EcoTools ♥

This is kind of a review but I'm not thorough enough for one of those so this is more of just a rave.

 Hello EcoTools. 
You are my favorite brushes ever. Better than MAC. Cheaper than MAC.
Before I purchased these my brush collection just consisted of MAC.  I love MAC, I was a fangirl but these knock MAC's brushes out of the park.  Now there are still a few MAC brushes I love (217 and 134) the rest are just eh.  Here is a list of why I love my EcoTools more than MAC.

No Shedding
I HATE shedding. Hate it.  Number of Ecotool hairs shed = 0. Number of MAC = a kagillion and counting.

Super Soft
Emphasis on the super.  Not one of my MAC brushes compares.

Synthetic and Ecofriendly
I like the sustainable part of these brushes and no animal cruelty!

They are Inexpensive
For 5 brushes, the travel set cost $12 for me. That's approximately $2.50 each.  So worth that price.

Negative is that some of the brushes don't have a lot of use for me.  Since they come in sets you can't choose which brush you want so you could be stuck with some useless brush.


This one is worth it all.  It is the perfect blush brush. So, so, so, so soft. It applies really well and also is the perfect size to apply blush. It comes in the Bamboo 6 Piece Brush Set.

Go here, find how to buy them. You will not regret it.


Does anyone recommend any other synthetic brushes?

Makeup Organization



There it is.
My freshly organized (never going to stay this way) makeup collection.  I really love to organize so I bought a bamboo cutlery tray by Bamboo Island from T J Maxx.  I still don't have a place for my brushes so they're just going to keep laying on my dresser.  

I love having all my makeup in eyesight when I get ready in the morning and it's pretty to look at. The thing I don't like about this is that my mineralize skin finishes don't fit perfectly and have to be angled a bit but I'll live with it for a few months until I decide to get a new organization system:)

I'm still getting used to blogspot again so I accidentally deleted all of the comments on the last post. But thank you for all the nice comments and welcomes.
