Very complete set
I'm very into nail art so this was one of the coolest things I've tried out in a while!<br />This is a pretty complete set - it includes any brush or dotter you'll really ever need. They're also in a cool case with a little info page explaining the different brushes.<br /><br />- The case is sturdy and makes the set very, very giftable! It looks pretty great.<br />- There are 2 brushes for acrylic paint, 6 for regular nail art, 2 for gel polish, and 2 double sided dotting pen/tools. That's a pretty complete set. If you're gifting it, you could sweeten the package by including polish, a bottle of polish remover, a small painter's palette, and precision-tip q-tips! But, all the brushes are included in this set.<br />- The two dotting pens are double-sided so there are 4 different dotters that give you a fantastic range. Can't imagine you needing any smaller or larger ones. They also have really cool sanded wood handles. I like the feel of them.<br />- The brushes have an awesome range, too. They're colour-coded and labelled by type (acrylic, regular polish, gel polish).<br />- Now the info sheet says to use polish thinner (or rubbing alcohol for gel polish) to clean them. I tried this and it just made it clumpy (maybe my thinner isn't a good brand for it!). It specifically says to avoid acetone but I used pure acetone to clean them which worked fine EXCEPT that it stripped the paint off the handle of the brushes. NON-acetone remover cleaned the brushes, didn't damage the bristles, and didn't strip the paint so that's what I recommend, personally. Non-acetone polish remover is your best bet. Just be gentle, no matter what you use, to avoid damaging the bristles.<br />- Overall, I love this little set and it's a great addition to my nail art collection.<br /><br />I bought this discounted in return for my opinions and review.
