IQ Make-up Brushes

Well hello,

you rarely see me blog about make-up brushes, because I have been using the same ones for ages. Around last Christmas time I found myself cruising around make-up brushes, because I got them for my sister as a present. And as a true shopaholic you know I had to get some for myself as well. And I am happy i did so.

I decided to pick up IQ Powder brush and a Blush Brush. I found these at Austrian drugstore called Bipa if anyone is interested. These brushes are your typical blush and powder brushes, but what sold me on them was their amazing softness. They are duo fiber brushes, easy to clean and take care off and they don´t shed at all. Also the price for these is very affordable.

Blush Brush is significantly smaller and can be used for applying and blending out blush, contouring, bronzing, you name it. The fibers are quite short and angled, fitted perfectly for hollows of the cheeks. It is not very dense, which allows blending, but definitely dense enough and more than the powder brush. Powder brush has longer fibers and it´s quite flat. It is meant for applying powder allover the face for mattyfying or setting your make-up, but not suited for applying liquid foundation.

The quality of both of these brushes is very good and they are available for a great price. I don´t remember how much they were exactly, but they were quite cheap for sure. I hope you try them out, you won´t regret it. If you know of similar brushes please do share. What brand  brushes are you using currently?

Love,

 Well hello,

Lately I have been trying not to spend money on things I don´t really need, but sometimes I think I should be allowed to treat myself. And what better way to do so, than buying new beauty products. Also I am running out of some bits, so it is about time for me to venture out and try some new products. Here is a list of beauty things I have been eyeing for a while now.

I really want to try Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquers in Luna. I already own one in Celestial, which is gorgeous and I really like the Formula. But I have a feeling I am going to love Luna even more.

A year ago I started applying my makeup with brushes, before that I always used my hands. The brushes were really cheap and great for a brush beginner, but now, I really want some great quality brushes, that don´t shed, apply the products evenly and are easy to clean. I heard a lot of great things about the Real Techniques brushes, so I would love to try them out.

Another brands products, I haven´t had the chance to try out is Sleek. I really want to get one of their natural shades palette and the contour kit. Their quality is compared to higher end products and they just look lovely. Also I don´t own any great palette with natural eye shadows, so it would come in handy.

I heard a lot about the Maybelline Color Tatoo´s. I swatched them a few times, but haven´t had the courage to get them. The colors are lovely and bright, but not very wearable, at least for me. The ones I do think would look great for summer are the gold (Bold Gold) and bronze one (Bad To The Bronze), so I would love to try them out.

And lastly, I am running out of my favourite face powder. So it is about time to try Rimmel London´s Stay Matt face powder. Everyone is raving about this bad boy, so I am quite excited to get it.

What is on your beauty wishlist? Let me know.

Love,
