DQS Portable Makeup Bag

Just like many ladies, I have quite a lot of makeup. From brushes to sponges, eye liner to mascara, eye shadow to blush, I've got it all and then some! When traveling, I really hate shoving as much as I can into little travel bags. I can never find what I need and things tend to leak or break and it just becomes a complete mess!




I was able to review a beautiful makeup case from DQS. It has a shoulder strap that makes it easy to carry with you and zips up tight. The whole top inside cover has slots made for brushes and things of that nature. There's even a flap that keeps all of your items in place.



I can't fit ALL of my makeup in this bag, but it's great for when I'm traveling for a while. This case would work great for special events like weddings, maybe even for makeup artists!






Inside are little slots that hold dividers that you can easily adjust for the size pockets you need. It's very handy for when you have tiny items or larger items such as single eyeshadows or large pallets. Plus, it's very easy to clean if you get it all messy!




When I'm not using it for makeup, I actually use it to keep all of my jewelry I sell in. It works great for my bracelets, necklaces, rings, and earrings! I love how everything is organized and not just thrown into a tote. It's easy for me to grab when someone wants me to go over for them to pick out gifts!





I 100% recommend this bag! I have zero problems with it.
It would make for an excellent gift!

Beautilee Makeup Sponge Blenders and Brush Review

I'm just starting to use sponge blenders for my liquid foundations. I love my buffing brush, but it's not good for contouring. These sponge blenders by Beautilee are great for contouring with creams and liquids. They are super soft, feels great on the skin, and absorbs the foundations well. If you wet it first, then squeeze out the excess water, it will be easier to apply and also clean the sponges afterwards. It also comes with a retractable kabuki brush. It's nice to have a brush I can take where ever I want without messing up the bristles. The only thing is that you have to be careful not to push down the retractable part of the brush too far. It can get stuck and it's not easy to get it back up. This part could use a little change because what's a retractable brush if you can't retract it? It opens up beautifully, closing it is where it can get tricky.

Here is a helpful list of my pros and cons on this product.

Pros:
- Soft sponges
- Sponges are easy on the skin
- Sponges and brush are easy to clean
- Compact and easy for on the go
- Latex-free
- Antibacterial
- Cruelty-free

Cons:
- Bristles are a bit rough on the skin
- Retractable part of brush gets stuck
- Packaging could use some reinforcement

I think it's absolutely great that a portion of each purchase goes to support "Women for Women International". A program that allows you to 'Sponsor a Sister' in countries affected by conflict and war. The program helps women learn the skills necessary to support their families and provide better lives for them.
