape so, yeah, I couldn't get into the full brows trend even if I wanted :p

8) What is your favorite eyebrow product?

I love the Maybelline Define a brow pencil and the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade.

9) Pencil, shadow, pomade or gel?

I love them all and I feel like I can get a different look with each product so I used them according to the look I'm going for. Lately I do the pomade most often.

10) Do you prefer a waxy pencil or a softer one?

I prefer a softer pencil, but not too soft and I don't want it too pigmented either.

11) Have you ever tried eyebrow pens? What did you think?

I haven't, but I would be curious to try them!

12) What color do you generally use to fill in your brows?

Usually the palest I can find! I use blonde in the dipbrow pomade, dark blonde in the Maybelline pencil, Light in Milani brow kit, etc.

13) Do you prefer defined brows or a softer look?

I like both. If I'm going for a natural barely there look I usually do softer brows, but for bold looks I like defined brows.

14) Do you like the Instagram brow trend? Would you wear them?

I love them, I think they are amazing! I do feel like they are a bit much for my face though, but I wouldn't be opposed to trying them :)

15) How long does it take you to do your brows in the morning?

I do them once in a while and usually it takes about 2-3 minutes. I take longer if I do a really defined brow.

16) Do you have a unibrow?

Yep, I have to tweeze them, the hair isn't very dark in between my brows thankfully :p

17) What are your main concerns with your brows?

I have a few bald patches here and there and they are difficult to fill in.

18) Give us your best tip for great eyebrows!

For me, applying with a light hand always gives best results. I also like to layer a few different products to add dimension to my brows.

19) Have your brows evolved throughout the years? If so, post a before and after!
I never tweezed my brows that much, they simply do not grow thick so in terms of shape they are the same, but I fill them in now and I think it looks a whole lot better!

That's all for my tag! Hope you all enjoyed this a I hope some of you answer the questions :D

Crazy Food Tag

This one is for all the other food lovers that are reading this, hope you all enjoy and I tag you all to do it as well!

♥ Questions ♥
1. What food could you eat everyday? Sushi and probably ramen

2. What's your favorite restaurant? That's a really tough choice! If I'm really treating myself then I would say Yasuda in NYC. If we're thinking local, I guess Kimono here in Quebec City. I also love Ramen Ya, Le Pied de Cochon and Kanda. Argh I can't choose!
3. What city has the best food you've ever had? NYC
4. What do you get on your sub? Lettuce and cucumber, pretty boring huh?
5. What do you get on your pizza? pepperoni, bacon and mushrooms
6. Is there a food you've always wanted to try? pumpkin pie! I think I might have had some when I was little, but I can't remember the taste 
7. Tell me about your worse restaurant experience. Having backpacked a lot, I've had quite a few aweful restaurant experiences and I can't remember one in particular that was the worst. There was also this place in my city which does Libanese food. First off, the authenticity was severely lacking (Lebanese place serving brown gravy anyone? Also the execution was terrible. I can remember distinctly how much my mom was appalled by the placed even being called Lebanese - not that I'm an expert or anything, but this place is really bad people)
8. Who's a better cook; your mom or dad? My mom does most of the cooking
9. What is one food you just fail at making? Eggs over easy, I always break the yolks -_-
10. Name your least favorite foods. raw tomatoes, tapioca (or rice pudding) and relish
11. Raw or cooked veggies? Both!
12. How do you like your steak? Rare
13. Do you enjoy cooking or baking better? I love the idea of baking, but I'm not that into sweets, so in reality I much prefer cooking. 
14. What's your fav fast food place & can you name 5 items off of the menu? A&W! And no I don't think I can name 5 things because I always order the same thing, the Mozza burger :)
15. Name a food place you wish was closer to you. All the ramen shops in NYC ♥ Also I wish there was a good Lebanese restaurant closer. I really miss it since I used to eat it all the time back home.
16. Ultimate fav desert. Cheesecake

18. Favorite food to eat at Christmas? Meat pie :)
19. What's the first food that comes to mind... NOW? Tikka Masala chicken, because that's what's cooking in the slow cooker at the moment and it smells delicious in here.
20. Do you have any weird food habits? I like to put pepper in my soup for some reason. Other than that nothing I think.
21. What holiday is your favorite for food? Definitely Christmas
22. What's one food you would NEVER try? Anything pertaining to bugs, yuck :/
23. Do you know your best friends favorite food? Well I'm not sure he has a favorite food per say, but he's a huuuuge fan of ramen.
24. What's the best thing your mom makes? That's a tough one! I love her stew, her gumbo sandwiches, her glazed carrots, her lasagna, her lemon chicken, her banana bread, There's too many to choose from :p
25. What's your favorite style of eggs: Scrambled, boiled, poached, over easy or sunny side up? Over easy all the way for me
26. Name your favorite restaurant that closed down. The steakhouse where I got engaged and went to my three first valentine's day with the boyfriend closed a few years ago and I was really bummed out about it. Not only was it a place filled with memories for us, but the food and service was also great. At home I'm not much of a red meat eater, but I do enjoy a good steak when we eat out and they did a great fillet mignon. They even had a kick ass cheese fondue one year. I really miss the place.
27. Do you like your bread toasted light or dark? Light!  I prefer when it's still quite soft and not too crunchy.
28. Do you like spicy food? I love it dearly :)
29. Seafood? Nom ♥ I've discovered a very fond love for scallops recently!
30. First food that comes to mind that is green? Asparagus

That's all for this food tag! Hope you all enjoyed and have a wonderful week!

