What does beauty mean to you?
For me beauty means being confident in who you are and embracing all your imperfect perfections.

Ever had acne? How did you deal with it?
Yes, 3 months after I had my first baby, I got a bad acne break out. Took me 2 years to completely get rid of it. Being patient and accepting of the condition plus using the right products helped me through it.

Describe your perfect mascara, have you found one that suits you?
I like wet and wild mascara because it has fibres that build onto your natural lashes so no need to wear fake lashes.

Do you wear fake lashes?
Some times I do but not very often.

What kind of coverage do you prefer from foundation , full or medium?
I prefer medium foundation mainly because I have a good skin so no need for full coverage.

First thing you notice about people’s makeup?
Eyebrows !

Do you have a beauty budget or do you spend freely?

I spend freely.
