Get To Know Me: Beauty Blogger Tag!

Hi!
 
I was reading one of Emily's posts (from Beauty Broadcast) earlier this morning and came across my tag which I thought would be really fun to do because I LOVE doing tags! I also thought this is a really good way of getting to know people.
While we're still on the subject I'd really recommend checking out Emily's blog, she's great and she a
also is on youtube too!
 
 
She has really great reviews and I trust her opinion on makeup products so much!
Now onto the tag!
I'll try and add pictures throughout because otherwise this post will look very text heavy...
 
 
1. Is your hair naturally curly or straight?
In between, which is annoying. Some of it is straight on top but then  it goes wavy/curly underneath. It's quite irritating really I wish it would choose one and stick to it!


 
 I like to curl my hair a lot but it tends to go into that annoying "in between" stage between straight and curly most of the time.


 
2. Do you dye it yourself or go to a salon?
 I dye mine myself although I dye it very close to my natural colour anyway. I've never gone to a salon to have it done because I can do it myself at home for less time and less money! :)

 
3. Do you wear the same style everyday, or do you change it?
Pretty much the same style generally...occasionally I'll change it and curl my hair or put it up but I don't tend to do a lot with my hair. It's pretty long (down to the bottom of my ribs I'd say) and so that tends to be enough of a "style" in itself! :) I never straighten my hair because it's fine and so it falls quite flat.

 
4. Do you do your own mani/pedi or go to a salon?
 I do my own nails, I've never gone to a salon to get them done I'd feel weird with someone else doing my nails!

 


 
5. How often do you change your nail polish?
 All the time..the longest my nail polish will be on is about 3/4 days. I couldn't wear it to school so I didn't have it on most of the time so in the school holidays and weekends I go crazy and change it up all the time!



 
6. Do you polish your toes in the winter or just the summer?
 All year round! For some reason it lasts ages on my toes so I tend to paint them and just leave it until I get bored of the colour or it chips/starts to grow out.


 
7. How long does it take for you to put on makeup?
 
It depends...on a school day about 10 minutes. On a weekend or when I'm doing a full face of makeup for an occasion it can take around an hour.


 
8. What do you do first? Face or eyes?
 Face! I know it makes sense to do eyes first because of fall out but because I have under eye veins I need a lot of concealing around my eyes and that tends to get mucked up when I do shadow first.




 
9. Do you collect makeup or just buy what you need when you need it?
 Both...I do run out of things and go out to buy what I need but I know that there is no way on earth I "need" as many concealers or eye shadows as I have. I definitely collect it too!



 
10. How often do you wear false eyelashes?
 Never. I've actually never in my life put on false lashes. Too fiddly and I suppose I'm lucky because my lashes are generally a pretty good length and thickness.


 
11. Do you do a full face of makeup everyday?
No,  I wear a full face on the weekends or for an occasion. During the week it's usually concealer, mascara and maybe a bit of liner.


 
12. Do you wear makeup when you're home alone or with family?
Of course! It's fun for me to put makeup on and try out different looks so I'll put on makeup even when I know I'm going to be sat at home alone!


 
13. Will you leave the house without makeup?
Yes...although it depends where I'm going.
I wouldn't go to school with nothing on for example, but I'd be happy to go to the shops with no makeup on because the chances of me running into someone I know are slim.
I'm happy for strangers to see me without makeup but not happy for people I know to see me!


 
14. How many high-end products do you have?
 I'd say at the moment about 35% of my makeup collection is "high end". I have quite a few high end palettes, concealers and shadows but generally I don't have a tonne of high end products because I feel that unless it's something unique you can get the same thing in the drugstore.
There are things I'm willing to pay more for, however like shadows and concealers.


 
15. Do you plan your OOTD every night or decide when you're getting dressed?
 Decide when I'm getting dressed. I'm not hugely into fashion so normally I don't think about it until I get up in the morning.


 
16. How often do you change your handbag?
 Pretty much never. At school I have a bag which I generally change every year. I also have a bag which I take out with me although it feels strange to call it a "handbag" because it's not really. It's pretty cool though because it's a Marc B black quilted purse with a long chain and really cool studs going round the outside.


 
17. What time do you wake up and go to sleep?
 Hm...on a weekend/holiday I end up going to bed anywhere from 11pm to 1 or even 2 in the morning. I'm kind of nocturnal. Then I'll wake up anywhere from 8am to 11am. I'm a pretty light sleeper though and normally quite an early waker so sometimes even after I've gone to bed late I'm up at 8.
On school days I'm usually in bed at 10/10:30 and awake at 7.



 
18. How often or when do you workout?
This made me laugh out loud :)
I don't ever go to the gym to work out at all. My main exercise is going for really long walks for about an hour or two at a time. Providing I walk at a fast pace this is my "workout". I sometimes do things like situps too occasionally.
 

 
19. Left handed or right handed?
 Right, although I'm pretty good at writing with my left hand too!



 
20. How tall are you?
I'd say around 5, 2....I'm fairly short.



 
21. Do you speak any foreign languages?
 I know a fair bit of French.. I can read/translate French ok but I'm not as good at actually speaking it.


 
22. How many pets do you have?
 12?
we seem to have a bit of a habit of collecting various animals...our house often looks a bit like a farm. At one point we had around 20 + pets when I was a kid. Now we've got 4 tortoises, 4 guinea pigs, a rabbit, 2 cats and a dog.
And I love them all :)

 
 This is my three-legged cat. He's one of my favourite creatures in the whole world!
 

 
23. How often are you on Blogger?
 Most days at some point although I like writing posts all in one go and the scheduling them for later.


 
24. Do you read comments posted on blogs?
 Not necessarily posted on other peoples blogs so often but I definitely read every comment posted on mine. I do occasionally scroll through comments on other blogs if it's a topic I find particularly interesting.


 
25. Do you keep a list of products to try as you see other posts?
 Yes, I have a mental list and sometimes I write them down on my phone too so that I remember them.
26. How did you come up
 with your blog name?
 Originally it was "libbylovesmakeup" but I decided that was a little too close to various other blogs/youtube channels.
Because I tend to wear makeup looks that are bright/colourful/using too much shimmery shadows I came up with MissFitMakeup instead. :)


 
27. What kind of camera do you use for your photographs?
 Usually my iphone. I have a camera in my wardrobe that I need some sort of memory card for and I really need to actually get it up and working...


 
28. How often do you clean your house?
 Hm...well I keep my room generally tidy so I clean that every couple of weeks or so.
I don't ever clean the whole house but do little bits here and there instead.


 
29. What's your favorite color?
 Blue!! It's been my favourite colour since I was a kid. I love a really gorgeous bright blue.


 
30. Do you swear?
 Yes. Not as much as some teenagers do but I generally will swear at least once a day. I tend to reserve swearing a bit though because otherwise it has less of an effect. I swear the most when I've stubbed a toe or something. :P


 
31. What are you doing with the rest of your day?
Very little sadly. It's raining here (what a surprise...) and I haven't got any plans for today. Although I am excited because I'll be going camping with friends quite soon so that thought cheers me up!
 
 
Phew that took a while! It was fun though! Let me know if there's any other tags you'd like me to do...I hope you enjoyed reading this one! Feel free to post a response to this tag!
 
Thanks so much for reading!
