About This Quiz
Let's bake! If you're thinking we're about to make a cake, cookies, or pie, you're in the wrong place! We're talking about makeup! If your mind instantly went to the powdering process, your beauty vocabulary is already trendier than most!
The beauty industry is probably one of the biggest in the world! For years, people have been trying to mask their imperfections and enhance their features. From all the products that come out of the beauty world, how well are you able to keep up?
A few decades ago, an "average" makeup kit would've probably come equipped with foundation, blush, powder, and lipstick. A makeup kit in 2018 would come with these four in addition to concealer, bronzer, highlighter, mascara, "falsies," and more! While the products tend to stay the same, it's what you do with them that makes the difference!
While you need powder to "bake," a trendy person would know that you need loose powder versus a compact! They would also know what kind of foundation to use if someone is oily in their T-zone! If this is you, you're ready for this quiz!Â
Put down your masks, primers, and fan brushes and let's find out how on trend your beauty vocabulary really is!
