Advantages: Gorgeous, and fantastic value
Disadvantages: Could do with an instruction booklet and a smaller shadow brush
This is a truly lovely set of make-up brushes that comes beautifully packaged. The case actually looks and smells like real leather and it is hard enough to keep the brushes completely safe whilst travelling. The lining is high quality too.
The set includes the following brushes: 1 powder, 1 blush, 1 foundation, 1 concealer, 1 medium eye shader, 1 smudger, 1 pointed eye liner, 1 flat eyeliner, 1 angle eyebrow, 1 angle eye fluff, 1 brow/lash brush and 1 lip brush.
The brushes themselves all have the names engraved on them so you know whether you're using a flat eyeliner brush or an eye shading brush, which is really helpful. I think a simple advice booklet on how to use each brush for the best effects would have been a nice addition for make-up novices though.
The handles are sturdy and short enough to give good control but long enough to not be fiddly. The brush heads are incredibly soft and feel amazingly smooth and silky on the skin.
The concealer brush is slightly firmer and is absolutely perfect for covering up blemishes and spots - a real lifesaver for those of us who've previously tried to cover up our skin imperfections with concealer dabbed on straight from the stick!
The powder brush is lovely and big though the blusher brush is a little small for me and you will need to practise your blending to avoid getting harsh or noticeable lines.
I would however say that the eye shadow brushes are all quite large and I could have done with a slightly smaller one to be included.
Altogether though this is an excellent set, and as a high quality single make-up brush will not leave you much change from a tenner if bought individually, I highly recommend snapping up this set whilst its at its current low price!
The RRP of this set is £99.99 but it is currently avaliable on Amazon.co.uk for £35.26 which I think is brilliant.
