When it comes to me and brushes (with the exception of foundation brushes), it’s typically every man, or brush, for itself. All my non-base products are essentially “multi use”; lip brushes as contour brushes, contour brushes as mineral powder brushes etc, as long as it applies on well, It’s not a big deal for me.
The same goes for my eyebrows. Of late, I’ve started the routine of using a concealer around the perimeter of my brows and blending it out in order to achieve fleek-worthy, sharp slugs. For this, I’ve been using the Eco-Tools Eye Enhancing Duo Set (£6.99), which I purchased from Boots.
The duo set, intended for eyeshadow use, consists of two double ended brushes: a Shade/Define brush and a Blend/Smudge brush. To be honest, I couldn’t even tell you how to use these brushes traditionally because I seldom use eyeshadow, however I use the Define (slanted) brush to outline my brows with concealer, and the Smudge brush to, you guessed it, smudge and shade the concealer out.
I adore these brushes; the bristles are fine, very soft and are easy to manipulate and blend without being streaky; I also have a thing about bamboo/wooden brushes; I think they do look rather pretty and best of all, they are 100% animal cruelty free!
I’m currently in the midst of collecting more brushes; my makeup station needs updating and I’ve always found Eco-Tools brushes to be of great quality and remarkably inexpensive – you can’t really go wrong to be fair! *eyes up the eco-tools stippling brush*.
I really want to try eco-tools. These look so lovely! x
Ooo I'm so interested anything for brows lol. I use slanted eyeliner brushes for my brows more than the brow brushes as I find them too thick almost and I like mine tight and slim! Then again I'm growing out my brows at the moment *sigh* the joy!
I really like Eco-Tools brushes too, but I've lost a couple of mine! (a good excuse to pop to Boots and buy a couple of new ones!) I'm going to check out the stippling brush, they're my fave type! Thank you for your comments on my blog, Steph! In re: full size Roller Lash – The packaging design is different to the miniature sample, but I think the brush is the same. It might be bigger in size, I'm not sure, but the design/function is the same.
Loving the new blog design, for sure! Pipdig are soooooooooo good! x
You gotta love a good slanted brush, man. Yeah I find the traditional brow brushes really chunky, not useful at all!
– ooh are you using Rapidbrow again?
I've heard so many good things about their stippling brushes! I think that deffo needs a purchase. And thank you! Pipdig are so awesome!
You should! Couldn't recommend enough
They are chunky lol one of mine feel like it wants to take out off brow hairs instead of adding anything helpful.
Not this time I did debate it. I'm leaving it all up to genetics. I did shape them the other day one needs to grow in a bit but I'm satisfied – for now xo
