Makeup Brushes!


One of my favorite topics is makeup!  


The key to flawless makeup is makeup brushes ladies!!  If you have not invested in makeup brushes you are not doing yourself any favors!  


You don't have to spend a lot of money to get great brushes, I found this Sonia Kashuk Essential Eye 6-pc Kit for $9.99 on Target.com


Sonia Kashuk brushes are pretty good, the only compliant I have is that my all over powder brush is starting to shed a little (I have had this brush for at least 4 years and it only cost me about $8), not bad, but I am thinking of investing in a higher quality for my face brush only.


If you are just starting your collection, you only need a few brushes to get started. 


1. All over big powder brush
2. Contour/blush brush (If you wear blush)
3. Eyeshadow brush
4. Eyeshadow blending brush 


If you start with these 4 basic brushes, you can go a long way!

THE JURY IS STILL OUT ON THIS ONE!

If you have joined the Natural Hair Revolution...I need to hear from you!


I have been hearing rave reviews about Kinky Curling Custard which retails for $29.99/16 oz. & $17.00/ 8 oz.

I also have been hearing about Eco Stlyer Olive Oil Styling Gel which retails for $2.99 for 32 oz.!!

I have not been able to try neither, do you ladies have any comments or reviews?

Please let me know, I will try Eco Styler this summer, so I will definitely give you my opinion as soon as possible.
