Lack of sleep, stupid hot, dirty hair, and stuck in a truck going to BFWA. Yes, I will even admit, this fire scares me. Never worked one this big. No not the feeding and/or preparing the food part. How fast this one is moving and how huge it is. So when all else fails, laugh, better then crying and fretting. Which causes swollen eyes and wrinkles. 
Keep safe!

My brushes haven't shed at all. I agree, exchange it if it's shedding.

Hmm. See I start thinking the other day that Dr. Bronner's is sometimes too harsh. Last time I washed I actually used the Beauty Blender bar that came with the pro pack of Beauty Blenders I picked up at IMATS and that works pretty well. I'm going to look into some Johnson's & Johnson's baby shampoo though lol.
I've tried a few things and keep going back to J & J Baby Shampoo

I also add a pinch of baby oil to help
break down the dyes in the makeup products and condition the brush hairs.

I have to say, I don't have any of his shoes, or nail polish or whatever else he makes. But, I saw a review of the lipsticks and the packaging alone looks like a mini work of art. I wonder what the formula is like, it'd be nice to see if it can top a TF or Guerlain Rouge G.

I love the blendercleanser solid! I have a 100pt mini I got a while back that I've been using lately, and it's fantastic. I pretty much stopped using my Dr. Bronner's that I'd been using the last while after I tried the solid. Before using either or, I used baby shampoo for brush cleaning. I also have the MAC brush cleanser that I use for spot cleaning on rare occasions. (It doesn't go near my Hakuhodos, though.)
Thanks to all of you with input on brush cleaning. I did actually return the cheek brush I bought back in the day for the shedding. I just finally ordered a new one to take a chance again, so that's why I wanted to see how you ladies keep them from shedding. Expect my new one tomorrow so we shall see how it goes!:sneaky:
I hope the new one works better for you!

I love the packaging on that lipstick. I kinda want to buy it, but it's hard to imagine anything being better than TF's formula (I'm already in love! So moisturizing! One swipe color payoff!).

hellzyeah! as an addict, figure you gotta try one, unless we hear they really suck. I'm getting one of the satins. no swatches yet, so totally taking a chance. getting one of the nudes because I figure, at that price, I better wear it a lot!

omg if it gets any better than a guerlain G it would have to be transended and made by Jesus himself to be sent down to us mere mortals by way of a my little pony unicorn with a free gift of gold held by a leprechaun!!

PopSugar has pics. I forget if she's the one that has them where you can see them broken down to get a better look. I found it on IG with a girl who broke them down into like 8 different pics to see them more closely. It helps if ordering blindly online, as I intend. I heard they're not in store on Sep. 1 unless you have a big store NM like in NY, etc. Do you think sephora will have them on sep 1 to see in person?

Nude Dip to me is not all that and then some. Cocoa Mirage, provided you don't have in your stash a good neutral palette. It is used for the ad with A/W 2015. Do you have that??? Another uniform in the making??? Do you have the new highlighter? Might want to consider that instead. 
The order for my highlighter got cancelled twice because it kept going in and out of stalk :( it's sold out everywhere I looked :cry: I have the AW15 color, it's beautiful! Cocoa Mirage is going to be my pick! I love neutrals!
If you have a counter near you I would check them out in person and see which colors you like and look the best on you. His brushes are awesome, too.
My problem is that I'm a Libra. Give me too many options and I'll be there all day trying to decide LOL! Everytime I go to Neiman's, I swatch his quads, always walk away empty handed because I can't choose :eek:hboy:
i have too many quads i want from TF. honestly do not need not even one but...
I want them all lol
[COLOR=0000FF]  I would go w/ Cocoa Mirage first.  I love Nude Dip but CM is more versatile.[/COLOR]
Yea, I'm going with CM, it's the one I've wanted most aside from Cognac Sable :)
