Makeup, Nail Polish, Skin Care And More

It's easy to rationalize splurging on a makeup brush. I always reach for this Napoleon Perdis brush as the shape is perfect for both uses and the bristles don't splay (when they go all higgledy-piggledy) while still being soft on your skin. The makeup brushes were sent to me for review. My skin does not look as airbrushed as it does with a beautyblender, but it looks more smooth than it does with a buffing brush that exfoliates dead skin.

If you already have a shadow on, you're not going to want to get mascara on your lid; you're going to be afraid to hit the roots of your lashes.” For perfect application, Rinaldi says its all about the wiggle: push your mascara wand to the base, lift and wiggle up. Then, after you've applied and eyeshadow to your lids, you can apply that second coat.

If you're inspired by these sorts of eye looks but don't want to break that bank buying every eye brush available, the Showpo set is perfect. It's lovely and soft which is great but it picks up no product at all from my bourjois compact blush, and even when blending softer blushes in to my cheeks it just sheds black plasticty hairs all over my face which is a pig.

Isabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn't blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Not a beauty guru, just another girl who loves and enjoys makeup and the art of it. Results may vary.

Remember that it's very important to apply a facial moisturizer before applying your makeup, especially if you have dry skin, because the makeup stick emphasizes the dryness and brushes the skin flakes. You can also select from different products for your eyes, be they kajals, eyelines, mascaras and eyeshadows that you can buy online.
