Review | Sigma Mr. Bunny Kit & Spa Cleaning Glove

One of the things on the top of my wishlist for a long time was a complete high-quality brush set. Over the past year or two I've really been into watching YouTube beauty videos and trying new makeup/truly wearing makeup for the first time. Good brushes are a huge part of that and I'm not saying that the only good brushes are expensive. I love my EcoTools, ELF, and Real Technique brushes. But being the OCD type person that I am I wanted a complete MATCHING set and I ended up deciding on the Sigma Mr. Bunny Kit.

I received the kit about two weeks ago and so far I LOVE the brushes! They are the softest brushes I have ever felt, the handle & barrel are extremely sturdy, and I have no doubt that these brushes will last me years.

By getting the kit I know that I have all of the "main" brushes and that I can add "extra" brushes as I wish. The best part? They'll all match! I still use a few of the ELF eye shadow brushes and my all time favorite ELF Kabuki face brush for bronzer!

On top of buying the Mr. Bunny Kit I also purchased the brand new Sigma Spa Brush Cleaning Glove. After watching a few YouTube demo videos I thought that it was worth giving a try and I also knew that since I spent so much money on the brushes I need to take really good care of them! The glove is pretty pricey at $39 (before the 10% discount) and I only think it's necessary if you have a decent number of brushes/really want to take care of them. I've used it once so far and even though it takes a minute to get used I really like it. I feel like it really deep cleans the brushes and I think that it'll help give the brushes a longer life.

One day in the future I'll take the pictures and write a post on how I clean my brushes.

Review | Crumpler Haven

I've been in the market for a camera bag since I got my dSLR in December 2011. I just never could decide on one/the ones I like were really expensive and I couldn't justify the price. Then one of my favorite YouTubers posted a blog about her camera accessories and I loved the concept of her camera "case" the Crumpler Haven. It's a case that can fit into ANY bag, provides enough protection, and comes with enough pockets to hold all of your necessities when you're out and about. I received mine a week ago and LOVE it! It'll be perfect for the cruise, because it fits my dSLR as well as my point and shoot and I can throw it in my carryon as well as my excursion bag. The color combination I chose isn't too girly so T won't mind putting it in his bag either :)

And here are some pictures! Enjoy.

Slots for memory cards, charger, cord, ect.

This weekend I did something that I don't do nearly enough: cleaned my makeup brushes. And my gosh were they disgusting! I need to make it a point to do this more often, especially since I'm ordering the Sigma Mr. Bunny kit soon and I'm going to make sure to take good care of them.

Currently I have an assortment of brush brands, but I clean them all the same. I use warm water, Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo, a towel, and Brush Guards! The Brush Guards are great for keeping the shape of the brushes and for traveling too!

Yesterday I ordered the Brush Guard Cleaning Kit and can't wait to get it! I'll definitely post a review once it arrives.  I bought the two variety packs I have at Meijer and I've heard that they're sold at Walmart as well.
