    If your Sugar Plum Fairy curates an awesome set of items for you, would you rather they be wrapped individually, or be a huge smorgasbord that you can look at all at once? Would you prefer to open each gift slowly and methodically or will it be ribbons and bows and paper flying as you tear into it? Oooh tough question. Please pleas please do whatever is easiest for you, but I do love unwrapping things individually.

First of all, hi. My name is Ella Elise (look to Elfster for my last name, I don't know if I'm allowed to put it here!) Right now I am addicted to indie nail polishes, whipped soaps, and perfumed oils from Haus of Gloi and CocoaPink (if you haven't heard of those brands, don't worry- neither had I until I joined the indie forum). I LOVE MONOGRAMMED THINGS. Sephora will always be my first and best love. I plan on going way overboard with the girl I get (or "elfie" as I like to say) because I love this sort of thing! And anyway, I just wanted to say hi and thank you for taking the time to read all of this!)
Style descriptions! Brief is better.

    Makeup  With eyeshadows, I'm afraid I'm boring- I like neutral shades- brown, taupe. The Naked Palettes are clearly a favorite! I like pinky-nude lips, but I also go for brighter colors when they're more transparent. I'm all about my long eye-lashes and have tons of mascara to enhance them even more.
    Hair I have blonde hair that is medium length. I'm no good at curling it, I wish I was :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
    Nails Nails are where I go wild! I love bright colors (asp blues and lavenders) and LOVE sparkle. Indie nail polish brands are my favorite!
    Skincare (face/neck) I have a system I've been using for years. I have more than I will ever need already!
    Bodycare (every where else) *NOTE: (i MIGHT PUT THIS ELSEWHERE TOO)- WHILE i LOVE FRAGRANCE IN SOAPS AND IN GENERAL, I CAN'T USE FRAGRANT LOTIONS OF ANY KIND DUE TO MY PSORIASIS :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> *
    Home I'm designed my home now! I'm all about a modern look. I'm basically copying Jeff Lewis's home (Google his bedroom- I'm seriously copying it to a heavy degree, lol!) 

More advanced questions:

    Solve for X: I am wearing too much X, and I DO NOT CARE! NAIL POLISHES!!! LIPPIES! 
    Cruelty-free or vegan. Important, must-have, nice, don't care? Nice, but not a necessity. 
    You just won a $50 gift card to your favorite beauty store. Which store is it, and what will you buy?  Usually I would say Sephora, and it would probably be a palette of some kind, but right now I'm lusting over so many polishes, it would probably be Etsy for their indie brands or FemmeFatale because they have a huge collection of indie nail polishes as well!
    Please list any subscription boxes you receive, along with anything you may covet from recent boxes. Glossy Box (my fave!)- I just got two with gorgeous Tarte lippies and haircare I'll actually use. I also get Birchbox, Ipsy, Julep (though I recently canceled- again, I'm now all about the indie!), and occasionally Memebox and Pop Sugar.
    Assuming they are separately packaged and clearly labeled, what are your feelings on prepared-by-sender beauty items? Unsealed samples? Items from the bulk foods section? If sender wants to make me something, I would love that! Unsealed samples I would only be okay with if it's nail polish or shadow or blush. No bulk foods :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
    Assuming the same dollar amount is spent, would you prefer several mini items, or one or two full-sized items? Minis with brands that carry it!! I wish we had a higher spending limit, because I know I'm going to end up spending at least $70 on my elfie (I LOVE TO GIVE AND RECEIVE GIFTS!)

Brand-and-color-specific time!

    What is your all-time favorite beauty item and why? This is too hard. I think last year's Paul and Joe holiday set, it was so catterific! Either my personalized tube of Guerlain lipstick, last year's Tarte holiday set (Gorgeous Getaways), or when I first discovered FRESH LIP BALM!! THANK THE HEAVENS FOR THAT! Also, a few perfumes I love- Viktor & Rolf BonBon & Flowerbomb, Kat Von D Saint, Oriental Lace.
    What specific product(s) are you lusting after? Feel free to link to a wishlist with particulars! Nail polishes!! I linked them on my Elfster list- the higher on the list, the more I covet!
    What make-up items do you use every day? concealer, shadow base (my eyelids are THIN so they at least need a base of neutral color to hide the redness and dark circles), neutral eye shadow, mascara, balm, blush. On big-night days, I wear eye-shadow other than a cover-up base coat, lipstick, eye liner, high lighter.
    What are your holy grail items? Holy crap? HG is FRESH LIP BALMS! ESP THE FRESH ADVANCED VERSION. Crows Toes is my HG nail polish company! Holy crap (as in crap, this stuff is bad!) is Pop, CK, and the throw-away items you get in sample boxes like foils (I HATE FOILS- I HAVE SOOOO MANY ALREADY!)
    What one item/product are you interested in, but just have't gotten around to trying? Indie whipped soaps (linked on my elfster!)

