~ Update for Queen's Cosmetics ~

Hello Little Ladies,

Time for an update to let you all know how progress is going with my cosmetics for the long awaited launch.

I will be collecting my products with my logo on (YAY!!!) by the end of this week.

Next I am waiting on my packaging to be finalised - the boxes that my make up will go in.

I am hoping and praying that the launch will happen by mid to the end of next month.

I am eager to 'get out there' with my cosmetics ~ but ~ as well as learning with my make up looks and techniques I have to also learn the value of PATIENCE!

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart (once again) for YOUR patience and I will surely let you know when my doors are open - not far away now! (squeal!) ;p

~ Make Up Brushes - What do I use?

Having Trouble Knowing

Which Brush To Use?

For The Eyes

There are 4 main brushes you should have for your eye makeup…..

This brush is used to pack on color to the lid. It needs to be flat so you can pat on the eyeshadow over your eye primer, and it needs to be stiff so it picks up plenty of colour.

This brush is used for creating the perfect smoky eye, for feathering in darker eyeshadows, and for applying more colour to the crease.

This brush is just like the stiff dome brush but much softer- it creates a much softer blended look. It is used for blending shadow under the brow, applying a softer amount of colour in the crease, and even for applying powder under the eyes to prevent that creasing throughout the day.

This brush is used for smudging eyeshadow under the lower lashline, for smudging eyeliner, or for creating a very defined crease. The smaller tip allows for more precise lines.

For The Face

There are really only a few brushes you need for the face- it really depends on what you wear.

This brush is used for stippling foundation onto the skin for a more airbrushed finish. The bristles need to be stiff in order to hold up to the foundation and not streak.

This brush is used for applying darker powder under the cheekbones to create a contoured effect- it makes the cheekbones stand out and your face look slimmer. This brush isn’t absolutely necessary unless you want to contour your cheekbones, but I recommend having if you are a makeup artist…

This brush is used for applying powder blush to the cheeks. It needs to be angled so the blush is easier to blend, and it needs to be soft so it doesn’t pick up too much colour.

This brush can be used for many things- light application of foundation, applying a small amount of blush to the cheeks, or for highlighting the top of the cheekbones. My favourite use is for highlighting as the bristles are soft and pick up little colour, and it is small enough to not cover the whole face with shimmer. This isn’t an absolute necessary brush for your kit, but definitely nice to have.

* I tend to use lipstick tubes rather than lip brushes as I find it easier - if using a lip brush it's only to touch up edges or corners. Just my personal preference :o)
