Some women have a passion for makeup and love everything about it while others find it troublesome and a pain. Others just swear it off completely. By answering our simple questions below, we aim to find out how attractive you are based on your ability to prove your vast (or lack of) beauty knowledge. Today, it seems like there are as many beauty blogs and vlogs out there as there are choices of lip gloss in the world. That means that people have much more information available to them these days when it comes to beauty advice.

Since we live in the age of life hacks, many hosts of beauty channels like to incorporate "beauty hacks" into their usual content. These little tips and tricks can be very useful in getting ready quicker and making our looks that much more polished and presentable.
Now, it's time to get ready! But no mirrors or actual makeup required... just makeup know-how. Put on your favorite "getting ready" playlist and let's put your beauty skills to the test.
