Tip Tuesday #49

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday

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.

This e.l.f. Professional Complete Set of 12 Brushes is $12. While the overall quality of the brushes is good, in this “professional” line set some are definitely better than others. I am personally not a big fan of the Bronzer Brush, it is a bit too scratchy in my opinion. I have owned a few different of the Total Face brushes and found them to be a bit hit or miss.

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.

This week’s tip is how to avoid that dreaded gap between your eyeliner and eyelashes…

While there is no “wrong way” to do your makeup, and if you like the way that something looks go for it and do what makes you feel pretty!…All that being said…

I remember when I was a junior in college I had a friend that always had a gap in between her eyeliner and eyelash line. For some strange reason, it seriously drove me nuts!

When eyeliner is done correctly your lashes will look fuller and your liner will make your eyes stand out. To achieve this is as simple as wiggling your eyeliner directly into your lash line. Yup, that is it! If you need to you can even lift your upper lid and tight lining underneath you lashes. This way your eyeliner with be an enhancement and not a distraction from you beautiful eyes!

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

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.

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.

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

Instead of using a pencil, gel, or liquid liner to line the lower lash line use eye shadow. Take a small eyeshadow brush and a coordinating eyeshadow and apply it to the outer two-thirds of the lower lash line. Blending the darker color with the inner corner color will create a beautifully seamless look along the lower lash line. This simple trick will give dimension and depth to the eyes without looking too harsh. Don’t forget to blend blend blend!

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

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!

Let me know if you try it and if you find that it works! Enjoy some cookies 😉
