You’ve been in the shop, fell in love with the new makeup
brush your favourite Makeup brand has just launched but quickly fall into a
post-shop funk when you realise the price of your new heart’s desire. A quick
search on ebay will soon have your heart return to a normal rhythm.
NARS Yachiyo Kabuki Brush was like a work of art when I
first touched it. I loved the texture of the handle and the softness of the
brush. In store £43, ebay £1.58.
bareMinerals Perfecting Face Brush impressed me with its
innovative design, the well to deposit liquid foundation just made sense to me.
In store £24 /£1.38.
MACs 163 Flat Contour Brush seemed like an excellent way to
speed up my contour application and keep it sharp when required. In store £28 /
£2.55.
These brushes have been around for a while and there are
tons of reviews online to help you learn more. I would recommend that you try
ebay, taking the normal necessary precautions, first. The unfortunate situation
is many of the sellers are based in China and so you will have to wait at last
three weeks for postage. Spending an average
of £1.84 on a brush I wasn’t overly concerned if it arrived and was a dud, however
it has been my experience that these brushes have surpassed my expectations,
standing up in application and cleaning – result.
Have you purchased any makeup brushes online, what has been
your experience?
