Makeup Brushes

Here are my tools for perfecting my makeup looks. Most of the brushes are M.A.C professional brushes, I’ve had my set for a few years now. They’re a bit pricey but worth every penny. You can purchase brushes that work good and can be bought at Target or any beauty supply store for a cheaper price. I bought a few of them myself and they work just as good.

Eyeshadow Primer

First thing’s first, before applying eyeshadow, apply a primer. You can simply apply it all over the eyelid using a brush or using your ring finger. This will help your eyeshadow last longer, prevents eyelids from creasing due to natural oils and help eyeshadow colors become more vibrant. There are plenty of primers to choose from, I’ve tried a few but nothing beats M.A.C primers, I absolutely love them!

*My personal favorite primers are:

Prep + Prime eye

Soft Ochre paint pot  (medium)

Delft paint pot

R.S.V.P Creaseless cream shadow/ liner

Prep + Prime eye & Soft Ochre paint pot- can be used with all colors. I wear this ALL the time, not just only when I go out.

Delft paint pot - Love this product! this primer is for all those pretty darker shades of shimmery  blues, greens, grays, & purples. This primer really helps the colors become more vibrant. So pretty!

R.S.V.P Creaseless cream shadow/ liner – This one’s by Benefit I received a sample of it & I love it as well, it’s three in one, I use it as a primer for certain eyeshadows, mainly eyeshadows with sparkles & that are hard to stay on. ( I love free samples!)
