Review (5/5): Quality Brushes, case turns into 2 cups for storage and easy access!
This is a really great quality set of brushes. I am a mineral makeup user, and struggle to find brushes that pick up the right amount of product without being wasteful. I have several brands of brushes, some purchased from amazon and some purchased piece by piece in Ulta or Sephora and these brushes are the same type of quality you would expect to find in a beauty store. You get 12 brushes and a very nicely made carrying case, I actually split the brushes into face and eye and keep the case open as holders placing eye brushes in one and face brushes in the other. I like that the seller addresses the smell issue head on, they include it in the instructions, you need to air out the brushes for 2 days and then gently wash the bristles, I find that philosophy brand face wash is what I prefer to use as a weekly washing for the bristles it really restores and removed the makeup that accumulated thru out the week. I will breakdown the brushes and how I feel they perform.
1. Large Powder – perfect for my setting powder to complete the look.
2. Large Angled Contour - great for both blush and bronzer
3. Duo Fiber – use for stippling on my powder foundation
4. Foundation – applying foundation to my hairline and around my nose
5. Large Shader – works very well, picks up product without being wasteful
6. Concealer – smallish but so are the spots it needs to hit!
7. Medium Angled Shading – use for my eyebrow powder
8. Angled Shadow – great for my crease
9. Tapered Blending – awesome at working out the edges of the lid
10. Small Angle – use for my top lid eyeliner
11. Eye Liner – use for my bottom liner, fits well under the lash line
12. Pencil Brush – use it wet when I want to darken my mineral liner
I have had these for several weeks and I am impressed. I received these brushes at a discount in exchange for a honest review to test them and I am glad that I did.
