GETTING TO KNOW MAKEUPPER! SPOTLIGHT ON CHRISTEL HANSEN!

Thank you!! :) I actually have a post on my blog about all the products I used for that look, which you can view here: http://makeupper.blogspot.com/2009/04/fotd-purple-smokey-eye.html :D It's basically just a pink eyeshadow pigment that has a blue pearl in it, applied over a dark cream base.

Hi there! Thank you, it's nice to meet you too! :D Oh you definitely have to try it! Because it's such a great cleaner in general (I use it as a household cleaner as well, haha!) it gets rid of all the product buildup you get from shampoos/conditioners/hairspray etc and really gives your hair a deep clean. :D

Hi! Thank you! :D Omg, I know right, it looks so amazing! I have the Dramatically Neutral palette which has a couple of pearl paints in it, and they're so gorgeous!! And it's on sale at www.makeupandglow.com.au at the moment - argh, if only I had the money! :P

Hi Lily! Nice to meet you too! Thank you so much! :D Being a makeup artist is quite possibly the greatest thing in the world, lol! I would definitely encourage you to take a makeup course if you're really interested in it! And trust me, the whole colour thing comes naturally after awhile because you have to practice it so much! :P

Hi there! :D Baking soda basically gives your hair a really deep cleanse and gets rid of all the product buildup you get from using any hair products. It's truly great! Thank you!! :D Definitely give it a go! If it doesn't work for you atleast you'll always have it on standby for burns and stuff, lol :P

Hi there! :D Oh me too! I really need to go there soon and get some more satsuma shower gel :P The beautyblender is amazing! Although if you're in the states I hear there's a cheaper version of it that's blue.. sorry I'm not quite sure of the name.. but anyway I hear it's supposed to be just as good as the beautyblender! If it was available here, I would've tried that first! :P

Hi!! :D Definitely give it a go, I hope you like it as much as I do! Cetaphil is GREAT mixed with foundations! I always mix it with my cream foundations - it makes them all buttery and amazing! I love it! And when mixed with liquid foundations you can get a perfectly matched tinted moisturiser. :)

Hi there! :) It really is, I couldn't think of a more enjoyable job to be honest! Lucas papaw is GREAT! I go through so much of it though, I love how it can be used for anything and everything!

Hi there! Hehe, I feel even more lucky that I have her, and she's just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside! Home and away is an Australian drama set in Summer Bay (a beautiful little town on the coast). It basically just follows the lives of all the people who live there and of course being a drama, there's always something crazy happening. :P It's been going for years, if you're familiar with Neighbours, I think it's the same kinda thing, but waaay better in my opinion. :P

Thank you so much!! It's great meeting you too! Oh I can't get enough of it, hahaha! I love how there is always so much drama that if you do happen to miss a few episodes you don't know what's going on! Lol! And I adore Alf, everything he says just cracks me up! :P

I used to be an Avon rep which is how I found out about it! :D It's sooo good! And it doesn't get hot enough to burn you, so you don't need to worry about burning your eyelashes off (which would be even scarier than pulling them out with a traditional curler!) Lol!

Thank you so much!! :D Omg, I haven't seen that in so long - dying to see it now! Baking soda really is soo good! And I have to admit, it's hard not to love a site as amazing as this!! :D

It really is!! The greatest feeling is when you've just done someone's makeup and they keep thanking you and can't stop staring at themselves in the mirror! There really is nothing better than making someone feel good about themself. :D

The one I bought was about $25 NZD, so it is more expensive that what you'd usually pay for a traditional curler, but in my opinion it's definitely worth it! Oh I'll have to try it on my heels!! They're always so dry and cracked, would be great if it helps :D

Hiii! I love it! Definitely pricey, but with results like that, I can't complain! :P Hey I just realised, I follow your blog! :D

Aww, thanks Rai!! :D

Thank you! :) I hope it's useful and would love to know how it turns out when you try it! Homemade cookies and cupcakes don't last long in this house, I tell ya. Lol! Pumpkin instead of oil and eggs?! That sounds really interesting! I can honestly say that I would try and eat cookies and cupcakes for every single meal if they weren't so unhealthy. :P

I love it as a primer! I find it actually works much better than the Smashbox photofinish primer - for everyday use atleast! It seems to control the oil on my face quite well, but I'm not sure if it would be enough if you have really oily skin. A mattifying gel would probably be much more useful!

Thank you!! :) I hope the baking soda trick works for you! I have to say by the way, that those cupcakes look delicious :P

Thank you so much!!! :D I'm going to have to start using baking soda to brush my teeth, I imagine the results are great! Lash Blast is so good, the wand itself is amazing! So nice to meet you too, and I have to say I absolutely LOVE reading all your posts! :D

Yeah they really are!! :D Is your aloe vera gel the clear kind? Not sure if the green ones you can get would work very well to be honest. I've used baking soda in three different ways - I've applied baking soda straight onto my hair without mixing it with anything, made a paste by adding water to it and applying that, and also mixed some with my shampoo and then applied that. All three ways have worked well (although applying it straight to the hair seems to work best), just make sure that your hair is wet before using it! :D

Hi there! Nice to meet you too! :D You're more than welcome, hope you find it useful! :)

Thanks! Hope you find them useful! :)
