Liebster Blog Awards

I was recently tagged by Katy from Makeup By Katy G and  Ellis from Ellis Rose. Their blogs are right up my street, I'm sure they'll appreciate it if you gave their blogs a visit! I've done this tag before, back in the days when I myself was a fairly new blogger. However, as I've grown I've started doing tags less and less, but I figured since I'd been reelected and there are lots of new blogs, I'd give this one a whirl again!

The aim of the Libester blog award as I'm sure you'll know is to get you're favourite new or less well-known blogs names out their.

The rules:

1. Each blogger should answer the questions the tagger has set for you.

2. Choose 11 new bloggers to pass the award onto and link them in your post.

3. Create 11 new questions for the chosen bloggers.

4. Go back to their page and tell them about the award.

5. Each blogger should post 11 Random facts about themselves.

6. No tag-backs!

I went for Ellis' questions purely because I'd be here all day doing 22!
1. What was the first ever make up product you bought?

The orange-iest No7 bronzer you've ever seen.

2. Have you attended any blogger events? What was your favourite?

I haven't! I live in probably the most unfashionable, country town in the middle of nowhere so it's pretty difficult to go to Blogger events. That and the fact I'm 16!

3. What is your favourite thing about blogging?

I'd say talking to lots of different people. I've met so many amazing friends through blogging and I love talking to you all on Twitter and reading comments

4. Do you like to make any DIY products? If so, what's your favourite?

Face masks definitely. There are so many combinations you can do, they're especially good for matching to your own skin. I have bad skin allergies ect. so its good to know exactly what I'm putting on my face too.

5. What is your favourite blush?

I love the Sleek Blush By 3 palette in 'Lace', the middle shade is my favourite!

6. Why did you start blogging?

2nd June 2011!

7. What products are worth the hype that you use on a daily basis?

I'd say Smashbox Photoflawless Light Primer, Nars Laguna Bronzer and Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer.

8. What are you favourite blogs?

Ahhhh this is such a hard one! You can find all my favourite blogs by clicking on the 'past featured bloggers' in my sidebar and 'Inspiration' tab above.

9. How do you juggle blogging with daily life?

School all day and blog all night. No, I'm kidding. A lot of the time I'll take more than 1 posts worth of photos at a time as it can be super time consuming. Another day I'll file, select and edit the photos and another day I'll write up the post. It's definitely a three+ day process for me.

10. What are your favourite spring summer essentials?

I'd say a good moisturiser to keep skin hydrated and a primer or setting spray to keep your makeup on all day!

11. What is your blog URL named after?

A book! (of sorts)
