I got my Lumiere travel brish set today. It seems smaller to me than what I imagined, but perfect for my Walt Disney World Trips (I am also a huge WDW addict, check out the DIS boards if you like visiting the “mouse” too). I imagine that I will get the most use out of the powder brush, blush brush and crease brush.

Speaking of brushes, has anyone tried TKB’s new brushes? I would like to try the Goat Hair buffer. The price is really good at $2.75 (this is just the intro price, I think they will go up). Also their Kabuki is $3.50 (also intro price), this might be a good option for someone starting out, or as a gift (if you are trying to get someone else addicted LOL). I am really interested in the quality of these brushes.

mystash.jpg I always like seeing other peoples storage and tools. I’m always on the look out for more things to spend my hard-earned money on (aren’t we all ). I decided to post up my storage and brushed in the hopes that others will join in with their pics. Here is my storage case, right now I am using a Caboodle that I’ve had since I was 13 making it about…well let’s just say a few years old. The other case you see is a little tackel/craft box I bout at the dollar store, I use it to store my own creations.


Here are my brushes:

mystash3.jpgOn the top row is my Rimmel Kabuki & Lumiere Kabuki, from left to right on the bottom row is my Put Minerals Chisel brush, Clinique smudger, Pur Minerals Powder brush, some random eyeshadow brush, Clinique Blush brush, Everyday Minerals Flat Top, generic eyeshadow, American Painter #6 brush (which doesn’t work well for wet application which is what I bought it for), 2 more generic brushes, & an American Painter 4300 Shader (which is awsome for wetlining).Well, there is my storage and tool stash, It’s not too big yet but it’s growing pretty darn fast!On a different note;
I can’t believe that I missed Meow’s Fathers Day sale! I’ve been lusting after a Flawless Munchkin (what non-MMU people must be thinking I’m talking about )
