The Seven Deadly Sins Of Beauty

More of a chatty post today totally stolen from Gemma, but I love reading posts like this, so I thought I'd have a go at it,

Greed: What’s your most expensive beauty item?
 I'm not really one for splashing out so probably my MAC foundation which I think was only around £25 I'm much more of a drug store make up kind of girl, I basically live in Superdrug.
Wrath: What item do you have a love/hate relationship with? 
Bronzer, I cannot contour to save my life me and my fact round football like face need all the help we can get in the definition department, but I often find myself looking like I have attempted to go for the facial camouflage paint worn by the army, maybe its just not meant to be.
Gluttony: What brand takes up most of your collection?
 Probably Rimmel I just find the products so reliable and consistently great value for the price, I have been slightly addicted since around the age of 12 when I basically collected Rimmel lipsticks.
Sloth: What product do you neglect the most due to laziness?
Primer! I am just far too lazy I shove enough crap on my face without the extra layer!
Pride: What product gives you the most confidence? 
A bright bold lip: especially with an all black outfit I just feel mega bad ass like Beyonce. Sadly my dreams of looking like Beyonce soon come to an end as I seem to get lipstick absolutely everywhere from my teeth to my nose, attractive I think not.
Lust: Which item is top of your beauty wish list? 
I am desperate to try something by Charlotte Tilbury, I don't mind what literally if that woman made toilet roll I'd probably want it because she is just such a make up legend, all hail Charlotte Tilbury!
Envy: Which make-up product/look is great on others but not on you?
 Winged eye liner I have spent basically years trying to perfect it and it just never work- every liner I have tried just doesn't suit me in the slightest. On occasion I have ended up looking like a 13 year old going through a goth stage.

I love posts like this so if you answer these on your blog let me know so I can have a nosey!

  12. I'm a drugstore makeup girl myself, I just love it when a product is both awesome and affordable. It's like if i'm going to spend tons of money on a makeup product it best be amazing.

  16. Great post! As for bronzer, maybe you need to find the right shade? Besides, bronzer isn't best for contouring - you want something cool-toned for that -try NYX Taupe, I love that for under the cheekbones :)
