This or That? Beauty Tag


Hey there readers,

                              I've decided today I'm going to do a more beauty related post. I got the idea to do the 'This or That? Beauty Tag' from Emily Emerald and her blog.

Makeup

Blusher or Bronzer? To be perfectly honest I don't really wear either.

Lipgloss or Lipstick? Lipglos I guess but, most the time I prefer to wear a tinted lip balm. I love Baby Lips by Maybelline!

Eye Liner or Mascara? Definitely mascara because I really struggle to put eyeliner on my eyelids (waterline is easy for me). So it's very rare when it looks good enough to go with it on.

Foundation or Concealer? Hmmm it would probably have to be foundation but only a light one (see my foundation routine blog post for more info).

Neutral or Coloured Eyeshadow? I rarely wear eyeshadow but, if i do its always neutral as coloured eyeshadow can be quite risky.

Pressed or Loose Eyeshadow? I've never tried loose eyeshadow because to me it seems like a pain to use as can get messy if you spill it. No one wants brown eyeshadow on their bedroom carpet!

Brushes or Sponges? I've never tried using a sponge for my makeup because I love Real Techniques brushes so much.

Body

Perfume or Body Splash? I've never really used a body splash so I guess perfume.

 Lotion or Body Butter? Body butter ,I suppose, but I use both.

Body Wash or Soap? Body wash all the way! Soap is so boring; you can get so many different scents of body wash. I love the Original Source body washes.

Lush or Other Bath Company? LUSH!!! I don’t have many lush products but what I do have is great.

Fashion

Jeans or Sweatpants? Definitely jeans but, I only wear skinny jeans because I prefer the fit of them opposed to straight leg or bootleg jeans.

Long Sleeve or Short Sleeve? Short sleeve because there are more style of short sleeved t-shirts.

Dresses or Skirts? A couple of months ago I would of said neither but, now I love wearing skirts and dresses! I'd probably say I prefer dresses just because they're easier to style. Although, I'm not the type of girl who will wear a dress with pumps or sandals. I will usually wear dresses with Converse or Doc Martians (I don't have real Doc Martians yet; just fake ones).

Stripes or Plaid? I don't really wear either, I'm more of a spots kind of girl.

Flip-flops or Sandals? I don't own any sandals but, I only wear flip-flops round the house.

Scarves or Hats? I love scarves weather it's thick ones in the winter or thin ones in the summer.

Studs or Dangly Earrings?  Studs.  At the school I go to we are only allowed to wear studs. Dangly earrings irritate me anyway.

Necklaces or Bracelets? It would have to be bracelets but, just the rope or string one s you find at markets.

Heels or Flats? I hate heels! I don't mind the way they look; they just hurt so much when I wear them.

Jacket or Hoodie? Usually I'll wear jackets. Although, hoddies are great to wear around the house.

Hair

Curly or Straight? Straight because it takes forever to curl my hair. However, I will often wave my hair with straighteners.

Bun or Ponytail? Bun because it looks like you've put more effort in but it's just as easy as a ponytail.

Bobby Pins or Butterfly Clips? Definitely bobby pins; they're so useful. Nevertheless, I still lose them.

Hairspray or Gel? I never use gel as it seems so much easier to just use hairspray.

Long or Short? For me it's short but short hair doesn't suit everyone.

Light or Dark? I have dark brown hair; I like it on me but I don't dislike other hair colours.

Side-swept or Full Fringe? I've had both and definitely prefer having a side-swept fringe.

Up or Down? I don't really have a preference.

Random

 Rain or Shine? Shine because it makes me feel happy (wow that sounds cheesy).

Summer or Winter? Although I love Christmas, It has to be summer because I hate snow.

Autumn or Spring? Spring!! Because my birthday is at the end of spring.

Chocolate or Vanilla? Chocolate is the best invention ever.

Thanks for reading,

Ellie
