Today it seems like everyone is going Green and making eco-friendly products. I am one of the people who enjoy eco-friendly products. While I don`t HAVE to have them, I still really like them. Recently EcoTools contacted in regards to trying out some of their make-up brushes! EcoTools sent me their Bamboo 6 piece Eye Brush Set along with their Bamboo Bronzer Brush! The Eye Brush Set includes a large eye brush, angles crease brush, highlighting brush, smudge brush and a Hemp & Cotton case with mirror. All the brushes are extremely soft! When using them, they`re unlike other brushes I have used in the past with the softness. Typically I have use cheap brands of brushes that shed as you use them and fall apart rather easily. Those same brushes also aren`t very soft, they have more of a rough texture where the brushes seem to prick your face as you use them. With EcoTool brushes the brushes stay together, no more funky brush shedding! Plus, my face isn`t being stabbed every time I choose to wear make-up! Also, I love the wooden handles! They`re smooth and easy to hold! The brand new ecoTOOLS Bronzer Brush ($9.99) is the perfect tool for attaining an even and natural golden glow!  Brush the incredibly full head of super soft bristles across skin where the sun naturally hits, resulting in a warm, sun-kissed glow.  The beautiful, solid bamboo handle is professionally designed for ease of use and proper application of bronzer onto the face and neck. To beat this beauty quandary and to introduce its brand-new brushes for February 2010, ecoTOOLS teamed up with celebrity makeup artist Meredith Baraf to bring you the products and pointers you need to create a professionally pretty face.   On February 1, ecoTOOLS officially launched four instructional videos on www.eco-tools.com so women everywhere can redefine and re-tool to become a total beauty know-it-all. The instructional videos offer tutorials for the following looks: *       A cunning cat-eye (https://bit.ly/6YbhaA) *       A flawless face (https://bit.ly/7tAOpQ) *       A sultry smoky eye (https://bit.ly/6RSnR5) *       A touched-up face for day to night (https://bit.ly/5wEmqw) Be sure to take a sneak peek of Meredith`s step-by-step instruction for each of these make-up tricks at the links above!Â

HOW TO USE YOUR ECOTOOL: STEP #1: Line with a pencil The key to this look, says Meredith, is continuous blending and smudging. Start with an eye liner pencil, and apply along the upper lash line - don`t worry about getting a perfect line, because you`ll be blending it out soon! STEP #2: Smudge Go back with the EcoTools Smudge Brush, and sumdge the pencil line up and outward -this will help smooth out any hard lines. STEP #3:  Intesify with shadow Take a shadow (the same color as your liner) and go back over the pencil to set and intensify the line with the same EcoTools Smudge Brush.  The eye should really be taking on that smoky look at this point! Step #4: Blend Using the EcoTools Blending Brush, blend the line upward in order to gradiate the color.  You want the shadow to vary in intensity so that the look is subtle and sexy, not harsh. Step #5: Highlight Run the EcoTools Highlighting Brush through a light, shimmery shadow and apply under the brow and also in the inner corner of the eye for a pop of brightness amongst all the dark smokiness.

So would I recommend these brushes? Absolutely! These are my absolute favorite make-up tools now and don`t plan on turning back to the cheap stuff any time soon! Get your EcoTools now!