General product section, aka not brand/color specific

    What one product can you just not get enough of? Fresh lip balm, lippies, SPARKLY OR THERMAL NAIL POLISH!
    What one product do you actually use more than any other? What runs out quickest in your make-up drawer? Again, Fresh lip balm. Concealer for my dark circles (i have more concealer than I'll ever need!) Pinky-nude lippies!
    What product(s) can you absolutely not use at all for reasons other than allergies/sensitivities listed in the background section (e.g., I can't use foot scrubbers because my feet are too ticklish)? Fragranced body lotions, super bright shadow (work won't allow it, same as blue/green/yellow "not the norm" lippies)
    What items (makeup/skincare/tool) do you feel are missing from your routine? Hair curler
    What tools/products are you looking to add, even if they are not missing? Nail polishes! 
    What beauty-related product(s) do you just not want to receive? NO makeup like concealer or foundation, mascara, foils (i have SO MANY), shower gel (I prefer whipped soaps and LUSH-like bath products), hair products. 

Brands:

    What brand do you have more products from than any other? Any particular reason? Tarte and Urban Decay, because I'm an eye shadow palette hoarder!!
    What brand(s) have you been wanting to try but haven't gotten around to? Wow- not many or ANY I can think of, except more LUSH bath bombs.
    What brand(s) do you not want? I mean, the only brands I really don't like are CK, Pop, ULTA's brand. I'm open, though I've definitely put a wide range of the things I really desire on my Elfster list! (And I feel the list makes a lot of these questions redundant TBH! :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)

I dont' have any allergies and neither does anyone in my home. Also, no dietary restrictions. I don't care either way if I get notified that my package is on it's way or not!

Ok. The survey thingy. I may edit out a few things.

Survey time:

Style descriptions! Brief is better.

Makeup I love any and all makeup! For lips I tend to go with pinks (from bubblegum to mauve to hot pink!) or berry shades (from light berry to really deep berries, I love them all). I am usually the type that goes for super bright eyeshadows, particularly really shimmery shades of teal/aqua and purple...but have been trying to be more open to neutrals! Really ANYTHING goes when it comes to eye makeup. I LOVE blush. I realized recently I need more powdered blush since most of mine are liquid/cream types. I will try any blush, since sometimes I am surprised by what I end up liking!
Hair Typically, my hair is shoulder length or shorter and dark brown or black. Stick straight. I don't do a lot of styling with curling or flat irons, but do blow dry it atleast a little and sometimes fully with a round brush. I LOVE fun barettes, headbands etc. Any colors, any styles, I just love 'em.
Nails I'm an anything goes type when it comes to my nails. I will try anything! Of all my polishes and stuff, I love fun glitters the most! My nails are typically fairly short, but I still do a lot with them.
Skincare (face/neck) I am a bit of a skincare noob. I recently started getting Birchbox, so I am now trying out a lot of products. My skin is acne prone and I have a lot of redness, so those are my main concerns. I love face masks!
Bodycare (every where else) I love any kind of body wash or scrub! It's one of those things where I am not picky and will use whatever I have on hand. I like lotions and body butters. Particularly ones that are floral or fruity smelling!
Home I tend to like modern decor with a mix of kitschy stuff. Colorwise, I love yellows, oranges and teal/aquas.

More advanced questions:

Solve for X: I am wearing too much X, and I DO NOT CARE! Blush!!! It's my new obsession.
Cruelty-free or vegan. Important, must-have, nice, don't care? I don't care
You just won a $50 gift card to your favorite beauty store. Which store is it, and what will you buy? Ulta.

