Make Up For Ever Flash Palette/ 12 Flash Color Case

When I was in Beauty School, my teacher Orlando Santiago told me if there's one thing I need in my kit, it is the Make Up For Ever Flash Palette.  Since then, I have heard this from many different amazing makeup artists.

My Favorite Brush (Lately)- Cover FX #160 Cream Foundation Brush

Ok, so those of you that have seen my kit know that I have TONS of brushes.
First off, I am a Shopaholic, so I buy a lot of brushes.
Secondly, I'm a Hoarder, so I don't throw my brushes out.
Thirdly, I LOOOVE brushes... so I have a lot.

So, although I have dozens of brushes, there is one that I want to introduce you to one that you probably don't have.

If you're not familiar with COVER FX, they are a cosmetic company known for their corrective makeup.  A lot of Pro's use this line for their full coverage makeup and it is (supposedly) "The Dermatologist's First Choice for Flawless Looking Skin".

I like the makeup for hard-core coverage, but more importantly, I LOVE their #160 Brush!

God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.  

~Jewish Proverb

Mother's Day used to be a really sad day for me.
It was hard because it was so close to the day that she died (5/7/01).
However, as I have learned to accept my mother's death, it's become a lot easier for me with each passing year.
Just a quick thanks to my friends that called or let me know they were thinking about me.
You guys are the best!  xoxo
