Brush Cleaning Made Easy | The Brush Bar

'I love cleaning my make up brushes!' said no one ever... I don't know about you, but my least favourite beauty task is cleaning make up brushes.

I recently received a couple of products to make cleaning my brushes easy.

A Little Helping Hand

I get dry hands at the best of times, but winter makes them even worse. I have to make sure I have a stash of hand cream with me wherever I go - bedroom, desk, hand bag, car, everywhere! I wanted to share a few of my favourites with you today, in case you are on the hunt for a good hand cream to keep your hands hydrated and happy all through winter.
