I own several sets of makeup brushes….my husband says I have an addiction because I have so many. I was really excited to get these brushes, but these did not meet my expectations at all. I fully believe honest reviews are important and I cannot recommend this set.
First, this case is not faux leather. It felt like a really cheap almost plastic type material. Actually it reminds me of the material shower caps are made of. That in no way resembles faux leather to me. But to be honest, I don’t normally use the cases included when I get brushes so this wasn’t a total deal breaker for me.
So I actually pulled the brushes out and started filming to review the quality as by now I have enough experience with brushes to be able to tell the quality by just really looking them over. So immediately I was disappointed with the amount of fallout from the brushes. I hadn’t really noticed when I used the fan brushes for my highlight but as you can see from the video, there’s definitely way too much fall out.
Next, I was twisting the ferrule to make sure it was attached to the handle well as that’s one of the biggest problems with cheaper makeup brushes. They aren’t well attached and fall apart, especially when you go to wash them. As you can see the brush came apart in my hand with just a pull. I ended the video there because there was no point in continuing, but as you can see these brushes are not quality. I wouldn’t recommend these at all. I did contact the company to let them know in case it was just a fluke, but received no response.
