My Thoughts:
I love this makeup brush! The bristles are super soft. I love this brush for contouring my face. The bristles are tightly compacted, they pick up the product and apply very opaquely. It is very easy to blend the contour with this brush. The straight edge of this brush, makes it very easy for you to contour. I recommend this brush 100%!! This is my new favourite brush to contour! Delivery time was a few weeks.

Brush One:

The first brush is a Large Powder Brush. The bristles on this brush are super soft. The handle length of this one compared to the others is shorter. This brush would be the perfect size to hold in your handbag. This brush is excellent quality. I use this brush to apply my face powder to my face. This brush is great at blending your contour and blush so there are no harsh lines. 

Brush Two:

The second brush is the Large Tapered Face Brush. The bristles on this brush are very soft. I found the bristles aren't very tapered on this brush. I like to use this brush to apply my face powder to my face. This brush would be great at applying an all-over bronze to your face. 

Brush Three:

The third brush is another face brush. The bristles are soft but they aren't very dense. I don't reach for this brush as much as the other face brushes. Because the bristles aren't dense, the brush will give you a light application of the makeup product. It can be used for face powder, bronzer, blush or highlight. For any blushes that are extremely pigmented and you only want a light application, this brush would be perfect for that. 

Brush Four:

I love this brush! This brush is definitely one of my favourites from the whole set! This brush is the "Baby Version" of the Large Tapered Face Brush. The bristles are more tapered on this brush than the other tapered brush. I love using this brush to apply powder to my under-eye concealer. This brush is also great for applying highlight and contouring. The tip of the brush is great for contouring your cheek bones. The bristles are very soft on this brush. 

Brush Five:

This is another one of my favourite brushes from the set too! This is a Duo-Fibre brush. I've been using this brush to apply my foundation. Stipple brushes are great at applying foundation because they give an airbrushed finish. Stipple brushes are also great for applying other cream products, for example cream blush. I like using stipple brushes to blend my contour and blush to ensure there are no harsh lines. The bristles are super soft. 

Brush Six:

This brush shape reminds me of the Real Techniques Foundation Brush. This brush is very flat and the bristles are long. The bristles on this brush aren't as soft as the previous brushes. This brush is best used for cream products, for example foundation or concealer. I find brushes shaped like this can leave your foundation looking streaky. I tend to avoid these brushes. 

Brush Seven:

This is a concealer brush. The bristles are shorter than the foundation brush and are more dense. This brush might be too small to blend in under-eye concealer but would be great for blending concealer on blemishes. This brush is the perfect size for applying concealer around your eyebrows. Applying concealer on the edges of your eyebrows, perfects the edges of the eyebrows.

Brush Eight:
This brush is the "Eye-Version" of Brush Three. I don't gravitate towards this brush because the bristles aren't very dense. This brush can be used to wash a colour all over the lid to the brow bone. This brush isn't the best quality. 

Brush Nine:

Another one of my favourites. I never had a brush like this before in my brush collection. The bristles are soft and very dense. This brush is excellent at washing a colour all over the lid area - from lid to brow bone. I like to wash a light colour from lid to eyebrow. The brush is excellent quality. 

Brush 10 & 11:

The next 2 brushes are the same. The Brush set includes 2 blending brushes. These blending brushes are excellent! One collection can never have to many blending brushes. These brushes are definitely one of my favourites. The bristles are soft and they blend out eyeshadows excellently. In my brush set, one of the brushes seemed like they weren't glued straight onto the handle. Other than that, these are excellent! Perfect for all your blending needs!

Brush 12:

Brush 12 is a flat shader brush. This brush is great! I like to use this brush to smudge an eyeshadow onto my lower lash line and to pack eyeshadow on top of my gel eyeliner. The bristles are dense and great at packing an eyeshadow onto your eyelid. This brush can also be used to apply an eyeshadow to your tearduct as a highlight.

Brush 13:

Brush 13 is a flat top brush. This brush is excellent quality. The bristles are soft and tightly packed. I like to use this brush to fill in my eyebrows with an eyeshadow. You can also use this brush to smudge an eyeshadow onto your lower lash line. This brush can also be used to smudge eyeshadows onto your upper lash line too.

Brush 14:

Brush 14 is an eyeliner brush. The bristles on the brush are very soft. The brush bristles aren't very dense. The brush has long bristles. When I first seen this brush, I thought it was going to be very difficult to apply gel eyeliner. I have used the brush a few times now and it is very simple to apply gel eyeliner with this brush. Because the bristles are long and thin, the brush can apply the eyeliner thin. 

Brush 15:

Brush 15 is a Lip Brush. The lip brush has super soft bristles. The lip brush applies lipstick easily to your lips. The lip brush includes a lid, to carry easily in your bag. The size of the brush is perfect at applying lipstick to your lips. 

That's the end of today's blogpost! I hope you enjoyed it! I can't recommend these brushes enough! I must admit, I don't use all the brushes, but the other brushes definitely make up for it. I hope you enjoyed all the pictures of the brushes!
