Question of the Week – Do you ever fall into a beauty rut? If so, what types of things help to pull you out of it?
Answer – Sometimes I get into the habit of using the same shades of makeup over and over. Luckily, the time soon comes when I need to try new colors and products because I’m testing them out for the blog. So, that opens my eyes to new things, that I may not have tried on my own!

I have trust issues now, because so many previously cruelty-free companies have wavered on their CF status over the past year or so. So, I refuse to invest too heavily in one brand — I spread my products out and won’t own more than a few at a time from any given company. Just in case another company decides to go over to the dark side and start selling in China, I don’t want to own 20 eyeshadows or whatever from that company that I then have to make a decision about what to do with.
The good thing about this though (and the reason I bring it up in response to this post) is, since I purposely spread my purchases over a wide variety of different brands, it opens me up to trying out new and different things from brands I might not have otherwise looked at. 🙂
