So I thought it would be fun to host a little series on my blog called “Beauty Chat”. I love talking about beauty products on the blog but even more than that, I love chatting with friends about their favorite products as well.
I’ve picked a couple people, who are also bloggers, to have a little beauty chat with. Each week someone new will be featured, and the series will continue for a few fridays this summer.
I’d love to hear from you about who you’d like me to interview too! Leave a comment below this post with any of your favorite bloggers that you’d like me to have a beauty chat with!
Today, we are starting with Cara of the blog Maskcara. Tell me you’ve been to her site before. She’s fantastic! She shares easy to follow tutorials, tips and tricks along with little snippets of her life. I particularly like her Makeover Monday posts!
Let’s dive right into it!
Kate: What is the most loved item in your make up bag?
Cara: My HAC pack for sure because it’s always my go-to but I created it so I’m sure I’m biased! My favorite non-Maskcara item would be YSL Cool Guava Sheer Candy Lip color. It’s such a gorgeous fresh pink!
Kate: You find a $50 gift card to sephora on the street-what do you buy?
Cara: Haha, this is easy because I always seem to have at least 3 items in my virtual Sephora shopping cart AT ALL TIMES!
Right now I’m dying for Laura Mericer’s eye basics primer/base coat in Flax. It’s the prettiest soft warm pearl to wear alone or under shadow.
Cara: In the heat of summer here in the desert I’ve been sticking to the good old high bun but when I’m really wanting to look my prettiest I always go for the Twirl Curl. It’s a gorgeous curl that last for DAYS.
Kate: If you have one, what is your biggest hair regret?
Cara: Going from black to blonde in one day! I thought it was great at first but then my hair just broke off…after a few months I had only half my hair left! Word to the wise, drastic hair lightening should be done GRADUALLY!
Kate: Okay, is there a beauty trend you would like to see die?
Cara: Matte fuchsia lips. I loved them when they first became popular I feel like it’s . I’m all about glossy and vampy lips lately.
Kate: What is one makeup trick you’d like to master?
Cara: Winged liner. I can do it but it’s going to take me a LOOONG time to get it perfect!
Kate: Drugstore or high end products?
Cara: If I could only pick one I’d have to go with high end, because there are way more options and I don’t mind splurging on makeup (I’d dress in a paper bag before I stopped buying makeup!) But there are so many great buys from the drugstore as well.
Kate: What do you never leave the house without?
Cara: Pants? Haha, I leave the house without a stitch of makeup and hair done far too often! I need to work on that!
Kate: Is there a hair technique you’d like to master?
Cara: French braid. I feel like amazing braids have taken over my pinterest and instagram feed and I am always gaga over how gorgeous they look…but when I do them on myself…it’s a hot mess!
Yeah, I actually highly doubt that her french braids are a hot mess, but we are our own worst critic, aren’t we?
Cara, thanks so much for the interview! And THANKS for such a helpful blog!
(pardon the spacing/formating issues in this post)
I’m new to your blog and enjoy it so much! You put a lot of work into teaching us simple techniques that make a big difference. I have already tried some of the “poof” buns and they came out well. I have especially enjoyed making easy changes that keeps my hair off my face as we have been experiencing an unusual stretch of humid weather.
Enjoy your Summer.
Blessings.
I love seeing other beauty bloggers favorites! It helps me to know what to look for in stores like Sephora, which can get a little overwhelming sometimes. I can’t wait to see who else you feature!
This is so cool! I’m looking at this post on my iPhone and not sure if she’s already been mentioned. But it would be awesome to read your chat with Estée from Essiebutton.
Lisa Eldridge!!!! I adore her tutorials–and her lovely British dialect. 🙂 I enjoy Cara’s blog as well and was referred to it by you, Kate! Thanks to you both for the amazing guidance!
Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple
ipad and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with
someone!
How about Alli of Makeup by Alli? I love her friendly, down to earth attitude. Not to mention she is GORGEOUS and very naturally talented. She doesn’t blog but she does vlog. That’s my vote.
Please collab with Essiebutton, Amarixe, and Tati from Glamlife Guru. They are all amazing!!!! THis was a really fun idea, I am new to Cara and instantly love her!
I would like to see you chat with your sister Lauren or Rebecca from Better Life Bags – she is not a beauty blogger, but a crazy busy mom and business lady and I would love to hear her perspective on makeup/beauty since it’s not something she often talks about on the blog and comes from a slightly different perspective!
How did I not know about “Maskara”? Wow – just spent several minutes there and am now debating whether to try Wen again! 🙂
Looking forward to more beauty chats!!!
Kate, this is so neat to see you interview Cara. I have subscribed to your youtube channel probably a year ago, and about half a year ago found Cara. The videos and blogs from you two are mostly the only ones I’ve been looking at when it comes to makeup and hair 🙂 So this was totally cool! 🙂

But there are some people that the news sites listed
road isn’t smooth. An anecdote in the news feature story needs
to be written from your third person as the narrator.
I have been exploring for a bit for any high-quality articles or weblog posts on this kind of house .
Exploring in Yahoo I ultimately stumbled upon this web site.
Studying this info So i’m glad to express that I’ve a very good uncanny feeling I discovered exactly what I
needed. I most without a doubt will make certain to don?t overlook
this web site and give it a glance on a constant basis.
After the glue is dry, cut web site along with all the foil to keep a similar shapes.
Having a pal or a colleague that can guide you through difficult situations might help in getting solutions to problems in a very short span.

Of course, not fixing these could bring about loss
of pressure inside system and more costs for your water than you’d like.
Agitation of the clothing is the most important part with the
washing cycle because that is how your clothing meets the detergent.
This issue retains me quite confused so I’ve put developing a tree
on hold for now. Yet, the amazing things it might do with the touch of the button.
