Review (3/5): Neat set for girls & tweens
Good in a fixed, but not for make up mavens. I bought this set because I had a staph infection in a cut on my face, and my doctor suggested replacing everything I had used on it including cosmetics and brushes. The bill piled up pretty high pretty quickly, so I was looking for a cheaper quick fix to the brush dilemma. I ordered these, and they got the job done. However, as a 42-year-old who has worked in the television business, these brushes we’re not what I was used to – the synthetic bristles were rough and not very good for blending, especially the eyeshadow brushes. I ended up using them as I replaced them with higher end brushes, which I would use to refine & finish my make-up.
I gave many of these to my friends’ tween & teen daughters, who thought they were great, especially for playing “dress up.”
So if you’re in a pinch, Or looking for a gift for someone that’s a beginner at make up, I suggest buying them. They are good as entry level, but don’t try to get a smoky eye from them.
