Coastal Scent brushes haul

Monday 27 October 2008



Coastal scent's brushes are usually raved for having some nice brushes at decent prices. This is my second haul and I got to say I'm a bit
disappointed. I guess some brushes are just overhyped on the internet. The brushes that were disapointing were the italian flat top brush, the pink kabuki, and the eyeliner brush. I haven't personally used these 3 brushes yet and it is based on my first impression. The italian badger flat top brush and the kabuki brush felt similiar to the bare escentual brush before. It felt prickly and scratchy so I'm a bit cautious using it on my face because I'm scared my face will start flaking :D haha but I will try them in the future when I get the time so I will come back and edit this post if I change my mind.

The brush I do love is the synthetic flat top buffer brush. It's so soft and and nicely packed together. It's made from synthetic so it's very soft like a babies bottom. This brush is just as good as edm kabuki brush. I only have to buff it into my skin a little so it's less irritation for my skin. It's love with this brush for me :p
I also love their large concealer brush. It's soft yet firm at the same time. Also because it's large I only need to sweep it across my horrendous dark eye circles twice to cover it up. I bought one of these at my first CS haul so this one is actually my second one. It gives each brush a good enough time to dry when I wash it.

The pink stripling brush is okies I guess. Great for applying blush if your a heavy handed person. The pink handle is cute. Compared to CS previous stripling brush, its more firm but feels more smaller.

In my CS package, I also got a free eyeshadow which was a reddish brown shade with green glitter. It's called secret earth eyeshadow. It's very pretty so I can't wait to use it!
