Anyone who loves mineral eyeshadows as much as I do is definitely someone I want to know! I have yet to find a better blogger on the subject than Ms. Christiana Divine. This girl knows her stuff and she knows how to show it! Christiana covers the mineral world (and more) thoroughly on her site, Memoirs of a Shopping Addict. Be sure to take some time to click through her links; you’ll become a groupie like me, I promise! Get to know a little about Christiana, one of my favorite beauty bloggers…

MM: Your purse is stolen. What beauty item will you replace first?

CHRISTIANA: Truth be told, I don’t carry many beauty products with me, just my lipbalm, a mirror and maybe some lipgloss and/or lipstick. If anything it’d be my Rosebud Strawberry Lip Salve. It’s my HG lip balm, hands down. I have super dry lips and that stuff works wonders for me.

MM: What high-end beauty product are you saving your pennies for?

CHRISTIANA: I don’t really buy from high-end beauty brands. I always say, “It’s not about what brand you’re rockin’, it’s all about how you rock it.” The beauty item that I spend the most money on is my mineral foundation. I will splurge on a mineral foundation if it works really good. Other than that, It’s not the price of an item that makes me broke, it’s the quantity of items that I buy. LOL.

MM: What one hair product can you not live without?

CHRISTIANA: I don’t really use any hair products in my hair and if I do, I’m not picky about it. I’ll use whatever is laying around my bathroom. But the one thing that I CAN’T do is wash my hair WITHOUT conditioner. I don’t know how anyone can do that. If I don’t use conditioner, my hair is a frizzy/tangled mess.

MM: What color polish is on your toes right now?

CHRISTIANA: I forget the brand and the name, but it’s a deep plum shade. I don’t really paint my finger nails, but I have to do my toe nails. That’s a MUST, nasty feet is a just a no-no.

MM: What was your inspiration to blog?

CHRISTIANA: Well, I’ve always blogged because I’ve always had a passion for writing. I first started out blogging on xanga with my poetry and personal blurbs. After a while I started filling my xanga with beauty blog posts so one day I figured why not just start a blog dedicated solely to beauty. That’s basically how I ended up with my beauty blog, “Memoirs of a Shopping Addict.”

Thank you Christiana!
