A how-to series for the ladies on creating your own 15 minute face, from cleansing to out the door. Budget and savings advice. A new fragrance of the month. Possibly an...

Clean Your Stinky Head Scarf...and other things - Part 4

And now the conclusion of the series... We've addressed the head scarves, the combs and brushes, and makeup tools.  Now let's cover the last items on the original list. Nail clippers, tweezers and other metal tools Begin by cleaning the item with soap & water or any cleaner you prefer but make sure you dry it thoroughly.  Drying thoroughly is essential to avoid rusting and the dulling of any sharp edges. For that extra level of clean called disinfected, you can soak the items in...

Fragrance of the Month - Introduction

This year ECV will be highlighting a different fragrance each month.  Let's begin by giving you a little background knowledge about fragrance families. In the beginning there were four basic families:  Floral, Oriental, Woody and Fresh. Now when shopping for a fragrance you may see or hear from the lady at the sales counter a number of other descriptions such as fruity, fresh or spicy. Here we're going to keep it simple and stick to the original four. This month we picked the fragrance...

The Birth of a Video Game

ECV founder here! I think the best thing about teaching children is the endless possibilities ahead of them and seeing them actually reach for those possibilities. It's inspiring and adds to the teacher's mental wellness when they actually recognize the ambition some students have. Take for example Hunter: I won't tell too much about him, but he's special and talented! He's designing a first person shooter video game set during World War I and allowing others to follow him through the process.  If video games are your thing or you've always...

Clean Your Stinky Head Scarf...and other things - Part 3

The other things to be discussed in this post are the often forgotten makeup applicators (brushes and sponges). There are great brush cleaners out there with easy to follow directions.  Yet for some reason we've run across women who don't realize that their blemish problems may be a result of a failure to purchase and use one of these cosmetic brush cleaners regularly. We currently recommend Sephora Brand Daily Brush Cleaner that starts at $6 a bottle. If that's a little steep, check back...
