EDM Flat Top Brush..Me, Happy!

It has arrived!!! For two days, I can’t stop checking the gate, hoping to see the courier bring my goodies...and now here it is...my very own Everyday Minerals Flat Top Brush! Oh okay, I also bought the EDM eye shadow brush, but I just can’t contain my happiness for finally having the flat top brush!!!

You see, I am a certified mineral make up convert. Starting my make up kit from ground zero is not that easy. It took me a lot of patience with the trial and error part: which shade is better, which brush works better with what, and etc.

I bought quiet a number of brushes already, and I especially spent much on kabukis. So far, with all the purchases I have online... none of them really made me this excited. I thought of finally giving up my search for my favourite brush, and just be contented of what I have...until I came across video reviews of the EDM Flat Top Brush...and not to mention, reviews made by my favourite Youtube gurus: Xteeener and Kitcat627. Right after I saw their reviews, I checked the Everyday Minerals Website. It was love at first sight, I must say. The moment I saw it, I just want to have one the SOONEST. I realize that if I opt to buy from the EDM website, I will have to wait for weeks... so definitely I must find another option: Multiply shops!!! Many thanks to tianggeatbp.multiply.com, for selling their EDM brushes at very affordable prices, despite their popularity. Besides, I need them to be cheap... being a mom, and with the not-so-friendly to the pocket price of my son's milk, I can't splurge on cosmetics and the like!

I was able to purchase the flat top brush at 450php, and the eye shadow brush for 300 php, not that bad if you compare their prices to everydayminerals.com. And my favourite part, I don’t have to spend that much for shipping, nor do I have to wait that long to have my EDM brushes :-)

My take on this product?

The EDM Flat Top Brush is indeed the softest brush that ever touched my hands...you can quote me on this, when I say it's the best for it's price! Not only that, it's handle is just the right length for applying foundie and mineral veil. It gave me effortless applications because it is also so dense! I am so happy :-D The velvety feel of the brush tips glided on my face, without poking me, my face feels so pampered. Also, I didn't just use it on mineral make up... but also with other conventional makeup, and it worked fine too.

I didn't mention much about the EDM eye shadow much, because I wasn't as happy with it as I am with the Flat Top Brush. I find it too stiff to apply makeup on my lids. It was not as soft as I expected it to be. I am still happier with the eye shadow brushes I purchased earlier.

I took some pics a few seconds after opening the shipment, and posted them below, for you guys to check out:

Odesk, Mylot, Elance...what else?

It's been days since I last posted here. I have been busy since I just started a job in oDesk, and yet still hunting for more jobs in Elance. Being a single mother, It's not that easy to leave my son at home... at the same time earn money. The best option for me, is to earn from home.

So what does it take to be a member on these sites? I tell you, a lot of patience. I personally prefer oDesk, because from my experience, it is easier to register. Elance and Guru were equally fine...I guess... although I can't say so much about them, because at the moment, I earn from oDesk. The thing is, even if I work the whole day at oDesk, being a newbie, I only get a few bucks a day.

I wonder what other options do I have? Well...patience is a virtue, and I am yet to discover more sites where I wish I can have an earning.

Being a single mom, I need to have extra income. A lot of times, I feel like giving up with finding an online job, but everytime I see other Filipino providers starting from zero, and are now earning a lot, I gain more courage and patience to find more buyers.

I am willing to try and succeed on this. I will try. One of these days, I will be flaunting my online earnings here... That’s a promise! I’m crossing my fingers on that, and I am giving up :-)

Since I am new in blogging, I am still trying to figure out, how do I solicit my reader's thoughts. I wish I can ask you guys if you have other ways of earning online. hmmm... just elave your messages on the left side if you have any more suggestions, I will really appreciate it.

For now, I have to go, will be having an online interview in a little while...

Mahalo!