Beauty Scenario Tag

Hey everyone! Quick tag for you all today! I'm quite late on the bandwagon with this one, but better late than never right?


THE QUESTIONS: 
1. You have to get rid of all your foundations and you can only keep one high end and one drugstore, which do you keep?

The question is pretty easy for me as far as high end goes. I don't own any high end foundations. For the drugstore part of the question, I think I would go with Covergirl Stay Fabulous foundation. I love the coverage and finish and I could always mix it up with some moisturizer to make it more sheer.

2. You go for an interview and the lady interviewing you has lipstick on her teeth. Do you approach the subject or ignore it completely?

I depends how comfortable the person makes me feel, but frankly I would have to feel very comfortable to bring that up which is unlikely to happen in an interview.

3. You're not feeling yourself and need a pick me up. Which lipstick do you put on to make yourself feel beautiful?

Lip balm! I'm really not much of a lip person. I always feel like it makes me look odd. I would chose a slippery balm that looks a little shiny on the lips. Other than that I rarely go for makeup on the days where I need a pick me up. I'd probably do a spa evening thing at home (bubble bath, face mask, candles and a drink) or have a nice meal instead.

4. You go back in time for a day to your teenage years, how would you do your hair and makeup differently?

I would part my hair to the side and stay away from home colorations. For makeup, well I wasn't wearing any. I did have a small phase where I would put white liner on my top lid which looked hideous. I would definitely stay way from that!

5. You ask your hairdresser for a shoulder length Pixie Lott hair cut, but they hear wrong and give you a pixi cut. Do you a) Smile, say thank you, leave and call your mum hysterical b) Cry in the chair and things get awkward or c) Complain to the manager and demand a refund.

Definitely complain. That is a very big mistake. However, I don't see how that would happen. I'd definitely stop the hairdresser when I saw where things were headed so I wouldn't end up with super short hair.

6. Your friend surprises you with a 4 day city break and you have 1 hour to pack. Which 'do it all' palette do you pack in your makeup bag?

Urban decay Naked Basics for sure. I has everything I need for simple day time looks. I might also bring the Smashbox Full Exposure Travel palette for some shimmer. That's what I did recently when I went on a cruise and it was a great combo!

7. Your house has been robbed, don't worry everyone is safe, but your beauty stash has been raided. What's the product you really hope is safe?

That's kind of a silly question :p I guess I would be most sad if any of my high end products went missing (I don't have many and I cherish them!). So probably my Naked Palettes of my Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette.

8. Your friend borrows your makeup and returns it in awful condition. Do you a) Just pretend you haven't noticed b) Ask them to repurchase it or c) Secretly do the same to something of theirs 

I don't lend my makeup to other people, so that solves the issue :p

Me Time Tag

Hey everyone, today I'm doing the me time tag! For me, me time is an integral part of my weekly routine. It helps me unwind, beautify and de-stress! I do it as often as I can and it helps tremendously. I feel pampered after and it seems like a real treat to myself. Usually I will do a spa night complete with face mask, hair mask, nails, bubble bath, tv, etc. 

TAG QUESTIONS:

What do you watch or read during me-time? I usually catch up on my shows or read my current book (right now I'm watching : Buffy, Gilmore Girls, The Originals, and I'm reading : The Infernal Devices series)

What do you wear during me-time? #nobra I like to wear a plush robe with comfy pjs. Sometimes I also wear hoodies with animal ears :D 

What are your me-time beauty products? Lush bubble bar, a scented candle, Lush face mask, redken all soft shampoo and conditionner and a good lipbalm

Current favourite nail polish? I haven't been wearing any lately. I wore a forest green one from Revlon that I loved, but it stains like crazy so I'm not doing that again.

What do you eat/drink during me-time? It depends on my mood... sometimes I'll have tea, or wine/sake, but most of the time I like to have an alchool free beer because I love the taste! I don't tend to eat anything when I do me time.

Current favourite candle? I don't have a favorite candle right now, because I've only got one left, but I've been liking manly smelling candles and citrusey scents.

Do you ever have outdoor me-time? I didn't know that existed, lol. It's much too cold in the winter time to do that over here. All in want is come back in as quickly as possible!

Would you ever go see a movie alone? Probably not. Not that I would mind being on my own, but I'm a home buddy so I'd rather wait and get the DVD or watch it on Netflix in the comfort of my home :P

Favourite online shop? I've tried buying clothes online and it was a disaster - nothing fit me right. I don't buy that much stuff online, but I do like Sephora and Amazon.

Anything to add? What else do you do during me-time? nah that's pretty much it :P

That's all for this tag! Hope you all enjoyed reading it! I tag everyone who hasn't done it yet to do it also on their blog. If you do, go ahead and post it in the comments! I'd love to read yours :)
