Best Discount Makeup Brushes Located

Best Discount Makeup Brushes Located

I just received my first order from KabukiBrushes.com and have to say that these are the best makeup brushes that I have ever found, and most of the makeup brushes I purchased were at leat 1/4 of the price of other discount makeup brush web sites.

Let me give you a run down of the discount makeup brushes I purchased....

When we first started manufacturing mineral makeup we needed our own line of mineral makeup brushes and brush sets, and didn't want to purchase from China or anywhere other than US companies.

KabukiBrushes.com is a great resource for all discount makeup brushes.

Mineral Makeup is it worth the hassle

For those familiar with mineral makeup brands, you realize that it's more loose powder than pressed, and that why you shy away from loose mineral makeup isn't because you don't like it, in fact you love mineral makeup and how it makes your skin feel, but.... you dislike the mess a toppled mineral powder sifter jar can cause.

So why use loose mineral makeup powder with it's hassles when you can use pressed mineral makeup? Are pressed mineral makeup brands as healthy and beneficial for your skin as the loose mineral makeup? You bet they are!

Pressed mineral makeup brands such as Jane Iredale, Pur Minerals, Physicians Formula, Raesin Images Colour ID Minerals, Cover Girl, and others tout the same mineral makeup benefits as the loose powders. In fact there are more mineral makeup benefits to pressed mineral foundations as there are to loose minerals.

If you're new to the world of mineral makeup, give one of the pressed mineral foundations a try. Raesin Images has just released it's new pressed mineral foundation Trilogy products. They are a 3 in 1 product containing 3 different shades of mineral foundation, and can be used as concealer, foundation, and contour, the colors allow every women to mix and match for the perfect shade and all women realize their skin changes color by the day due to hormones, stress, etc.

Physicians Formula carries pressed mineral foundation with many shades in one compact, allowing the user to blend for a great combination to match their skin's changing needs.

As time goes on, consumers will see a trend of mineral makeup brands changing to pressed, creams, and liquids in their mineral foundation formulas. This change is needed in the mineral makeup industry for convenience, travel, and shelf life.
