Milani Supreme Kohl Kajal Eyeliner/ Urban Decay 24/7 Dupe but better

Kat Von D Contour Brush $36.00-Sephora image from makeupandbeauty.com Beauty Concepts Contour Brush $4.99-Marshalls     As you can see they are not the exact same thing but the feel, bristles and purpose are very similar.  They are both synthetic and cruelty free the angled side are very alike they are both not dense whatsoever and soft to the touch.  The dome side on the other hand is flat compared to the sharper version on the Kat Von D. I use the dome side for setting my undereye concealer and the angled for my contour and then to blend it out as well.  The dome side can also be used for blush if you prefer.

I still do use a witch hazel toner to help with my skin as well and have a vegetarian diet.  But at times when I don't eat right my skin tends to get oilier and this prevents it from being...

The hardest combination to achieve since I have to really be picky when it comes to products and I also use cruelty free cosmetics only. Here is the break down. Be ready for details on details! Base: **Mario Badescu Rosewater spray beforehand and let dry and rose salve on lips, yes I like that rose smell** Sumary: glowy yet contoured face not highlighted under the yes but shimmer highlight on cheekbones and nose, neutral rosy cheeks 1. Becca Ultimate Coverage Complexion Creme in Nude applied with dense foundation brush 2.
