The brush that got me interested in the set is the buffing brush. I was using the elf powder brush at the time for foundation application and it just wasn't cutting it for me.
I've had them for close to a year now and they don't know what shedding is! they just don't. I'm a freak when it comes to washing brushes and these look and feel the same way they did the day I received them.
I just wish that the handles were smaller though. They are just FAT and that FATNESS makes storing them in holders difficult sometimes. Other than that eh, they are perfect.
I bought the set from victoriahealth.com for £20.99 which is like N5,130. These brushes are worth every penny I spent on them!
BUFFING BRUSH - this brush I think makes most people buy the collection purely for itself due to the fact that it isn't sold separately. Its with no debate my favourite brush in the collection because it applies any kind of foundation like a dream.
CONTOUR BRUSH - what i love most about this brush is the size. It fits the hollows of my cheeks perfectly and that on its own just makes contouring easier for me.
POINTED FOUNDATION BRUSH - I mainly use this brush to apply concealer. The size of the brush and the way it is built makes it perfect for applying and blending out concealer.
DETAILER BRUSH - I have a couple of lip brushes but this little guy here trumps them all. It says on the pack they came in that it can also be used for concealer but I think its way too small for that. This I think is perfect for lipstick and lip colour application.
XOXO,
Excellent tutorial! I'm tempted to get the brush kit soon for personal use sha...

DeleteAbout the brush, I had it delivered to a family member in the UK who was coming back to Nigeria. I don't think they deliver outside the UK.
