Introduction

Hi everyone!

So this is my first post and I'm more than a little nervous. Before I start posting swatches and tutorials and all the other goodies, I feel it is a good time to introduce myself. So I'm going to interview myself  and hopefully give you a better idea who I am and what I have to offer through this site.

So here goes...

Name

Minkie (This is a nickname but I like it more than my real name)

Work

I work in engineering, a profession that has little to do with beauty. As such, I need an outlet for my beauty obsession which is growing by the day.

Preferences

Brands

Everything I own is paid for with my hard earned money. So I will only buy products worth the cash. The quality of a product is more important than the brand name.

Nars, Dior, Shiseido, Benefit, Maybelline, Rimmel, NYC, YSL, Aveda.

Beauty outlook

I believe in beauty that is both subtle yet eye catching. Classic and elegant. Simplicity can often yield the most stunning results!

Why do you want to write a beauty blog?

Beauty has always been a passion for me. Seeing so many wonderful make up gurus on YouTube and other places has inspired me to try and share my own experiences with you all.

What do you have to offer that isn't already available in other beauty blogs ?

There are so many blogs out there but very few that are catered towards those who are only just starting to play with make up or have recently developed an interest in the subject.

I want to prove them with some easy to understand tips and tricks that will help create beautiful looks  with limited tools/ skills

I am also some one who tends skim through large texts trying filter out the most important bits. So expect my reviews to be in two parts. The first which will be short and to the point, and second which will be much more in depth.

What sort of information will you post?

Detailed reviews, tutorials, personalized recommendations, my favorite products. I already have a lot of ideas but would love to hear your suggestions.

If you've read this far, then I thank you for you effort. I plan to have about 2-3 posts every weeks. So please come back soon to read my first beauty post.
