My Top Brushes!

Hi Guys! Today I wanted to share with you a handful of my favourite brushes because I really think good brushes are very important. I hate when a brush leaves bristles all over your face, that's the worst!  

 

Sigma F84- Angled Kabuki This is my go to brush when I'm applying my foundation. I don't know why I ever used anything other than this. It buffs the foundation into your face so nicely and flawlessly and leaves the most beautiful finish! Check it out here

Sephora 29- Blending Eye This is my newest brush but I love it already! It blends the shadow so nice and effortlessly, it's the perfect size for your crease. Check it out here

Sigma E40- Tapered blending (mrs. bunny essential kit) This is a great blending brush, it's so soft! It's the perfect brush to just finish off your look and bring all of your shadows together. Check it out here

Sigma E55- Eye Shading (mrs. bunny essential kit)

This is a great all over the lid brush. It applies the perfect amount of product onto the lid and just glides over with extremely soft bristles. Check it out here.

Sigma E30- Pencil 

This is a brush of many uses! Putting shadow on your lower lash line, outer corner of your eye, inner corner, that isn't even half of them. It's a great versatile brush  Check it out here.

Quo- Bronzing Powder Brush I'm not 100% sure but I think this brand is only available at Shoppers Drug Mart, which is unfortunate because they really do carry some great brushes. I've had this one for years! It's great for bronzer and you never really have to worry about it picking up to much product, which I love.
So that's it! Those are a few of my top brushes. What are some of your favourite brushes? Have you tried any of these before?

August Favorites!

Is August really over already?? I can't even wrap my head around the fact that the summer is already over and I'm back at school next week...to start my final year! yaahhh!

Hope you all had a great and amazing August! Here are some of the products I've been reaching for all month...

Revlon Whipped Foundation

I can't even say enough good things about this product. I'm going to do a review on it soon but overall it is...

• LONG lasting even with oily skin
• beautiful coverage
• applied best with your hands(this is literally the only foundation that I will do this with)

Sigma Angled Top Kabuki Brush F84

This brush is seriously amazing and since the day it came in the mail (6-ish months ago) it has been the only brush I use to apply my foundation. It gives the perfect airbrushed look, gliding on the makeup so smoothly and effortlessly. It really blends the makeup into your skin and you'll never have to worry about it looking streaky. You can check it out HERE also use  SB2012  to get 10% off! 

Essie polish in "Bikini So Teeny"

Love love love this colour, it is so unique and is probably in my top 5 favorite polishes of all time.It's been my most worn all summer!
Tangle Teezer Brush

My hair is very thin but I have a lot of it so it tangles like you wouldn't beleive! This brush has been a serious lifesaver, especially when I get out of the shower and my hair is wet, you barely feel it even going through your hair. ( when I went to take a picture of my brush I could not find it anywhere! But here is a picture from the internet)

L'Oreal Colour Riche in "Pink Cashmere"

I picked this up last week but it became a favorite so fast! The formula is so smooth and moisturizing and there is something about it that just makes your lips look so nice and full! I'm in love with this colour, although I think I need to branch out and get some lip products that aren't in the pink tones!
Urban Decay eyeshadow in "Sin"

This has been a favorite for a good year in a half. It's the only colour in my Naked palette that I've actually almost used up. I actually had to go and buy a single eyeshadow because I love it that much. It's a beautiful all over the lid colour or paired with a shadow like toasted from the Naked palette.

& Some quick random favourites of the month...

• Big Brother( It's starting to get so intense, I was all about team Ian but now I don't even know who I want to win!)
• Mini Putt( Pat & I have been going so offten this summer. He is a serious golfer and I've beaten him almost everytime, he was not a happy camper haha!)
• Iced Green Tea Lemonade from Starbucks( this isn't really a new favorite, I've just been drinking them like crazy all month!)

And last but not least... here are a few pictures from throughout this month!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

What's in my makeup bag♥

Hi everyone!
I love looking at "what's in my bag" and " what's in my makeup bag" post so I thought I would do one in case anyone loves looking at them as much as I do!

My makeup bag: Kenneth Cole from Winners

Maybelline Baby Lips: Always always always have a good lip balm in my bag. The baby lips ones are amazing and some of them even have a tint to them!
Mac lip luster in Plink!: Great color that will go with everything. The luster formula from mac is my favorite, it makes it look like you almost have a gloss over top.
Smashbox Lip gloss: I'm just trying this one out right now so I don't have to much to say about it yet but the smashbox lip glosses never disappoint!
Benefit Posietint: This is a great thing to have it you ever want to have a blush in your bag but you don't want to pack a brush as well. This is super easy to apply and lasts all day!
DYNK roller ball perfume: This is really handy to have in your purse as a rollerball is always easy to apply on the go
Mascara: I have way to many mascara samplers so I've been using them in my make up bag because they are really small and don't take up much room. Also it's been a great way to try them all out and see which ones I like
Maybelline Dream Matte powder: A pressed powder is always great to have if you're going to be out all day and need a quick touch up. This one from maybelline is great for people with oily skin.

Tarte eyelash curler: This is great to have in you bag as a quick fix. If you're nervous about putting on a second layer of mascara because you think it will get clumpy then just hold the eyelash curler on your eyelashes for a second and you'll be good!
Bobby pins & hair bands: for obvious reasons!
Blotting papers: These are a must have for me in the summer! I have oily skin and that does not mix well with the heat!
Blending brush: I love having a blending brush in my bag because if I'm ever feeling like my eyeshadow is creasing or just not looking to great I'll just blend it in a little bit and it will be as good as new!
Tweezers: Always handy to have in you bag

Contact solution and contact case: I have this in my bag just in case. I can still see fairly well without my contacts so if they're every bugging me one day I know I can always take them off.
Deodorant: You never know when you'll need this!
Mouthwash: This travel size bottle always comes in handy! I just keep refilling it with my bigger bottle I have at home.



Anyway, hope you all enjoyed this post! What are some of your must haves in your makeup bags??
