ELF Eye and Face Brushes

Hey guys!!

 I know I always talk about my favorite Real Techniques brushes, but I have a few ELF brushes that I love and one that I don't love as much. I have 5 brushes to talk to you guys about today!

I have 3 eye brushes and 2 face brushes.

The ELF Essential Brushes are only $1 and the ELF Studio brush is $3!! Very affordable price for some good brushes. Now to tell you about every single brush. I will start with the eye brushes.


At first I got this brush so I could blend out my whole crease, but I realized I needed a more fluffy brush for that so I looked for different ways to use this. I still use this in my crease, but to add color to a specific area in my crease and I go with a fluffy brush to blend it out. I also use this to add color to my outer v and sometimes my inner corner depending on the eye look I am going for. I use this brush almost everyday and I love it! Also whenever I deep clean this brush it doesn't shed at all!


Everyone needs a brush like this in their collection! This is great to pack on eyeshadow all over your lid and I also use this for my pigments since I don't have a special brush for that. This brush is self explanatory! That's all I have to say about it!

ELF Essential Defining Eye Brush

I was just bored one day at the store when I spotted this brush and thought "eh why not?" I bought it just to buy it since it is $1 and I wanted to see how I could use this brush. I started out using this brush by applying color on my outer v, but now I love using brush to apply my highlight on my brow bone. I can blend it out beautifully with this brush. Holy grail brush!

ELF Studio Small Stipple Brush

I wanted to try out cream contouring and I figured this brush would be perfect for that. This brush is perfect for blending cream products! One of my favorite face brushes from ELF! If you are interested in cream products you guys should totally check this one out. 

ELF Essential Blush, Bronzing, and Blending Brush

I only use this to try to contour and it is good for that, but this one is my least favorite brushes. It sheds a lot everytime I deep clean it and I don't use this everyday because of that. Another reason is cause it is not as soft as my Real Techniques face brushes and with how rough it is sometimes it removes some foundation. Otherwise it is an okay brush. 

Those are all my ELF brushes! I honestly want to get a couple more from the studio line. What are some of you guys favorite brushes from ELF??

I have a giveaway going on and if you are interested in entering go here.

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I only started following her

What Are AHA's??

 Hey guys!!! AHA's(Alpha Hydroxy Acids) is water-soluble, exfoliates dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, reveals healthy looking skin, and it is suitable for all skin types. It helps stimulate collagen, hydrates the skin, brightens the skin, helps lessen skin texture, helps with acne scars, signs of sun damage, and dark spots. There are different types of AHA's out there.  Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the most well known and is used in skin care and is also used by a professional in a chemical peel.  It is either used alone in a skincare product or combined with another AHA ingredients at concentrations of 5% and up.

What are BHA's??

 Hey guys!!! The other day I spoke about AHA's and the different types of AHA's and now it is BHA's.  BHA's(Beta Hydroxy Acids) can get deeper into the pores to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. It is oil-soluble so it allows it to penetrate deep into the pores and gently breaks up blockages that clogs your pores. That will help with lessening your acne and less visible pores. If you have blackheads, on your nose especially, it can help getting rid of them without damaging your skin like the Biore pore strips do. Also prevents new ones from forming. It could also help with Keratosis Pilaris(KP) in body washes or even body lotions/butters. BHA's are good for all skin types, but especially oily, acne prone skin. Salicylic Acid Salicylic Acid is the most well known out of all of them. It helps reduce acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping the pores clear. It helps with mild acne, blackheads and whiteheads, can help prevent future breakouts.  Tropic Acid, Tret
