7 Deadly Sins of Beauty Meme
Snurched off cavefelem.
1. GREED: What is your most inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?
My most inexpensive one... er... probably cotton buds? Or some eyeliners I nicked off my mum.
My most expensive ones are probably my fragrances (see 7) and the Helena Rubinstein Feline Blacks mascaras I've had (this is my current one and it was worth every penny; the effect is as close as you can get to wearing falsies).
2. WRATH: What beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with?
Most of them. I don't even wear makeup that often, except to make an effort and if I'm feeling particularily fabulous. The impracticalities get in the way. Although that just reminds me of lipstick being the most complicated one, so yeah, maybe lipstick. It's so hard to draw the lines of my lips symmetrically with a lip pen and then avoid smearing the lipstick afterwards--I keep forgetting I'm wearing it. And then the fuckers always smear anyway.
3. GLUTTONY: What are your most delicious beauty products?
I don't really have any *tasty* ones. I have a berry-flavoured lip balm but I'm not addicted to it or anything (and most of the time, I just use petroleum jelly anyway).
4. SLOTH: What beauty product do you neglect, due to laziness?
Pretty much all of them apart from shampoo/conditioner/soap, TBH.
5. PRIDE: What beauty product gives you the most self confidence?
Henna, actually. I feel way more confident when I don't have crappy gray-strawberry-blonde roots.
6. LUST: What attributes do you find most attractive in the opposite sex?
What's this got to do with beauty products? And are we talking mental or physical qualities? Big brains+big heart=unf. Physically, I seem to be most attracted to skinny guys who are at least somewhat femme. If he's been repeatedly called a faggot because of his un-macho emotions and his un-macho physique, he's probably my type. (My mum keeps repeatedly asking if David Tennant is gay, even if I keep telling her he isn't...) Although often the assumptions about guys like that are true, so my chances of finding a male mate who I find brain-breakingly *physically* attractive are pretty slim (especially since I have enough common decency not to stoop to fag haggery). Sexual orientation is a bitch, I tell you.
7. ENVY: What items would you most like to receive as a gift?
Gucci Rush body lotion and/or shower gel. I think they've stopped manufacturing them, so the prices are astronomical. *sigh* Only Rush 2 (which I don't like) and Rush for Men seem to be regularly available. Beyond that, it'd mostly be 100% undiluted essential oils of rose and jasmine, which can be hellishly expensive. Rush and those essential oils are what I mostly use for perfumes, alongside sandalwood and patchouli essential oils (which are, thankfully, less expensive and ones I can actually afford to buy myself). If it doesn't smell like a French brothel or an ancient temple or a combination thereof, it's not worth wearing; that's my motto.
