My order from Sephora.com just arrived and I confess -- I'M IN LOVE! Behold my new philosophy® Supernatural Retractable Blush Brush. A natural hair* brush that folds down to a little over 4" long and fits beautifully in my makeup bag.
Earlier this year, when I was on my fantabulous spa vacation, I got not so much a makeover as a makeup refresher. The way I had been doing my face was a bit dated, and esthetician Lauryn laid down the law: no more mascara on my lower lashes and blush is mandatory. I've been trying to follow her edicts, but the brushes that come with powder blushes are so uniformly crappy that I haven't been able to touch it up during the day.
No more. From here on out, this ol' Gal will be as pink-cheeked as she was in her long-ago, dewy youth.
* I can't help but notice they don't specify what kind of "natural hair." I'm trying not to dwell on this.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Bet you could slap a fly with that brush, ah but neigh that you should...
ReplyDeleteNow I'm going to be thinking about my brush. But I love the mineral stuff powder, so much nicer than liquid foundation. Enjoy!!
natural boar bristles are usually soft so I'm betting that great soft brush is Boar hair.
ReplyDeleteI love having fun with new makeup too. enjoy it! :))
