One of the many looks I enjoy creating; using my scarves as a creations to emphasize the look.  All you simply need is an ivory, cream, and/or taupe scarf and wrap it around your head in any style/way you want.  And you’ll simply achieve this look in no time. 
Okay ladies and gents, yay or nay!  I’m looking for a fresh, clean caramel highlight look and this is what I came up with.  Comment below and give me feedback.  Do you think I’ll look good with the light shade?  COMMENT.

My honest opinion/review on Sigma’s Premium Travel Kit.
Tapered face -F25: I personally use this brush to pick up my bronzer/highlighter and let me tell you, if you really want the precise finish where it actually picks up the product, this F25 is the brush to go.  It’s a soft textured brush, neither harsh nor scratchy to the skin, although the bristles are very soft, I haven’t experienced any shedding; so far so good.
Duo Fibre Powder/Blush - F15: I used this brush as a blush applicator and I LOVE IT.  The bristles are just amazing!  You’re paying a good amount of money for the cost of one or the kit.  You don’t experience shedding, which I hope no to in the near future.  Picks up the color great and application is also a PLUS!  Must HAVE in collection.
Large Fluff - E50: This brush is pretty much multi-use.  This large fluff is a little big for my lid area but I use this as an all over shadow applicator.  Picks up the color just fine and you don’t experience any scratching to the eye.  You could also use this brush as a concealed brush since the bristles are large enough and flat enough.
Large Concealer - F65: Works as good as everyone talks about it on YouTube.  Although I’m not a big fan of concealer brushes, I love this one. It’s a must have.  It’s easy to spread the product and non-scratchy.
 Short Shader - E20:  I love this brush applicator, thanks to Sigma, I can really create a crease for a small lid like mine.  So easy to apply product on and not like any other brushes, it picks up the product and the finish is amazing.  It’s so worth the money and time in investing these brushes. 
Small Eye Liner - E10: Amazing eye liner pencil, this brush is so dense that your creations are so precise.  No worries on smudging or undefined lines. This brush does it all.
Small Tapered Blending - E45:  Everyone’s favorite blending brush, I love it although it’s quite big for my eye area and crease.  It’s perfect for those whom have a bigger eyelid or crease area.  Even so it’s a great brush and does wondrous in blending.  It’s a MUST HAVE, bristles are dense and very soft. 
btw, I love the clutch, it's soo freaking cute and trendy.

  2. Yes Linda, I love Sigma brushes too. You're soo silly, I wouldn't do that though. Lol.

    But yes, I will definitely try it though, it's a new look. Maybe when I move out, I'll take the initiative to do it.

  3. Aww Pam,

    Have a Happy Valentine's day to you too. So sad that this will be my 4th year in a row apart from my hubby on Valentine's day. He's deployed right now. Very sad but I support him in everything he do. Have fun and stay warm.
