You know how all of the magazines and experts say to use specific brushes to apply specific makeup (i.e. a blush brush for rouge, a lip brush for gloss, etc…), and when you try to cram them all into your cosmetics bag they never EVER seem to all fit? Sooooo, you resort to toting one brush (maybe a foundation brush) to save space and use it to apply everything—from your lipstick to your eyeshadow—while a little voice whispers in your ear: “You know this is not hygienic whatsoever, dontcha?”
We OBVIOUSLY have some experience with this, thus were floored when we scooped Japonesque’s Artist Tools Starter Set and attachments. Check it out: The starter set comes with a dual ended magnetic handle (genius, right?!), foundation brush, and an angled eyeliner brush. You can then purchase other magnetic brush heads.

The official start of summer is Monday, Memorial Day (YAYYYYYY!), and with that comes a season full of ponytails and plaits—anything to keep cool.

In fact, it isn’t a braid at all.

Summer can be pretty miserable for hair and skin, how do you cope?
I use bronzer instead of blush. I also try to condition my hair more so that it isn’t dried out by the sun. I’ll use a lighter weight moisturizer on my face with spf and I carry around rice paper to blot any oil that my skin will produce due to the warmer weather.
The long weekend is almost here…it’s okay to get a little crazy!
Headed out of town for Memorial Day? It’s always a puzzle trying figure out exactly what to pack—especially in your makeup bag. Our theory is, the safer the better. So if we’re going to haul more that we really need, it’s probably best to pack small. We went to Lily Garfield, founder of the beauty apothecary The Cos Bar, for tips on what not to leave behind. Plus a few perfectly sized travel items from her new Shops at Target collection. Happy packing!
