As a huge Teen Mom fan (I've never missed an episode), excited was an understatement. Chelsea has always been a favorite of mine because of what an amazing Mom she seems like and on a personal level, I can relate to her relationship woes with Aubree's father.
Plus, I've always thought she was beautiful with great style, and since she is currently enrolled at Black Hills Beauty College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where she studies the art of make-up
application and hair design, I couldn't wait to chat all things hair and beauty with her.
In case you are wondering, I'm happy to report that Chelsea was just as sweet and down to earth as I expected. In fact, I totally felt like her and I were long lost besties just chatting away. You could even hear little Aubree running around in the background. Speaking of Aubree, is she not the cutest ever?
Enough of my rambling. Check out our interview below and let me know what you think in the comments!

Did you always know you wanted to be involved
in beauty/hair? What made you decide to go to beauty school?
My mom went to beauty
school and she did it for a little while when I was younger. And when I was growing up, our house had a room that was like a salon. I was always in there playing with my friends' hair so I've always known this is what I wanted to do.
You are running late and only have time to put
on three make-up items before leaving the house, what are they and why?
Mascara because you always
need mascara, a little powder or bronzer and lipstick or chapstick. I feel like that covers a little of everything.
I have long hair as do you, so how do
you keep yours healthy? Any tricks of the trade learned in beauty school?
Before beauty school I never used
thermal sprays, but ever since I started school, I learned how important thermal
sprays are. I use Kenra Thermal Styling Spray, which you
can get at salons.
I always curl
my hair, and the products I use are mousse, a
spray leave-in conditioner, thermal spray and I finish with a silkening gloss.
Favorite hair product you swear by?
There is this stuff that I use that makes my hair really big. It’s called Dust It by Osis. You put a little bit in at the roots and then you tease it. I love it!
*Editors Note: We started talking about how we both have fine hair and I told her it is impossible for me to tease my hair because of this. She swears Dust It is a miracle, so I am ordering it online here and I will report back. It has great reviews online!
How many times a week you wash your hair?

How many times a week you wash your hair?
My hair is really fine and if I don’t wash it often, it looks greasy so I wash it every day or every other day. I have used the Kenra Dry Shampoo between washes.
It’s so hard! But, I
always wake up early before her to get ready and then once I'm ready, I'll get her
ready. We have a great routine down. If I try to get ready while she's awake, it's so hard because she loves to play in my
make-up.
I've used Revlon Colorstay Foundation for forever and my favorite mascaras are by L'oreal. I just try to find the mascara with the thick brushes on the end because I like my eyelashes really big!
Do you use pencil, automatic or liquid liner? What is your favorite brand?
I use pencil and automatic. I am obsessed with all MAC make-up, so their eyeliner is probably my fave.
Name a makeup crime that you hate.
I hate this but I know I’m guilty of it sometimes. I hate when people have foundation
lines all down their chin. I hate it, but I know I’ve been guilty of it!
What celebrity beauty style do you admire the most?

What celebrity beauty style do you admire the most?
For hair I admire Lauren Conrad because she does a lot of how-tos on her blog that I like to follow. I
love the Kardashian girls for make-up.

Do you feel like
you have to get "done up" before filming? Do you have stylists that help you or
is what we see hair and make-up wise done all by you?
I wish we had people who did our hair and make-up but they
definitely don’t! At first, when I first
started filming, I would always try to get ready, but now I don’t always and I
always regret it if I don't.
There you have it bargainistas. My Guiliana Rancic "red carpet moment". Except I was sitting on my couch in sweats on a cell phone. Story of my life.
So, what do you think? Do you love Chelsea as much as me? I cannot wait to try out the Dust It hair product she recommended. Huge thank you to Chelsea for taking the time to chat beauty with me!
