I’d ask her how to pronounce her last name 🙂 I feel like I’m never saying it right.

I would ask her how I am supposed to know which makeup brush to use when. I know the obvious blush brush and a basic eyeshadow but beyond that I’m not sure.

I’d ask Sonia about basic, everyday, wearable eyeshadow looks for professionals. I’m always in search of good ideas to wear to work, and there’s a lot of makeup inspiration out there that’s unfortunately not suitable for a conservative office. I love eye makeup, though, and want to play up mine!

I would ask her what the best products from a drugstore for highlighting and contouring would be.

I LOVE SK eye makeup remover! I have tears (happy/sad/angry/something in my eye) every day of my life an can’t wear mascara that isn’t waterproof. SK’s eye makeup remove is the only one I’ve found that doesn’t leave me greasy? I don’t get a rash from it (I have sensitive skin) and it take off everything I put on. I love it! My question for SK would be why is it so darned hard to find! I live in a pretty big city and sometimes there isn’t a single bottle anywhere in the entire metro! I get a little panicky!

I would ask what 3 brushes she thinks every woman should have and how to use them!

I would ask her what inspired her to create her own line?

I would want to know what could be done so that her products are in stock in the store, the shelves are always empty at my Target. I know that’s a good thing, but I don’t like to buy makeup online without seeing it first.
