****Love that silly pic my bf did!!!

Products Used:
Stilla One Step Foundation in Light

Nars Face Powder in Flesh

I bought this online at http://www.allcosmeticswholesale.com/ because it was $19.99!!! That's 55% off the original price of $44.00.  So since I was ordering online, I decided it would be best to go to Ulta and find my shade before buying it.  I usually don't buy foundation online but since this was a steal, I had too! 

As for the foundation it has a great feel to it but I didn't think it was a buildable as one step.  I always use concealer and in this case it was no different.  It gave a great smooth finish but I was still skeptical of not setting it with a powder.  So I used Nars Loose Face Powder in Flesh.  It gave me a great matte finish and it went well with the Still foundation.  I personally don't see this as ONE step but three.  It did not take long to apply and it was extremely blendable.  I would buy this again as a foundation....but just a foundation.

New Sigma Brushes



The new Sigma Brushes were released last Monday Feb. 22, I was in the market to upgrade on brushes a few weekends before the release and I was going to buy all mac but the spring collation came out and brushes were forgotten. I did kick myself for passing up the opportunity to grab some new brushes when I had some money. So a week or so rolled buy and I got an e-mail from Sigma saying that they have a new line of brushes coming out! What Luck! I had bought the previous full pack of brushes from them and I knew I wouldn't be disappointed with what I bought.




The set is $149.99. With that you get 15 brushes, the brush roll/ holder, and I also got a freebie travel size brush.


The Freedie!
