Question of the Week – What essential products would you recommend to a friend who is just starting to build her beauty arsenal?
Answer: – I used to be reluctant to part with significant amounts of money, so it’d be no good trying to fill a newbie’s makeup bag with Chanel. For starters, I’d suggest a capsule collection of: Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner, Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation, Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer or Maybelline mineral one, A cheap neutral eye palette, Maybelline mascara (the yellow tubed one), NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream, done. Oh wait, blush…. ummm… a MyFace Cosmetics one I think.
Pink Sith – thinks that her Birchbox subscription is trying to break up with her based on the contents of the box from February.
