Men have their tool boxes and so do women. Here’s a list of what should reside in ours!

Makeup brushes: Eyeshadow (large and small), brow brush/eye lash comb, cheek brush, lip brush, powder brush, eyeliner brush, eye crease brush.

Sponge: For cake foundation: Soft, hard or natural sponge. Water is not required with soft or hard sponges. Use water with a natural sponge.

Cotton swabs: Use to remove small amounts of wayward mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow and of course, clean the ears!

Cotton balls or cotton cosmetic swabs: Remove eye makeup (with the aid of eye makeup remover)

Eyelash curler: Curl eyelashes prior to adding mascara.

Tweezers: For shaping the brow and removing annoying hairs that pop up here and there.

Eyeliner pencil sharpener: Similar to a lead pencil sharpener, but designed for eyeliners.

Finger nail and toe nail clippers: Finger nail clippers have a rounded edge. Toenail clippers have a straight edge.

Finger nail file: Use it to shape, not reduce their size; reduce nail size with nail clippers.

Orange stick: Push down the cuticles with an orange stick.

Cuticle trimmer: This little razor sharp item trims away overgrown cuticles and dead skin. If you have never used one, be very careful not to cut in too deep. It works wonders after you master it. It may turn out to be one of your best friends.

Magnifying mirror: Not our best friend, but it sure is a godsend.

If something has been forgotten, please tell us what your favorite tool is in your tool box. If you know someone who is having a birthday or is getting married, a ladies tool box and all the essentials would make a wonderful gift she could use.
