Hey lovelies! Today I had the wonderful surprise of being nominated for a "Liebster Award" by Jen from Blush and Fuss! I love fellow Redditor Bloggers so I was really excited when I found out someone actually knew my blog existed. Haha!
"For those of you wondering what the Liebster Award is, its essentially an award given within our network of blogs in recognition of new and rising bloggers. The Liebster Award (‘Liebster’ meaning friend in German) also acts as a great way to improve networking and to make some friends within the beauty blogging community. In order to accept and carry on the award you must:
1. You must link back to the person who nominated you.
2. You must answer the 11 questions given by the person who nominated you.
3. You pick 11 nominees with under 200 followers (approximately) to answer your questions.
4. You cannot nominate the person who nominated you.
5. You must tell the nominees that they have been nominated by you."
I actually don't think I know 11 beauty bloggers with less than 200 followers but I will do my best! That said, here are the question's Jen is having me answer.

I actually don't think I know 11 beauty bloggers with less than 200 followers but I will do my best! That said, here are the question's Jen is having me answer.
1) When did you first start wearing makeup?
I've been wearing makeup as long as I can remember! I grew up as a dancer which meant big crazy stage makeup. I was 13 though when I started wearing makeup out of the house and 17 when I got really into it.
2) How did you choose your blog name?
I chose Cat Lady Cosmetics because I'm pretty known for my crazy cat love. I love these things so much I started a subreddit called Cats & Cosmetics with some of my closest friends. <3
3) Any pets?
If you didn't guess cats, ... I don't know. You might be clueless. I have two cats named Phileas Fogg and Amelia Earhart. They are adorable.

4) What is your favorite product?
Ever? Of all time?! I don't think I have just one. I guess Kryolan Aquacolor in Black because I buy it all the time. I just prefer it over any other kind of liner.

5) What is your skincare routine?
Right now it's all Lush! I work for them so that makes sense. At night I use Ultrabland Facial Cleanser, Eau Roma Toner Water, and Celestial Facial Moisturizer. In the morning I use Let the Good Times Roll Facial Cleanser (3 times a week), Eau Roma Toner Water, Enchanted Eye Cream, and Gorgeous Facial Moisturizer. Before Lush, I used all Dermalogica.

6) What would you buy with $500 just for makeup?
First I would buy me some foundation. A fancy one for myself and some for my kit - ideally Tarte Amazonian Clay. I would make a couple 15 pan MAC palettes - one for brights and one for neutrals. And I don't know. I actively avoid looking at things I can't afford.

7) What are your other hobbies aside from makeup?
Baking, Cooking, Reading, Dancing, Redditing, Playing Gears of War with my boyfriend.

I've honestly never thought about it. I'm not very good at girly stuff like that.
