7 Deadly Sins of Beauty Tag!

♥ Hello and happy February!

My friend Ginger of Ginger Loves Make-Up has tagged me in another cool beauty survey, so I am happily filling this out! This is the 7 Deadly Sins of Beauty tag. Let’s dive in!

Greed: What’s your most expensive beauty item?

I have been slowly upgrading my make up collection to higher priced & higher quality, so I actually have a few things to pick from for this one! The most expensive item on my vanity would be my $52 Urban Decay NAKED palette, but my brother bought me that for my birthday. So if it’s something I’ve bought, then I’d say my new Tarte Be MATTE-nificent palette, which was $36. I posted about that Tarte palette here.

Wrath: What item do you have a strong love/hate relationship with?

My OCC lip tars! I bought the 4-pack of minis over the holiday season, and believe me, it was a struggle to get them. I went to several different Sephora locations multiple times, and the sales assistants kept saying they didn’t even think they were going to get the minis in stock! I finally found them right before Christmas at the Sephora two towns away. Once I got them home, I was so excited… But they’re a little hard to apply, and a pain to wear, since I have to check myself in a mirror frequently with one on. Definitely love/hate. Here are the four colors:

Gluttony: What brand takes up most of your collection?
Definitely NYX. I have tried just about all of their products, from eyeshadow to lipsticks, since they’re so well priced. I love NYX! The soft matte lip creams are some of my favorite lip products.

(PS- it is pronounced NICKS, not N-Y-X!)

Sloth: What product do you ignore the most due to laziness?
I almost never wear foundation. The most I will do is BB cream or concealer/powder. I’m just too lazy to make sure it’s applied perfectly!

Pride: Which product gives you the most confidence?
Mascara, for sure. I could curl my lashes and apply mascara, and be totally fine.

Lust: What item is at the top of your list?
The Urban Decay NAKED 3 palette. I don’t even know why, since I don’t need rose/gold/pink shadows. But… but… there’s something about it. I am also dying to get back into the MAC store and get some more lipsticks.

Envy: Which makeup product/look looks great on others but not on you?
Those really bold, perfect airbrushed brows. I spent forever one night doing them on me, and I just looked ridiculous.

I hope you enjoyed this! And please fill this tag out yourself!

Thanks for tagging me, Ginger! I tag THIS DAY RIGHT NOW to fill this out next.

Let me know what your wrath products are!! I’m very curious what beauty items make other people crazy…

  1. This is such a great idea for a blog post! Thanks for talking about lip tars. I have been thinking about buying one since I’ve heard they have good staying power. I just don’t know if I need yet another lip product…haha

  2. Thanks for doing the fun. It was fun to read. I would love to try NYX products. Too bad they’re hardly anywhere to be found in the UK. I guess I’ll be bulk buying on ebay soon! 😀
    Wrath… well, there’s red lipstick, and then there’s bronzer… oh, and bold eyeshadow colours. I can’t wear any of them…

      • Hey hun, no, I can’t wear red lipstick. I love brown and plum shades, but red doesn’t suit me at all. I can make a matte red work for me, but to be honest, I don’t want to make beauty products work. I want all my make-up items to do their job without me improvising… Ah well, there’s still plenty of choice. 🙂

  3. I had the exact same situation with the lip tars! Looked everywhere for them and now that I have them, I barely reach for them/struggle to use them!
