People are always asking me to recommend make up brushes. I use many different brands dependant on which feature Im working on. A general one I highly recommend are eco tools make up brushes. They are good quality,easy to clean and easy to keep. They are not the most expensive brushes but they are excellent value.
They are perfect for beginners as they are so easy to maintain and clean. However in my work I use Eco tools, Mac and Lancome brushes.

The best place to buy cheap cosmetics.

I travel from Ireland to Spain on a regular basis. There is a big difference between the prices we pay in Ireland and the prices we pay in Spain. Rimmel is excellent value in Spain in comparison to Ireland. I mentioned before the scandal eyes mascarais good value in Spain compared to Ireland.Foundation is also 5 euros compared to 9.95 in Ireland. On high end products you can save about fifteen percent on your products. The secret to getting even cheaper cosmetics in Spain is go toan area that has not got much tourism and visit their grocery store. I did this on my last visit to spain and got amazing value. I have tried a few spanish make up brands because they were cheap and I have a sense of adventure! However the quality just did not seem to be there. One product I was extremely excited about when i came across was this. Its just like a regular moisturiser but I was excited to use it. This was only 6 euros. I vote Spain as number 3 on my top places to buy cheap cosmetics and get value for money.

My favourite mascara. Scandal Eyes Rimmel

This is one product that I buy over and over again. Its not the most expensive mascara but it is brilliant quality. Make up artists love Scandal Eyes mascara because you can apply the mascara lightly, then curl the eyelashes and then add lots of coats of mascara. It does not crumble or look clumpy like other mascaras. In Ireland it is usually 8.95. I visit Spain regularly and when I am there I stock up on it as it only costs just 5 euro there.

My first beauty blog.

I have decided to do a blog on my favourite beauty products and tricks that make up artists use to get clients looking picture perfect. I want to put up some honest reviews of things I like and what I actually use. I have being working in the beauty industry for years and am currently a free lance make up artist. My main thing is having honest reviews because lately I have read a few reviews on products and when I have actually purchased the products I have discovered that they are not worth getting. Although I am a make up artists I will do reviews on other beauty products that I like.
