Review (5/5): I am a professional in the beauty industry and I recommend these brushes
Soft, sturdy and durable. You can feel the quality as soon as you hold one of the brushes in your hands. The diameter is a good size as is the length of 6." The bristles are soft and flexible yet hold product well, until application. There was no harsh feeling that can arise from 'cheap' brushes. I do recommend washing before using the first time as there was a scent of chemicals. After washing there was no hint of that aroma.
I have and do recommend these brushes. They are a high quality at a very good price. Yes, there are more expensive brushes that may or may not be as good. At this price and quality this is an excellent set of brushes that you just cannot go wrong with.
I think I will purchase several more sets, not only for myself, but for gifts as well. One set will do fine. I think three sets makes a good kit. At this price you can afford to get a set for everyone.
I may have gotten this first set at a discount or for free, but I do not mind paying regular price for the gifts that I have in mind. Discount or not, this review was based on my personal experience with these brushes.
