Remember my beauty loot from the Makeup Show?

Today I want to talk about two items that came from the same place.
One of the things that I loved that makeup artist Sam Fine told me in that podcast I did a while ago was that you have to have great brushes in order to really work with any makeup. Brushes really do make a big difference in your beauty routine. You all already know how much I love brushes because I swooned over and got the Sephora Prestige Makeup Brush Set for Christmas, but I’m always looking at different brushes to add to my arsenal. At the Makeup Show I almost died when I saw the long table of brushes for sale at Crown Brush.

There was every brush imaginable and I picked up four. Two foundation brushes (I wanted to try different sizes and shapes), a huge fluffy powder brush and another eye shadow brush and all of them were from the Backstage Series which is about their midpriced series. Did I mention the prices are wonderful? That huge fluffy powder brush was $8.50. Uh huh…and that kind of brush I would easily drop $20-$30 for depending on the store I bought it in. Ah-Mazing.
The other amazing thing I picked up from their booth that I’ve been asked about a lot is that amazingly large eye shadow palette. 88 shades for $19. I have had so much fun playing with a different eye look every single morning. I emailed the folks at Crown Brush to ask where the palette can be purchased online, although they don’t have it listed you can call in and order it from them and two other palettes! They offer:
- 88C – 88 color eyeshadow $19.95
- 78C – 78 color eyeshadow and blush $19.95
- 88sh – 88 color eyeshadow shimmer $29.95 (I want to buy this one next)
One fantastic company with two fabulous finds. Do not buy makeup brushes from anywhere else. You will not be disappointed in the quality or the price.
