Beauty Trend - Lip Stain

Lately I've been completely obsessed with lip stains. Not only are they super easy to use and long wearing but they can easily double as other products that you may not be carrying in your purse.  If you don't know what lip stains are, they literally do what the name says - they stain your lips, cheeks or wherever you might choose to put them.  With all the different brands now offering stains the color options are literally endless! I usually pick a color that's a little more towards red, that way I can use the stain not only for my lips but also for my cheeks - allowing me to leave my blush at home.

Here are the brands I've used and am in love with! Believe me, this will be your next must have!

Beauty Tips - Face Brushes

Brushes are super important during a makeup routine.  You can have the most amazing cosmetics and expensive products, but if you don't know how to apply them...well...they become pretty useless.  I just recently went shopping for new brushes at Sephora and found myself extremely confused by all the different types, sizes and styles of brushes.  So I decided to do a little research, and found a great article on brushes by The Beauty Department.

The first post will be about face brushes, I will then have two more posts coming up this week about cheeks and eye brushes.  Once this little series is over you can run to a beauty store near you and grab all the brushes you've never known what to do with before but secretly always wanted! Just like I did!

Here's what each brush is for:
