Great brushes, Dupe for Sigma

So I have several things to say about these brushes. I'll present the cons first. 1)Brushes are not the softest, but are still soft 2)There are several bristles that are too long. I just used tweezers and pulled those out for smooth tops. It was only on 2-3 brushes. 3)The card that comes with the brushes is incorrect on many of the brushes and how they are used. At the end of this, I will present the real uses of the brushes with the associated numbers on the card. 4)I hate how thick the base of the face brushes are. They don't fit in my organizer. Pros: 1)Cheap. Work well. Dupes for Sigma, but take that with a grain of salt. Sigma brushes are much softer and sturdier. I prefer cheaper brushes because I use brushes a lot and only clean them once every two weeks so I keep a good stock of various brushes. 2)Easily cleaned. Brush hairs did not fall out. This might change with time. 3)Good range of brushes. I like how the bristles on the face brushes are densely packed. You don't find that too often on cheap face brushes. 4)I love the little tiny brush for eyeliner. I like that it is angled. Makes it easier. However, the bristles separate easily, but that happens with all cheap tiny brushes. I make it work. Time for the corrections on the card: 1)Angled brush. Use for blush, bronzer, contour, powder, and even foundation, though not the best for foundation. I use 2)Flat angled brush. Use for blush, bronzer, contour, and foundation. Great for foundation. 3)Flat top brush. Use for foundation. Great foundation brush. I prefer the flat angled brush though. 4)Round brush. Use for blush, bronzer, contour, powder, and foundation, but not the best for foundation. I use this for blush. 5)Tapered brush. Use for foundation, concealer, powder. I use this under the eye area. I use this with powder. Here's where the brushes start to be described wrong. 6)Blending eye brush. Use for eye shadow, to blend out. I like to have several of these on hand, so I have like a dozen $1 elf brushes of this variety because I use this a lot. I feel my elf brushes are better quality than this. I think this is a good size for the brush but it should be the biggest eye brush and this one is not the biggest of all the eye brushes. 7)Angled crease brush. Use this with eye shadow in the crease. The angle helps it get right in there. I think this is a little too big for my eye, but I can still make it work. I prefer angled crease brushes to be a bit smaller. Like half the size of this. Maybe I have small eyes? 8)A really f*ing big eye brush. Idk what I would even use this for. Probably packing all over my eye, but it is too big for my eyes in my personal opinion. I might play around with this for spot touch ups on acne. 9)Concealer brush. This is my favorite kind of concealer brush. Some are a little too stiff for me. This one is great, though. I actually stopped using concealer brushes a while ago, so I use this as a smudger brush for my lower lash line. It works well with cream eyeshadows. 10)Tapered crease brush. This is an amazing crease brush. A little stiff though I prefer my eye brushes less stiff. 11) Tapered detail brush. Use for shadow on the lower lash line, use for eyeliner, or other fine details. I'll be honest, I love liquid liner and I cannot for the life of me use gel liner or any liner in a pot. So this will probably never get used for me unless I"m doing avant garde details. 12)Liner brush. This is a classic old school liner brush. I prefer an angled brush for liner, though. I get no use out of this. It's really stiff. 13)Angled liner brush. Looove this. Only brush I can make gel eyeliner work with. Just wish it were a little stiffer. Is a bit flimsy and the bristles separate. 14)Fan brush. use for highlight on cheekbones. I don't get any use out of fan brushes. 15)Brow brush. Spoolie on one end, angled streak brush on the other. I HATE dual ended brushes, because one end gets smushed in the cup. I think that is ridiculous. This is NOT a lash brush. The spoolie is for brows. You can tell by the stiffness. If you want a lash brush, purchase single use ones from ulta or the drug store. Since I don't do my brows, I use the spoolie to scrape dead skin off my lips. 16)Lash and brow brush. So I looooove these brushes. I have long lashes and thick wiry brows. For the lashes, I use the finer side and brush through them before and after I apply mascara. I have to clean these frequently or the bristles break so I go through a lot of these. The more bristly side I used to use to scrape dead skin off my lips when using a lipscrub mixed with vaseline, but then I got my first spoolie last year and use that. I go througha lot of these brushes even though I clean them a lot. I also use the bristly side to brush through my brow hairs and it's the only thing that pushes them into place.

Must buy!

I’m a professional makeup artist and I’ve been in search of brushes that are good quality but not super expensive and I came across these and I’m pleasantly surprised! I usually have multiple clients back to back so sometimes I don’t have time to clean my brushes so I needed some backups and now I find myself using these just as much as my Morphe and Real techniques ones (which I love). The bristles are super soft and they don’t shed at all. The face brushes are super dense and don’t soak up too much product. The eye brushes are soft and can blend and pack on shadow really well. I also didn’t notice any odd smells. I would definitely reccomend this!

Fixed my issue right away!!! Read whole review

I just opened my brushes and i immediately began to put them in order to make sure I knew what was for what. Upon doing so I noticed I had two of the angled brow and spooly brush. Weird I thought. It appears that the angled detailing brush was left out of my kit and they threw in an extra spooly brush. Overall the brushes are super soft and the handles feel nice. I haven’t had a chance to use them and test out how they apply but I’m sure it’ll be fine. I would give this 5 stars but they forgot to include one of the brushes which sucks. *EDIT* The company immediately reached out to me and personally asked and corrected my issue. They issued a full refund and sent me a whole new set for free. They were super kind and attentive and I really appreciated that. Will definitely recommend this product and brand to my friends. ❤️

Soft but firm!

Super soft but firm. I was hesitant to buy this because of some the bad reviews. But I'm beyond happy I bought these! I bought them for my sister but I'll have to buy another set for myself! I own a makeup brush that costs $35 so when I say these are good I mean it! I am shocked at how nice they feel. And for those who say the makeup doesn't stick well to it obviously hasn't "broken" in the bristles. That's what happens to my brushes everytime I wash them. These brushes are perfect I cant state that enough. And amazing for the price!

High end on a low end budget

When I saw these brushes were less than $.70 a peice, I wasn’t expecting much. Wow they are beautiful, soft and seem high end. I bought a smaller set at target a few years back for twice the price and these blow that set out of the water! Would definitely recommend buying them if you are looking for an inexpensive option.
