SL Missglam Brushes

I purchased these beautiful brushes a few weeks ago and I absolutely love them! A little about my ordering experience: It was great! The order system was smooth and I received my pretty package a couple of days after with a cute hand written note (Thank you Stephanie!)

The brushes are gorgeous and very well made. They are also super soft and really great to work with. I love the soft pink color of the brushes and also the cute bling detailing on the ferrel. Pink and bling are a two of my faves so the combo on these brushes are perfect!

Overall, I would definitely recommend these pretty brushes. They are great at applying powder, cream and liquid make up. I love using the powder brush for blush & bronzer :)

February 2013 Favourites

I'm a little behind on my favourites (again! no surprises :P) lol. For the month of February I have been trying out some Cover Girl products. When I first started using make-up I had started with some Cover Girl powder and then expanded from there. But as I moved on to other brands I sort of forgot all about Cover Girl... Well except for the lash blast mascara which I still love. Anyways, they have come out with some great products recently and they have made it into my favourites for February! Yay!

• Cover Girl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation in 920 Creamy Natural - I really like the coverage it gives
• Cover Girl Lip Perfection Jumbo Gloss Balm in Coral Twist - Sorta sheer coverage but very nice on the lips :)
• MAC 109 & 217 Brushes - I love the 109 for contouring and the 217 for applying and blending eyeshadow (I can't believe it has taken me this long to purchase the 217!)
• Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Khol Kajal liner in Black - This is a pretty creamy liner that you can smudge to create a nice smokey eye.
• Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish in Blue Slate - I have been loving this blue on my nails!
• Maybelline Vivids in Pink Pop - WOW such a pretty hot pink lipstick!
• Loreal Infalliable Eye Shadow in Amber Rush - Such a pretty wash of colour on the lids.

So, those are my faves for the month of February! What have yours been? Let me know so I can try them out :) Until next time!! Muah!

April Favourites 2012: NYX, MAC, Maybeline & More

Its that time already?! April favourites came way too fast! Anyways here are some of my fave products for the month of April (those items I found myself reaching for the most!)

• Bath & Body Works Pink Chiffon Fine Fragrance Mist - This stuff smells sooo good and I find myself constantly spraying myself with it through out the day. Since it is just a mist the scent does tend to disappear after a few hours. I keep a travalo full of this mist in my purse and take it where ever I go :)
• ECO tools Bronzer Brush - I was watching one of Chelsea's (http://www.youtube.com/xclosetoreal) videos and she had mentioned this brush so I went out to purchase it. Right after using it for the first time I fell in love and have been using it constantly since! Thanks Chelsea!
• MAC Matte Blush in Melba - Love this blush because its the perfect color to give your face a bit of a flush look but it isn't sparkly because its a matte color. I love wearing this blush when I have a dramatic smoky eye :)
• Maybeline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze - This color is perfect for everyday wear! I sometimes just put this on with a bit of liner and mascara and am good to go for the day.
• Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti - A nice coral orange color. Great to give your face a pop of color for the day!
• NYX Butt Naked Palette - This palette has everything you need for eyes, cheeks and contour. Shadows are very nice and I love the blushes that come with this palette. Great for creating neutral and smoky eye looks!

Well, that is all my favourites for the month of April! What have your favourites been? Comment below! Don't forget to enter the Giveaway if you haven't already :)

Sigma Mini Haul

 

My haul from Sigma! I received my beautiful brushes about a week ago but haven't had the time to post a blog about it. I ordered the Make Me Cool  Professional Brush Kit & the limited edition The Cities Tokyo Travel Kit. My first impressions of these brushes are that they are pretty good quality for the prices. I have used some of the eye brushes and the face brushes from the Make Me Cool set and they are very soft and apply the product quite well. I have already washed all the brushes and did not see much shedding of bristles. I compared the softness of the brushes to some of my MAC brushes and they are quite comparable, not exact dupes but still very good quality.

The Make Me Cool brush set comes with 5 Face brushes & 7 Eye brushes for a total of 12 brushes. I have used most of the eye brushes and am loving them. The Tokyo Cities brush set comes with 3 Face brushes and 4 Eye brushes and the quality of these brushes are just the same as the full sized ones. Overall, I think that these brushes are quite a good investment for those who do not want to spend 50 dollars on one MAC brush. Also, these brushes are great for those people who are just starting out with Make Up or who are thinking of becoming make-up artists :)

Happy New Years! See you in 2012 <3

November Faves 2011

 "Amber Romance" body mist by Victoria's Secret. I've been wearing this fragrance almost everyday. It has a sweet & fall smell that I am really loving right now :)

 "Make Up For Ever" face kabuki. I purchased this during the F&F sale at Sephora. I've been wanting this brush for awhile and finally purchased it :) Its so soft and applies powder products quite well!

 "Fairest Nude" Loreal Lipstick. I have been in love with this color ever since I first purchased it. I think it is one of the most "your lips but better" colors at a drugstore price. The only downside would be the smell of it, it has somewhat of a perfume fragrance.

 "Super Stay" Maybelline foundation in Honey Beige. I have been using this foundation for most of November and purchased it around the beginning of the month. It has awesome coverage and staying power.

"Voluminous False Lashes" Loreal mascara. Another Loreal product yes! At first I wasn't a huge fan of the formula or brush of this mascara, but, I have grown to love it :) The mascara makes my lashes look really good!

"Lets get Naked" Urban Decay Palette! I really love this e/s palette and have used it consistently ever since I purchased it. I am tempted to purchase another one just for the fun of it :) I also am wanting the Naked 2 palette but have to wait until it comes to Sephora in Canada :(
