A little about me...

Hey :) My name is Sarah and yes and I am a make-up junkie, but first and foremost I am a wife. I created this blog because I love to write and share ideas with people. I wanted to combine a few of my passions, writing, make-up, fashion, lists, music, being a wife, into one fun outlet. Plus I have horrible insomnia so what better way to spend my nights :) I hope you enjoy and maybe even learn a thing or two. Thanks for stopping by!

Make-Up Site of the Day 1-25-11 - Pro Kit Info

www.inthekit.com

This site was written by a professional make-up artist for other pro's, but the information provided is great for any make-up lovers.

This has the be the best site for information on what to store in your kit. There are so many products out there, and just because it is great for personal use doesn't mean it will work for your kit. This website gives you examples for everything from exfoliates to lip liners. It's very well organized and it's updated often.

Here's a great excerpt from the website:
"REALITY CHECK:  Most major cosmetic companies (corporations) spend millions of dollars on eye catching packaging, exotic ingredients, luxuriously beautiful bottles and sleek stylish compacts. They make bold statements with provocative advertising.  They BUY "unbiased" editorial coverage by giving magazine publishers BIG advertising dollars.  They also BUY the devotion of beauty editors by showering them with free products and expensive gifts. (If you were wondering who pays for all of this bribery...LOOK IN THE MIRROR)"

Make-Up Site Of The Day 1-23-11

I'm going to be starting a new thing on this blog, make-up sites of the day. I am a huge fan of browsing the interwebs for fun new sites. Have quite a list compiled, I would like to share them with as many of you as possible. I will tell you what it is and why I like it, with some cons thrown in there if applicable of course.

First up!

http://www.camerareadycosmetics.com/home.php

This is a site I discovered quite a while ago while searching for professional make-up artist supplies. It carries all the great brands such as Graftobia, Beauty Blender and Alcone. Prices are reasonable, and they do offer a pro discount. Free shipping on orders over $60 and they have specials every now and then so make sure you sign up for the newsletter. The sites easy to navigate, a bit primitive but it's got the basics. Check it out!
