By Sheila Arkee This is one of my more embarrassing confessions. The current state of my brush roll.
Awful! I travel frequently and they need to be in a brush roll. At this point I just have to bite the bullet and invest in multiple brush rolls to make my life easier. [...] By Sheila Arkee

Although I do make an effort to change things up for the sake of 365 Days of Makeup, I find myself drifting towards my old favorites when pedi/mani time rolls arounds. [...] By Sheila Arkee A couple of weeks ago I got to a project that was years in the making. I’d bought this empty palette about 7 years ago, intending to use it for foundations or lipsticks, but afraid to mess up my makeup.
After doing a periodic cleaning of my makeup [...] By Sheila Arkee We’ve all been there at one point or another … and maybe a couple more times after that.
