The brush is just revolutionary, let me tell ya! And thank you - I honestly can't believe I have 26 posts up to date already. It's amazing!!! I've never blogged so much in my life, and I absolutely love it! Not sure I'll be able to keep this up much longer after the challenge is over, but I sure want to try my hardest too. And a sweet birthday wish is never too late - I still haven't even opened any of my presents yet because I'm waiting 'til we can celebrate with family, so you're not even really late after all! =DMelissa Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05507649499725776209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620191915551845176.post-79830598013420663682013-01-26T11:31:54.159-08:002013-01-26T11:31:54.159-08:00I agree, the eyes are amazing!
