Makeup Trivia Quiz
When we posted our Makeup Trivia Quiz two three days back, we had no idea it would prove to be so much fun. But it did, so much so that before we could create another quiz Devie, one of our IMBB jailmates, sent another quiz for you guys to crack. Of course some people who got less marks in the last quiz are determined to Google for answers this time.
And some have been so wily as to stay off the quiz altogether so as not to post their scores. So everyone is requested to attempt this quiz ‘honestly’ and post his/her score. This quiz is about makeup trends in other countries so you might have to make some educated guess in some questions.
Remember, it’s all fun.

Are you ready to test your beauty smarts? The following questions all have to do with a specific region and how it’s population relations to the notion of beauty. A test for the true beautista. Even if you do not know the answers to these questions, make an inspired guess!
One more trivia before we sign off. This one is from fashion industry and would interests those in the business of mergers and takeovers.
In June 1998, the fashion group Prada acquired 9.5% stake in the Gucci group. Analysts began to speculate that it was attempting a take over of the Gucci group. The proposition seemed unlikely, however, because Prada was at the time still a small company and was in debt. However, Prada sold its shares to Louis Vuitton chairman Bernard Arnault in January 1998 for a profit of US$140 million. Louis Vuitton was in fact attempting a take over of Gucci. Gucci, however, managed to fend off the takeover (after a fierce legal battle) by selling a 45 % stake to industrialist François Pinault.

Anyways 6/10, all guess work!!
30% of people in Iraq & Pakistan are quite rich !! but they don’t have qualified doctors to carry out such a job in their own countries. They probably might be going abroad to do it !!

@ Vinitha and Radhika
It may sound gross, but according to ayurveda, amaroli or ingesting your own urine, is a beneficial practice.
http://www.yogamag.net/archives/1981/ajan81/amar.shtml
I’m brahmin, and in some religious ceremonies I have seen people ingest gow-mutra, or in other words cow urine.
I probably will never drink my or anyone else’s urine, but it’s interesting to think about a question that my psych professor posed to our class:
Why is it once you spit out salivia, you find it gross to put it back in your mouth? Wasn’t it a part of you two seconds ago? ?:-)
I guess the same applies to urine! But just the thought of ingesting it draws an immediate visceral reaction from me! :sick:
6/10 !! loving these quizzes

Wait This time “i” will create a quiz…
“An ancient beauty tradition from this country, which is still practiced today..” WHO DRINKS THAT IN INDIA?????????????????????????????????????????????
http://sawaal.ibibo.com/alternative-medicine/morarji-desai-attributed-his-longevityagility-resilience-auto-urine-therapyplease-throw-some-light-on-least-discussed-alternative-therapy-193356.html
Morarji Desai…beauty ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) Anywaysss..I just want to put this purely personal disclaimer/information here:
I don’t know anybody who does this, and I personally thinks its ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww….and a whole lot of people I know would find it ewwwwwwwwwwwww
I DO NOT want people asking me where I am from……Ohhhh you are from India…and then start wondering about my beverage preferences ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Please feel free to delete this comment if it seems offensive to anyone.
i know.. its just gross.. but then a lot of other countries did it anciently.. i think..
Radhika nothing offensive here, but I would just like to add that gaumutra or cow’s urine is supposed to have medicinal properties and hence could be used for cleansing purpose…it is also know to be quite effective in terminal diseases like throat cancer…and this is something I can even say from the first-hand exp of someone I knw
Well with terminal cancer, I am not going to laugh at anything that might work or even seem to work…
ekjactly!!!! and that was the only Q I got wrong!!
You got 9 correct?? Had cornflakes in morning kya??
:cute: :cute: :cute: :shy: :shy:
Morarji Desai.. so i guessed India!:P:P
who drinks that in india….someone whose name starts with “R” maybe….resides in bangalore…. :snicker: :snicker: :snicker: :snicker: :snicker: :snicker: :snicker: :snicker:
che che , I am rather happy with my outer beauty only. No doubt I got that one wrong.
Apart from Rads….urine therapy was practiced by Morarji Desai….who let the first stream pass off and starting collecting the second stream onwards to use a tonic :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: ……he lived on to 99/100….Small quiz for you all:…..How many years do you think Rads is going to live?
1. 99
2. 177.
3. 121.
Prize: Unclaimed Ginseng creme. :snicker: :snicker:
Excuse me Jomol..you were the one who walking all over IMBB carrying canfuls of the precious liquid and sprinkling it on people…just follow your nose and I am sure you would find the appropriate post.
:rotfl: :rotfl:
:giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
My dear Rads….please remember that I was carrying can fuls of yellow liquid :can: :can: :can: :can: :can: :can: :can: :can: and sprinkled a lot of it on you also. I also offered to send canfuls sent across to you……yaad karo ji :evilgrin:

Ancient times maybe Ikky..but still practiced today and a beauty tradition…I don’t know..its pretty easy for people to mistake it to mean its something commonly followed by most Indians
