What's in my Travel Makeup bag?
Wednesday, 3 October 2012
I was going to try and take minimal makeup with me on holiday, especially because I plan on buying some in duty free at the airport. When I photographed it all it looked like a LOT, but then I realised that in the grand scheme of all of my makeup, this is actually only a small amount! I probably wont use it all either, but you never know what you'll feel like wearing. I've linked any reviews to products I've included - anyway on to what I'm taking!
Real Techniques Makeup Brushes
Tuesday, 12 June 2012
Hey Guys!
Over the last little while I've been building up my makeup brushes, because I never really had any! And having looked at all the high-end brushes, I was a bit reluctant to pay £30-£40 for one brush - especially because before that I mostly used my fingers!! But, I had been watching some of the Pixiwoo videos on youtube (if you've never seen them I highly recommend their tutorials) and seen them always using the real techniques brushes, which I'd seen many many times in Boots. And then I realised that Sam was the one who designed the brushes and that made me even more excited about them.
The first set I bought was the Starter set, which is all your basic necessities for eyes. They've been amazing! I don't know how I done my makeup before I had them. The base shadow brush is a dupe for MAC 217 but you can get all of these for about the same price. The eyeliner brush is a little too thick for me, but that's just because I don't suit anything more than a barely there line. Although I do use it if I'm just using a darker eyeshadow in my lash line because it's a little more blended out looking.
