Friday Favorites | Favorite Face Brushes

So I've actually sat around thinking about this post a little longer than I would like to admit. Friday Favorites posts are always the hardest for me because truth be told I don't love many things. Sure I might like a good amount of things but the jump from like to love in my book is a hard one to make. It probably also doesn't help that sometimes I just don't think about those everyday routine bits that have been so tried and true that they almost forgettable favorites... If that makes any sense to anyone besides me.

I think that the tools you work with are just as important as the makeup you are putting on your face. Using the right tools to apply your makeup can make all the difference in the world; they can change a decent look into a spectacular one so I don't think that finding what works best for you is really important. I know that some people want to skimp out in this department which is sometimes fine if you can find a great product at a decent price (everyone loves that) but, shouldn't always be the case. Invest some love into your brushes and tools because they are going to outlast any makeup product you get (or they should) and will be your best weapons.

February has been short, bitter, and cold... I can't say I'm sorry to see it and it's crap-tastic weather go. On the plus side this has been one of the first times in a long time that I've been really dedicated to a few new products and a few rediscoveries. I always think it's great to find a few long lost loves that have been over-looked under the mounds of eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, and blushes.
