Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

Focus on one feature at a time. When wearing a loud shade of lipstick keep the eye makeup more subtle or if you want to go crazy with your eye makeup try a nude or subtle toned lipstick shade.

Invest in good quality brushes.

Good brushes will last for years and provide better makeup application and blending. The fluffy brushes are for blending while generally the flat brushes are for applying products like foundation, cream products, and packing on eyeshadow.

One of my most used and favorite brushes is my Crown Brush C412 Deluxe Pointed Crease Brush and the INSPR Beauty Eye Fluff Brush which is perfect for blending.

While some good quality brushes are more expensive, some of my favorite brushes are inexpensive $1 brushes from E.L.F. like this defining eye brush.

I feel as if  E.L.F. brushes don’t get enough praise and attention.  They have some great quality brushes available. I prefer the $3-$6 USD black handled brushes to the less expensive (yet still effective) white handled brushes, yet all the price points have great options avaliable.

They have also recently come out with a newer more expensive silver handled line.  This 7 piece silver handle set is only $10, and has everything you might need to complete a great face look.

You may remember my recent post last week about using Dove soap and a gentle wash cloth to wash off your makeup.  Well this week’s tip is something just as simple yet I think it is another great tip…

Use Dove soap to wash your makeup brushes.

You don’t always need to spend a ton of money on fancy brush cleansers.  While I do have several brush cleaners that I enjoy using For years I have been simply using Dove soap to wash my brushes.  It is very effective at removing makeup and cleaning my brushes without ruining the brushes.

I keep my Dove soap for my face and the Dove soap for my brushes separate, I store both of them in a plastic travel container.  It helps to keep the soap clean and fresh, while preventing it from drying out.  While I enjoy the shea butter to wash my face with, the original is my personal favorite for cleaning my brushes.

You don’t always need to spend a ton of money on fancy facial cleansers.  For years I have been simply using Dove soap with a gentle face cloth to wash my face.  It is very effective at removing makeup and cleaning my face without stripping my skin.  Dove soap can also be used around the eyes without causing too much irritation.

I keep my soap in a plastic travel container to keep it clean and fresh.

While the original bar is wonderful, I have been recently using the shea butter scent.  I find that all of the different scents work well, but the original and shea butter are my personal favorites.

This tip isn’t about makeup, but it is equally as important because it is about homemade cookies.

While I try to eat healthy most of the time, I have a major weakness for homemade cookies!

If you want your cookies to stay super soft and delicious for as long as possible store them with a piece of bread.  You will be amazed how well this tip works.  The bread will get stale and the cookies will stay soft and delicious!