If your Sugar Plum Fairy curates an awesome set of items for you, would you rather they be wrapped individually, or be a huge smorgasbord that you can look at all at once? Would you prefer to open each gift slowly and methodically or will it be ribbons and bows and paper flying as you tear into it? Simple is fine, but if you love to wrap, that’s fine too!
It's a hot, sunny 90-degree summer day and you have no obligation to be anywhere in particular. Where are you and what are you doing? If I can’t be on a boat, then I’d be in air conditioning napping on the couch.

ALLERGIES!! Please list any allergies to products, foods, scents, etc., that you or anyone living in your household has! Allergic to benzyol peroxide, common ingredient in many acne skincare items

Dietary restrictions: Do you or anyone in your household have any food-related restrictions/sensitivities, etc? Would you prefer not to receive food items? Food would be great! No restrictions

Skin allergies/sensitivities: Do you or anyone in your household have any skin allergies/sensitivities not already listed that your Sugar Plum Fairy should know about (e.g., wool, metals in jewelry, etc)? Do you avoid silicone, sulfates, etc? I think I'm sensitive to nickel in jewelry, but I've only noticed it to be a problem in earrings.

Would you like to get a heads-up from a Fairy that your package is on its way, or would you prefer its delivery to be a complete surprise? Either is fine! Whatever the sender wants, but please tell a mod it's on its way.

Basic background information:

Makeup – winged eyeliner, nude eyeshadow, and red/pink lipstick

Hair – black hair, not dyed, straight, no styling, and air dried

Nails – always done, painted about two times a week

Bodycare (every where else) – lotion after showers

Home – nothing. I live with parents because it's cheaper and they won't let me decorate at all. I like do postcards though.

More advanced questions:

Solve for X: I am wearing too much eyeliner, and I DO NOT CARE!

Cruelty-free or vegan. Important, must-have, nice, don't care? No preference. Only if it's important to the sender.

Plus Pout Lip from Julep in red or magenta, tea mask and Cindy Lou Manizer from Nov Birchbox. I've also never received a Memebox, but I would be interested in try anything. I'm not picky XD

Assuming they are separately packaged and clearly labeled, what are your feelings on prepared-by-sender beauty items? Unsealed samples? Items from the bulk foods section? no problem!

Assuming the same dollar amount is spent, would you prefer several mini items, or one or two full-sized items? Either

Brand-and-color-specific time!

What make-up items do you use every day? Eyeliner, eyeshadow, face and eye primer, bb creme or foundation, and lipstick

I don't really have HG items, but items I particularly find effective include Origins Checks & Balances facewash, this Gold Snail face mask my sister got me, Kat Von D ink eyeliner along with Eyeko, and Revlon Colorstay Ultimate liquid lipstick which is the only thing that stays on me through a meal.

What tools/products are you looking to add, even if they are not missing? Lipstick T_T

I'm allergic to mushrooms and to inexpensive metals.

Would you like to get a heads-up from a Fairy that your package is on its way, or would you prefer its delivery to be a complete surprise? Surprise!

Style descriptions! Brief is better.
    Makeup: Nothing crazy.  Usually colored eyeshadow with plain lips.
    Hair: Very thick, long, curly hair.  I don't color my hair, but it's natural color is light brunette with honey highlights.
    Nails: Bare nails, just a top coat, or a french tip.
    Skincare (face/neck): I typically just use Clean and Clear facial wipes (the white ones), and I occasionally use an exfoliator.
    Bodycare (every where else): 3 for $1 bar soap?  And I apply lotion to the bottoms of my feet nightly
    Home: It's very small.  And messy.

More advanced questions:
    Solve for X: I am wearing too much blush, and I DO NOT CARE! I have pink cheeks without it, but I buy and wear it anyways!
    Cruelty-free or vegan. Important, must-have, nice, don't care? Nice
    You just won a $50 gift card to your favorite beauty store. Which store is it, and what will you buy?  Ulta, I'd probably save it until a sale or nice GWP, but I'd most likely buy eyeshadow or blush.  Or maybe my makeup wipes if I'm getting low.
    Please list any subscription boxes you receive, along with anything you may covet from recent boxes.  I'm currently doing Birchbox, and I recently ended my Ipsy sub.  I also did 1 month of Pop Sugar Must Have (April 2014).  Nothing that I've coveted too much.  I was interested in the Lollitint mini that Ipsy sent out a few months ago.
    Assuming they are separately packaged and clearly labeled, what are your feelings on prepared-by-sender beauty items? Unsealed samples? Items from the bulk foods section?  Fine by me, but I can't think of anything I would want from the bulk foods section (unless there's something you think I simply must try).
    Assuming the same dollar amount is spent, would you prefer several mini items, or one or two full-sized items?  Mini's are so much fun!

