FTB's eBay Find of the Week: Mineral Makeup


Bare Escentuals: bareMinerals makeup is one of the lightest, best makeups for foundation out there! I have actually used this product for many years and love it!


This is made of only pure, crushed minerals from the earth. BareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation looks like a powder, feels like a cream and buffs on like silk, giving skin a natural luminosity, and feels as if you are not wearing any makeup at all.


*Free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate skin and cause breakouts.
You don't have to pay retail prices, instead try eBay.
Below are the pricings of retail vs. eBay:

Beauty Tip of the Week: Best Mascara for the Buck!



Have you seen all those mascara commercials by Cover Girl, Maybelline, L'Oreal and Revlon? Since fake eyelashes have become popular the beauty industry is trying to cash in on the trend. They are trying to sell us on having the longest, thickest, lushest eyelashes ever mascaras.


Well, I have to admit...they sort of sucked me in. I haven't tried the fake lashes, but I have tried so many mascaras in the past year! From the Cover Girl mascara that Queen Latifa promotes to the $10 Revlon Mascara. I have tried quite a few.


In the end, even after trying all the latest inventions in mascara, the overall winner is Great Lash Mascara by Maybelline. This retails for only $3-5! Can't beat that price! Many professional makeup artists still swear by this mascara and look at the picture...even Allure magazine gave them an award!



What's your favorite mascara? Give this one a try!
