It's Here; Conservatorie Brush Review! 1st Impressions

The Conservatorie
Cosmetic Manufacturer


last week, surfing the web for make-up brushes, I ran across a site called "The Conservatorie." This is a cosmetic manufacturer company that sells raw ingredients such as, Micas, Bases, Empty Packaging(5gm & up jars)  and brushes at wholesale. I visited the site quite curious about their brush line. Let me start by saying this, The brush line is broken down into Synthetic, Badger hair, Kabuki's, Brush sets, Brush pouches, and Individual brushes. I decided to get a few synthetics and badgers; all eye brushes. I also went with the 7-pc travel badger set, 2 empty jars and 2 pigments.

However, this review will only be about the brushes I received! The shipping was extremely fast, taking into consideration, they are based on the west and I am on the east coast. The brushes came in a small zip-lock type bag with each brush individually wrapped in a clear plastic protective package.However, I did remove the individual wrapping so I could wash them and test for shedding and dyes.
On to the review! First, I have to say that I really like the way these brushes feel; very sturdy! The Ferrule is double stitched and the handle is wood, with a black glossy finish. I also, can say that the hairs on the badgers are extremely soft, as well as the sythnetics.

SideNote: If you like Coastal Scents Brushes; These are better in my opinion!

Pony Chisel Mini Smudger $2.00
Perfect for smokey, very narrow


Synthetic Angle Brow & Liner $1.56
Out of the review, these are the brushes I like the least. They are both identical, even though one may be slightly wider than the other. However, these brushes are very coarse and  I would not advise that they should not be used to apply liner on the lid. In my opinion, I think they will be great for the filling in brows with shadows or liners.

Synthetic Crease $2.36
I LOVE IT! Is to sum it up in words! I chose this particular  brush for blending and crease work! This is the true test because it will tell if the brush application is good. Blending is very important when applying eyeshadows, therefore, a good crease, blending brush will help execute a flawless look! This is the only one with a nickel plated ferrule. A really nice brush and very soft.



Badger Blending Fluff $1.80
 This is also another brush  I will use to soften harsh lines. As for these badgers they are really easy to work with. I love this one as well:)

Badger Deluxe Crease $2.36
Again, another badger brush that is used for blending and crease work. I cant wait to use these on my clients, knowing that the brush hairs are soft and I will not have to worry about the hairs feeling scratchy! Another must have for my kit!


My overall opinion about The Conservatorie Brushes.......I am happy that I discovered them<3! They are very affordable, Professeional, and does the JOB! Reminder, that these are wholesale prices, so the more you buy; the more for your buck$$. As for washing them, no to minimal shedding(Literally). No dye bleeding as well and no harsh smell, which is always great!

Sinful Colors Nail Polish In Soul Mate#945

I have noticed that out of my Sinful Colors Haul, I purchased quite a few pink polishes. Now, usually, I am not a big fan of pink; however, pink nail polishes are my new fave! The Sinful Colors Walgreens sale has allowed me to experiment with colors I  typically wouldnt care for. This color  I am reviewing is called Soul Mate; a creamy pink with a slight peach undertone. I have noticed on lighter skin tones it pulls more peachy color. Like all Sinful Colors nail polish most are a hit rather than a miss. I enjoy this color; it has a very girly feel:)
Here are the swatched


Application Coats: 3
Top Coat: 1
Drying Time: Appx. 8-10 w/o dryer

Thank you to all my Bff's 4 stopping by (new & old)

Sinful Colors Nail POlish In Timbleberry

This is a part of the Sinful Colors nail polish haul, which I purchased from Walgreens about a week ago. I really enjoy SC because they have a huge color variation. Enough with the rambling, on to the swatches!



Now, the color is coming out a bit more Orange, However, it is actually a combo of Coral-Pink-ish color. The color in my opinion is very pretty! The application is creamy and is easy to apply.In some cases with SC polishes, sometimes the polish can be a little hard to work with but I found this to quite easy. The drying process did take some time but when dried; it dried with a shine, not flat like other SC polishes. I applied 3 coats and one top coat. Drying time is about 5-8 minutes, ONLY, Because I wanted the true color to be seen with 3 coats.

I have been really getting into these sinful color nail polishes, and I just waould like to contribute my swatches for people who may be interested in certain nail polish colors.....:) pay it foward!

Mickey Mouse Me Nail Polish (Ruby Kisses)

About a month ago, I went to my local Beauty supply store for some NYX jumbo Pencils. I always glance the Ruby Kisses section for their primer or lippies. Well, in the nail polish display, I noticed a new line of HD polishes. Very bright vibrant colors; hard to miss. To be quite honest, out of all the colors, one particular color stood out to me the most. It is a very pretty mauvey-lavender pinkish color. I would love to find a lipstick in this color. On to the review, Shall we!
Love this color as a neutral or I would say nude for the nails. The polish is very rich and pigmented. The brush is wide, so application is even, and creamy.  I only applied 2 coats  and color is true to the bottle. I aslo love the name. I didnt realize the name until waaayy after I purchased it. Then it made me like it a little more. These polishes are definitely different from the other Ruby Kissed polishes  in the square bottle. The consistency is much creamier and long lasting. Well here it is





This is my review of the Ruby Kisses HD Nail Polish In "Mickey Mouse Me." I truly love the color so  much I will be purchasing a few more. Oh, btw, these polishes are only $2 bucks....(*_-).  If you like Sinful Colors, or the other Ruby Kisses N/P then you would love these. If any one my Bella Beauties out there has already tried these polishes and let me know what colors are a must have from this line!

Sinful Colors Nail Polish In Cream Pink Review

Okay, this is going to be short brief & sweet. I went to Walgreens where they are having a .99cents Sinful Colors Nail Polish sale from 8-14 to 8-20. If anyone know like I know, they are a great dupe for higher end polishes. I love the fact that they have a huge color selection; they have really catchy names as well.  Well, I went to Walgreens and picked up five colors, however this review is only about Cream Pink.  The color is like a hot pink with a very light minimal gold sparkle( hardly recognizable).  It is truly a fun inspired color and that was one of the reason I had to add it to my collection. At one point in my life, I couldnt stand pink, however, I have grown to really appreciate the girly-ness of pink. I am so happy that I chose this color. I only had to apply 2 coats and 1 top coat. The color is true to the color in the bottle, thats a plus for me. My overall opinion, I LOVE IT! This is a girl just wanna have fun kinda color:))



Let me know what sinful colors nail polishes you like!

Thank you BFF's for stopping by:)
