Eco Makeup Brushes from Royal & Langnickel

There are a lot of makeup brush brands out there and I think the only way to pick one over another is just personal preference; maybe their politics (synthetic vs real hair) or even going by the brand name. Overall one that stands out right now is the ROYAL & LANGNICKEL line. Brushes are all they do, so their message is not watered down by focusing on different categories of products, which I like. I discovered them last year at the IMATS convention when I bought this brush. I loved the thickness of the brush head and I felt it really helped me get good coverage. This year, I saw that they were debuting their S.I.L.K. Pro GreenLine 12-Piece Set and if your collection is needing a great overall set of brushes, this one might be it and it also really helped me get more of a feel for the quality of their brushes.

Royal-&-Langnickel-Silk-PRO-GreenLine-12-Piece-Brush-Set-3 Inside the sustainable cork zippered case are 8 eye shadow and liner brushes, a metal lash separator (plastic ones are awful, so major points for making your separator out of metal), a foundation or concealer brush, blush brush and a powder brush. The brush hairs are a proprietary blend of synthetic filaments and the handles are made of 100% bamboo handles and chrome plated nickel ferrules. Eco-beauty is not just inside the products anymore. $95.99 @ royalbrush.com

Cybelesays Special Report - IMATS Comes To Town!

The big International Makeup Artist and Trade Show (IMATS) was this past weekend and this show just gets bigger and better every year. I mean, I went twice about 6 or 7 years ago and it was just boring and barren but for the last 3 years, it has more hip brands than ever and it always sells out. 

So who was there and what did I see and buy? Click after the jump and be prepared for a lot of pictures!

Cybelesays Special Report: IMATS

The Los Angeles International Makeup Artist and Trade Show (IMATS) was this past weekend in Pasadena, CA and while it’s not as big as the International Salon & Spa Expo (ISSE) I go to every year, there were still some must-sees.
