Now, I don’t know from personal experience but they say the being a mother is one of the most rewarding yet demanding jobs out there! I couldn’t agree more! With five kids, my Mom was a chef, chauffeur, nurse, teacher, seamstresses, housekeeper and so much more! Honestly, I don’t know how she did it all without losing her mind! Or one of us, five kids is a lot! Not to mention we all weren’t exactly little angels.

To show your Mama some gratitude for putting up with your shenanigans, here are a few of my favorite finds that I’m sure she or any Mama would love!

To be honest, I wasn’t really excited by the product. I had tried something similar from another brand many years ago and it was a disaster. Plus I suffer from really dry lips, like I carry 5 chapsticks with me and can’t go a day without it dry lips, so me and long wearing lip products just don’t go. But I had heard good things about these so I thought I’d give it a shot.

Everyday Minerals Contour Brush

Typically I’m a natural contour kinda gal, so brushes like the NARS Ita Brush just never really appealed to me, I just didn’t like that really strong contour look.

Really, I  wanted the Ita Brush but I just could not bring myself to spend $55 on one single brush!
