The Liebster Award...

I've been nominated for 'The Liebster Award' by the lovely bloggers Zoe and Natalie.

Up until receiving these two nominations I'd never actually heard of this award; this award is designed to help promote bloggers that have under 200 followers and who you think deserves more recognition.

I think this is such a lovely to be nominated for as the term 'liebster' is German for dearest, lovely and valued.

The rules are as follows:

1. Mention the person who nominated you with a link.

2. Answer the 11 questions set by the person that nominated you.

3. Nominate 11 other bloggers with less than 200 followers.

4. Create a new set of 11 questions for your nominees to answer.

As I have been nominated by two bloggers, rather than making this an extremely long post of 22 questions, I have chosen a selection suggested from both Zoe and Natalie.

Q1//What is your favourite range of make up brushes?

My favourite range of make up brushes is without a doubt Real Techniques; they really are worth the hype and leave your make up looking flawless. I also love MAC brushes for my eyes especially the infamous 217. However, I really want to try some Sigma and Zoeva brushes.

Q2//What is your least favourite beauty related scent?

I hate anything that smells like Lavender - it makes me feel physically ill.

Q3//What make-up technique do you find the hardest?

I am yet to perfect the winged eyeliner look - how beauty bloggers make it look so effortless is beyond me. They look like Audrey Hepburn whilst I look like a Panda!

Q4//What is at the top of your beauty wishlist at the moment?

I really want to try a beauty blender because I've heard so many good things about them and watched so many tutorials where the make up looks amazing after using one.

Q5//What is your favourite range of shower/bath products?

Easy..Soap & Glory!

Q6//What is your current favourite perfume that you wear everyday?

Ralph Lauren Big Pony Collection 2 - I love this perfume; it has a fruity and floral oriental scent which is very youthful.

Q7//What is your favourite beauty/fashion magazine?

There's too many to choose only one! But my most purchased are Company, Cosmopolitan and Elle.

Q8//What is your favourite item from Lush?

Without a doubt the Bubblegum Lip Scrub (yummy!)

Q9//What is your favourite piece of jewellery that you wear everyday?

Either my Vivienne Westwood earrings or my Tiffany Heart bracelet.

Q10//What is an interesting fact you know?

99% of Louis Vuitton merchandise currently circulating the world is fake and at the end of each year LV burn all of their left over seasonal stock.
