The Leibster Award

Hya everyone!

Something new and exciting today - The Leibster Award! Although I have never heard of this, this thing sounds really fun! (What's up with the exclamation marks? I swear I'm not on drugs). Let's do this!

I was tagged by the lovely Sakura, who is now is traveling across Europe (I'm totally jealous, girl!) and is an amazing person overall. Check out her blog if you're looking for some quality beauty content. (and if you love Essiebutton...she's obsessed with her....just like moi!)

THE QUESTIONS: 

1. Are you a Pencil, Gel, or Liquid kinda gal?

I don't always wear eyeliner, but when I do, it's usually brown pencil because black looks really vulgar on my pale skin, and pencil is WAY easier to apply and clean up than gel and liquid liners. 

2. Do you prefer filling in with pencil or just lipstick?

I'm not really someone who actually takes time to fill in their lips with pencil. I prefer to just slap on a layer of lipstick and head out. 

3. Do you like things in tubes or juicy tubes?

I'd don't have a preference here but juicy tubes sound more fun!

4. Foundation coverage: Little, Medium, or full?

Luckily, my skin is pretty clear so I prefer no foundation at all, but I do get spots once in a while, but it takes a little to cover then. 

5. Foundation type: Matte or dewy?

Again, no preference really :/ (I'm bad at make up, aren't I?)

6. Lipstick texture: Matte or sheer?

LIPGLOSS FOR THE WIN!

7. Favorite product from MAC?

Don't own any...I'm lame.

8. What brand do you have most?

Do Lipsmackers count? Haha I have millions of those...

9. Whats your all time staple?

Lancôme Définicils Mascara haute définition. It looks very natural - like you're not even wearing mascara. (It was also a real bitch to type out..)

10. Iphones or Galaxys?

Not to sound hipster but IPHONES ALL THE WAY. 

11. Orange juice or Apple juice?

NEIHER. Grape Juice! (some people say I'm black at heart....actually, no one says that.)

5 Ways to Deal With a Directioner Friend

If you're anything like me, you are not a big fan of the band One Direction, but due to their immense popularity you just can not ignore them! Having such a great following, the band has taken over the world with their smug faces and wild hairstyles.

 My best friend is a true directioner and not a carrot (don't ask why I know what this means...), so if you are in my situation, this is a guide to help you cope with the agony you have to go through daily.

 As it happens, today is the band's 4 year anniversary (again, please don't ask how I know...) so when would be a better time to post this than today, when the fandom is at its peak?

**Disclaimer: I am, in no shape or form, trying to offend anyone. I am not a hater of the band, and all the exaggerations are used for comedic purpose only! I am completely on the fence about the band and I do not want to throw shade on it.**

LET'S GET TO IT:

 1. First and foremost: you have to resist the wild urge to pat the on the head. With a sharp beer bottle. Filled with sulfuric acid.

I know it takes a lot of effort but it is better to passively-aggressively scream into your pillow, than spend half of your life time in prison, feuding with angry red-headed Russian ladies...

2. It is hard and annoying (haha that's what she said) to get spammed by all the gifs and pictures of One Direction that you could not care less about. 

The important thing to remember is that this person is sending this because he/she thinks you are worthy of it.

Some fans worship the band and want to express their feelings to others, which means that you, my friend, are someone who the trust so feel #blessed. 

3. Be open minded. I know you might feel like it is a waste of time and that you are above it all, but look at it as an opportunity to find something new. 

You can find out a little bit more about your friend and what they enjoy. Hell, you might even discover that you bloody love the band!

4. Learn from them. Not all directioners are brainless over-emotional bimbos - many of them love the band because they genuinely respect the members (teehee) for what the do. 

And almost all individuals who "just can't" because of Harry's whimsical hair are not real directioners - they are phonies.  

Maybe you should follow their example and love someone for who they are and not just their looks?

5. Finally, have fun with them! Oh, the jolly times of annoying your directioner friends by acting snobbish and skeptical.

 Entertain yourself by critisizing the band's management and the members themselves - wait, and watch how you friend explodes with rage, trying to prove you wrong, which will not do anything because you don't care! 

The only downside is that you might actually really hurt them...But hey, this post isn't titled "How To Not Screw Up Your Friendships".

I hope this post helps you deal with your devoted friend, but if nothing works and you still want to rip them to shreds - just repeat this mantra to yourself: "I am calm and peaceful like the boundless ocean".
