Makeup Brushes worth worshiping.

One word: Sigma!

I felt like a little kid on Christmas yesterday when I walked in to a beautifully packaged gift from my friends at Sigma Pro. In celebration of their 5 year anniversary, they released this beautiful, special addition copper flat Kabuki brush. It's not only one of my favorite brushes to use, it's so pretty! Something about the way it coordinates with my rose gold Michael Kors watch and all of my other arm candy gets me excited! ;D

The flat Kabuki is excellent for blending foundation and buffing in bronzers to achieve a flawless, natural finish like the ones seen here. It has a magical way of softening texture. 

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Thank you to my Sigma fam! To snatch one up for yourself, or see any of their other great products, visit their website.

 

Natural Makeup

One of our dirtiest little secrets as women is successfully pulling off that no makeup- makeup look. Natural makeup is my absolute fav! So how do you achieve this look? It's all about the skin! First, even it out with a tinted moisturizer or light foundation. I prefer something like Bobbi Brown on moisturized skin, applied with a damp beauty blender. If there are areas that need a little extra love, such as blemishes or dark circles, use the tip of your ring finger to spot treat those areas with a creamy concealer such as IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye. Once the skin is perfected, you're 90% there. Brush your brows in place, dust some bronzer/blush on your cheeks, a light coat of mascara, and a dab of your favorite fleshy lipgloss on your lips, and VOILA!
