Wayne Goss’ #12 Paddle shaped cashmere soft but dense base
This large, cashmere soft, paddle shaped brush is the perfect companion to use with my Natasha Denona Sculpting palette. I hadn’t found a palette to match my skin undertones until ND’s. (Just A quick plug on ND’s palette) !
I received my WG’s #12 sculpting brush in my Beautylish Chinese New Year pkg. I had never noticed this brush before. It’s now one of my most used brushes.
It's my Home-Run Trifecta/Quinfecta brush. I use a microfiber towel to wipe clean in between colors/textures. I can sculpt (Cream) my face, contour nose & under my chin, blend, apply shimmer(powder) to my décolletage & shoulders & bronze & set with powder. I genuinely love this multi-use brush. Thanks to Wayne Goss once again & Beautylish.
NATASHA DENONA'S GOLDEN SCULT & GLOW PALETTE - LOVING IT!
This is my New Perfect Palette from NATASHA DENONA and I have no idea why I waited so long!!! This is a must-have for my makeup arsenal. The above picture doesn’t show just how beautifully designed it is. (sorry Beautylish)
I’ve tried many brands of bronzers, sculpting & glow products. They were either too light, too dark, streaky, dry or didn’t work with my skin’s undertones. Then I found this baby. This fabulous palette is one of my LATEST BEAUTY LOVES & My New Go to Palette. It’s a multi-use palette that can be used for bronzing, contouring, sculpting, blush, eye shadow, shimmer for the décolleté & a silky setting powder.
ND’s palette has a Golden Reflective exterior with a large interior mirror & an interior plastic protector for the top row of creams. The bottom row L-R include one silky powder & 2 buildable powders). I’m glad I went with the color Med-Dark because it can be built up or toned down. My skin color is l-m depending on the season and this was a perfect fit.
I tested it out by using additional products in the picture I posted below. I used my Wayne Goss' #12 brush, (Liquid, Cream & Powder brush), courtesy of Beautylish' Chinese New Year Pkg. It worked perfectly with this palette. I started w/cleansed, toned skin. Applied a serum. Then used a combo of Kevyn Aucoin's concealer & a bit of his primer to thin out certain areas. I didn’t use any face makeup. The rest of my S<B<C<S process was pretty easy. I used a WG brush for eyeshadow and used the #12 again to lightly set...Easy Peasy.... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PALETTE...❤️
Great washcloth for dry facial skin or shower washcloth
I use this to cleanse my Face with Paula’s choice, Eve Lom or Charlotte Tilbury’s Mask/Cleanser Balm. One side is muslin and the other side of the wash cloth is soft Terry cloth. I use a mild soap & this mild washcloth in the shower.... 5 out of 5
I need a Brush Display Holder/& or Curio Cabinet for Sonia G’s Make up brushes!
My brain honestly hit an air pocket on how to articulate the attributes of these brushes! From the satiny hairs, to the easy application & performance along with the graduated hand assembled natural hairs. Be back at you as Swatches/pictures speak a thousand words... I have purchased all the available eye brushes and the number 2 face brush. Wayne Goss, You are still my top shelf GO-TO and I continue to love your products.
A luxury body set for a Special Someone
I'm attached to the Oribe brand. The signature scent is simply tantalizing. Bergamot is mentioned as an ingredient, which I love in as a citrusy note but the remaining notes are like a variation of the original Musk scent. Remember musk oil from back in the day...?
The Oribe hair products are a bit pricey but trust me they are lux & have something for every hair type. It works wonders on my thick, wavy & unruly hair. A few of my favs are the Clarifying Shampoo & Conditioner, the Beach spray, the Hair Refresher, the Scented Dry shampoo, the Scented Body Oil & the Hair Shine spray. Love this boxed set with 2 full sized products, body cream & body shampoo & a purse sized roller ball perfume with the signature scent.
A Special Setting Powder That's KIND to Smile lines & Pores
This gold Mirrored compact is everything. I feel special having this gold compact adorn my purse & vanity.
Charlotte Tilbury outdid herself when she created this powder formula that is wonderfully light in texture with a silky feel. It never feels heavy & doesn't cake into dry areas or lines. It's a great setting powder for skin that has a few more laugh lines than others & Also skin that is wrinkle free!
For my first test on using this powder, I pulled out my Wayne Goss's 2017 Holiday Brush (a airy long hair brush). I dipped & circled twice into the powder compact & then dipped into a peach shade of face highlighter. Yes I this mixed this with highlighter. I lightly worked the T zone and super lightly under the eyes. (I usually don't set under my eyes because lines can become more pronounced depending on the concealer & powder) The effect was a beautiful blurr of the under eye skin and left my skin with a muted down glow. Awesome! The 2nd time I used Kevyn Aucoin's Blush brush (much denser) and used powder only tapping off the excess. I bounced it into the skin, concentrating on the nose & forehead areas. Still nice. I've used a Laura Mercier powder puff also & blotted it into the skin. Once again it worked well. I have also applied this under my chin and around my neck on more humid days. I'm not a heavy user of facial powder and if I do use powder, I'm partial to Kevin Aucoin's facial powders because they are simply the best (in my opinion). However, Charlotte Tilbury has earned a spot on my vanity!
Oribe's Sultry Signature Scent that envelops you in a wonderful aura.
A quick pick me up to freshen your hair (& senses) that is Oribe's signature scent....musk notes with sandlewood...? It reminds me of love...Pure & simple...It's a beautiful scent that most will love. The can is purse size but you just need a quick spritz to wake up the senses...
Ten Stars 🌟 & 2 Thumbs Up For A Fabulous Skin Cream
Initially I circled round this brand checking out the eye pencils first....Great... The brow definer grooming tint..(Arrived dried out) Defective product?...Don't Really Know. So I was wary to venture further.
I Finally took the plunge and ordered this Magic Cream...
Most importantly my skin was dermaplaned first, so the top layer of my skin was free of dead skin cells & fine hairs. I lightly spritzed my face, after cleansing & dotted a small amount to my cheeks and chin & forehead gently working into my skin & neck. The following morning my skin glowed ...Literally Glowed and was SUPER soft & looked Plumped. My husband has remarked more than once on how nice my skin looks. I've moved on to purchasing my second jar & also invested in the eye cream & night cream. I know it's pricey but it's a concentrated cream with a pleasant scent that lives up to it's name....Magical Cream!
Beautiful Brown Wash of Pigmented Eye Tint Shadows
Mona Lisa is a beautiful, reflective wash of brown for the lids & under eyes. This creamy shadow sets in seconds and is super concentrated. It only takes a tiny amount of this waterproof product to make up your eyes. You can use as a base for another shadow or a quick Eye fix for rushed mornings. Pop on & go...No fuss, No muss. Use your finger to tap on or use Kevyn Aucoin's Eye Pigment Applicator. The silicone applicator works great with this creamy mousse textured eye pigment/shadow.
