I recently attended the Spark Sessions conference, where I was given two of their brushes as well as some other bits, and I can say I was itching to get home to try them out. First, I must say I have used Tweezerman’s tweezers forever because I find them to be the most durable and they don’t dull as some of the others do. So when I found out they had makeup brushes, I hoped to see the same quality as I was used to. They did not disappoint! I was given the pointed foundation brush and the eyebrow brush, and I can say that for a synthetic brush, I have not found one I love more than these 2.
Foundation brush
Firstly, the pointed foundation brush ($28.99 CDN) brought back a little memory of one of my favorite Mac brushes that they stopped making (I have no idea why everyone loved it). So this brush had some rather big shoes to fill if I was going to like it. Let me tell you, I love this possibly more than my beloved Mac brush. It glides on the skin beautifully and is beyond soft (for those of us who are sensitive, this is a plus), and its smaller pointed shape allows you to really get that under-eye area without looking patchy as so many other brushes do. I honestly could go on and on about this brush, but I will try to keep it short and sweet.
Brow brush
Secondly, the brow brush ($16.99 CDN), which is equally great, is equally great. I honestly think if I had a full set of these, a lot of my current brushes would be getting the boot. For all of you out there with prominent brows, a brush like this is exactly what you should have. It makes the job really simple as well, so it is perfect for girls who are just learning about brows.
Whether you are a pro or a novice, I think these brushes are so well-made and very easy to use. I also found them to be quite simple to clean. They have a sleek black design, which I love, and they have labeled the brushes, which helps take all the guesswork out for those of you who are not sure which brushes to use for what. The only thing that remains to be seen is how they will hold up over time, but if they are anything like their other products, these brushes will be in it for the long haul. It may be too early to say, but I think I may have found two new ride-or-die brushes, so if you are looking for a great new set, give these a try.
