The Ultimate Makeup Brush Guide for Every Girl

Whether you’re an amateur in the world of makeup, consider yourself a pro, or fall somewhere in between, figuring out what brushes you need (and their uses) will forever be an exhausting and somewhat confusing process. With countless types, shapes and sizes — flat, fluffy, pointed, angled, fanned, natural, synthetic — a gal’s gotta go through quite the amount of research and dozens of makeup aisles to get her kit together. But there’s no one-size-fits-all brush collection, as our skills (and patience!) varies. That’s why put together a tailored brush guide specific to your daily needs — from just the basics to one that’s fully loaded!
Makeup Brush Guide 

The Makeup Rookie 

Let’s be honest, you’re not one to get crazy with the makeup. A little BB cream, some blush, maybe a swipe of mascara or two, and you’re out the door! That is A-OK if you ask us. But, why not perfect it with some staple tools? Instead of using your fingers to blend everything in, get yourself a solid foundation and blush brush for an airbrushed, flawless finish. Proper blending is the key to a natural, “no-makeup” makeup look, so trust us when we say these essentials will change everything. And to keep things easy for ya, an eye shadow brush that can be used for powder, cream or liquid-based eye makeup is ideal for a no-fuss gal like yourself!

The Well-Rounded Gal

It’s safe to say you know your stuff when it comes to makeup. You may not be an expert, but you put a bit more time into sculpting those cheekbones and perfecting your cat eye. Prepare your face for success by implementing the proper tools into your makeup routine. You don’t need all the bells and whistles, but if you’re gonna get dolled up on the daily for work, these picks will help you get it right — from your perfectly applied foundation and contoured nose, to your daytime smoky eyeand flawless liner.

The Self-Proclaimed Pro

You may as well quit your full-time job and start charging your friends for all the makeup advice and tips you give out.  A beauty stash like yours can compete with the pros! This is probably because you run to the makeup counter every time a new product drops, not to mention you’ve got every trendy eye shadow palette out there (Urban Decay | Gwen Stefani included) and a sea of worn-down lipsticks. A fanatic such as yourself should also have the proper brushes to achieve those makeup-artists approved looks you’re going for. Think, foundation that’s so perfect it looks like skin, to supermodel-status cheekbones, on-point brows and perfectly precise lipstick — all things no self-proclaimed pro should go without.

Hi BodyRockers, . Face it you are weird. In today’s world if you train like a warrior, flex your discipline when it comes to your diet, and pass on grazing on donuts in the break room at work chances are you are chided on some level by those around as being weird. Get used to it. Embrace the smell of your sweaty socks. Not many people make a daily practice out of pushing themselves beyond their comfort zones for one workout a day. Not many people step out of what is comfortable for themselves period. This is a niche movement. Not everyone will get why you train this way or why you train at all. Thankfully we don’t need anyones permission or approval, and if we are looking for support we have a place to go where people get it. Being weird requires a good measure of independ

How Air Pollution Is Damaging Your Health

Image
Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, vascular, and neurological impairments. The health effects vary greatly from person to person. High-risk groups such as the elderly, infants, pregnant women, and sufferers from chronic heart and lung diseases are more susceptible to air pollution. Children are at greater risk because they are generally more active outdoors and their lungs are still developing. Exposure to air pollution can cause both acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) health effects.
