Magic Makeup Brushes

I know the feeling of any a woman of thirty, playing this harmless game. We often start to apprehend about our beauty as we get older. In making faces, each woman has her own secrets; I mean not only the basics of makeup application and technique but also how to use those fundamentals to create something special. Knowing what is just right for you is the key to make a good makeup. You should take note of such important things as: your age, your skin type, tone, and texture, your facial features, strong and blind points of your face and neck. By no means unimportant thing is the clothes you are going to wear.

The best thing about fashion makeup is that you can play with your makeup brushes, colors, eyeliners and cosmetics to achieve the look that suits you best. Makeup affords an opportunity to put you in the mood for whatever lies ahead. It is a kind of magic that can make you the person you want to be. I suppose that all of us should have own secrets of turning into the beautiful woman and to have own magic makeup brushes (as a magic stick).

If your wear contacts, you may have some problems in so far of applying makeup. Certainly you will make pretty eyes complying with the following recommendations. Let me reword: a good makeup brush is a recipe for success and a secret weapon of some kind. There are a lot of things you can do to put on makeup safely, no matter you wear contacts or not. Among others don’t forget about these:

Wash your hands before you are going to apply makeup.

Try a product with silicone for a longer lasting foundation.

A powder bronzer combined with blush can really even out skin tone. Dab your makeup brush into the bronzer, then into the blush and cover the whole face with a light touch.

Avoid getting too close to the eye with any type of cosmetics.

Use hypoallergenic makeup only, it permits to avoid sensitivity. Prefer well known trusted brand names.

Don't use waterproof mascara if you wear contact lenses.

Try not to use eyeliner that is directly drawn on the rim of the eye.

I can say with 100 percent certainty, makeup brushes are really the secret of the best makeup. Use cosmetic goods of well-known trusted company. From start to finish, use quality paint cosmetics; your appearance, heals and beauty depend on it. As for me, I prefer makeup brushes made of either goat or sable hair and cosmetics of brand names.

MAC Naked Honey Body Wash

Full disclosure: MAC sends me a ton of products every month - an overwhelming, but wonderful selection of free cosmetics, skincare, and some of the most beautiful promotional artwork you've ever seen.

With that out of the way, I must tell you that their new Naked Honey Body Wash is simply the most glorious thing I've ever used in the shower. The smell is incredible - the honey melds with the scent of narcissus, jasmine, and a bit of lavender for the slightly masculine edge that I love. My only complaint is that the scent is perhaps a bit too subtle. That said, I used it during my evening shower and woke up in the morning wondering, "Hey, why do I smell so amazing?"
The entire Naked Honey collection of thirteen items includes a skin salve, a body cream, and a fragrance. I think I shall be spending some of my hard-earned ducats on a few of these products as soon as I can.

Maybelline The Colossus Volum' Express Mascara

What annoys me about this product is the marketing. This model is clearly wearing mega false lashes. Does Maybelline really think women are that dumb?

I didn't see that photo until now, when I was looking for a link to the Maybelline page. I'd heard some good buzz about this mascara, and even Nigella Lawson loves it:

[T]here's a sort of game I play with a girlfriend of mine, and we each try and trump each other with a better mascara. I was very smug about Max Factor Masterpiece, and she countered with Estee Lauder Turbolash. I thought I'd got her with L'Oreal Telescopic but she bounced back and bounced higher with her latest offering: I have to say I have yet to find a better mascara on the market than Maybelline's The Colossal Volum' Express. It delivers what its slightly comical name is driving at, and it doesn't clump.

Indeed, this product nails separation, which is hugely important to me. My lashes are naturally long (which I had no hand in), so lengthening isn't important for me. But this is a very neat formula; the anti-Great Lash, I suppose. I didn't wear it on my lower lashes - I almost always leave them bare, for reasons of neatness - but loved the effect on my upper lashes.
