i personally think that to get a beautiful and nice makeup,is always started with a good quality brush.as you know,MAC,Bobbi Brown,Shu Eumura producing very good brushes instead of any other brushes company (which is bunch of em).like me,i love MAC brushes.i have a set of them all and some of them i repurchased but still,i just love to have new brushes again.definately if i keep on buying MAC brushes it will burn my pocket off.haha.
so..i decided to try out new brushes.recently i went to Stage and Etude House.get 3 brushes for trial.foundation brush and concealer brush from Stage and shadow brush from Etude House.
what i can say is..well let me start with Etude House shadow brush.i dont really into it,since i found that the hair is not good enough,its a bit rough.and that makes the shadow color doesnt really get onto the hair and affecting the result on the lid.if u patient enough to reapply till u get the best color on ur lid,then u can go with this one.im not saying that this is horrible,just being me - i want a smooth process without needing me to do the same job over and over again so i need something that'll make things easy for me.and as for the price,reasonable - RM19.90.
and lets move on to the Stage brushes.if u're looking for a good brushes but lil bit lower on price,these will be it.because i found that the quality is not bad.or i can say its close to any other good brushes such mac (for these two).the special thing about the foundation brush is its lil bit smaller but compact and the hair ; is really good for creamy products.im very fussy when it comes to foundation brush because i found that its quite hard for me to clean them up without some foundation still remain on it.even after using my extra virgin olive oil.so i need to sometimes,clean in twice.so as for this brush,the hair is synthetic,and i found that this one is easier to wash.
for the concealer,yes i love it so much.like really.because it is similar to bobbi brown duet concealer brush that has been discontinued.nothing much to complain about this.and their price is reasonable for this kind of quality.RM90 for the foundation (if im not mistaken) and RM75 for the concealer brush.
so thats it!will do more review on another alternative brushes!
till then :)