Brand-and-color-specific time!
    What is your all-time favorite beauty item and why? Eyeshadows, there's so many colors out there.  I love purples and greens.  I have blue eyes, so I find blue eyeshadow to be a bit harder to pull off.
    What specific product(s) are you lusting after? Feel free to link to a wishlist with particulars! Urban Decay's Shadow box.  Benefit's Lollitint (I would never use up a full size, but I love the size of the mini).  Lorac Pro 1 + 2.  Be sure to check my elfster wishlist, I'm sure I'll have a lot more on there.
    What make-up items do you use every day? If I'm going out, I don't leave before I apply concealer and mascara.  Usually I wear eyeshadow and blush as well.
    What are your holy grail items? Holy crap?  Jesse's Girl Waterproof eyeliner is a HG for me.  I can't think of any busts ATM.
    What one item/product are you interested in, but just have't gotten around to trying?  A LOT of stuff.  Um, but just one. . . .  How about, Stila eyeshadows.  I've heard great things about them, haven't tried them.

General product section, aka not brand/color specific
    What one product can you just not get enough of? Eyeshadow.
    What one product do you actually use more than any other? What runs out quickest in your make-up drawer?  Makeup wipes and mascara is stuff that I always seem to be replacing.  I don't really run out of a lot of stuff.
    What product(s) can you absolutely not use at all for reasons other than allergies/sensitivities listed in the background section (e.g., I can't use foot scrubbers because my feet are too ticklish)?  I don't use pencil eyeliners too often, because I like liquid liners best and would only use a pencil in my waterline, but I wear contacts and they say not to line your waterline while wearing contacts.
    What items (makeup/skincare/tool) do you feel are missing from your routine? Brow stuff, hair straigthener.
    What tools/products are you looking to add, even if they are not missing? I don't have a lot of brushes, I just have the Ecotools day to night set plus an eyeliner brush and foundation brush.
    What beauty-related product(s) do you just not want to receive? Bronzer, self tanner, and false eyelashes.

Brands:
    What brand do you have more products from than any other? Any particular reason? I have a lot of Mac and Benefit.  Mac because it was the first makeup I ever had and didn't realize there were a lot of other options.  Benefit because I like the tints, and I usually pick up a set that has the mini's in them, thus giving me a lot of benefit products.
    What brand(s) have you been wanting to try but haven't gotten around to?  The balm, Tarte (I've only tried the bb cream so far), and Nars.  I really haven't tried a lot of brands; my collection is pretty small.
    What brand(s) do you not want? Pop beauty and Be a Bombshell.

Colors (not specific shades):
    Answer quick like a bunny! Favorite color? Purple
    Favorite color combination? Either pink and black or red and black, or (insert bright color) and black/very dark blue
    Color scheme of your home/room, either in reality or your imagination There really isn't a color scheme. . .  The curtains on my canopy bed are maroon with gold comforter.  Actually now that I think about it, almost every room has a splash of maroon.
    What one color (not brand/product specific) do you use more than any other? Why? Purples, greens, and blues
    Color(s) to avoid? Orange and yellows

Scents
    What's your favorite perfume/wearable scent of all time? What's your favorite perfume/wearable scent to wear in the summer? Loveswept by Philosophy
    What is the fragrance of your favorite home fragrance (e.g., candle, diffuser)? I don't really use any home fragrance's
    Describe your favorite scents/notes, without naming a specific perfume or fragrance. Flowery, citrus, and vanilla.  Or most food scents (just not spice smelling).
    Without naming a specific perfume or fragrance, what are your favorite perfume companies? Favorite home fragrance companies? No favorites yet
    What form of perfume do you prefer (oil, alcohol-based, spray, open bottle, rollerball)? Spray or rollerball

    What form of home fragrance do you prefer (candle, diffuser, air freshener, plug-in)? I think I would prefer air freshener or plug-in.  But I really use them.  If I want a room to smell pretty, I usually grab one of my cheaper perfumes and give it a few squirts around the room.
    Other than perfume/fragrance oils, what is your favorite type of toiletry/scented item? Body butters and lotions.
    Scent(s)/notes(s) to avoid? Oriental, Woody, and lavendar.

