The Would You Rather – Beauty (Queen of the Girl Geeks) Edition Tag

Queen of the Girl Geeks

I saw the Would You Rather Beauty Edition Tag on the web and decided to create my own version. Feel free to take it if you want!

Would you rather have Boy George or George Clooney do your make-up?

Boy George all the way! I’d really love to meet him too.

Would you rather go out in public without a bra or lipstick?

A bra as long as I could wear a heavy shirt. Going out in public without lipstick on would be really scary.

Would you rather dye your hair pink or go gray?

This is a tough one as I’m already going gray so I think I’d try pink.

Would you rather have wear clown make-up or zombie make-up for Halloween?

Zombie all the way. I HATE clowns.

Would you rather be stranded on a desert island with lipstick or sunscreen?

I’m going to go with lipstick for this one.

Would you rather wear your make-up like the 1950’s or the 1980’s?

Not even a question. Has to be the 80’s.

Would you rather put make-up on Simon Le Bon or Simon Cowell?

Simon Le Bon and I would probably faint in the process.

Would you rather only use one blush color or one lip color for the rest of your life?

Lip color and that color would be Vice Amulet.

Would you rather be a princess or a pirate?

I’m going with pirate on this one. Can I be on the same boat as Captain Jack?

Would you rather have dark nails or light nails all year round?

Dark nails. I love the Halloween shades.

Would you rather give up Lush or eat paste?

I’d eat an entire tube of paste before I gave up Lush.

Queen of the Girl Geeks

OK I am totally late on this one. I think it started in 2013 but the questions are so much fun that I decided to do it anyway!

30.jpg

1. Do you remember your first makeup item?

I do! It was huge Bonne Bell Lip Smacker in Strawberry. I wore so much I looked like a smashed a strawberry on my face. Hey, I was 9!

2. Describe your perfect mascara. Have you found one that fits your specifications?

Right now I am really into the Clinique Chubby Lash Fattening Mascara. It give me big beautiful lashes with zero clumping.

3. What kind of coverage do you prefer from foundation?

I have a love/hate relationship with foundation. Being over forty it tends to look like pancake make-up if I pick the wrong shade or consistency. I love anything that’s ultra light weight.

4. Favorite high end brand?

Urban Decay

5. What cosmetic brands have you always wanted to try but still haven’t?

I am fascinated by Jeffree Star’s line, especially the Skin Frost.

Lipstick. When I went into labour I yelled….Not before I put lipstick on!

My Urban Decay Vice Lipstick collection.

Uh…everything : )

14. Is there a brand that you absolutely can’t stand?

Not really, I’m willing to try anything!

15. Do you avoid certain ingredients in cosmetics like parabens or sulfates?
