Estonian weather is the best excuse to stay inside.

Kui Eestis on kole ilm ja õues pole midagi teha, siis vähemalt lubab Siku enda peal erinevaid asju katsetada. Mõnikord meiki, mõnikord soenguid. Seekord piirdusin soenguga.

If the weather is bad in Estonia and you can't do anything outside, at least I have Siku who allows me to try different stuff on her. Sometimes makeup, sometimes hairstyles. This time I only tortured her hair.

MORPHE PINTSLID!

Hei, ma olen nüüd lõpuks tagasi! Peaaegu kuu aega tagasi tegin viimase postituse, vabandust. 
Ma käisin vahepeal laagris, olin haige ja käisin tervel hunnikul sünnipäevadel.
See on nüüd viimane postitus sellel nädalal, sest lähen veel ühte laagrisse, aga peale seda panen kokku väikese postituse nende laagrite kohta.
Nüüd postituse poindi juurde.

Tellisin juuni lõpus omale Morphe pintslite komplekti. Komplektis on 18 pintslit ning need tulid kokkurullitava hoidiku sees. Tellisin need Beauty Bay-st, mis saadab oma pakke välja Inglismaalt.
Nende kodulehel oli kirjas, et pakk peaksid jõudma kohale 5-7 tööpäevaga, kuid ma ei märganud seda kohta, mis ütles, et nemad ei vastuta aja eest, mis kulub erinevatel riigipiiridel jms kohtadel. Kokkuvõttes läks aega kaks ja pool nädalat, aga seda suurem rõõm oli, kui ma need kätte sain.

Algul oli väga häiriv kunstnaha lõhn, mis tuli sellest pintslihoidikust, kuid umbes nädalaga kadus see lõhn ära.

Praeguseks olen saanud neid nüüd veidi aega katsetada nii enda, kui ka teiste peal ja võin juba öelda, et on välja kujunenud lemmikud ja mitte nii lemmikud pintslid.
Kõige lemmikumad kogu sellest pundist on kontuurimise ja põsepuna pintslid (Contouring BrushAngle Blush Brush). Kasutan neid küll vastupidiselt, sest minu arust on kontuurida parem nurga all oleva pintsliga.
Järgmine lemmik on puudripintsel (Powder Brush), sest see on üpriski suur ja väga pehme, samuti ei jäta see näkku pintslikarvade jälgi, mis mõne pintsliga juhtub.
Laovärvi pintslitest osutuks mu lemmikuks kõige pisem detaili pintsel (Detail Brush), sest see on nii pisikene, et mahub nii silmanurka, kui ka lau välisnurka ning sellega on super teha rohkem täpsust nõudvavaid look-e.
Kõige halvem pintsel minu jaoks on jumestuskreemipintsel (Foundation Brush), sest algul katsudes tundub see väga hea pehme, kuid kasutades jätab jumestuskreemile jooned (pintslikarvade jäljed) sisse ja kogu nägu on kergelt triibuline.

Kokkuvõttes olen pintslitega rohkem rahul, kui ma ootasin ning need on hea algus mu pintslite kollektsioonile.

Hey, I'm finally back! It's been almost a month since my last post, sorry.
I went to a camp, alot of birthdays and I was sick for a week.
This is going to be the last post in this week because I'm going to another camp tomorrow, but after that I will put together a post about those camps.
Now to the main point of the post.

In the end of June I ordered a set of Morphe brushes. The set has 18 brushes and they came inside a roll-up brush wrap. I ordered them from Beauty Bay, who sends out their packages from England.
At their site it says that the package should arrive in 5-7 workdays, but I didn't notice the part that said they are not responsible for the time that passes on country borders and places like that.
It took 2 and a half weeks in total, but more happy I was when I finally got them.

At first there was really annoying smell of faux leather, but in about a week, the smell was gone and everything was okay.

By now I have had time to test the brushes out on myself and others and I have already found my favorite and least favorite brushes.
My most favorite brushes of the bunch are the Contouring Brush and the Angled Blush Brush. Although I use the Blush Brush for contouring and the Contouring Brush for blush, but I think it's better to contour with an angled brush.
My next favorite is the Powder Brush because it's so big and so soft and it doesn't leave brush streaks on your base what can happen with some brushes.
Out of the eyeshadow brushes my favorite has to be the smallest Detail Brush because it's so small that it can fit in my outer crease and in the inner corner of my eye. Also it's great for doing looks that need more precision.
And now the worst brush of the bunch. It has to be the Foundation Brush because at first it seemed like a great brush but when using it, it leaves alot of streaks and makes your foundation patchy.

Overall, the quality of the brushes is much better than I was hoping for and they are a great start for my brush collection.
