This kit is so-so
I ordered this kit based on the 4-star rating. When I received it I found that the eyeshadow brushes are way too stuff to really be useful. The powder and foundation brushes are great, the lip and eyeliner brushes are excellent, if a bit long (but bristles are easy to trim). The fan brush is okay, and the case is okay as well.<br /><br />The case is a bit larger than I expected (I neglected to measure my purse before ordering the brush set) so it barely fits in my purse so I usually bring a smaller brush set with me when I go out, leaving this kit at home.<br /><br />I actually ordered this one to replace old eyeshadow brushes, and so I was kind of annoyed that those particular brushes are worthless, so I went out and bought quality brushes at $20 a pop.<br /><br />Also, I do not bother with the eyebrow brush/comb, and it is already falling apart just from being in the case.<br /><br />It's worth it if you need a new case for your brushes, and also need new foundation and powder brushes, but expect to immediately throw a bunch of the brand-new brushes directly into the trash.<br /><br />- Update months later -<br /><br />I still use some of the brushes that came with the set but threw away most of them. I kept the larger ones since they work well for foundation, bronzer, blush, etc. and kept one of the smaller brushes for lip color but the others left a lot to be desired. Also, the brushes I did keep fell apart; the metal crimp does not hold the handles well so I used super glue gel to reattach them.  I still like the case though!
