July 3rd, 2012 at 11:07 PMIn my opinion the best way to learn about new products is most definitely through blogs, vlogs, and especially YOUTUBE – my favorite past time! I absolutely love it!!
July 4th, 2012 at 3:25 AMIt is a way for me to get more input, not just from the make up professionals but also anyone who has a passion for beauty and health care. I like how i can always find a review from an individual with whom has a similar interest or physical characteristic (such as skin type) – and there are some amazing dedicated people out there who want to share their discoveries with you. For the past couple of years these types of mediums have been a great way in helping me to educate myself as well as to ensure how to take care of my skin in the best possible way. Best thing about it is that it doesn’t cost a thing to learn from them:)
