Sigma Make-Up - Duo Fibre - F50
I have bought a new brush from Sigma Make-Up - The Duo Fibre F50 brush.
Its a perfect brush to use for your liquid foundation.
The reason that i had to buy myself a new brush, is that the brush i already use from Coastal Scents shed too much hair. Black little hairs that stick to my foundation, NOT pretty at all.
Thats why I have chosen to try out this brush from Sigma. I have heard alot of great things about this brush.
Duo Fibre - F50
Going to wash it today so i can start using it.
I really hope that this dont shed black hair that sticks to my foundation.
The brushes i use for my make up is all from Sigma Make-Up.
Love their brushes, so soft and easy to work with.
I have never experienced anything negative with their brushes, so im excited to try it out :)

How to make the perfect Naruto cosplay
Naruto Uzumaki is my favor cosplay character from a popular anime serious Naruto. In the anime, as a ninja, he comes from Konohagakure
People don’t admire him so well; in fact, all his neighbors ignore him because they thought he has a demon in his body. He does everything to be the village chief (Hokage) to get the other villages’ appreciation. To be able to have the cosplay of him is very easy. The costume won’t need any hard stitching or embellishing.
While Naruto Uzumaki still is warmly welcomed by most anime fans also cosplay fans. Furthermore Naruto Uzumaki cosplayers sit in the first place. Even some girls want to play the Naruto Uzumaki cosplay and their Naruto cosplay costumes varies a lot, which even won’t affect the looking and feeling.
Naruto cosplay has orange pants and a jacket that is orange and blue colored. For first trials, an orange jumpsuit may be worn. But if you don’t have a jumpsuit, then orange pants and a jacket that is either blue or orange can be zipped on. The pants must be just over the sandals. You can adjust the length of your pants by cutting the bottom part of it. Naruto has a white cloth wrapped on the right leg and thigh. White Ace bandages may be put at it for a Naruto cosplay costume.
Actually, except for the Naruto cosplay costumes, the fighting skills should taken into to create a complete performance of Naruto cosplay perfectly.
Naruto cosplay needs a unique sandal. You could cut the toe part of your old boots to make something like his then wear it without anything in your foot. This is the exact way Naruto wears them. Look at the list of Naruto characters.
Make-up plays an important role in cosplay also Naruto cosplay . There are some tips you should pay attention to: with the head, the face must be highlighted by black eyeliner. The eyeliner will be used by the three lines that Naruto face have in the cheeks. The line can be in different angles because it changes in the cartoon with narrator’s many expressions.
With the headband that Naruto cosplay has, you can surely buy one in cosplay costumes stores that are known to be selling Naruto cosplay stuffs. It is suggested too but the real version that is licensed goes for metal work which can actually cost far more.
You can see lots of Naruto cosplay, Naruto Uzumaki’s attractive hair straight up to the sky. So to complete the Uzumaki Naruto cosplay, firstly you should deal with the cosplay hair.
You may buy a yellow spiked Naruto cosplay wig in salons or nearby costume stores that would definitely have one like Naruto’s or make your hair exactly like his. You can dye your hair yellow which must be very bright. The gels you must be using must be the non permanent type to maintain the color and texture of the hair. You can surely bring out the yellow color if you have a natural dark hair and can be less harming when being bleached. You must make large spikes using the gel and must count exactly as 20.

Man Fashion: Summer Office Styles
Spring is definitely over and summer is where we are now. You want to stay cool at work, and you’re not just thinking temperature. If you’re not working at Microsoft, Google, or any of the big tech companies, chances are you don’t get the luxuries of wearing whatever you want. So how can you stay cool in the hot sun without being in the hot seat? Below are some pointers to get you started, and examples on how to use these guidelines to work for you.
Think about fabric: Pima cotton is breathable, versatile for all season, and has outstanding quality for clothing. Cotton blends, particularly with stretch wool or rayon/viscose, are great during the summer and keep your clothes fitted to your body. Linen is definitely a must-have in summer attire.
Think of colors: Try mixing bolder shades of spring pastel hues to “spring” into summer. Bold and vibrant colors can look cool and still be comfortable, such as various shades of purple, orange, and blues. Earth and neutral tones – like olives, tans, and browns – are definitely a standard and can look professional with minimal effort. Whites and greys are staples and versatile even when paired with bolder colors to accentuate your personal look. Minimize wearing black as much as possible. If you do wear black, get that in breathable fabrics like linen or cotton chinos, or look for it in subtle patterns.
Think of your workplace: Format your attire based on the dynamic of your workplace. Don’t wear sandals or flip flops if your work does not call for it.
Putting It All Together
No matter what fabrics, color and workplace, the most important of summer office wear is able to give you comfort and express individual personal styles.
