Beauty Cosmetics Holiday Travel Brush Set Review

Finally I've decided to post a review about my favorite brush set. This is the Holiday Collection Travel Brush set from Beauty Cosmetics, I will admit that this was another compulsive purchase, but one that I will never regret! Last November I was in Tiendesitas area for my appointment with my dermatologist, I arrived 1 hour ahead of schedule so I decided to wander around the newly renovated stores in Tiendesitas. I know that Beauty Cosmetics has a store there but I didn't plan to buy anything although I've been wanting to have their Face Perfection Brush Set. I went to check out the face perfection brushes unfortunately they don't have stocks, only the holiday collection and other individual brushes are displayed there. After several minutes of contemplating, I decided to buy the Travel Brush Set in purple and went to proceed with my facial session. :)



The set comes with  five face brushes: The powder brush, round buffing brush, angled brush, foundation brush and concealer brush.



Aside from the face brush, the set comes with eye brushes: The bend eyeliner brush, lip brush, angled brow brush, angled shader brush, fluffy eyeshadow brush, bullet brush and tapered blending brush.

Here is the one by one review of each brush.


Powder Brush
        This brush is really soft and not scratchy, I usually use it with my loose powder and barely use it with my compact powder (I prefer to use a brush than a sponge.) The only problem with this brush is that it is not dense enough.


Round Buffing Brush
        This is my favorite brush from the whole set, it is dense and it is perfect for buffing powder onto the face to give a perfect smooth finish.


Angled Blush Brush
        This brush is perfect for applying blush and bronzer. If you are a fan of contouring then this brush will work out well for you.


Foundation Brush
        This one is dense but not stiff, I was able to blend my foundation without leaving streak of foundation on my face.


Concealer Brush
         This is good if you want to conceal marks on your face, but I find it big to use under eye to cover my eye bags so I still prefer my smaller Virginia Olsen concealer brush to use under my eyes.


Tapered Blending Brush
           This is my second favorite brush from the set, I like how fluffy it is and I love it every time it glides smoothly on my eyelids.


Bullet Brush
           This one is perfect for shading the outer corner of your eyelids, sometimes I use it as a blending brush too.


Eyeshadow Brush
             This is a medium sized eyeshadow brush, when using it to apply eyeshadow make sure that you shake it off first before you  apply it on the eyelid, because it has the tendency to get too much eyeshadow. 


Angled Shader Brush
          I typically use this brush to apply eyeshadow on my crease because its angled form makes it easier to slide up and down my eye crease. 


Angled Brow Brush
         I find this brush too big to actually use it to fill my eyebrows. It is half size bigger than the usual angled brow brush and it is thicker too.

 
Lip Brush
         I rarely use this one because I usually apply my lipstick straight from the stick. But every time I want a fully defined lips then this brush is my bestfriend.


Bended Eyeliner Brush
          I honestly haven't tried using this brush because my liquid eyeliner comes with a good brush. It is the only one that is normally untouched every time I do my make up, but I hope I will have the heart to try using this brush soon.

I love this brush set because it is soft and does not shed when I wash it, and I love it more because it is really handy. This travel brush set is on the top of my Beauty-on-the-go list because it gives me the ease to bring it anywhere I want since it is light, and does not occupy much space on my bag. I bought this for Php. 1100 and it is one of the worth-it-no-regret-purchase of my life. So if you are one of the beauty on the go girls out there then you should try a travel brush set like this, so you can be beautiful anywhere and anytime you want ;)
