It all starts with the tools

I don’t like recommending products until I have tried them for a good while, but it’s been more than three months since I won the Prescriptives Curvilinear Cheek Brush in the Beauty Snob contest, and I’ve got to tell you - I’m hooked. I haven’t used another since I first unpacked it from its box. The brush conforms to the angle of your cheek giving you the perfect sweep. As someone who was turned onto make-up relatively late in life (I know, I know — it’s called aging), I have been scouring books trying to find the best way to apply make-up and constantly read beauty blogs to perfect my application. One coaches wife on our staff always looks flawless and I just want to sit at her feet every morning to see how she does it. One thing I learned several years ago is that you have to have good tools to apply products. You can purchase the most expensive products from NorthPark at Neiman Marcus, but if you are using the applicator that came with the product, it’s just not going to look good. The coach wouldn’t send his team out to play in the in the state championship game with a football he bought off the shelf at a discount store, and you don’t need to cheat yourself when it comes to your arsenal of brushes. Available at Prescriptives for $30. I think I may go back for the foundation brush when they advertise a GWP (gift with purchase.)
