Ask Lee: My A’s to your Q’s.

Lately, I’ve been thinking of fun ways we could get to know each other even better. Introducing… Ask Me Anything! I know that it’s my favorite type of content to read, and I hope it’s yours too!

These questions came straight from you guys via the @iamcrystalee & @beautyleebar Instagram. I don’t know about you, but I love a good Q&A. Those short, bite-sized interviews are always my favorite pieces to read in magazines or on blogs.

Of course I’ll also have tons of other great beauty, fashion, food, and fitness posts too. Stay tuned for some of my favorite kinda healthy recipes, makeup tutorials, an amazing monthly giveaway, and more. So without further ado, here are my answers to your fun questions…

Ëś

If you could live in a different country, where would it be?

I would definitely want to live in Greece. I’ve never been but I had dreams where I visited and lived in Greece. The food, the arts, the history, and the passion. It’s a goal of mine to travel there

What’s a weird phobia you have?

Oh, I have many. I can’t stand when fruits have spots on them, the fruits look sick, like it has a disease or something. Mom said it’s just ripe but it bugs the shit out of me. I won’t eat or touch them.

 What’s your earliest memory?

My earliest memory might be a time where I was in New York at my old adopted mom hair salon shop in the back hanging with a friend. It was probably in the late 90s or early 2000s. I just remember laughing and playing around with my friend. The salon was fun.

If you could give your younger self one piece of advice, what would it be?

Just one?! Hmm. Since I’m only 21 and I’m still learning and growing, I’d say to cherish the feeling of having nothing to worry about and enjoy more time with family. I would tell my younger self I’m beautiful and to love myself more. That I’m enough, I’m a gem. I’d also tell myself to stick to my goals for the things I love and to see it through.

If you could go anywhere with anyone, who would you bring and where would you go?

Iceland, Greenland, Morocco, Italy, Spain, Europe and Greece are top on my list right now. I’d bring my mom.

What futuristic item do you wish your clothing or accessories could do?

This isn’t clothing or accessory related but I would definitely benefit from something that simultaneously took off all my make up, brushed my teeth and brushed my hair so right when I get home I could get straight into bed and not worry about a thing. Clearly I’m a tad bit lazy. OH well.

If you had to eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?

This is so hard. If calories and healthiness didn’t matter, I think it’d be pasta, burger, oatmeal, eggplant parmesan and sweet tea.  I’m getting hungry all of the sudden.

What’s your favorite holiday?

MY BIRTHDAY. Obviously. Christmas follows very close behind it though.

What’s one of your favorite parts being a woman?

Having the capacity to spread femininity, strength and compassion when other can’t is a beautiful thing. I admire all the women in my life who hold themselves so elegantly but with fierce resilience. I love being a woman. We kick ass. Don’t worry men, I still love you too. 

One make up product you can’t walk out the door without?

ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS CLEAR BROW GEL or THE TINTED BROW GEL, I literally use it all the time. But also my two other beauty needs when I leave are Maybelline Baby Lips (lip balm) and sunscreen. I go most days only wearing that. It’s important to give your skin a break from make up!
