Beauty Tools to be Beautiful

Certainly, beauty comes with a price. You want to look and feel beautiful- spend! Well excuse me for those who believe that beauty is only skin deep; that’s sheer sourgraping.

Anyway, if you think that make-ups (along with procedures) are the answer, then think again ‘coz these paints are nothing without these tools.


Here’s a list of items that should be added in make-up kit.


Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler ($18)

One thing that makes the eyes shine are the lashes. So if you could make your lashes really, really long, then you’re a definite winner. And how else could you make that extra length but with this eyelash curler by Shu Uemura.


To use, position your elbow on a solid surface and place the curler at the base of your lashes, press the handles together and hold for a few seconds, release, and viola! Sexy curls in seconds.


Sonia Kashuk Foundation Sponge ($6)

One rule of thumb in applying make-up: the foundation does the secret. So if you want to apply your foundation perfectly, use a perfect foundation sponge that would better navigate the creases in your face.


Just run it under water, squeeze out and dab it in your foundation.


Clarins Eye Contour Brush ($24)

The eyes do all the wonder. So if you manage to blend your eye shadow perfectly, then you’re ready to steal the limelight. But to do that you’ll need fine tipped brush that would do the blending in the crease and outer corners of your eyes.


This tool is also perfect for that smoky eye look.


Christian Dior Backstage Makeup Oil Blotting Paper ($21)

No excess oil is welcome for a fresh morning look. Just dab one blotting paper onto skin and let it soak everything up!


Nars Kabuki Botan Brush ($75)

This tool do all the tricks for swooshing mineral makeup, blush, powder, highlighter, and everything powder-y!


The brush is large enough to perfectly define your cheekbones.


Well these are just some of the tools you should have to get that perfect beautiful look. And yes, they all come with price tags.
