What primer do you use before applying eyeshadow/foundation?
For eyeshadows I like to use Shadow Insurance by Too Faced. Another one of my favourites is Urban decay primer potion. For foundation, I use my good ol' moisturiser...Simple's Light Moisturiser.

What are the best (affordable) fake eyelashes you've used?
Definitely the ones from the Pound Land! "Really?!?!", I hear you say. They come in different shapes and textures, and at a pound each I'm extremely happy with the quality! Use them with Duo Eyelash Adhesive for best results.

What are the best (affordable) alternative to mac brushes?
Boots No7 have a really affordable range of good quality brushes, which are quite comparable to the MAC ones!

Do you have a palette with loads of colours, if so what is it called?

I have this one palette that I purchased from ebay about a year ago. It's called the 120 Pro palette. It has so many different colours. It's a staple item in my train case, and clients always love it!

What mascara do you recommend for longer and fuller lashes?
Maybelline's Collosal.

What do you use to clean your brushes?
A bit of Olive oil and Baby Shampoo goes a long way!

What face wash/creams would you recommend?
Ones without unnecessary perfume or colour. Simple's my favourite brand for skincare!

Is there a way to stop eyeliner/lipgloss from fading really quickly?
Apply some eyeshadow with a brush, preferably the same colour as your eyeliner, over your eyeliner. It helps keep it in place. For lips, always blot with a tissue after first application, then reapply product. Long lasting results!
