It’s that time again.

The annual MegFowler.com Beauty Survey!

I can call it annual because this is the second time we’re doing it. In two years.

That’s annual, right? YEAH.

It was great fun to read the responses last year for two reasons:

1. Some of you are product freaks like me, so I discovered some VERY fun new things, and…
2. Some of you just mocked the hell out of the whole thing, and I enjoyed that, too.

So, do tell:

1. Your all-time favourite shampoo and conditioner:
2. Your all-time favourite face wash:
3. Your all-time favourite moisturizer (face):
4. Your all-time favourite moisturizer (body):
5. Your all-time favourite sunscreen (face):
6. Your all-time favourite sunscreen (body):
7. Your all-time favourite fragrance:
8. Your all-time favourite masque/face treatment:
9. Your all-time favourite shower gel/body wash:
10. Your all-time favourite foundation:
11. Your all-time favourite bronzer:
12. Your all-time favourite mascara:
13. Your all-time favourite blush:
14. Your all-time favourite lipstick:
15. Your all-time favourite lipgloss:
16. Your all-time favourite hairspray:
17. Your all-time favourite hair product:
18. Any products you love that don’t fit the list:

If you have a question about someone else’s recommendation, you can ask it down there, and hopefully they’ll come back to tell you about it. If I give them a cookie.

And yes, men are welcome, too… just skip the makeup questions. Or, you know… don’t.

GO!

fifteen things that are true of me.

1. I never, ever finish a pint of ice cream. I leave it in the freezer until it frosts over like the hinterlands, and toss it out half-full.

2. I don’t cough like a normal person. It’s more of a seal bark. I’ve had the same cough since I was a baby, and it used to scare the life out of people when baby-birdesque wee Meg would let out her horrible, sharp hacks.

3. I have a lazy eye that is only evident when I’m dead tired or incredibly nervous. This is a potentially nightmarish combo if I don’t sleep the night before a big meeting or a date. (Hahaha. I just said “date” like that’s an everyday occurrence, when in reality… hello, Halley’s Comet.)

4. I’ve never made risotto, yet I have tons of recipes for risotto. I even give out my risotto recipes. Apparently, I am a risotto fraud. Or I suffer from risotto anxiety. I’m pretty sure I’m insane.

5. I have to set time limits on eyebrow tweezing, or I become obsessive.

6. I once performed “I Will Survive” in a shark costume. Then I wanted to wear the costume all the time. Even while sitting at a desk reading email, or having a cup of coffee. For some reason, the shark costume made me feel completely at ease in the world. I don’t know what that means.

7. I spell the following words wrong the first time every damn time: tomorrow; irrelevant; irresistible; commitment; homemade; judgment; and conscious.

8. The less preparation I do for a speech or toast, the better. If I bring notes, I’ll spend the entire time trying to remember my point. No notes? Smooth as silk.

9. I don’t like doing word games, like crosswords or fill-ins. I do, however, love it when other people do crosswords and ask me for my guesses.

10. I have zero desire to go back to high school. None. Nada. But my first two years of university were GOLD. I’d do them again in a heartbeat.

11. I literally want to run up to men in the street and groom them. Not like a monkey or anything, but just CUT YOUR HAIR or WASH YOUR FACE or TRIM YOUR NOSE AND EAR FOLIAGE or YOUR PANTS ARE BEYOND VIOLATING or I JUST SNAGGED YOUR EYEBROW ON MY SHIRT. I honestly believe most men are really attractive in some way. I have a broad concept of masculine beauty (ha! pun!) But I think a ton of them sell it out by ignoring five minute personal chores.

12. I never use coupons.

13. Whenever I put on running shoes, I feel like bouncing up and down. Boing. Boing. It’s an irresistible urge.

14. I have thousands of lists yet unwritten.

Update:

15. I like to publish lists one item short. See comments below!
