I wore cover girl cream foundation with play swirled in, cover girl mineral powder, just a pink eye shadow, blue eye liner, and mascara. I wore blue because black smeared so bad and made me look like a raccoon lol that was before I discovered primer haha

I also have to admit I owned no makeup brushes nor did I see the point of having them. My life has changed dramatically. Lol!!

Oh, god! I hated wearing makeup before I discovered my love for it. I literally just had blush, one tube of eye shadow and mascara.

I've always loved makeup. My mom always bought be good makeup for presents. In highschool I went through my punk rock/ goth/ club kid look and always did extremely colourful smokey eyes everyday with false lashes. Now that I'm engaged and have kids I've toned it down and like my look a lot better. Much classier and put together. Not so Michael Align and James st James.

I started really getting into make up at the age of 18. Before that I didn't wear much but I used Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse and lined my eyes with Urban Decay 24/7 liners and used mascara.

LOL, I didn't wear foundation or anything on my face, especially not blush! And I just wore super thick black eyeliner, mascara, and either neon pink eyeshadow or silver eyeshadow or really black...Thinking I was doing a smokey eye, hah! And I would match my shirt sometimes. Scary to think about those days...blech!

I started when I was 11! Haha I didn't know anything (I thought an eyeshadow pigment was a "paint pot".) I bought some Rimmel stuff and used purple and blue as my lid and crease color with silver. My dad was like •_•. And then one time I wore a bright pink eyeshadow all over the lid and then went in public!! Oh dear haha! Now I know a lot more and I'm so much more experienced.

My love affaire started when I was three and sick in my parents bed and my mom gave me some old makeup to play with. We all have the flu so this afternoon I set up dd with a big poofy brush and some weakly pigmented blush and tinted lip balm. She already starts her day off with hufume(perfume) And hand lotion. Her idea not mine but ahh, a diva is born!

I used to wear Covergirl & NYC foundations. Also NYC powders. I would just buy the cheapest stuff & wear it!
I also only used scratchy brushes that I'd get from The Color Workship makeup kits haha. This was 8 years ago, when I was 13.

My mom for some reason let me wear whatever starting at 13. I don't think boring was the word for those next couple years... More like scary. Just too too much makeup

I would sneak & wear makeup when I was in jr high. My mom and grandmother wore fashion fair makeup. When I was finally allowed to wear it I always wore high end especially my foundation. My love of makeup started early. My biggest issue was applying eye shadow correctly. Drug store products have come along way.
