Dirty Brushes? Clean Them!...

-
Unless you are a makeup artist, you probably have a  just few makeup brushes. Most of us don't wash our brushes daily and over time they can get pretty dirty (which is a great home for bad bacteria, which can lead to pimples and other skin disorders!) A great tip is to keep a spray bottle filled with 99% alcohol in your makeup kit. Spray your brushes with the alcohol and gently rub them in a circular motion onto a piece of paper towel. The alcohol will kill all bacteria and best of all they will dry within a minute or two, so you wont have to wait hours like you normally would after you wash them. After they are dry they are clean and ready to use!

This is also a great tip for makeup artists who need to reuse the same brushes on different clients and don't have have the time to wash them!

Who Wants Kissable Lips?...

We all know by now that its important to exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin cells, environmental debris, makeup, and dirt. Exfoliation helps slush away old dirty skin cells to make room for new healthy cells. Our lips are no exception and need the same care, especially in the approaching fall and winter months. All you need is a toothbrush (soft bristle is best) and some Vaseline. First wet your lips with a bit of water, then apply a small amount of Vaseline to your tooth brush. Starting with your top lip and gently brush your lips in circular motion going around from top lip to bottom lip and back again. Continue brushing until you start to feel your lips becoming smooth. If you notice your lips start to peel gently continue brushing. When your done wipe off the excess Vaseline with a soft face cloth. Now apply your favorite chap stick and lip stick and your lips are kissable soft. ___________________________________________________________

Sephora Moonshadow Baked Palette...

On a recent trip to my local Sephora I was introduced to their Moonshadow Baked Palette. These palettes come in two color themes: In The Nude and In The Dark. Both palettes come with 10 baked eye shadows that can be used wet or dry. I love these shadows and believe Sephora did a great job with them and the price point of $28 is well worth it. These shadows are highly pigmented, have minimal fall out, and both palettes come in great color selections for both natural and dramatic makeup looks. This palette is a great alternative to those who don't want to pay $50 dollars for Urban Decays Naked Palette . Give these shadows a try and let us know what your think! __________________________________________________________________
