Cherry Link Love for #BBloggers: Your Earliest Make Up Memory


Hi all, we're back following a quick hiatus last week and this time we've a little change to the set up to level the playing field for all. 

This week we're talking memories, specifically your earliest make up memory, it's always something I love to hear about from peeps that are as passionate about their products as I am. 

I'll kick off with mine, had to be when I was 12 or 13 and beginning to experiment with foundations until I discovered the Max Factor Pan Stick - what a glorious invention that was. I proceeded to cover my entire visage in this industrial strength goop until my Dad staged an intervention. 

Telling me that he couldn't hug me tightly with a face full of makeup...

My Dad: blurring the lines between hugs and headlocks since time immemorial but you know what? It worked. I eased up on the slap and my skin thanked him for it, even if I never did...

So tell me, what's your earliest make up memory?  - You can leave a comment below with your memory, whether it be nicking your Mam's lippie or colouring your cheeks with chalk dust... 

Be sure to leave a link to your site too so we can all visit, I reckon that'll be easier for everyone to be involved this week, ja? 

Looking forward to reading 'em!

Aloha, beauty bloggers and lovers alike. Here we are with this week's Cherry Link Love and we're talking about something very close to my penny pinching heart - DUPES!

There's also an upcoming post this week about my favourite MAC shadow dupes but for now I'm dying to see your bargainous buys. Remember, if you don't have a post to hand about the topic you can still comment with your blog link and a dupe suggestion to share in the Stat Love!
