Half of this brush
line features a rose gold handle with a soft pink ferrel with silver writing
and the other half features a rose gold handle with a dark brown ferrel with
gold writing. They all have a sturdy feel to them - I have only experienced
minor shedding in a few of the brushes. They are very good quality and seem luxury due to the rose gold handle.
The face brushes are pretty consistent in terms of being extremely soft and flexible. They all hold their shape very well after being washed. The eye brushes are similarly all very soft but a few of them went a little haywire after being washed. The numbers 228, 227, 221, and the 224 (which are all fluffy blending brushes) all lost their shape. The bristles poke out and they look like they've had a lot of wear and tear yet they have only gone through one washing. Other than those four all the eye brushes have held up their shape beautifully.
Since I find the brushes fairly consistent I simply wanted
to mention my top five picks! These brushes I reach for constantly - if not
every single day.
The 104 Buffer looks very similar to the Sigma F80. It is
very dense and has a flat top. This brush is EXTREMELY soft and blends in my
foundation like a dream. I am a very loyal beauty blender (BB) user yet I
haven't stopped using this brush since I first tried it. The fact that I reach
for this above my BB almost every day is astonishing to me. I thought that no
brush could ever give me the flawless finish that the BB gives me but I was
wrong. I absolutely love that when I use this brush my foundation looks
flawless. Sometimes if I put too much foundation on my face the BB doesn't
necessarily pick up the excess product but this brush definitely does! It
blends my foundation seamlessly and doesn't EVER make me look cakey. While I
don't get full coverage, since the brush does
move the product - not place it, it still is easily buildable and overall makes
my skin look great.
The 127 Luxe Sheer Cheek is a blush brush. It has that nice
angle to it that allows you to place the blush correctly without having to
blend out too much. I love the angle to it and find that the size is perfect
for my cheekbones.
The 110 Face Shape is another densely packed brush with a
domed top. I absolutely love this for blending out my concealer. It is similar
to the 104 Buffer because it picks up excess product and leaves you with a
flawless finish.
The 231 Luxe Petit Crease is a brush I like to use in my
crease. (Duh :p) It is one of their softest eye brushes and is tapered in a way
that places the product exactly where you want it. I tend to be a little sloppy
sometimes when applying my eye shadow and can tend to put my crease color too
far up/down. This brush allows me to be a little looser with my technique while
placing product exactly where I want it.
The 322 Brow Line - I LOVE this brush!! I am a huge fan of
the Milani Brow Fix - Brow Kit powders and always used the little brush that
comes in the kit but once I tried out the 322 I haven't gone back to that
little sucker. This brush has a slim enough line that you can create a sharp
end to your brow but also easily places powder in order to fill in your brow wonderfully.
There are a lot of repeats if you buy all the sets that I have but I am
definitely glad to have more than one of this brush!!
Overall I'm really enjoying these brushes. Before I had a
small collection of some Real Techniques, Elf and Bubbi brushes but now my
brush collection seems huge!!! These brushes can be expensive especially
considering you have to convert currency and pay for shipping from Germany (If
you are in the US) but I 100% think that they are worth it. I get so much use
out of these brushes and they are very good quality. A big thumbs up from me!!
