My new favorite makeup brush! Andre Lorent Baby Buki

Best Foundation Brush - Premium, Vegan Fibers. Rose Gold Short Handle Design By Andre Lorent

Not only is this an amazing brush, but it's under twenty bucks!

About the Product

• Your foundation brush sets the canvas for everything else. So doesn't it make sense for you to use the best brush you can find for under $100? That's what many refer to when they describe Andre Lorent's flat kabuki brush to friends -- the best brush you'll get without breaking the bank.
• From famous broadway stars to makeup brush artists and all woman in between - they rely on Andre Lorent's LuxeFibersTM to easily and perfectly apply their foundation every time. Finally, you too can achieve that "airbrushed" look effortlessly.
• Dense enough to get the job done quick - yet soft enough to feel as if you're brushing your cheek against a furry, fuzzy teddy bear. The best of both worlds! This brush is satisfying to hold and built to last for years.
• Shedding? Nope. That's something cheaper brushes are known for. Vegan friendly? Of course! Plus it works great for any type of base - including cream, creme, lotion foundation and powdered minerals.
• Our quality is only equaled by our client care. We are real people who are only a click away to get in touch with - one of the co-founders will read any correspondence you may send in - we believe one of the biggest reasons our clients refer so many others to us is because of the personal touch we have in addition to the professional touch these brushes provide.

Is it weird to like my #andrelorent #makeupbrush so much that it has a nickname? I call it Sir Reginald Fluffybottom. I'm not joking. I'm gonna be so sad when this #lancome Photogenic powder is all gone, it's discontinued and what they came out with to replace it isn't nearly as good. #bbloggers #makeuptools #makeup

I am gonna have babies with this kabuki yachiyo brush!

Kabuki Yachiyo Brush, Premium 100% Goat Hair, Hand Spun Wisteria Handle, Perfect Kabuki Brush for Defining Facial Features I now use this brush every single day! As a beauty blogger, I've easily got over a hundred brushes and this is HONESTLY the first time I was so blown away from my first use that it earned daily use. I'm extremely pale and with this brush I can do perfect facial contouring that doesn't make me look like a drag queen. It's dense enough to not drop powder but soft enough to blend smoothly. It feels incredible and luxe and looks like something that would be used by a geisha.......

About the Product

XMJPS Professional 15 Pcs Makeup Brushes Set Powder Foundation Eyeshadow Eyeliner Lip Brush Tool (Black-Silver)



i was really impressed by these brushes, I assumed that for the price they'd be merely serviceable, but instead they are GREAT! These have become my go to daily brushes. They have a good hand feel with a good heft and are sturdily made. They don't shed and are super soft. They're dense so you get a good amount on your brush and they hold onto powders, even my mineral shadows don't have much fallout with these. The ferrule isn't poking out like on some cheap brushes, I've paid this much for a single brush that wasn't this well made. Seriously, even at double the cost these would be a steal.

7 Piece Professional Cosmetic Makeup Brush Brushes Set Make Up Eye Shadow Blush Brush Cosmetic Kit with Pouch Bag


I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE the red ones, but I got the purple ones for my girlypants.

• Hair Material:super thin Synthetic fiber.
• Handle Material:solid natural wood handle.

While I do think calling these professional quality is an exaggeration, they ARE perfect for travel or for those just starting out with makeup. i got these with a friend in mind for her birthday- she's a makeup novice and I recently gifted her with a bunch of cosmetics only to realize she had no way to actually use any of it. This kit has everything you need to get started including a great variety of shadow brushes. I was impressed with the sponge applicator included; normally I throw those things away, but this is a thick sponge that feels like the material that Beauty Blenders are made of. The carrying case makes it incredibly convenient to take on the road and it's small enough to tuck into your purse for touchups. I might need to get one for me for my purse, cause I'm coveting this one :-) I LOVE the tons of colors available, it's that kind of touch that impresses me- maybe I'm a raccoon, but I like to have a pop of color! The brushes are super soft and I like that the shadow brushes are still firm enough that they aren't going to spill shadow everywhere. All in all, these are a fantastic value and you certainly can't beat the price.

Got these adorable #makeupbrushes for a friend's birthday.

WOWZERS! I have found a latex free makeup blender that is pennies on the dollar of a Beauty Blender!

I have used a Beauty Blender for years and LOVE the flawless look you get, but not the not-so-flawless price. If you haven't used Makeup Blender Sponges before, you don't know what you're missing. You need less than half of the foundation for coverage so you look cleaner and lighter and your makeup stays fresh longer. I've tried numerous dupes and unfortunately they're usually so hard, so I was in shock at how this feels and applies so exactly like those overpriced (but unfortunately super effective) big name sponges. These clean easily and I've gotten a lot of use out of mine, it hasn't fallen apart or started to harden. It's a good idea to replace these every 3 months no matter how often you clean them, and at this price no bloodletting is involved! 

