Thoughts:
So I am not gonna lie I kinda expected to be missing a few stones by the time I received my shippment. We all know that ELF products are great but sometimes can be hit or miss or you really get what you pay for.
All of them were completely intact in there own little pouches . The Purple Eye brush was slightly bent but thats totally fixable.
They will look soo pretty in any vanity in a small vase or something clear to showcase them well. I have brush holders that have that filler inside and would definitely NOT recommend sticking them in there because it will totally knock off all the gems !
I believe these are natural not synthetic brushes and have a feeling them may shed once I give them a good cleaning. Fell a bit rough to the touch but will have to play with them and condition them if I can .
They are a bit pricier than there normal Studio and essential brushes I am sure it has to do with the fanciness of them all. They are a bit smaller more like travel size in my opinion.
I am excited to use these and display them on my station!
Collect them all in every color too! LOL
Cute bling! I'm hoping they'll reach the UK site soon, I want these for Christmas! xx
They are so cute, besides the pride and size how do they compare to the regular brushes?
@ Glitz Glam I love them played around with them today and my fave are the eye brushes especially the crease brush it real gets in there really well very precise. The Kabuki is awesome too because it is soo full and dense that it applies powder perfectly!
These look so cute, I really want to try the blending brush.
Hopefully it will be available on the UK site soon :)
Are they soft? I saw them @ target I kind tried out the kabuki one a little bit(just felt it on then back of my hands), it is not as soft as I thought... maybe I am wrong?
@Katherine They arent as soft as I would have liked more so the Kabuki a bit prickly to the touch
