Beauty TAG: My Perfect Imperfections

So I saw this TAG all over YouTube about a week ago and I decided to do it for my blog. The premise is, you have to pick 3 things about yourself that you don't like and 3 things that you do. I hesitate to call them "perfections" because we all know there's no such thing, but that's what the TAG's called so I guess I'll jump on the bandwagon :p.

To make this simpler, I'll stick with beauty/physical/superficial related things; and I'll tell you right now, picking just three imperfections is a challenge because goodness knows I have way more than that. Haha!




1. My Calves
They're HUGE

Seriously... This means I can't ever wear boots that zip up and those that don't, well... Unless they're incredibly roomy, I pretty much have to go a size up in order for it to fit. Ohhh joy :p.

2. My Moles
Yes, they're called beauty marks, but I find that doesn't quite apply when you have 10 of them on your face. They don't bother me as much, though; I've grown to accept them as I've gotten older. But I'd still like to get rid of a few of the bigger ones.

3. My Overall Body Shape
I have a wide and curvy build; add that to a short frame and it's pretty difficult to find clothes that fit you properly. Though I enjoy shopping, it can get pretty discouraging when you can only fit 1 out of the 10 items you try on. 




1. My Eyebrows


I've never paid much attention to my eyebrows until I started sharing my eye looks and people started pointing them out to me. I've been doing my own eyebrows since I was in my early teens and I've never had any professional do them, ever. Needless to say, I'm quite proud of them :p.

2. My Hair


I used to straighten my hair all the time when I was in high school. And when I wanted it curly, I'd blow dry it straight first, then I'd curl with an iron. Hair damage, galore! Then I figured out I actually have naturally wavy/curly hair. I've also stopped dyeing my hair so it's the healthiest its ever been. Also, my hair is coarse, which is a pain when you want to straighten (something I don't do often); but it means I can pretty much style it and it keeps its shape. It also means that while my fellow dancers were teasing their hair into oblivion for our 80s piece, all I had to do was tilt my head down, apply hairspray, and voila: BIG HAIR!

3. My Dimples
Coz who doesn't like dimples? :D

Would You Rather...

Hello, lovelies! So I saw this tag at Tanya Burr's blog and I thought I'd give it a go as well. I've never done one, so I thought it'd be fun :).


1. Never use bronzer or mascara again?
Since I barely use bronzer (*gasp*), I'll go with mascara. Although I could live without that as well. What I really can't live without is eyeliner.

2. Only be able to use high end makeup or drugstore makeup again?
Though I use both high end and drugstore makeup, I think I'll go with high end. Generally, they are better quality and it's easier for me to test out products at locations that sell high end makeup. Also, I have the luxury or returning or exchanging the product if it doesn't work out, which I can't do at drugstores.

3.  Be in love or be loved?
Huh... I think I'll go with be loved. I think there's probably a greater chance of me falling in love with someone who loves me than a man falling in love with me because I love him. Did that make sense? But it all depends on the man, though, doesn't it? :p

4. Go out with chipped nail varnish or unshaven legs?
Hahaha! Um... Neither really bother me because I don't care if people judge me for having chipped nail varnish (and if they do, then they need to find better things to do in life) and I can always wear pants, can't I? But if pants weren't an option, then I'd much rather go out with chipped nail varnish. It's less noticeable :p.

5. Go out with messy hair or no makeup?
I'm gonna go with what I think is a shocking answer here and pick no makeup. I know most women will probably pick messy hair, but I'm very particular about my hair. When I'm having a fantastic hair day and a bad face/makeup day, I still feel comfortable knowing my hair looks fierce. The same cannot be said if the opposite happened. I don't know what it is, really. I guess it's because in my circle, I'm known for The Hair.

6. Leave the house with an orange tan or peroxide-gone-wrong ginger hair?
...I'm trying to imagine peroxide-gone-wrong ginger hair... I think I might go with the orange tan. As I mentioned above, I'm very particular about my hair. So I think I'll just cover as much surface area as I can with clothing and then go out and buy something to slough it all off with at night :p.

7. It were Winter forever or Summer forever?
Oh goodness... I don't think I can pick one, I quite like my seasons, thank you very much! I do like the carefree nature of summer, but I don't like sweating in places that in my opinion, shouldn't sweat :p. I love Christmas and all the Holidays entail: buying presents, all the Christmas decorations, having Christmas dinners... But I don't enjoy not seeing the sun for very long and I don't enjoy all the rain, especially because people in Vancouver somehow forget how to drive when it's raining. Which I find odd because it rains here all the damn time!

8. Leave the house with toothpaste drool or crusty yellow sleep eyes?
I'll take the yellow crusts, please. It's easier for me to notice and easier to stealthily remove :p.

9. Give up all MAC or Illamasqua products?
Since I don't own any Illamasqua products, this is a bit of a no-brainer, isn't it? But let's say I do own Illamasqua, I still think I would choose to give it up because MAC is more affordable and has a greater selection.






I tag all of you!
