Do you have a posting schedule?
I try to post every 2-4 days! I might post 2 or 3 days in a row. Or I might not post for 5 days. I post when I can!
You can follow me on Twitter for updates and follow ZombieGoddess Beauty Bloglovin' to have posts sent straight to your inbox when I post!
Where did your Username/Blog Name come from?
ZombieGoddessxi is my gamer tag so I made it my YouTube Channel name since I'd mostly be playing games. (I still don't upload to my channel. I'm worse than Dan & Phil) So that turned into being my handle on all social media so it would be easier to find me in searches.
I decided to have my blog name be under the same umbrella so everything would match up nicely. I decided on "ZombieGoddess Beauty" because when I choose the name I mainly wrote about beauty and I thought "ZombieGoddessxi" sounded a little boring for a blog name.
Why did you start a blog?
I really enjoyed reading Zoella, Tanya Burr, and Fleur DeForce's blogs, as well as My Newest Addiction. I have always really like writing and I've gotten more and more and more into makeup over the years and one day in April of 2015 I decided I wanted to share my Top 10 Under $10 products. I decided to create a blog to post on it and fell in love.
What camera do you use to take your photos?
I use the Canon T5 with an 18-55mm lens, a 55-250mm lens or a 50mm 1.8 lens. The mm of the lens will be listed at the very bottom of every post under "Photo Credit." However, I almost always use the 18-55.
Some of the cover photos are images from stock photo sites and edited by me in Photoshop.
What program do you use to edit your photos?
Adobe Photoshop Elements 14
I made all of my own banners and graphics and logos. I made the social media buttons on the sidebar and my blog header and the page title headers.
I can make you graphics too! Check it out here.
What program do you use to make your banners, logos, and graphics?
Adobe Photoshop Elements 14. All of the graphics you see on my blog are made in PS Elements 14.
Who designed/put your blog together?
I design and edit my blog myself. My blog is made from the Blogger simple template with a lot of different code. It isn't even the same as the template anymore. I've added so much though code and add-ons that it is all my own now.
Favorite Beauty Bloggers?
There are so many. I'll just name a few or we'd be here all day. My Newest Addiction, Ms. Adventures in Makeup, Bloomin' Rouge, MissLMakeup, and Kate's World of Beauty.

Again so many to list we'd be here all day. Here are a few of my faves. Zoe Sugg AKA Zoella, Tati AKA GlamLifeGuru, Tanya Burr, Fleur DeForce, Estée Lalonde, Sam and Nic from Pixiwoo, and Louise AKA SprinkleofGlitter. Most of these lovely ladies also have blogs which I love. I will link them below.

What got you into makeup?
I really loved watching Zoella and Tanya Burr and Tati (AKA GlamLifeGuru) and a ton of the other lovely ladies on YouTube. I started to get into makeup when I was 15. I watched their videos and learned a lot.
Then I started researching on my own and that's when I found a lot of my favorite bloggers. They inspired me to start blogging. I wanted to share the products I fall in love with and share what I've learned from these ladies. I wanted to create my own space to talk about makeup and share what I've learned and new things as I learn them.
