Review: Coastal Scents Brushes
Finally! After almost 2 weeks, I received my CS Brush orders. I was so ecstatic when I saw the yellow USPS envelope on top of our fridge. This is by far, my most favorite place on our home because all my online orders are put there. LOL!
Unopened. Take note of the pink paper with gold sparkly details. So Girly!
The Face Brushes
The Eye Brushes
These brushes are dirt cheap although the shipping is a little steep but I don't mind really because these babies are worth every penny. Here are my reviews on the face brushes. I will post my reviews on the eye brushes in a few days when I get to use them as I am -- STILL -- having a crazy life!
- Stippling Brush (MAC 187 Dupe) - This is my MOST FAVORITE in the bunch. It doesn't have that funky smell when you wash it unlike some of the other brushes. It picks up pigments very well and applies blush very beautifully. I love it so much that I am planning to order 1 or 2 back ups when they go on sale. LOL! Yes, that's how much I love it.
- Italian Badger Flat Top Brush - This brush has a faint distinct smell, it literally smells like animal hair but is still tolerable. It is very soft and picks up mineral foundation and applies them beautifully. It's a good starter brush for those who are new to mineral make up as you won't have any difficulty using it because the handles are very sturdy and you won't get "ngawit" when you buff.
- Fan Brush - This brush is so-so. It does the job but it's just not extraordinary. I use this to sweep off excess powders and to apply my MAC Sculpt and Shape Duo.
- Angled Blush Brush - What I hate most about this brush is that after washing it, the brush hairs are scattered everywhere. Literally. But still, it does the job but just like the fan brush. It's far from being extraordinary.
So there goes my reviews on the face brushes. If you're gonna ask me if the CS Face Brushes are worth every penny? I'd answer a resounding YES.
