This the set of 5 brushes which were reduced from £18 to £10 in the sale and are also available at john lewis for £10. Now I love the appearance of the brushes, they have clear plastic handles and plain black brush heads. Simple and it works.
However in this set there are 3 brushes I love and 2 that for me come up slightly disappointing.
The Top brush is the blush/powder brush. I love this brush. It's very soft and picks up the exact amount of powder to apply to your face and does not apply it patchy or cakey. It doesn't absorb the powder either, so a light brush across the powder will fill the brush head. I love this and use it for my face powder, bronzer and blush. Its so practical.
The second brush down is the angled brush which again I love. Its soft but stiff so you have full control over it. Its thin and perfectly lined which is great for eyebrows and applying powder along the lash line. This has got to be my favourite brush in this set simply for how amazing I find it to be.
The middle brush is the shading brush. I like this brush, It does what it says, its soft and blends perfectly and i just use this to blend out my eyeshadow and blend it under my eyes and it works very well.
Now for the disappointing brushes. The second one from the bottom I just didn't know what to do with. I tried it with concealer and it was useless. I might attempt it as an eyeshadow brush but I have so many of those. It just seems a bit useless.
The bottom brush is an eyelid brush for eyeshadow. This just gets the eyeshadow EVERYWHERE!!! It's too big for me, I find it hard to control and end up with the powder everywhere and for me this brush is just too big and didn't do what it was supposed to.
For £10 I think the 3 brushes that are amazing are worth it. I wouldn't buy again simply because I wouldn't want anymore of the brushes I can't use. But for a cheap set of brushes these are of reasonable quality!
Now I also brought a single brush
This is their eyeshadow brush in neon pink which was a measly £4! Not only do I love the colour of the brush and how the brush head also is pink, this works amazingly! It's not too big so it's easy to control and the eyeshadow goes simply where you want it. I find there is little excess powder on the brush and it just applies it really well. I can't wait to try some of the other brushes in the range!
So I hope this helped you! Please check out my youtube channel which is AmyyCon for hauls and other videos when I get some Ideas! Thanks guys! :)
