It would have to be the "Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation" it's amazing if you want a light but buildable coverage. It is also very natural, and I am on my third bottle of it!.

Meet Olivia from Dolly Daydream

What is your first name?

My first name is Olivia, but I regularly get called Dolly by my family, which is why my blog is called Dolly Daydream!

What is the name of your blog?

Dolly Daydream

Which country are you from?

I am from the UK, and I live in the countryside

How would you describe your blog?

I would say that my blog is simply a mixture of me, things that I find interesting, things that I love and also things I hate. I blog about fashion, beauty and I also write lifestyle posts.

Name something your readers may not already know about you.

I’m sure there are so many things, but I just cannot think of anything! I don’t know whether many of my readers know that I have a younger sister, and very annoying one at that!

What do you enjoy most about blogging?

The feedback from my readers. I just love the interaction and all the lovely comments that I receive. I also don’t mind negative comments, even though I haven’t received one (yet)! Constructive criticism is welcome, I am always looking for help from my readers on how I can improve. So, I enjoy the interaction, without a doubt!

What is your one Holy Grail product that you would recommend?

Oh my, now we're talking! I honestly have so many. I would probably have to say Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation. I have very oily, blemish prone skin and cannot go anywhere without a little foundation on, sad but true. Dream Matte Mousse is the best I have come across for my skin type. Although I know many people don’t agree with me, and would say completely the opposite! But also a black liquid liner, I have only recently gotten into liquid liner, but now I cannot go without it. I use Maybelline Master Precise, and I love it!

What does beauty mean to you?

Happiness. I think that people that are happy and full of smiles are beautiful. I will look at someone that is happy, and as ridiculous as it may sound, they have this glow about them that makes them beautiful!

Meet Abbi from Simply-Abbi

Simply-Abbi. Creative, I know! ;)

Which country are you from?

How would you describe your blog?

Ooh, how would I? Well, my blog is just a massive mix up of everything that travels through my brain! Well, not everything but most of it haha! I post mostly about beauty, even more specially, reviews of cosmetics and skin/hair care and well, everything beauty! I mainly write reviews as I feel they can be really helpful and it gives people more of a honest idea of the product (not just what the brand has said). I also post hauls, fashion and little snippets of what goes on in my life with the occasional personal post. I even posted an advice post the other day so yeah, I guess my blog is just a big ol' mix up of everything girlie!

Name something your readers may not already know about you.

Hmm, ok, well, I hate washing my hair! Now, I know what you're thinking, "ewww" but don't worry, I still wash it regularly, I just don't enjoy it. I'm not even sure why; it just takes sooo long to wash and then dry and then style; I would never ever cut it off though!

What do you enjoy most about blogging?

Oh gosh, I just love it. I mean, the community itself is amazing, everyone involved are the nicest, most down to earth people and it's brilliant talking to people that have so much in common with you! I love feeling that I can be completely myself and I love customising my blog. After all, it's my little corner of the web. I also love knowing that I've helped people by my reviews. It's just such a fun hobby that I'm so glad I've taken up!

What is your one Holy Grail product that you would recommend?

Mascara! There is no way I could live without mascara, or leave the house for that matter! I just love it!

What does beauty mean to you?

Beauty is a fun, creative way to express your self. It's amazing what people can do with their makeup, their hair etc, it's wonderful, it really, really is.

Meet Michelle from My Pretty Paints

What is your first name?

Michelle

What is the name of your blog?

My Pretty Paints

Which country are you from?

I am from the United States: California

How would you describe your blog?

My blog is a nail art blog, but lately I've had the urge to share with people all the beautiful makeup I've come across.  So it's a little bit of all the pretty colors I work with.

Name something your readers may not already know about you.

I am married with 2 beautiful boys.

What do you enjoy most about blogging?

I enjoy being able to share what I like, which is nicely manicured and painted nails to look at.  Also reading other blogs and learning new and easy techniques.  It's an outlet where I can meet people who like what I like. 

What is your one Holy Grail product that you would recommend?

I really, really, really like OPI for Thin and Peeling Nails Top Coat.  It has seriously helped the condition of my nails.  Also taking a daily dose or 2 of calcium.  The combination of these two things have made my paper thin nails a whole lot stronger.

What does beauty mean to you?

Beauty is a way to make me feel more pretty and alive.  Most of the time I am mom.  I think I'm a good person, a beautiful person on the inside - if you will ;)  BUT with all my mom duties, I have very little time for myself.  I usually get to painting my nails or fitting in a workout at maybe 11 pm or later, once these animals are asleep.  So when I get a chance to beautify myself, it's like a breath of fresh air.  I feel better - lifted a little.  Just prettier.  And even if my husband says, it's okay babe - I think your pretty.  I still want to look  pretty, which to me is some powder, blush a little bronzer and if God grants me a few extra moments, maybe even some fake eyelashes ooooohhh, now that's pretty! :)

Ewa

Name something your readers may not already know about you.

I'm planning to get a gigantic tattoo on my back!

What do you enjoy most about blogging?

Getting to know so many people who are just as obsessed about beauty as I am. It makes me jump with joy every time I get a new comment on my blog! :)

What is your one Holy Grail product that you would recommend?

A thorough, but gentle cleanser: I like Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish, but my current obsession is Biotherm's cleansing foam!

What does beauty mean to you?

I don't need a full face of make-up to feel beautiful, but beauty products are a way of treating myself and buying and using them is something I thoroughly enjoy. It makes me angry when people say that it's a shallow hobby to have - I would never dream of judging a woman who choses not to wear make-up, so please just let me enjoy my hobby!

What does beauty mean to you?

Not exactly what beauty means to me, but one thing that I think about beauty is that it doesn't require makeup or nail polish or designer clothes to be beautiful, although those things can be fun and it's always good to treat yourself to them sometimes - what makes you feel beautiful? Treat yourself!
