About This Quiz

People in this world have different sides to their personalities. Some act more lovey-dovey around their significant other while putting on a more serious face around their family. Or, you've got some folks who are super silly around their friends, but more "closed off" in the dating world. But oftentimes, we're able to discern someone's true personality through nonverbal aspects of life, such as body language or the way a person decorates their home. But today, we're going to focus on your beauty routine and what that says about the real you!

A beauty routine is a list of steps that someone goes through to look and feel more attractive. It might be extensive, requiring over 10 steps of moisturizing and prepping the skin for makeup. Or, it could be as short as simply washing your face and applying a coat of lip balm. But what's the reward for completing such a beauty routine every single day? Whether it's to impress your crush at work or because you're high-maintenance about your health and hygiene, we think that you deserve something extra special for Valentine's Day. And that's a unique gift that won't require dating or going through a heartbreak. Just take this "beauty-ful" quiz so we can find out more about your personality and your daily routine!
