The Would You Rather Beauty Tag

Hi everyone!

The lovely Sharlynn of The Blackmentos Beauty Box tagged me to do a Would You Rather Beauty Tag last Sunday. It is one of those stranded island kind of questions, only that this is all beauty related.

I'm well-known for not completing tags or taking a few months to do them. By the time I got down to doing them, all the hype would had died down. I usually take a long time to do them as I find tag questions difficult to answer since I can get really indecisive at times. This Would You Rather Beauty Tag seems fun and easy to do so here goes!




1. Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip glosses or lose all of your palettes and eye shadows?

I would rather lose all my palettes and eye shadows.

I only use eye shadows during special occasions. I've probably got about 7 palettes and eye shadows combined. Except for 2 of them, all the rest are gifts.

Mascaras and eyeliners are just about the only daily make up I NEED in my life. Whenever I do not apply mascara or do not line my eyes, there would be at least 1 person asking me if I were sick. Ah, the wonders of just mascara and eyeliners. I'm not a lip person but I do have my subtle colour-changing lip balm with me all the time. So yeah, definitely an easy choice for me to make.

2. Would you rather chop all of your hair off or never be able to cut it again?

The question didn't state that I could never grow my hair long again after chopping it off right?
I would chop off all my hair coz hair could always grow back again. Besides, I do fiddle with the thoughts of shaving my head for Hair for Hope when my good friend and my 2 sisters did it.

I would also choose chopping my hair off any time coz do you ladies know how it feels to NEVER be able to cut your hair EVER AGAIN? Your hair would look like these people in the collage below. I'm not sure about you but I know that I would scare the hell out of myself when I look into the mirror looking like these people. I would also scare the hell out of anyone at home should I walk around the house looking like that during the witching hour.

UGLY!




Long straight hair. Long straggly hair. Long tangled hair. Long dreadlocks. Long curly hair. If you could never cut your hair ever again. They would become helluva UGLY. Heck, I feel goosebumps typing this portion as I look at the ghostly long hair figures from the top of my eyes.

UGLY!




I know MANY bloggers who did this beauty tag answered that they would rather never be able to cut their hair again. Most of them are beauty bloggers with really lovely long hair.




Black, brunette, blonde, ash. Hair with great shape. Sleek shiny with highlights. Soft choppy layers. Light wisp of curls. These are examples of long hair which I absolutely heart. I didn't even include those self-tonged curls coz I could write a whole post about them.

Wheet!




Sometimes beautiful long hair comes as a whole package. Say, if you are dressed in super hot shorts with long tanned legs, it sort of accentuates the beauty of your long hair. The right hair colouring like cool ombre tones also bring out the beauty of an otherwise dull long hair. And if you noticed, I used the same black hair picture again coz I personally lurve the soft look for black hair and not those overly straight and shiny kind of Asian hair for shampoo advertisement.

Wheet!




But ladies, if you were to NEVER be able to cut your hair again, they would slowly become like this. Perhaps some of you could still find leg length hair beautiful, but I seriously want to take a pair of scissors and snip these hair off. Do they actually sit on their hair? What if the wind blows their hair and brush them across street dustbins etc?
(I'm aware that I kept using black, brown and blonde hair. No offence to the auburn. I guess people with auburn hair has enough sense not to keep their hair that long.)

Um... En route to UGLY.




So this is what would happen to your hair if you were to never be able to cut them again. Cue to look at first two collages again if the above fails to dissuade you.



3.Would you rather have coral cheek or pink cheek?

Pink cheek.

Most coral kinda look too orangey on me. Besides, there are many different shades of pink but only those few shades of coral.


4. If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or make up?

Clothes definitely.

Remember that I could survive with just mascara and eye liner? Why would I need $1000 worth of mascara and eye liner? Give me $1000 for a wardrobe revamp any time.


5. Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?

Now I thought that this question is weird coz eyeliners to me are mainly in black and also in shades that eye shadow carries. Those colours as lipstick??? Totally weird.

And lipstick as eyeliner? Seriously? Oily lipstick on your lids makes super oily lids. Come on. I don't understand the logic of this question at all.

If I definitely have to pick one, I would go with applying black eyeliner as lipstick for Halloween.


6. Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?

Definitely Sephora!

I love variety; I could buy lots at Sephora. I don't even own a single MAC item. And that's why I'm not a beauty blogger.


7. Would you rather only use one eye-shadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?

One lip colour.

I usually only wear lip balm and I realised that all the lipsticks I have are in almost the same shade. However I have a few colours of eye shadow and they all create different looks.


8. Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?

It is difficult for me to choose. Singapore is a tropical country where we have sunny and rainy seasons and it is usually hot and humid at any time of the year. Yet, I would always need an outerwear in the freezing cold office. I would go with wearing winter clothes in summer in an air-conditioned place. How's that?

9. Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?

Bright nails.

I love painting my nails in nudes and pastels so I would think those are considered bright? I love how classy dark nails are but they look like crap when they chip.


10. Would you rather give up your favourite lip colour or favourite eye product?

Give up favourite lip colour.

If you haven't already figured out after the 10th question, I'm an EYE person. I don't have big eyes so I'm really into eye products to enhance my eyes.


11. Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?

Messy bun.

I love wearing my hair in a messy bun at home. You know those hair hacks that says tie up your hair in a ponytail during bad hair days? No such thing for me. A pony tail has to look good too. A bad hair day hair equals to a bad hair day pony tail. You can't see a bad hair day in a messy bun. So there.

12. Would you rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lip gloss?

Rather never use lip gloss.

I could still use lip balm, lip stains and other lip products other than lip gloss. I hate the stickiness of lip gloss anyway. I simply NEED to paint my weak nails with a coat of nail product even if it is just a transparent coat. I can't stand them soft and weak and unpainted.


13. Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?

Sharpie? Seriously? When you talk about sharpie them in, do you actually mean that marker? Hell no, that's as bad as having no eyebrows. Maybe I would choose to sharpie them in everyday and hone my skills over time and have skills of drawing eyebrows that do not look like sharpied brows. 




14. Would you rather live without make up or nail polish?

Without nail polish.

As much as I love to paint my nails, I need my eye make up more. Having my usual mascara and eyeliner on would enlarge my eyes by two times. If you want to know how my eyes look without make up, just look out for photos when my eyes look like slits.
