Beauty Ice Breakers

[danielledanielle]

BIC is the place to talk about beauty!  There are lots of fun threads, from mask to makeup (and even photo A Year of Beauty- Photography Challenge ) challenges all the way to pet paradise.  In my early days, I kinda wanted to talk to everyone, but I didn't know what to talk about, I just knew I loved makeup and had found my people.

With threads like Monthly Favorites: May 2025 Edition! Community Favorite Concealers: Tag your Holy Grails!  , Beauty Pet Peeves 2 I feel the most comfortable when chiming in because I can talk about makeup.  I figured, hey, let's open up some discourse amongst ourselves; a thread with getting to know you questions could be kind of fun.  (And, I still get to talk about makeup.)

photo cred: HelloGiggles

I'll post a question and a phrase with a blank and change it weekly? periodically. Answer one or both.

Yes, more questions. The first one stumped me for a while @danielledanielle. If it were a skincare collab, it would also take me a while, but in order to narrow it down. 😅 But after much thought ... 

If Sephora did a collaboration with you, what makeup product(s) would it be?

A makeup-skincare hybrid, along the lines of Tower 28 Beauty SunnyDays Skin Tint with Mineral Zinc SPF 30 or CLE Cosmetics CCC Cream:

My current makeup aesthetic is ________.

Better than bare / quick-and-easy no-makeup makeup.

Re: Makeup Challenge of the Week 2021/2022/2023

Is the challenge that got me out of my comfort zone and trying looks I wouldn't normally create. I am learning about my skills, makeup collection and what products I like (but thought I would never wear).

100 Days of Lipstick Challenge 

I have a lot of Lipstick and love learning about it through others.

Cheek Challenge Winter 2024: Mocktail Makeup

I love a good theme and using the makeup I have trying to achieve it.

Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge 

So far this challenge has helped me shop my stash more, destash and try to refine my collection. I have learned a lot already though others and about the themes

Makeup Madness Challenge 2024 – Round 2: Brushes vs. Sponges Is fun to vote and hear other's opinions.

Empties - V2 

I am now making notes and trying to remember what I like/don't like

What are you wearing today Pt2 

I like to pop in and see everyone looks and sometimes post

Show Me Your Nails 2.0 

Although I have not been on much lately, I have found so much inspiration here. Everyone is positive, encouraging and talented!

They are:

What are you wearing today Pt2 

100 Shades of Eyeshadow Challenge 

100 Days of Lipstick Challenge 

💖 100 Days of Eyeliner Challenge 🌈 

The monthly hauls thread of course 💝 this month's being March Madness Beauty Hauls 2024 

And Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge 

[danielledanielle]

@CynthieLu, you too with the multiple threads addresses?  🤣. Guess that means I gotta start hanging out in more threads 😁🤷🏽‍♀️

[sister13]

Thread Address: 

Probably 

Makeup Challenge of the Week 2021/2022/2023/2024 

and the Monthly Hauls threads are my most visited! 

As for brand, I’m pretty equal opportunity too, but maybe Danessa Myricks? @danielledanielle 

[danielledanielle]

@sister13💯 accurate

[itsfi]

Yaaaay, new questions @danielledanielle!!! And fabulous ones, too! Thank you, thank you!

What's your "thread address", meaning which thread do you post/check often?

• Monthly Favorites
• Hauls (though the combination of my low/no buy, other priorities and some technical difficulties logging in during this first quarter have had me spending less time posting or checking)
• Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge
• Pan It! - 2024 Challenge
• A Year of Beauty- Photography Challenge - I go back to this one frequently, to delve a little deeper into a particular lesson @Samtian talked about or to study some of the photos posted that are just mesmerizing.
• and for this and next month, Sephora Savings Event 2024 Shopping Advice and Makeup Madness Challenge 2024 - the latter thread is one of my hands down favorite threads on BIC, in part because I really loved all of the actual NCAA March Madness extravaganza back in the day. That @TeamBIC put together a makeup edit? Brilliant! 👏

A brand (or brands if you wanna) I think people in BIC associate me with is _____.

Hmmm, I have a handful of brands I purchase from often, like Diptyque, Dior, & Rhode but I don't know if people on BIC associate me with them. I feel maybe more products than brand, but since the question focuses on the most frequent brand association, that would probably be ... wait for it ...
