  1. Nice job. :-) I need to get my post up, but it's been an exhausting weekend, exhausting week, and another one to come I have a feeling, aack. I thought summer was supposed to be relaxing, so far I have more stuff going on than I thought humanly possible. Two more weeks left on mine too. Wow. How did the brush cleaner work out for you?

    1. Girlll I know, I was perpetually sleepy last week :( This week is going to be shorter for me since I'm going on vacation this upcoming weekend!! You did really well during your no-buy though! So proud of you and so sad that it's almost over...I won't know anybody doing it with me afterwards.

      I used the ELF Brush Shampoo on my light/mildly used brushes and used a combination of dishwashing liquid + olive oil on my most used brushes (Like foundation, kabukis, blush/contour and the 2-3 eyeshadow brushes I use most often)

    2. I have been sick all week now too! Ugh. :-( At least I didn't buy anything haha. I have a question...you do photoshop and stuff right? Do you do banners, for like blogs? I need to design a new one, but have no idea how to go about it? Someone did mine for me but I need to change it.

    1. Thanks! I was originally inspired the the project no buy that Nancy ran on darksideofbeauty.com :) She did hers for like 15 weeks I think!

      Yeahhh last week was good, I didn't spend much money :) Sometimes I go crazy when I see sales though and totally splurge
