For Brooke =)



































Now I recommend ALL of these colors for you but obviously you are going to pick just 3-4. They are: Bitter, Wedge, Deep Truth, Nehru, Blanc Type, Humid, Parfait Amour, Plum Dressing and Beautiful Iris. Go and see what ones you like and buy buy buy!!!! Tell me which ones you get and I will do a tutorial for you based on those colors. Have SO much fun and don't be afraid to try the deeper colors, they will look GREAT with your brown eyes...TRUST me!!!

More Brush Holders!!!!


The first one comes to us from Krystle in California and the second from Nicole in Colorado. Krystle, I LoVe the shape of yours!!! Nicole, what did you use as a filler? It looks so sparkly and beautiful!!!!! That tall brush in the back Nicole and I got together. It is also a craft store find that can be used as a powder brush. How much do we all love the craft store??? =)

Rihanna People Magazine Cover


This is a request but has SO much more in it!!!!! Not only do I do my take on the Rihanna PEOPLE cover but I also teach about cheekbones for those of you wanting them =) and false eyelash application. I LoVe this look and am VERY pleased with how it all came together. I did forget to record the fact that I used Vanilla as my brow bone color, oops!!! Let me know what you think and if you see any other pictures you want me to recreate, let me know!!!!


My Must Have Brushes For Leigh Anne =)

Having purchased quite a few brushes good and bad these are my must haves starting from #1 most important on down. If you are just building up your brush supply then start at the top =)!!!
#239
#217
#272
#187
#222
These are the brushes that I LOVE and use ALL the time. I have 2 #17s and the #239. The 239 can also be found at the craft store for only $4.95!!!!!!!!! It is not the same brush but just as good. It is the Maxine's Mop 3/4" Loew Cornell brand. I have also gotten my eyeliner brush (see below) and many more paint brushes there. See older post: Brushes Can Be Cheap.

Yeah Becky!!!


Becky has made a gorgeous brush holder. Just look how easy it is to find the one you want and place it back in =). Remember after washing do not let them dry upwards like this!!! I feel the need to review older posts and that was one of them. Most of the handles are wood. Over time the water will drain down into them causing them to rot.

Filler For Brush Holder

This is the filler that I picked up from Michael's. It is available at most craft stores and is GREAT for storing your brushes. Go and get cha some =).
