If you know me on any type of level, or have followed my transformation over the last year, you know a lot has changed. Not only did I become an avid makeup junkie, but I've also become a boss babe in a short amount of time. I figured I would show you the products I've purchased off Amazon over the past year in chronological order so you can see how both my love for makeup and business has evolved:
The #1 question I get asked is also my FIRST purchase:
brushes
When I first started religiously applying a full face of makeup, I knew I needed a brush set. Being the cheap, Amazon-loving mom that I was/am - naturally I turned to this set. With nearly 5 stars and a $12 price tag, that two day arrival couldn't come soon enough. Want to know the best part? Nearly a year later, I STILL love this set and recommend it! It is a perfect starter set for a full-face routine and I still use some of them religiously. The quality is about what you'd think for $12, but overall -- totally worth it!
Whether you're a distributor or not, these are a MUST have! I use them for customer demos, but always give my customers a few for pre-mixing their different shades of LipSense.
Let's Talk Mirrors:
One of the first mirrors I ever purchased:
was a big (little) mistake.
I absolutely thought this was bigger, but still love and use it in my demo/travel bag or purse. It lights well, sits up, and is perfect if you're looking for something SMALL!
I quickly purchased this one and happily used it for 6 months before I made the ultimate upgrade:
Couldn't love this mirror more! It's significantly larger than it's cheaper, initial version and you can even play your phone through it (which I never do). Even better, it's rechargeable so you don't need batteries-- and the charge lasts weeks.
It's also available in several other colors:
If I could attribute one game changer to my business it would be this bad boy:
With a $160 price tag I needed a glass of wine to order this one, but it was SO worth it. It completely changed the quality of my videos and photos, especially trying to take half way decent photos in the heart of a Northeast Ohio winter. I would buy it 100 times over!
I have had a few phone-holding tripods and this is my favorite. It also doubles as a selfie stick!
The following products are currently part of my every day routine! Check out my LIVE videos on facebook for ALL the details & to see them in action:
