Shikha Says:
This is another gem that I found while browsing the Faces store in Infinity, Malad. I was searching for a good face buffing brush and had asked for it in a few stores before I chanced upon this one. The big fluffy brush on display caught my complete attention.
Made from goat hair this brush has a wooden handle with gold detailing. The SA said that this was from their premier range. I really liked how soft it felt on my skin and the poufy just sold it to me. But before buying it I actually tried out the one on displaying by dabbing some powder product on the back on my hand. After my experience with Body Shop brushes lets just say that I’m a little vary when it comes to brushes now.
Just a little dab onto the product and a gentle swipe on my skin transferred the product beautifully on my skin and I did not hesitate to pick it up. This is tagged at a price of Rs. 599/- which I felt was very decent especially given the quality of the thing. I have used this every single day in Mumbai as part of my makeup routine.
I found it best when used with powder products ie I use this brush to pick up the powder and then deposit it on to my skin. It works for liquid as well but has a slight edge with powder based (atleast I felt so – I could be off my walker for saying it but that was my observation). What I did with it was that I applied my foundation with a stippling brush and then I used this in a rolling motion over my face to buff out the foundation and give a more flawless look. After my concealer, I took some transparent powder with the help of this brush and dabbed it on my skin. Once I covered my entire face with the powder I then buffed that out as well with this brush.
A really good find for me as I was searching high and low for something like this. It fit the picture I had in my mind perfectly. My only iffy-ness with it is that my piece was not as poufy as the one in the store 🙁 Though it has become wider with use and I hope it will become like the one I saw but I’m still a little tiffed (humph).
Well that’s that for now. Hope you liked the review and were able to find a good addition to your brush collection. Do let me know if you intend to pick this one up or if you have already tried it. Until next time – Ciao!
