EBAY MAKEUP BRUSHES
When I saw Louise post
about these amazing makeup brushes I couldn't stop myself ordering
them. Less than £3 for a makeup brush? Win! More than anything I was
curious to see how they perform, as I do own a few real techniques
brushes and they are quite obviously a dupe (although I do wonder if
they are infact too similar...). When they arrived I knew as soon as I
opened them that I couldn't wait to blog about them.
Despite
the cheap price tag, these brushes are incredibly soft.They feel sturdy
but I have experienced shedding from number 04 (the red one). They are
exactly the same size as the RT alternatives but I can't comment on
whether or not they last as well because I haven't owned these long
enough. Number 04 is a foundation brush, much akin to the Real
Techniques buffing brush, which you cannot buy alone. This was the main
reason I picked the foundation brush, because I couldn't justify paying
£21 for the kit when I only wanted one brush. Initially I thought it
could have been more dense, but after giving it a go I can conclude that
it applies foundation beautifully, leaving a really lovely finish with
the perfect amount of coverage. I find the contouring brush (number 01) a
tad small for it's purpose (which is why I initially bought it) but it
does work well for concealer or highlighter. They wash well and although
not quite as soft as when I bought them, they are still pleasant to use
and still fulfill their purpose.
You can find them from this seller. I got number 01 (pink) and number 04 (blue). They arrived in a week or so, which is fab because they come from Hong Kong.
