#Repost @caticagomita with @repostapp. ・・・ My friend, brush expert extraordinaire, and all around wonderful human @sweetmakeuptemptations has tagged me to post my own πŸ†2015 Brush AwardsπŸ†so here it goes! 🍬Brush Set of the year – I rarely buy full brush sets, so this one was easy: #Chikuhodo x #Beautylish Sakura collection. After plenty of use I continue to be extremely pleased with all 5 brushes, even the weirdly shaped crease brush which, in fairness, does get used less than the other 4. Comparing to similarly priced brushes in my collection, these stand out; the pretty Sakura print is just the cherry on top. 🍬Brush Discovery of the year – #SurrattBeauty, a bunch of sexy mofos. The cheek brush is possibly my favourite cheek brush to date. 🍬Best Performance – I cheated and put in 2 pics for this one. First, #Hakuhodo J series. The selection is massive and possibly overwhelming at first, but you’ll find a brush for every possible function and they really are THAT GOOD. The ones pictured here (SJ103 which is just J103 with a fancy handle, J110, J5521, J142) have become extensions of my hand, at this point. Chikuhodo GSN 04, 08, Special G-9 (last one was a gift from some very kind friends 😱 I cannot thank you enough). Workhorses. Utterly underrated. If I were more reasonable, I could live with just these 3 plus a couple of goat eye brushes from Haku’s J series. 🍬Out-of-Budget Award – #Koyudo White Canadian Squirrel brushes. This one pic I stole from @novynovynovy, clearly 😜 🍬 Craftsmanship Award – #Koyomo black Hana, #Qusavi Sometsuke Sansui, #Koyudo Lacquered kabuki. 🍬 Must-have Award – Koyomo pink series. A fraction of the cost of the more traditional Koyomo series with outstanding hair quality. This is probably THE softest goat you can get without having to also pay for a fancy collector’s handle. Just buy them. 🍬Facegasm Award – no hesitation here: Chikuhodo P-8 aka. The Beast, #Kihitsu CS large powder brush (strangely, this is so much softer than my half-matching cheek brush), and Koyudo Saibikoho cheek brush.

#Repost @karenlovesmakeup with @repostapp. ・・・ This is the last thing from my box of wonders from Japan. The Suqqu Xmas set B is my very first Suqqu ever. I have to say that I absolutely LOVE it! My 50 year old eyelids really liked this shadow. It didn’t crease, look wrinkly, and was super gentle on my hyper sensitive skin. I wore this to a Christmas party and got multiple compliments. Pixel likes it too! (he’s in the upper right checking it out) Thank you @fudejapan ! #suqqu #luxurybeauty #makeuphaul #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #cat #catoftheday #catsofinstagram #tabby #tabbycat #tabbycatsofinstagram

And thanks for the lovely treats that came along too. @fudejapan #makeupbrushes #makeupaddict #beautyaddict #bblogger #beautyblogger #sgbeautyblogger #sgmakeup #sgbeauty #igsg #clozette #igmakeup #nofilter #luxurymakeup #beautycommunity #luxurybrushes #flatlay #prettythings #japanesebrushes #beautyjunkie #igbeauty #instabeauty #instamakeup
