Real Techniques Starter Kit

Hey guys!!!

When I got the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge I loved it so much that I wanted to try the brushes. I have collected quite a few brushes, but I will only talk about one set of brushes. One time Ulta was having a 40% off sale on Real Techniques so I took advantage and got the Starter Kit.

As you can see they are all eye brushes and I love using every single one of them. They are all very soft and I try to wash them on a weekly basis if I don't get too lazy. Now on to the individual brushes and what I use them for.

Accent Brush

The website says it is used for precision detailing, highlighting, and smudging. I use it to highlight my inner corner and I love it. It is small enough to put it in your inner corner and highlight it more precise.

Deluxe Crease Brush

The website says it is a soft, oversized design for effortless contouring. I love to use this brush to put a transition shade in my crease and to attempt to contour my nose. It really makes it really easy to blend the eyeshadow or the bronzer out.

Base Shadow Brush

The website says it applies a smooth, flawless foundation of color and that it does. If my elf eyeshadow brush is too dirty I will use this one and I love how it applies color to my lid.

Brow Brush

The website says that the distinctive shape easily defines eyebrows. I use a eyebrow pencil at the moment and after applying a couple strokes I then blend it out with this brush. Another use for this brush I apply eyeshadow on my lower lash line before I blend it out with a fluffy brush.

Fine Line Brush

The website says it is for precision application of cream eyeliner. I have never really use gel eyeliner until I got the Mary Kay gel eyeliner. It is still a work in progress, but this brush has made it a little easier to apply than the brush the eyeliner came with.

Overall I LOVE the Real Techniques brushes. I love them so much that I have more and honestly I want to get them all. I will talk about them later on. They are an affordable line of brushes. You can find them on their website, Kohl's, Ulta, and I hear Rite Aid is carrying them now.

Do you guys love these brushes as much as I do?? Which one is your favorite brush??

Whitening Lightning Color Your Smile Lighted Lip Gloss

Hey guys!!! Have you guys heard of Jaclyn Hill ?? If not you have been missing out. She does the best make-up tutorials and recently she had a brush set with Sigma which I missed out on cause I couldn't afford it at the time. Then she announced she came out with her own lip gloss through Whitening Lightning and decided to go ahead and get this one even if it was a little pricey, but I saved up money for it. See how pigmented that color is?? This is the color Rose Hill and the website says it is a romantic and feminine hue. It is a beautiful rosy red color and I love it!! This gloss is amazing because first it has a mirror on the side. Just remember to remove the sticker that is on top of the mirror, but I haven't done that yet that's why it looks dirty on the picture. Secondly, when you open this gloss it lights up. So if you need to reapply when you are out and you don't have a mirror and/or you are in a dark place you are covered. Last but n

Battle of the Eye Primers

Hey guys!! I have oily eyelids and I struggled when I was younger with my eyeshadows and eyeliner creasing. At the time I never understood why. I went into sephora a couple years ago with my best friend and asked "how can I stop that from happening?" That's when I was introduced to eye primers. My first ever eye primer was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I have been testing out 6 different eyelid primers and out of the six only two did not work for me. I decided to do this blog for the people that have that same issue as me and to show you guys what options there are out there in the make up world from drugstore to high end. I tried the ELF Eyelid Primer, Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer, Mary Kay eye primer, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Isurance, and BareMinerals Prime Time Primer. I'm going to start off with the one that was the worst one out of all of these. It was the Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer. $4.99

Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

Hey guys!!! I love love love the Batiste Dry Shampoo , but before I traveled back in October I had ran out and I didn't have time to buy more. I went into a drugstore and the only thing I found was a Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo so I decided to go ahead and try it out. I honestly do not like this dry shampoo, but I don't hate it. This dry shampoo will get the job done. It sucks up all the oils in your hair and it will stay like that till the next day. I hate the smell of it. To me it turns me off to a product if it doesn't smell good. Also a couple days ago I sprayed some in and someone told me that one side of my hair is white. This is definitely a product that you need to brush it out after a few minutes of applying it to your hair. The white cast that it leaves behind also turn me off to this product. Overall this is an okay dry shampoo. I will be going back to Batiste as soon as this is done haha. Have you guys tried this product?? What do you think??
