Sephora Inspired Makeup Brush Holder

Sephora Inspired Makeup Brush Holder

Has your brush situation ever plagued you? Scrambling through the abyss that is your makeup bag looking for the right brush only to grab your mascara for the THIRD time?!?!? Well fret no more ladies…here it is…THE brush holder!!! Go to any craft store, find ANY container that fancies you and put in any flower vase filler that is nice and small. If you get them too big the brushes won’t stand as well. It’s super cheap and a GREAT way to organize your brushes. I think I am due to get another and separate the eye brushes from the face brushes….the possibilities are ENDLESS!!!!!


Makeup Brushes Can Be Cheap!!!!!

Makeup Brushes Can Be Cheap!!!!!

Well, let me clarify. They need to be made well but you don’t have to spend your (or in my case) your husband’s whole paycheck to get those quality bristles. These are paint brushes that I picked up at Michael’s. They are Loew-Cornell brand and are made from the same fibers as MAC brushes. No, you cannot find a duplicate for every brush that MAC offers but here are some of the basics offered there. To see the details of exactly which ones you can get, visit the link on the side of the blog entitled Paint Brushes vs MAC Brushes. It will take you to EnKore. He is very gifted and teaches many things. I even made my own brush cleanser so that I didn’t have to pay $10 at MAC. I love these brushes and use them soooo much. There is no fall out with the bristles and the handles are basically the same too!!!!

I CANNOT say enough good things about this makeup!!!! These are mineral pigments that have a WOW effect when you put them on. They do have shades for everyone, though the ones I picked out are bold and dare I say “sassy” =). I will be doing future tutorials on these bad boys so be watching for it. When I bought the set of ten they were $5 each and came to $50 and when you spend that much shipping is free!!! Check out the website at beautyfromtheearth.com.

I am VERY impressed with this new duo color from MAC. It goes on so well and you don’t need to use much. I would still use a base like the Urban Decay Primer Potion. I used the marbled side all over the lid and the solid in the crease. It’s limited so go out and get it!!!! I want to get the green and pink =).