And finally (at least for the beauty section), Yes/No?
    Foils Yes
    Deluxe Samples Yes
    Hair Oil Yes
    Face Oil Maybe
    Perfume Yes
    Sunblock/Sunscreen No
    Self-tanner/tanning wipes No

And extra non-makeup-related questions!
    What designs/designers do you prefer (please limit to top 3) I don't really follow designers. . .  Um kind of a classic/casual look is what I typically go for.
    List any public wishlists (Amazon, etsy, Sephora), swap lists and/or Tumbler/Pinterest entries your Sugar Plum Fairy should consult. Here's my trade list, maybe as a hint of what I wouldn't like?  https://www.makeuptalk.com/f/topic/133304-megan27ist-trade-list/
    Is your box all about you? Or would you like to see things in your box for your significant other/spouse, kid(s), pet(s), whatever? If the latter, please list age/gender/species. I have 2 dogs :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
    If your Sugar Plum Fairy curates an awesome set of items for you, would you rather they be wrapped individually, or be a huge smorgasbord that you can look at all at once? Would you prefer to open each gift slowly and methodically or will it be ribbons and bows and paper flying as you tear into it? I'd love them to be wrapped individually!  Beware that I love ripping into the paper, but if it's extra cute I'll probably be more cautious so that I might be able to duplicate it.
    It's a hot, sunny 90-degree summer day and you have no obligation to be anywhere in particular. Where are you and what are you doing? I'm at home doing as little as possible.  Probably on the computer dreaming of a white Christmas.

And advanced fun stuff:
    What do you do in your spare time? Are there any hobby-related items you would like?  I spend far too much time on the computer.  But often times I'm watching a show on my computer and either knitting or crocheting.
    Fandoms, favorite TV shows, movies, books, music, Hogwarts house, etc. I pretty much only listen to country music and Christmas songs.  Some shows that I like are Star Trek (DS9 was my favorite), Reign, Magnum PI. . .  I'm also into superheros (Green Arrow, Flash, Avengers, Captain America, Thor, Spiderman).  And Disney, I've been really into Disney stuff lately.
    What non-beauty item(s) would send you over the moon?  I don't have any of the newer animated Disney movies.  I think the newest animated Disney movie I have is Finding Nemo (excluding Toy Story 3).  A polar bear figurine.  Dainty Necklaces or earrings.  I can't think of much!  I am SO bad at making lists of things I want.
    Pirates or ninjas? Pirates
    Zombies: Yay or nay? Nay
    Disney! Favorite movie, hero, villain? Favorite Movie: Toy Story.  Favorite princess: Rapunzel.  I don't really have a favorite hero or villain.
    Describe three things decorating your living space.  A sewing machine, candy, and lots of yarn.

Yes/no, the extras division:
    Virtual gifts (ecerts/gift certs/eBooks) Sure
    Hand-made items (from your godparent or purchased) Sure
    Candles No thanks, I have no place to put them or safely burn them.
    Tarts Assuming this is the pastry, I'll pass
    Reed Diffusers No thanks
    Incense No
    Other home fragrance (say, room spray or scented rocks) Preferably not
    Local Items Sure
    Mix CD Sure
    Home Items (and what types) Sure
    Food Items (and what types) Sure, preferably not homemade, but a recipe that I could do myself?  Yes!
    Beverages (and what types) Sure, but I don't really drink coffee or tea (unless it's something you swear by, then I'd be willing to try it).  I only have a regular coffee pot though

    Puzzle Books -- words, numbers, pictures Sure!

I haven't done a secret Santa like this before, but if you have any questions, I'm assuming you could contact some elves and they'd pass it along, and I'd be happy to answer!  Thanks for being my Santa!
