Beauty Blender Vs Brushes

I imagine that whether you prefer to use a Brush or a Beauty Blender sponge to apply your make-up is very much down to the individuals preference. For years i applied my foundation with a flat brush and I wasn't ever 100% pleased with how the make-up would look or sit on my skin. It would always looked streaky or like it never sunk into the skin in a nice way - it always sat on top of the skin and was never blended very well.

Then I found a Beauty Blender at Space NK and thought I would give it a go since the brushes I had tried never seemed to work very well.

I was really impressed with the finish that the Beauty Blender - it really made the foundation sink into the skin so it made it look such a natural finish.

The other reason that I enjoy using the Beauty Blender to a brush is that it takes a lot less time to buff the foundation into the skin. With the brush I feel like I stand there for ages buffing it into the skin and never seem to get the outcome that I really want. But with the sponge i find that it takes about half the time to get the result I preferred.

The only slight problem I have with Beauty Blenders is that I feel they do soak up a little of the product - which can be very wasteful as you are using more and wasting more. This can really be seen when they are getting cleaned as a lot of product does wash out.

Overall, I find the Beauty Blender takes half the time for the make-up to have that natural finish than the brush. I would recommend everyone to try out a make-up sponge if they are not happy with the finish the make-up brush is giving them.

Lip Blams

For a couple of years now I've been suffering with the worst case of dry/cracked lip imaginable. All day I am constantly applying lip balm as my lips without anything covering them is agony. They constantly crack and then bleed, they flake off and to be completely honest it isn't exactly very nice to be talking to someone and feel as though they are just staring at your flakey lips. So since I feel like I am an expert in the field of lip balm as I own and have tried what feel like hundreds over the past two years that I would give you my personal opinion on a few Lip Balm I have tried out recently and wether they were work the money, and if they have done anything to help my lips. 1. La Roche-Posay - Barrier Repairing Balm I initially bought this as I had heard Estee Lalonde rave about how good it was for helping her lips from being so cracked and sore so thought it would help me. I use this every night and lather it on my lips and yes I do think it helps...

Christmas Gift Guide - For Her

I don't know about anyone else but I find it so difficult to find presents for people, I am not the type of person that goes shopping and sees gifts that my friends or family would like. I have one friend that goes shopping and sends pictures of things she knows all her friends would like - why am i not more like her? Gift shopping for me is such a daunting thing.

Mario Badescu Make Up Remover

For many months now I have been using a waterproof mascara as I feel like it hold a better curl and last a lot longer without dropping or shortening the curl. One thing I could not stand and quite frankly dreaded was having to take the mascara off to apply a fresh coat, I used to spend ages tugging at my lashes to try and get all the product off but for some reason my lashes just never felt clean, I always felt like there was still a coat of mascara on them. I searched the shops for removers that were specific to taking off waterproof mascara and even they did not seem to work either. I loved how to mascara looked and I did not want to have to try and find another mascara that looked as good. I was looking through Beauty Bay a few months back and found the brand Mario Badescu and I remembered watching a video of Zoe where she spoke and raved about how good the brand was. Since I had tried everything else I didn't think it would hurt to give their waterproof ...
