hey ladies, how are you all doing? i hope you haven't forgotten me yet hehe. anyhoo, just wanted to share with you all how i clean my makeup brushes. i also took this opportunity to play with editing a video in hope that i can produce better videos in the future, especially makeup tutorials.
in case you can't view the video, all i did was wash my brushes with a bar of soap instead of the usual brush cleansers. some of you may find it hard to believe it cleanses but it does, well for me it works. if you try it and it works for you, i hope you are as satisfied with it as i am! :)
here are the end results: squeaky clean bristles!
hope what i've shared made sense to most of you, especially those with a tight makeup budget. enjoy your day!
It's been a very long while since MAC came up with a limited edition collection that truly excited me. And I'm elated that this one does very much!!! I'm contemplating on the flat buffer brush and blush. I like the lippie too but I think I already have a similar shade in my stash. I'm not a neutral eye makeup kinda gal but I'm slowly realizing I cannot keep on putting on colorful eyeshadow as I grow older. And this eyeshadow compact looks neat. I am loving the lip pencil and blush too! Hope I could still find some stocks when I hit the MAC counters! Are you captivated by this collection too?