I have LOVE for #makeup blenders! #bbloggers #wantable #peacock #earrings

Marching In The Beauty Army Products - Fiafini, Control Corrective, Apothoderm, Aquolina, Egyptian Magic, Pssssst!

  is $12 a month with the option to skip any month. What makes them different from most sample subscriptions is that you get to choose which 6 samples you want. There's generally a mix of standard packettes, deluxe sample and travel sizes (my Psssst is the size can sold in stores in the travel section) and often a full sized item. As I state in the video, I picked what I genuinely wanted to try, not necessarily the best DOLLAR value items available to me.







Fiafini Skincare Divine Hydration Marula Oil Moisturizer is fantastic- it moisturizes AND firms skin and calms my redness INSTANTLY! No more looking like W.C. Fields..... Marula oil is sadly overlooked by most companies. This is one of those instances where I was intrigued by a product for my sensitive skin but didn't want to buy something and have it not work. So yes, I got a packette sample- don't care- I wanted to test it before dropping $40 on a product I couldn't use. That's what samples are FOR, not to accumulate a Sephora in my house. (Which I've done anyway......)

Finally, complete complexion perfection with the moisture and anti-aging actives your skin craves. Get the divine skin of your dreams with fiafini. A hydrating and healing moisturizer that firms, minimizes wrinkles and restores elasticity, divine hydration moisturizer is the triple-targeted solution to the most common signs of aging. Formulated to be ultra-hydrating yet never heavy, this moisturizer helps soothe and calm redness with prickly pear, avocado and evening primrose extracts, while also reducing environmental stress on the skin. Powerful antioxidants marula oil and vitamin E fight fine lines and wrinkles, and help visibly firm and lift the skin for complete perfection, and as with all fiafini products, our moisturizer will always be free of fragrance, alcohol, mineral oil, and all parabens. No animal testing and vegan.

Control Corrective Redness Relief Serum
For sensitive, inflamed or Rosacea-prone skin. Botanical extracts plus skin-balancing vitamins reduce trans epidermal water loss, which in turn helps strengthen and balance the skin, reduce redness and inhibit future flare-ups. I'll be honest- can't tell you what I thought because it got eaten by my bathroom before I got to try it..... WHAH!!!!!!


Apothederm Stretch Mark Cream, 5.7 Ounce

• Visible results in as little as 2 weeks
• Evens skin tone and improve skin texture and smoothness
• Protects the skin to help prevent future stretch marks
• Optimally blends natural emollients: shea butter, cocoa butter, olive oil, meadowfoam seed oil
• Effective for old or new stretch marks

 I'm normally not a huge fan of really sweet scents but for some reason I am ADDICTED to Pink Sugar. Maybe it's the addition of the peppery, spicy undernotes that elevate it from little girl to sexy. This is what Bath & Body Works scents strives to achieve- a playful sweet scent for adults.

Aquolina Pink Sugar Eau De Toilette Spray Design House: Aquolina Year Introduced: 2004 Fragrance Notes: Cotton Candy, Caramel, Raspberry, Bergamot, Licorice, Poweder, Fig Leaves, Orange, Strawberry, And Wood. Recommended Use: Daytime

Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream is a cult favorite for a reason- even Madonna is a huge fan! The label is an esoteric version of the Dr. Bronners labels making for some amusing bathroom reading.

Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream The Ancient Kamitians' Secret, Magical Cream Life Takes From The Taker And Gives To The Giver.&Nbsp; Above All Let Your Word Be Your Bond. Peace, Divine Love, Perfect Health, Eternal Wisdom And Infinite Blessings Unto You, Precious One.&Nbsp; Ancient Kamitian (Egyptian) Folklore Recalls A Miraculous Skincream, A Secret Of The Great Sages, Mystics, Magicians And Healers Used To Maintain Radiant, Healthy, Smooth And Glowing Skin. No Synthetic Preservatives Or Synthetic Fragrance Added. Made In Usa

Pssssst! Dry Shampoo  (I found it at Herbs Pro, an online health store at a 21% savings over other places!) This is the original spray dry shampoo and it does an amazing job of soaking up oil and refreshing your hair- even removes the smell of smoke! For blowout gals this is a lifesaver and maybe even more sore for those of us who prefer to hit the snooze button.

Psssssst Instant Spray Shampoo 5.3 oz Pssssst, the original dry shampoo, is an effective solution to transform dull dirty hair without washing. Pssssst contains a perfected amount of powder to absorb excess oil, eliminate odor and product build up while boosting volume. Hair looks, feels, and smells freshly shampooed without the use of water. Just spray, brush and go. Preserves color.
