Review and FOTD: Etude Cookie Blusher and Dear Darling Petit Lip

 

Etude Cookie Blusher no 5

Pros

♠ Cute packaging and puff

♠ it has Gold Shimmer if you like a youthful and glowy finish like J. Lo

♠ Lovely teen-ish effect result, youll look younger in this color

Cons

♠ this kind of packaging can be seen in Tony Moly and other Korean brands too

♠ not that pigmented you have to put on 2-3 times to make it visible

♠ the lasting power is very usual..1-2hrs i think or 3hrs depends on the weather..i live in philippines hot and rainy all the time.

Conclusion

i love this color combined with the etude lip below, it gives a youthful glow so i like this despite the cons ;) the price is P328 pesos / $7.63

Will i repurchase?

nah..i want to buy something else from Etude and this will last me like a very long time ;)

Practical way to clean Makeup Brushes

This time i cleaned my two Bobbi Brown Powder brush, BB Blush Brush, Sigma Blender brush (not in the pic though) Sigma Miss Taylor (which toke forever to dry)

-i used Johnson and Johnson Baby Shampoo

its very much recommended by D.G.S.Beauty, and Val. and also ive seen one or two youtubers do use JJ as a brush cleaner. i just wash them twice or till its clean.

-when im done cleaning a brush i place it on a towel till im done with them all

-i hanged them on the terrace, upside down. 

also i didnt put them directly in front of the sun because it will damage them. it was actually a gloomy rainy day when i cleaned them. Dont use clippers it will damage the brush. we have a rope for hanging clothes but its made with holes to fit the hangers, i just placed the brushes in the holes lolz

-when they are almost dry i placed them in curlers

like what ive seen from a Youtuber from Hong Kong Jasmine http://syuri-ya.blogspot.com/

you can make them stand or place them on a towel, this way it will keep the brush bristles original shape.

important: make sure the brushes are completely dry before storing them or it will mold eek!

optional: use a brush guard when completely dry, to protect ur brushes from dirt and keep them in perfect shape. store them in your pouch, keeping them on the table might cause some dust to get on your brushes and when you use them..pimples! worst scenario

i super duperrr highly recommend using J&J shampoo for cleaning your brushes, mine felt like new! and super soft i cant stop using the brushes after lolz XD

One of the Top Sellers in Sigma :D


Pros:
♥ Pretty Kawaii Purple Packaging X3
♥ Super soft Bristles
♥ Much affordable than MAC brushes, they are twice the price
♥ just lovely to put in your makeup kit/pouch/bag
♥ can be used for almost everything (i have not tried it on liquid because the brush will get dirty in no time)



Cons:
♥ the print on the packaging i think will wipe out easily so i keep the plastic cover.
♥ it did shed when washed but just a piece or two so no worries
♥ dries like forever hehe


Bottom Line:
i recommend this! its so nice! and its just like the F80 brush but only in a kabuki travel size
although i think it eats up more product than a usual brush? or it is just me..hehe
i really want to try other Sigma Brushes but who needs tons of brushes hehe i only have 1 face XD

Sigma E25 travel blending brush (Review)

Sigma E25 Travel Blending Brush

Oval-shaped brush with gently chiseled sides. Blends and softens the look of powder or cream shadows. Ideal to apply eye shadow primer, base eye shadow colors, and blend harsh lines.

Above: Sigma Brush | Below: Bobbi Brown/BB

Comparison:

-both are equally soft

-Sigma is much bulky and heavier but that actually makes it much easier to work with since my Bobbi brush is so tiny

-i like sigma brush better since its much dense and bigger but ill use my BB for smaller corners :)

What i like:

-cheaper than other brands
-doesn't shed

-soft

-bigger than my BB brush so its better for some looks in blending

-easier to use than my BB brush

-super pretty handle

What i Don't Like:

-not huge fan of goat hair but other than that i love everything else

-heavier than my BB brush

Price: US $9.00 / Php 382.95
