Hi Guys! I know it's been forever and a hot minute since my last post! Things have been so busy between work and the kids and the new house! I definitely feel more settled into our new home. We bought our first house in December 2010 and began major renovations in January 2011. Most of the renovations were complete by March 2011 and we were able to move by the end of March, early April. I've been doing small projects around the house and scouring around looking for the perfect decorative pieces, but I definitely am feeling like it's home. There are still little projects that I want to tackle (like painting our garage and making cushions for my walk in closet!) but at the moment I am definitely enjoying it and proud of the home I've created.
I'm still continuing to focus on weight loss and physicial fitness. Although I have to admit I haven't been running as often as I would like to or should. I signed up for bikram yoga classes! I scored an amazing deal on livingsocial.com where I purchased 20 Bikram Yoga classes for $20!! It was an amazing deal considering 1 Bikram Yoga class is $18! The only catch with this deal is that it's only for the location in Astoria, Queens. It's 45 minutes from my house so it's a hike to get down there, but for the 90 minute class and how my body looks and feels after, totally worth it. I coerced a co-worker who lives next to me to sign up with me so we decided now to go from the office in Great Neck and we would take turns driving out there. It's truly worth it. I've taken now 6 classes and I can already see a difference in my shape! I'm definitely into Bikram!! And at 153 pounds I'm definitely getting closer to my 145 pound goal!
Ok, so enough with the banter! Let's get down to the real deal! I've purchased a few makeup products that I want to talk about, but for this post I wanted to focus on the MAC 109 brush.
This brush is fantastic! I've only had it for about a week and I've used it for applying my Studio Tech foundation (NC 43) as well as applying Blunt blush to contour my cheeks. It make the foundation look really smooth, I'm really loving it for that as well as for applying my contour powder.
The dislike: it does shed. But, perhaps this could be due to the fact that I didn't wash it before I used it. I was so excited to get started that I didn't do that. I'm actually going to wash it tonight and see if that makes a difference. Overall, I am very pleased with this brush, definitely a must have for your collection!
What are your thoughts on this brush? How do you use it?
Until next time...
Sending positive thoughts your way...
