Bobbi Brown: Bag & Brushes

Makeup bag & Mini Brush set

Okay, I always used to shy away from the Bobbi Brown counter, I thought the sales staff was over-enthusiastic, & that unnerved me.

Now I see that they were right-on. Dead-on. Spot-on. Perfect.

I think I am now a Bobbi-o-phile.

The bag is super-cute, a mini shaving bag, zips around 3 sides.

But the brushes are AMAZING!!!

There's a lip brush, an eye-shadow brush, & a foundation brush.

No random hairs left on you after using, just your make-up, right where you want it!

The handles are small, so you can easily carry them with you, but the brush parts are perfectly sized.

TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!

Sephora Mini Travel Brush Set

I love Sephora.

I really do.

I have never been unsatisfied with any other purchase.

This one, however, sucked.

The set comes in a metallic-teal travel case, 5 brushes (one face, 4 eyes).

It would have been easier just to throw random brush hairs all over-- my face, the counter, the floor... I found a couple inside a pair of shoes, & not the ones I was wearing.

I have looked on the Sephora site & not found the set, so I am hoping they discontinued.

Has anyone else had any trouble with Sephora brushes???

Naieme - Makeup Brush Set

Naieme
Leatherette Brush Set

I am always trying out new makeup brushes. Sometimes I watch makeover shows on TV and go and buy the brushes that they use for makeup (I am addicted to What Not to Wear). Let me say that these brushes are the best thing since sliced bread. I am not kidding. There are 5 brushes in this set. All neatly arranged in a sassy gold case with an extra zipped pocket for storage. All 5 brushes are colored and labeled. The blush/powder brush is a nice size for me. Not too big, not too small. Blush goes on evenly and the brush is soft. Next is the blender/lid brush. I have been using this brush to apply eyeshadow on my lids. Everything gets covered evenly and easily. The next brush is the crease/smoke brush. It is amazing. This brush makes it SO easy to give your eyes that smoky look. I LOVE it. I can't believe how easy it makes applying dark colors to the creases. It is like a little masterpiece paintbrush for my eyes. There is also a concealer/foundation brush. I have found this one useful when trying to cover a blemish or dark spot on my face. Concealer goes on easily and covers well. The last brush may be my favorite. It is a brow/liner brush. I have only used it as a liner brush so far, but it is crazy how great it works. I instantly threw away all of my pencil eyeliners (ok, I didn't throw them away, I just moved them out of my every day makeup bag). All of the girls at my friend's wedding last weekend used the liner brush and asked how and where to get one. I directed them (as I am now directing you) to the emmett cooper HAIRCARE & the naieme collection website. Go and buy this set now. http://emmettcooperhaircare.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=26&products_id=33
