Nutritional Knits

Oh, yah... because blogs are better with pictures...

 

Perfect little stocking stuffer...I gave this to Joe to put under the tree. I love MAC collections and mini-kits!  I also love the Jessica Claire Shootsacs.  I have been waiting for a sale to pick up the cover I've been coveting and finally got it plus a second cover that I loved.  Great sale!

My New Makeup from Sigma

I love makeup.  It's fun... there are so many different colors to chose from and play with.  I like to try different style to see what I like and what is flattering on me.  Most of my eye shadows are from MAC and Stilla.  I have a few bare escentuals colors but I don't think they stay on very well, even with a shadow primer.  I am always looking for a new brand if it gets good reviews.  Good brushes are important too.  Once I changed my brushes my makeup application became easier and more fluid.

pink... I chose pink brushes over black?!?

I've been dying to try the Sigma brushes... most of what I have are MAC and a few Bare Escentuals.  Seeing TiffanyD's recent review on a bunch of Sigma products turned the tide for me and I placed my first Sigma order.  I prefer travel sized brushes so I was happy to see the collection available in the travel kit (which is available in black or pink).  I also received two free brushes (at the top) for my purchases.  I really debated between purchasing the red satin bag or the black and as you can see the black won.  The red sure is pretty though!  I chose the pink brushes because they appealed to me (first time! pink!) and so that I could quickly differentiate between them and my MAC brushes, which are black. 

I also wanted to try the neutral eye shadow collection from their new On The Go kits.  I like the shimmer of these colors -plus I find shimmery powders stay on longer.  These are a bit sparkly but can be toned down. I almost purchased the Smokey kit but was really intrigued by the Indian Girl color in this pallet.  I love it and I love the Brown Eyed Girl as well.  They are dark and dusky and gray-ish. 

Wearing them today... LOVE them!

This is good stuff.  My photography doesn't do the color justice so watch Tiffany's review on the products and then watch her make-up tutorials (brushes too!) for the different color pallets.  Those are now featured on the Sigma site for each On The Go kit.
