Advantages: Feels soft and lovely, blends well, versatile
Disadvantages: none
Price: £8.30
From: The Body Shop
For: Effortless contouring and blending
The brush has a very high quality look to it, with a black/grey handle and silver towards the bristles. It also feels really high quality and well-made.
This brush is made for blending and contouring your eyeshadows, but it's really versatile and can also be used for basic application of shadow. The shape and size of the brush is perfect for both shading large areas and defining your eyes with smaller strokes.
It feels lovely and soft against the skin and the feel of the bristles is amazing. The bristles pick up powders well and you can easily use the brush to create intense, bold colour or more subtle, sheer shadow looks.
Blending and shaping really is easy with this brush due to the shape of the bristles, you can just follow the contours of the eyelids with the brush and it creates the perfect look.
The edge of the brush can be used for lining and defining the eyes, and you can easily create thin lines by holding it flat or thicker lines by holding it at a slight angle. You can then easily create a smokey look by using the brush to smudge it slightly.
It's important to keep the brush clean to get the best out of it, but it is easily cleaned with a bit of a gentle facial cleanser or a proper makeup brush cleaner, and then just leave it to dry naturally.
All in all this is a brilliant makeup brush.
Thumbs up from me.
Summary: 5 stars

- 06/09/09 I think that's a pretty average price for a brush - I use the Ruby and Millie ones which are excellent |

- 06/09/09 You really can not do with your fingers what you can do with this brush, especially if you want to achieve a professional look and not the 'I'm just learning how to use makeup' look. I am intrigued as to how you'd manage to line your eyes with your fingers! And for the quality it's actually very reasonably priced. x |
