Aquafresh Iso-Active Toothpaste

http://www.aquafresh.com/IsoActive.aspx


So a couple of months ago I received a test sample of the Aquafresh Iso-Active toothpaste. For those of you who care about your breath and teeth this is a great new toothpaste. It has great foaming action. Anyways, I do absolutely like this product the only down side is the packaging. After you press the top and put the cap back on, the next time you use the toothpaste some product will be oozing out. =(

NEW STILA MAKEUP BRUSHES

So I bought some new Stila makeup brushes. You get 5 brushes for $25.00. They're long handled brushes and I thought that was a great deal. Yes it is and NO it's so not worth it. If you LOVE STILA then by all means get them, that's a great deal on some brushes. So you get:

#2 Under Eye Concealer Brush

#4 Precision Eyeliner Brush

#9 All Over Blending Brush

#11 Face Concealer Brush

#24a Powder Brush

So the blending brush appears to be similar to the 224 believe me it's not unless mine was a defect which I doubt. The brushes are long and is not very dense. It feels like a painting brush. So does the precision eye liner brush. And it's pretty thick not thin enough to do some cat wing stuff. The powder brush and concealer brush are alright. I do really like the powder brush but I DO NOT like the quality of the bristles. They seem really cheap.

FOUNDATION, PRIMER, CONCEALER EXPERIMENT

So on November 30 I went to the dermatologist for the first time in my life or at least that I can remember and the Doctor told me that a way that I can test my makeup to see if it's going to be good for me is to test the foundation on paper and if you see oil spreading around it then it's most likely oil based and not suitable for my skin. Of course you can also read the ingredients of the foundation or product and see it any of the first 5 products is WATER!

So I did my little experiment today and I will list which products are what. I did do this on paper used for printers (lol) and paper towels. Now the paper towels did not really show anything for the foundation but it did for the primers. But keep in mind that primers don't usually have color.
