The Biggest, Most Comprehensive EcoTools Display I've Ever Seen

Can you believe this display?? It is by far the most comprehensive EcoTools display I have ever seen. Anywhere. Most stores in my area only have a small portion of what's in this display! 

Any guesses as to where I found this? Reveal, after the jump... 

NEW EcoTools Dry Body Brush

I've read many articles about dry brushing over the years, but it's something I have yet to try myself. Well that might just change soon, since I found this in my in-box today:

NEW EcoTools Dry Body Brush

(retail: $4.99)

The new EcoTools Dry Body Brush is available now on the EcoTools site (along with all their other new products; you can check out my review of the new Correcting Concealer Brush HERE, in case you missed it). You get free everyday shipping on orders $35+ on the EcoTools site, no code required. I'm not sure if this brush will start popping up at retailers like Ulta, Target, Walmart, etc. soon, but I would imagine it will. If you've already spotted it out in the wild, please comment below and let us know where you found it? Thanks!

Are you a fan of dry brushing? If so, do you think you'll give this brush a whirl?

Review: NEW EcoTools Complexion Collection Correcting Concealer Brush

Purchased by Me 

Back in the beginning of January I showed the new EcoTools Complexion Collection, but it took me a while to find these brushes locally. I finally did, and when I saw them in person I was drawn to the Correcting Concealer Brush, since I love small brushes for spot concealing. I've been testing this brush for about three weeks now, so let's take a closer look!

EcoTools Complexion Collection Correcting Concealer Brush

(retail: $4.99)

I purchased this brush at Walmart (the only retailer where I was able to find it locally at the time), but I've heard from several of you who have spotted this collection at other retailers. And if you can't find them in your area, you can always purchase via the EcoTools site (free shipping on orders $35+).

Review: EcoTools Skin Perfecting Brush for BB/CC Creams

Purchased by Me

I love BB/CC creams and I love EcoTools. So when EcoTools released a brush specifically for BB/CC creams earlier this year, I had to try it. I've been using this brush for a few months now, and I'm ready to give you my verdict!

Review: EcoTools Pure Complexion Deep Cleansing Facial Sponge (Konjac & Bamboo Charcoal)

Purchased by Me 

Back in January I did a post about all of the new-for-2014 products from EcoTools (you can see them all here), and one of their most intriguing new products was the Konjac (AKA Konnyaku) facial sponges, or Pure Complexion Facial Sponges, as EcoTools calls them. (Konjac/Konnyaku is a fibrous, edible root plant native to Asia, in case you're unfamiliar with the term.)

Konjac sponges are not new. Some of you may have had your first exposure to them via the Boscia Konjac Cleansing Sponge ($18 at Sephora), but Konjac cleansing sponges actually originated in Japan (this company claims to be the original manufacturer of them). If you take a look at their site, you'll see that Konjac sponges are offered in a "plain" white version, or they can be infused with something (bamboo charcoal, green tea, cherry blossom, citrus, mint, etc.). The EcoTools Pure Complexion Facial Sponges come in two varieties: Sensitive Skin, which is plain, and Deep Cleansing, which is bamboo charcoal-infused.

I purchased the Deep Cleansing version on the Ulta website a while back, and now that I've given it a proper testing, I'd love to share my thoughts with you.

Spotted: NEW EcoTools Skin Perfecting Brush for BB/CC Creams (and more!)

Unless I am just totally clueless (wouldn't be the first time), I can't recall ever seeing a brush designed specifically for applying BB or CC creams before. Well that's exactly what EcoTools has just released and, thanks to reader Dolly, I have pics of this new brush to share with you today!

Dolly spotted the new EcoTools Skin Perfecting Brush for BB/CC Creams at Walmart this week and was nice enough to share some pics with us.

EcoTools Cyber Monday Exclusive Brush Bundle (FREE SHIPPING)

I knew that the Black Friday/Cyber Monday beauty deals would start to heat up today, but I didn't expect it to get THIS crazy (and I'm sure it's going to get even more crazy in the next few days). But not to fear, because I've got your back, Nouvettes! I'll do my best to keep bringing you what I think are the best beauty deals around this holiday season! For example:

EcoTools has just revealed a Cyber Monday exclusive deal that you might want to mark on your calenders (I'll also add this to my Cyber Monday roundup, of course):

This is a NEW, limited-time-only product that is being launched on Cyber Monday (12/2) and EcoTools has not yet revealed the price. BUT, they have confirmed that you will be able to order it here and get FREE SHIPPING on Cyber Monday, starting at 12:01AM.

50% off EcoTools Alicia Silverstone Collection (and Lip Conditioner is back)!
