The Wednesday Question

Since I'm working on my annual round-up right now (will be up soon), I have to ask:

Which beauty brand/retailer's Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are you looking forward to the most this year?

The Wednesday Question (Drugstore Dupe Edition)

The Wednesday Question

The Wednesday Question

What was the last beauty product you purchased due to hype that truly lived up to the raves?  

The Wednesday Question

A little late today, but here's your Wednesday Question (I can't wait to see your responses!):

What is your "sweat pants" lip color? 

In other words, what's the lip color you reach for when you want something that's low maintenance, reliable, and comfy?

The Wednesday Question

If you could only use one lipstick, one perfume, and one nail color for the rest of 2015, which three products would you choose?

The Wednesday Question

Quick! Tell me your current favorite drugstore mascara, lip balm, and face powder.

My answer: L'Oreal Butterfly topped with L'Oreal Miss Manga (I tried this combo on the suggestion of a few of you and I love it. If you own both of these mascaras and you're not quite happy with either one, try them together; it will blow your mind!). For lip balm, I'm currently reaching for my Softlips + Hello Kitty lip balm in the flavor Apple, and for face powder I'm currently loving an oldie but goodie: NYC Smooth Skin loose face powder (which I found at Dollar Tree for, of course, $1). 

The Wednesday Question

Quick! Name THREE (just three) products that you really want right now. 

My answer: a bottle of Tocca Isabel, a Maybelline Color Blur in I'm Blushing (that shade is always sold out in the displays in my area), and a bottle of Dollish Polish in the shade I Just Want Them to Know They Didn't Break Me (from her John Hughes Tribute collection). Because you know Pretty in Pink is my favorite of all John Hughes movies.

The Wednesday Question

It's been forever since I did a Wednesday Question and I'm so sad for letting that go for so long (it's the longest-running feature on my blog!). So here we go:

Name a well-loved beauty brand that you personally have yet to try.

My answer would have to be Makeup Geek, but I actually placed my first order for some shadow singles during that sale a few weeks ago. I can't wait to finally dig in and see what all the buzz is about! 

The Wednesday Question (Beauty App Edition)

Do you use any beauty-related apps on your smartphone?

If so, what are some of your favorites? 

I know there are a ton of beauty-related apps out there (I've heard from several of you polish fanatics who use apps to help manage and keep track of your nail polish collections), so I would absolutely LOVE to hear about which apps you have downloaded, which ones work for you, and why!

The Wednesday Question

I'm sorry to make the Wednesday Question about my blog content (again!) but I was able to fix the issue I was having with the service I use for creating my sightings maps, so we're back in business again! But before I make the sightings map for the Wet n Wild Silver Lake collection, I wanted to hear from you to make sure that you still want a map for it. I know that the bronzer/highlight/blush compacts are still just popping in stores now, but I'm pretty sure the eyeshadows and polishes are kind of wiped out at this point. 

So this week's question:

Do you want a sightings map for the Wet n Wild Silver Lake collection? Or would you rather have one for the California Dreaming collection? Or one for each? 

Thanks so much, and thank you again to everyone who took the time to vote in the poll a few weeks ago. Your feedback is absolutely invaluable and I have been working very hard behind the scenes to bring you more product reviews very soon (as in, there's one coming tonight!).

PS: If you're new to the blog and do not know what the interactive sightings maps are, you can CLICK HERE to check out a previous map. 

The Wednesday Question (Reader Poll - Please Vote!)

When it comes to the content here on Nouveau Cheap, a few times a year I try to check in with you, to find out what YOU like to see here. Yesterday I posted a message in the Nouveau Cheap Facebook community letting everyone know that more product reviews are on the way (something I'm trying to do more of in 2015) and that prompted me to make a poll here on the blog. I noticed that many members of the Facebook community like my deal/sale alerts (some seem to prefer them over product reviews), so I thought it was a great time to "check the temperature" here, so to speak!

If you could take a moment to vote in the poll below, I would so appreciate it. I'd love to get a general sense of your favorite types of posts. Thanks in advance!
