What? Brush Guard?

Hey guys!

I just discovered this new item, i don't even know how long it has been selling for!
It is pretty good, for the most part! I purchased it 2 weeks ago & got it on thursday! was too busy to try it out! But finally got a chance to try it today!

My friend loves it! I sorta have mixed feelings for it!

So this is how it looks like!


I got 2 variety packs! The variety packs consist of 3 different brush guard sizes
1 face brush sized
2 blush brushes sized
2 eyeliner/eyeshadow brushes sized

I should have taken pictures of the guard it self but silly me didnt! :(
Here is my washed brushes with the guard!

So, what does this brush guard do?

1. It is supposed to allow your brush to maintain it's shape while drying
2. It ensures that water does not flow back into the brush during drying! Since it ensures that the brush is facing downwards!
3. You can bring your brushes for travelling with this! Keep them clean! :D
yays to clean brushes!

Just put them in a normal cup & the water is supposed to drip out into the cup! (:


This is how it looks like on it's own! This is my Eco-tools blush brush (IMO the BEST lower end brush, infact i like it better then Sigma! No offence to Sigma lovers!)

For the most part these brush guards are good& they do live up to what they are supposed to do!
BUT, i have my sigma brush in the travel sized kit & they DO NOT work well with them ):
Because the brush guard is relatively long, when it was being pulled over my travel sized brushes, there was not way i could even get a little grip of the handle to pull the guard to allow it to fit nicely. i had to push my BRUSH TIP (VERY BAD!!!!!) to get it to fit.

Am i even making sense? Maybe i should do a video i sound so confusing! haha

But bottom line : Works well with FULL sized brush! & not with travel sized ones ):

Shipping is def worth it! $3 or 5(can't remember) for FIVE packs! so share the shipping with your friends & it's worth it! I think i got mine for about $7/pack (plus shipping)

So, have YOU tried it? Will you want to try it? (: Share with me your thoughts alrights?!

Peace out!

E's Go to products!(:

Hey guys! Just a short vid on my go-to products! :D

Revlon Photoready in 009 Rich Ginger!

Hey guys!

I am not really a foundation gal, but with all the rave & hates about the photoready! how can i not try it right?(:


Soooo, i did! I got mine in 009 Rich ginger, i did a mini swatch so you can compare it with MAC.
My MAC spf 15 foundation is in NC45 & you can see that the photo ready is much lighter, but it somehow blends really well & it DOES NOT look too fair on me! (:


All about it :

This foundation was supposed to give you the no-makeup look
For all skin types
Tiny range of colour for revlon (9 colours only)
FABULOUS pump! with excellent control!


REVIEW:

Before getting it, i read so many different mixed reviews. Some people loved it to no end & some hated it etc. So i decided not to get it, especially since i'm not big on foundation!

BUT, i went to priceline (sells drugstore makeup & beauty mart in Australia) & i saw them promoting it! Out of curiosity, i tried it & i swear i fell in love with it instantly! I love the tiny specks of shimmers! It gives you the glowy look which you want especially in the autumn/winter! I love dewy look! I could not control myself & purchased it!

I used it for a week & i must say i am quite impressed, it does give really light coverage (which works out well for me) & it does have the dewy, no-makeup look which i like! If you want more coverage don't go for this, it will NOT give you what you are looking for. This is to me a very everyday foundation which i feel still allows my skin to breath! (:

Ratings : 3.5/5 Poofs!

Anyways, if any of you guys want to see a review on the product below, leave a comment/ tag & i will do so! Swatches & reviews! just give me a holla! :D

This Chi Chi pack has eyeshadow, blushes, bronzer, lipgloss & applicators! So give me a holla for the swatches of these! :D


Beauty Poofs!
One thing which i have been religiously doing is really making sure i WASH my face very very well daily! I do not wash my face from the tap, i actually fill up a bowl of water (i have a special bowl which i use to wash my face & do facials for myself) & really give me face a good wash!

If you want to see how i wash my face/do my own facial, leave a comment/tag & i'll do that for you guys! :D

MAC Too Fabulous!

Hey guys!

I went to Myers TODAY! & the new collection Too Fabulous is out! :D

The mineralized blushes are REALLY PRETTY! (: They look really shimmery but it isn't as shimmery on your cheeks!
It's my first mineralized blush & i love it! I just purchased it so i have not used it yet! But the MA at MAC applied some for me! I bought bi-tone.

Credits :temptalia
There are 5 colours,
Bi-tone : pink & goldish
Buddy up : Plum & bright pink
Chic Couple : Peachy and brown
Rhapsody in Two
: Light pink and light peachh.
Sun & Moon:
brown with pinkish brownish shimmers

There are also Dazzle creme which i did not really fancy thus not getting any. There were 12 colours (i think) if you like hate dazzle glass shimmers you will LOVE this! It has NO shimmers at all. I love the shimmers in dazzle glass thus did not purchase any of the dazzle creme!

There were also 6 lip liners which were quite pretty, i'll post up their pictures soon! (:

Pop by Myers/DJs to check them out! A relatively small collection but it was quite pretty!(:

ANYWAYS!!!! Colour Forecast will be out on 15 MARCH(MONDAY) according the MAC SA very very very excited for that!! I really can't wait there is a 101 things i WANT from that collection!!

MAC makes me broke :( boo!

Swatches of Bi-tone will be up soon & IF i have time i'll pop by Myers/DJ again to swatch everything else (: I might not have time though :( Uni's been terribly busy! sighs.

love you guys! (:
