1. How old were you when you started to use makeup frequently? What did you put on?

When I started frequently using makeup I think I was 18 or 19 because I remember I wanted to learn how to do it before I turned 20 and wanted to look more my age. I put on eyeliner, mascara and a light foundation.

2. What does your daily makeup consist of nowadays?

Now I usually wear a BB Cream, Mascara and Eyeshadow that goes with what I’m wearing that day, nothing too loud.

3. What do you do to take care of your skin?

I wash it in the morning and at night with a genital face wash, once a week I’ll use a clay mask for my pores and when I need it I’ll use a facial treatment for acne.

4. Do you use special products for your skin type?

I have Normal type skin so I don’t really need anything special to take care of it; I just keep it clean and make sure I don’t do anything that’s bad for my skin.

5. Are there any troubles that your skin type gives you and other skin types might not experience?

My skin doesn’t really give me problems unless it’s that time of the month or I’ve been eating really unhealthy food, so I guess it depends on what I’ve been eating but the only thing I worry about is acne even though I don’t get a lot of it.

6. If yes, do you do anything about those problems?

I use products for acne prone skin and try to eat better foods.

7. Do you have tips for other people who have your skin type?

If you have Normal type skin then I guess other people would say that you’re lucky but I’d just watch what you eat and make sure you use the right products to help you with whatever you’re worried about with your skin. Also BB Creams work WAY better for people with Normal type skin, so please try them first before wasting all your money on foundation like I did trying to find one that worked!

8. Is there something you would change about your skin?

If I could keep it from getting wrinkles and aging that would be great! But I’m actually happy with my skin and accept all the different parts of me.

9. Are there certain makeup products you can not use because of your skin type? Which ones?

I can’t use heavy makeup products, most things work for me but when I use something that’s supposed to give you full coverage etc. it just feels like it’s too much for my skin since it doesn’t need a lot to cover up in the first place. So I usually stick to light or medium coverage type products and I’ll be fine.

10. Is there something about your skin that troubles you, but you haven't found a solution yet?

Just aging, but that’s natural.
