A while ago, actually during the January sales, I bought this makeup brush collection from Topshop. I had previously not owned an entire makeup brush collection, just a few cheap brushes here and there, so thought I would splurge.
The brush set cost me £26 if I remember correctly (so not so much of a splurge) but I thought it was a bargain, a good starter set, and loved the cute little case it came in too.
So for the review.
The Good
- The brushes were soft
- There is a good variety of brushes, including brushes for face, bronzer, blush, lips and eyes.
- Nicely shaped brushes
The Bad
- Quite thin bristles, not good for packing on colour.
- The brushes have started to shed quite a lot… very annoying!
- After washing the brushes, they do not seem as soft.
Overall I would give the brushes a 2/5. At first I was very happy with them, but it seems that after continually usage they have almost disintegrated as they just get worse and worse.
I am definitely looking at investing in some new brushes. Anyone got any favourites that don’t break the bank? Or does one have to pay money for quality make-up brushes?

I need some new brushes and don't want to spend a fortune. Brushes that shed all over my face is my pet hate! I usually buy The Body Shop brushes (the best I've used) but they're quite pricey 😦 Jen xhttp://kitsch-n-sync.blogspot.com
