Beauty blogger tag + q&a 2017

If any of you follow my instagram (idkcaits_), you'll be aware that I have had exams for the last two weeks which I why I haven't posted on my blog. But they're over until the summer! I'm back, and to start off 2017, here's a little beauty tag that I got off Eleanor Wears Also at the end I've included some question s from lovely Instagram followers who you should totally give a follow, because there names will be mentioned! <3

1. Do you have any fashion or beauty icons? Who? 

- Honestly, I have no idea, how sad is that.

2. Beauty pet peeve?
- What a hard question, I have so many lol
Top pet peeves have to un natural-non faded eyebrows (the block brow) all the way, and when you get a little patch of dry skin and it's the worst because your foundation looks dreadful? Everyone knows what I mean right

3. Would you rather wear no makeup for the rest of your life or makeup everyday (but you can take it off when going to bed)
- Easy for me, I'd wear makeup for the rest of my life, as much as it's time consuming and I'd always be late, it's honestly the best part of my day sometimes! 

4. Do you have any tips or tricks makeup/cosmetic wise?
- I learnt a few acne tricks from Chloe morello actually, to do skincare and how to handle Spots! Comment if you'd like to know it! Honestly though cream eye shadows are just my main trick, nothing better than whacking one on and giving it a blend and being completely eyeshadowed up!

5. Kim K or Kendall Jenner makeup?
- this is also hard because both are so stunning, obviously Kim's is more dramatic, so am I allowed to say both? I'd probably wear Kendall's looks in the day time and opt for Kim's amazing artist mario in the evening.

6. Do you only buy cruelty-free makeup and if so why?
- Thing is, no I don't. I think it's an amazing idea honestly and I support anyone who has made the decision to do so, but personally I'm in love with MAC soft and gentle... 

7. Skincare or makeup?
- I'm absolutely obsessed with skincare!! I love it so much and I get super excited about it. But if I had to make the vital choice between both I'd choose makeup any day, ain't nobody seeing my brows without some ABH

Questions from Instagram 

Holy grail makeup product? (Laurenjhx) 
- if you read my blog a couple years back then you'll know about my glam eyes Rimmel London liquid liner, I'm still absolutely obsessed with it and I can't use anything else!!

Favourite fashion statement? (Itsellablog)
- HAS to be my beige suede Hollister jacket, or my Chelsea boots because I'm in love with them... even my black and gold topshop belt is super cute to add to outfits!

Eyeshadow or eyeliner? (fgsprincess)
- eyeliner eyeliner eyeliner, I have the smallest eyes and without eyeliner I don't feel complete 

Favourite lip product? (kara_hole) 
- hands down Kat Von D liquid lip in Lolita 2 because I live and die in that shade 

Favourite clothing line? (x.grace.holly.x)
- proooobably urban outfitters as a whole shop, although I love topshop, some Hollister things and any cute online boutique/stores

Hello world | Q&a

Recently, a few friends have been nagging me to start a blog, and I never listened. I didn't listen because I thought that no one would read it and it would just be a complete fail. But then I decided that if I never tried, I`d never know right?
So here I am, bringing idkcaits to life(that sounded A LOT better in my head).
    I had no idea how to start a blog, in fact, I must have thought about it forever! but then I finally decided, that because you clearly know nothing about me, I`d ask my lovely Instagram followers at idkcaits_, to chip in and ask me some questions!
So get ready to learn some things that you probably don't care about
here it goes:

1. Who`s your favourite youtuber?
 - This is actually so hard, because I practically live on Youtube.. Probably TheSacconeJolys, Zoella and Tanya Burr (more than one.. Oops)

2. What`s your favourite drugstore makeup brand?
- If you count what I have more of.. it would probably be Rimmel, although I do love a good quality MUA product!

3. If you could wish for one thing, what would it be?
-I`d wish for people to read this blog;)

4. What`s your holy grail makeup product?
- My famous Rimmel glam eyes black liquid eyeliner all the way!

5. What is your one item of clothing I couldn't live without?
- My black suede Chelsea boots (because I practically live in those too!)

6. Whats your favourite yankee candle?
- Honestly I don't have a favourite, because I switch them all the time, although at the moment its Blissful autumn.

7. Why did you decide to start a blog?
- Long story short, I basically loved all of my instagram followers, and I adored showing them what I loved, I got a new laptop, and thought 'hey, why not start a blog?' and here I am!

8. Fav emoji?
- As i`m on a laptop I cant show you, but the crying laughing emoji all the way because it never fails to make an awkward situation better.


So theres a bit of an insight into my life;)
Now its my turn to ask the question...
What would you like to see on my next post?

Thanks for taking time to read my post!
love, Caitlin xx
