My Thoughts On The Revlon Spa Set Vs The Expensive Brands

I'm all about taking good care of my face, as I'm sure all Women are. However, I don't want to have to take out a Bank Loan to be good to my skin...

Clairasonic: I'm sure it's a great Brush but, at $200.00-$300.00 +Tax... I pass.

Derma New Facial Rejuvenation System: $70.00 +Tax & Shipping...Nope

Infomercials: Various about $60.00-$50.00...Better but still a No.

Sun Labs Brush Set: $30.00 +Tax & Shipping...close but, No Cigar.

With prices ranging from $300.00 down to $30.00 I was less than impressed.


Now, my choice: The Revlon Spa Set.





This set is 10 pieces, the handle with normal/gentle speeds, a face brush, a body brush, a face sponge, a face lotion roller brush, a head band, a terry cloth back exfoliater, a wooden hand paddle massager, Tea Tree Gel, Tea Tree Candle & a Wire Basket to store it all in.

This set has everything I need to do the job right & be kind to my skin...The grand total for my set...$10.00. Now that is a price I can live with & have money left over for other things.

Pls, feel free to comment & share your thoughts.

Let's Talk Brushes

MAC Makeup Brushes:

So, I have a love - hate relationship with my MAC Makeup Brushes. I have a feeling most ppl who buy them do...LOL. They are probably the best brushes you can use which is where I have my love for them but, they cost so damn much...which is way I hate them.





I'm sure you have seen YouTube reviews, Blog postings & Pics galore of these brushes. This is just one more pic out there on the internet...of mine. at the top of the pic to the left is my MAC Brush Roll, an item I highly recommend to anyone who has a MAC Brush Collection, or is just starting to buy them. I just wish it was bigger, you will find as I have that there just isn't enough space in the Brush Roll to hold all your Brushes...I need to buy another one probably 2 more :(


On the top right of the pic is my MAC Brush Tool-Belt another recommended item. it is great for holding your Brushes while you are applying cosmetics to others. it does hold alot more Brushes then the Roll but, if you choose to store your Brushes that way, it doesn't help to keep them clean from dust & dirt in the air & you will have to deep clean them more often, plus I am a smoker so I prefer not to leave my MAC Brushes out to the air.

These Brushes are a few of the ones I purchased from M's Makeup Emporium on eBay (I talked about her store in a prior posting) The #184 & #179








Sorry that the images aren't clear enough to read the Brush numbers, for some reason I just can't get enough clarity from the pictures & I can't figure out how to turn the flash off. That's probably why I haven't gotten a web-cam yet...I'm to damn electroniclly challanged...LOL
