COASTAL SCENTS bionic foundation brush + I AM MOVING!

Hai, chica ^^. Hereby i want to announce that I AM MOVING. If you notice, i have changed my domain name, blog title and also change the header to " BEAUTY CHICA". I just thought that the name will represent this blog content  better since i write about beauty posts, well mostly. Also, chica means girl in spanish. Well, I hope with this new name, it will bring more luck towards this blog *wink!

For a starter, i want to review a foundation brush from coastal scents called bionic brush. Bionic! Yeah, it is so big and it does the job, just like its name. I bought this for quite some time ago when Coastal Scents had their web discount. I got this for 50.000 rupiahs. Real steal!

The brush is made of synthetic hair. Yellow colored bristle and it is very dense. The size is big! I just need like 20 seconds to blend foundation to my entire face due to the brush size.

The handle is long but there is no logo, no picture, nothing. I just hope that Coastal scents prints out their brand there, just to give a mark there, just to make it look a little more professional. I have washed this for so many times, but i never experienced any fall out. The hair still remain intact, so is the glue and everything.

I find this brush worth buying because it delivers the job, great foundation finish and also it has a good quality. Recommended brush!

REVIEW: E.L.F Studio Stippling Brush

Hi, beauties :). I want to share about E.L.F Stippling Brush. If you wonder what stippling brush is, it is actually a brush for applying face product, wet or dry. For complete information, here is the description from ELF website

This new antibacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more ansorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. Studio brush!

The layered bristles create a soft airbrushed look that's perfect for applying foundation or adding colour definition to cheekbones or highlighting with soft layers. Use this brush with any liquid or powder face product such as foundation, blush or bronzer to build your coverage from sheer to heavy.

Personally, i use this brush for applying my NYX cream blushes. It works well. My blushes are in rose petal and glow, it is very pigmented. So, when i apply it with my hands, it turns out to be too much. The best way to apply it is with this stipple brush. It blends the product to a smooth finish.


Sometimes, i use it for powder blush and highlighter. Works like charm also. This brush picked up the product evenly, so it would end up looking natural on my face.


But somehow, i feel like i can`t use this to apply liquid foundation or BB cream. It waste so much product, takes more time to apply, and also the bb cream looks streaky and uneven. I wonder if the problem is my lacking skill because many other bloggers said it works well to apply liquid foundation and BB cream too. Do you have this brush? If you have tips to apply foundation/ bb cream with this brush, please share it with me too ^^..

I find the handle is very sleek and ergonomic. It is just well fit to my hands. Not too big, not too small

The brush itself is not very dense. It is made of taklon ( idk what it is, maybe something synthetic >.<). Good thing about taklon is it doesn`t shed, washed easily, and have high flexibility. I washed this nearly every other day, but then the bristles never shed once. The bristle is easily stained tho. But overall, this is a very recommended brush. It is affordable, yet works like a charm


Price: around 60.000 rupiahs/ 9 SGD
