I love it!
Is it jelly or a cream?
Can it be both?
I don't know!

4x Sinful Colors RUBY RUBY
1x NK Fast Dry Top Coat

Oh well!

Throwback Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Sally Hansen BROWNSTONE CREME
I love neutrals!
This borders on "Mannequin Hands" for me.
It's so unique, it's almost "UGLY". I still like it.

I thought I was going to have to shop for this color.
Lo' and behold, I found it in my stash of oldies but goodies!
Do you have anything like this in your stash?

MAC 217 Brush - What's All the Hype?
I am a bargain shopper by nature. Even if I may have the money to buy a high end item, there is a checklist of prerequisites that must be met before I invest in it. That having been said, I did my due diligence researching the 217 brush. After careful consideration, I added it to my arsenal of brushes.
Website Promises
"For shading or blending of colour or creamy products. This brush has fine, densely packed fibers that are arranged in an oval shape. M·A·C professional brushes are hand-sculpted and assembled using the finest quality materials. They feature wood handles and nickel-plated brass ferrules."
I love this brush. I can achieve the same blending by using four other less expensive brushes.
However, I can complete an entire look using just this one brush. This saves me a lot of time.
That alone makes it worth the investment. I have been using it for a month.
Here's the breakdown
PROS
Shedding is minimal.
Washes well.
Can be used with creams and powders.
Light weight handle.
CONS
Stains, but one can educate one's self on the proper cleaning of this type of brush. A cleanse off oil may remove stains.
Price $22.50 OUCH!
If you invest in no other expensive eyeshadow brush, this is the one you MUST HAVE in your tool kit.
Do you own this brush? Is it on your Wish List?
