Alex: What's In My Bag

Tell us about you!
Hello! I’m Go-To’s chief-donut-connoisseur, Alex. Wait, no, I’m part of the customer service team, bringing you virtual smiles and helpful tips.

Describe your skin type and relationship with skin care/makeup/beauty.
I fall into the ‘normal’ skin type category and see skin care as a necessity, but have a fairly carefree attitude towards beauty. (Lazy? Me?! How dare yo-yeah ok that’s fair.) I believe in taking care of my skin, and aim to use products that are natural, good quality, and non-irritating.

What’s the best beauty advice you’ve ever got?
Your. Face. Stops. At. Your. Boobs. This goes for skin care AND beauty.

Describe your go-to beauty look.
Moisturised and glowy skin, big, bold lashes, wavy hair (when I can convince someone to help me do it), and a glossy lip. I’m a bit of a less-is-more gal (again, lazy).

Have you got any on-the-go skin hacks?
Carry hand cream with you, everywhere! Our hands cop a beating and show signs of ageing pretty quickly. I’ve always got a tube of Super Handy with me.

Alright. Spill. (Literally.) What are the things that are always in your bag?
Inika Long Lash Mascara
Recreation Beauty Natural Perfume
M.A.C Powder Blush
Inika Eyeliner
Kester Black Lipstick
AirPods
Fairy Bread Purse (Practical! Sequins! FAIRY BREAD!)
Super Handy

If you had to just keep one of those beauty products, what would it be and why?
Mascara, no question. I’m pale and blonde, so I love to be able to add a flick of contrasting colour to my face.
