Marionnaud Brushes Review

When i was first starting to use makeup then I always wondered why makeup won't work out on me like the people I used to watch on video tutorials and commercials. I first thought that brushes and applicators were not that important--just an additional expense on makeup. But now that my makeup collection is growing and growing, I realized that brushes are very useful to have your makeup on point. So today i will be reviewing my first set of makeup brushes. Nothing fancy though as I bought brushes with a starter price.

E.L.F Foundation Brush

First off, is ELF Foundation brush. It is made of synthetic fiber and It looks like a paint brush. It is quite flat which is a minus for me. As a foundation brush it is better to have a f brush that is round and abundant so as to cover or spread the product well.

It also leaves streaks as I apply the foundation. A good brush leaves an airbrush effect upon application. Plus points would be it is affordable and its bristles doesn't shed even when washed rigorously. Some brushes would have its bristles fall off easily when wet.

Marionnaud Brushes

Next will be Marionnaud brushes. Since I had a contour palette I needed an angled brush to properly contour my face. These brushes are semi-soft and synthetic.

Angled Blush Brush: The size of the brush fit my cheekbones perfectly. When I apply the product around 60% goes to my face and 40% remain on the tip of the bristles. I have no hard time cleaning the brush and the bristles is doesn't shed as well.

Eyeshadow blending brush: My fave among the bunch. I still do use an eyeshadow applicator when putting eyeshadow but this brush softens and blends well leaving a.gradient/soft effect of colors.

Eyebrow and eyeline double side d brush, but I call it angled tip and spoolie. I bought this because it is dual purpose. I don't need to but two brushes. The spoolie is much used. I use pencliner in my brows and soften it with the spoolie to make it more natural looking. Pencil liner creates harsh and sharp lines but the spoolie softens and make it more natural-looking.

Angled tip. I dont use this much though but the bristles are super soft and it bends. I tried lining my eye with this with an eyeshadow and the finish is subtle not useful if you want sharp, bold, cat eyes. As using gel liner, you need an ample amount of the product with this brush. It is not for gel liner per se but this is good to go.

Overall it has been useful in my makeup kit and definitely took my makeup up a notch. :)
