I'm very excited to announce this week's Beauty Blogger of the Week - the wonderful Kristina Stone! Make sure to follow her blog Be Your Own Beauty .  How did you get started blogging? I started blogging a few months ago because I really love beauty and I wanted to talk about finding your own beauty within a society that tells you what you should like or not like. I wanted to post about things I have learned over the years because I know how it feels to be completely lost when it comes to makeup or beauty products. I wasn't expecting any followers but look at me now! I am so excited when I hit a few more followers and I will show my husband each time. I just love reviewing products as well and writing about my life. It has become a passion of mine! Beauty trend you love? I love the red lips and neutral face. I love having that one pop of statement within your look. I really enjoy the smoky eye or the pink cheeks. My number one favorite beauty trend would be the ne...

Studio 35 Beauty Regular Polish Remover : This is just the coolest thing. You stick your finger into the sponge inside and twist. The nail polish comes off like magic!   Wet N' Wild - Wild Shine Nail Colors: I'm really loving Bijou Blue and Caribbean Frost right now.  Biosilk Silk Therapy : I reviewed it, I  gave it away, and I'm absolutely-positively in love with it :D It makes my hair feel and look awesome!

So, Sigma sent me a F80 Flat Top Kabuki to review and they gave me another one to giveaway (check out the giveaway here .) First of all, I must say that kabuki is a very fun word to say out loud over and over again. Haha, sorry if that was a little random :D. I've seen reviews for this on almost every beauty blog I've been to. I thought that if a company was so willing to give away their product, they must be confident that it's high quality. I cannot say that I disagree. This brush is really great! It did such a great job at applying powder and foundation. I was amazed at how flawless my skin looked with just one or two strokes of this brush. It didn't leave any streaks and blended really well. This brush is a little pricey at around $16, but it's made well and I could definitely see it lasting many years. The brush is very dense and it feels very soft against skin. I'm really loving this product and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking fo...

I'm very excited about being given the opportunity to give this brush away to one of my readers :D! "This exclusive flat top synthetic kabuki was designed to deliver a flawless makeup application. The Sigma Makeup F80 is a buffer brush that can be used to blend powder or  liquid products. The short and dense bristles make it easy to buff your liquid foundation. The long handle adds comfort to your makeup application. The synthetic fibers are ideal to be used with liquid products and can be easily cleaned. Made of Synthetic Sigmax HD filament." I've read a lot of great reviews on it at the Sigma website and it has an average rating of 5 stars! Sigma will also be sending me one and I will write a review on it.
