AMAZING AND SAVES $MONEY$
Not only are these brushes ... AMAZING ... but the BEST thing I have discovered about them is they are saving me money by using way LESS makeup!!!   Seriously ... I never realized how much product my old (expensive-name-brand) brushes were &#34;soaking up.&#34;  I always thought it seemed like it took forever to clean all the makeup from them, but never had anything to compare it to.  UNTIL NOW. <br /><br />MONEY/MAKEUP SAVING:  I have been using these brushes for a little over a month now.  I clean my brushes every Sunday (with the little rubbery-do-dad-scrubber-thing-a-ma-jig these came with).  The first time I used them, I began with my concealer and learned quickly that the same amount that I am used to dabbing on was no longer necessary.  Then the foundation, highlighter, shadow, etc ... I literally had to wipe makeup off my face as there was just WAY TOO MUCH on my face.  That's when I realized that my former brushes were soaking up a ridiculous amount of my expensive makeup.   For the next week, I cut my &#34;makeup usage&#34; nearly in half ... then came Sunday-Cleaning day. <br /><br />CLEANING:  These brushes not only clean up so well, but it only took a few seconds running under the tap to clear out any makeup remaining in them.  THEY AREN'T MAKEUP-EATING-MONSTERS like I guess my old brushes were!!!  I laid them flat on a clean white towel and they actually dried very quickly  (which I thought was crazy since they seem big and contain a ton of short fibers all tightly packed together).<br /><br />BLENDING:  Anyone can become a highlighting and contouring PRO with these brushes.  <br />  Want the whole dramatic smokey-eye look???  These brushes make that SUPER SIMPLE as well.  <br />  Are you a makeup-minimalist?  Even on my &#34;makeup-minimalist days&#34; these are the BEST brushes for covering and blending the most minimal amount of makeup leaving that clean, simple, natural look.  <br />*THESE BRUSHES LITERALLY BLEND SO WELL, THAT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU EITHER AIRBRUSHED YOUR MAKEUP ON.  The reflection in the mirror is as perfectly polished and softly blended as any &#34;beautifying photo-editing&#34; app can do!*<br /><br />DOWN-SIDE/CONS:  OK... now the &#34;down-sides&#34; to these brushes...<br /><br />1.  They are big and bulky.  <br />    I purchased a big roll-up brush case to carry and organize all these brushes in and it works fine ... but don't expect these to fit into your normal makeup bag. <br /><br />2.  They aren't labeled.<br />  I matched each brush up with a photo on amazon of which brushes are designed for what purpose ... then I used my vinyl cutter to make some gold labels and stuck them to the handles of each brush (foundation, powder, highlighter, contour, blush, brow, shadow, shadow crease, etc.).   No confusion or grabbing the wrong one now.   A silver or gold Sharpie would work for this as well.<br /><br />OVERALL:   Buy these.  Then buy a set for gifts for all your girlfriends, mothers, sisters, daughters ... whoever!<br />    These are simply AMAZING brushes!!!!!!!!
