How to play

Pick one or the other for each of the questions below, and copy/paste your answers in the comments. Can’t wait to see your picks! Mine are down below.

This or That: The Makeup Mini Edition

  • A set of mini eye brushes or a mini eyeshadow palette?
  • Mini tweezers or a mini kabuki brush?
  • Mini trio of Rare Beauty liquid blushes or Mini Duo of Fenty Lip Glosses?
  • Mini makeup primer or mini setting spray?
  • One box of 5 mini Laneige Lip Masks or a set of Jo Malone Fragrance Minis?
  • Mini lipsticks: yes or no?
  • Mini mascara or mini blush

A set of mini eye brushes or a mini eyeshadow palette?

I’ll take the mini eyeshadow palette, please.

Mini tweezers or a mini kabuki brush?

Mini tweezers! I’m getting hairier every single day.

Mini trio of Rare Beauty liquid blushes or Mini Duo of Fenty Lip Glosses?

Liquid blushes, because I’d use them more.

Mini makeup primer or mini setting spray?

Hmm. Probably the setting spray. Again, I’d use it more. I used to LOVE primer but now I skip it.

One box of 5 mini Laneige Lip Masks or a set of Jo Malone Fragrance Minis?

This is truly a difficult choice for me because I’d love either set. I guess I’ll go with the Lip Masks? That way I can stash jars all over the place!

Mini lipsticks: yes or no?

Nah. I never end up wearing them because the small tubes feel so awkward!

Mini mascara or mini blush?

Mini blush. Is it just me, or are those mini versions of mascaras always super dry?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    A set of mini eye brushes or a mini eyeshadow palette?
    -Mini eyeshadow. I never end up using mini eyeshadow brushes.

    Mini tweezers or a mini kabuki brush?
    – mini tweezers!

    Mini trio of Rare Beauty liquid blushes or Mini Duo of Fenty Lip Glosses?
    – neither, I don’t use those makeup products

    Mini makeup primer or mini setting spray?
    – I guess the primer (which I also don’t really use anymore) as I find setting sprays don’t do a single thing for me.

    One box of 5 mini Laneige Lip Masks or a set of Jo Malone Fragrance Minis?
    – Jo Malone fragrance minis (even though their longevity is poor) as I can’t use most lip products.

    Mini lipsticks: yes or no?
    – nope, can’t wear them anyways.

    Mini mascara or mini blush?
    – mini blush (which usually ends up lasting a long time anyways). I don’t even use those free little sample mascaras anymore. They’re always dry and not at all like their full sized version.

    A set of mini eye brushes or a mini eyeshadow palette?

    Mini brushes!

    Mini tweezers or a mini kabuki brush?

    Tweezers, seriously with the getting hairier. Those wiry chin hairs pop out of nowhere.

    Mini trio of Rare Beauty liquid blushes or Mini Duo of Fenty Lip Glosses?

    Liquid blushes! I’m not a lip gloss person.

    Mini makeup primer or mini setting spray?

    Setting spray! I don’t really use primer.

    One box of 5 mini Laneige Lip Masks or a set of Jo Malone Fragrance Minis?

    Lip masks – I haven’t liked the Jo Malone fragrances I’ve tried.

    Mini lipsticks: yes or no?

    They’re fun!

    Mini mascara or mini blush?

    Mini mascara

    A set of mini eye brushes or a mini eyeshadow palette? I’ll take the eyeshadow palette. Those mini brushes that sometimes c0me in palettes are worthless to me because I have a large moveable lid area and brow bone area and need full-sized brushes to get a smooth and even application.

    Mini tweezers or a mini kabuki brush? Mini tweezers like the ones in my first aide kit would come in handy.

    Mini trio of Rare Beauty liquid blushes or Mini Duo of Fenty Lip Glosses? I don’t wear liquid blush so I guess I’ll take the Fente glosses although I’d undoubtedly gift them to my teenage niece.

    Mini makeup primer or mini setting spray. I’ll take the primer so long as it’s Tatcha’s.

    One box of 5 mini Laneige Lip Masks or a set of Jo Malone Fragrance Minis? That’s an easy choice—lip masks for the win!

    Mini lipsticks: yes or no? No. There are very few brands I can wear and they don’t make mini versions. If they did, it would be a fun way to try out new colors.

    Mini mascara or mini blush? I really like mini Chanel mascaras for traveling.
