Portable, funky, eye catching, and decent quality B.H. Cosmetics 10 Piece Pop Art Brush Set

10 Piece Pop Art Brush Set

 I got this brush set from the B.H. Cosmetics website for $24.95, I recommend waiting for a sale because shipping and tax adds up to over $30. But $30 for a 10 piece brush set and a cup holder is a pretty good deal tho. The cup is very comparable to the Sigma Travel size cup. The cup feels very sturdy, fits all the brushes nicely, but may be a little bit too short for long handle brushes. Very versatile and great for traveling. All of these are made out of synthetic bristles, I find some brushes with straighter bristles and some with fluffier bristles. The handles are all very sturdy and colorful.


 Powder Brush - Bright barbie pink handle, round puffy powder brush. This has a shape of a kabuki brush, I like using this for setting powder, blush and bronzer. This brush isn't that larger because it was meant for travel.



Angle Powder/Blush Brush - Pinky plum handle, angled puffy powder brush. I also use this for setting powder, blush and bronzer. The regular powder is a bit more dense than this brush.



Foundation Brush - Muted coral handle, flat paddle brush. This brush has the straighter bristles and I don't put on foundation with paddle brushes. I used this for concealer, no problem. This is just an average soft foundation brush with bristles that flare in the middle where the black begins and tapers at the end.


Flat Complexion Brush - Lime green handle, small flat paddle brush. This brush is just a smaller version of the foundation brush. I like this one better for my concealer because its more precise and sturdier. The bristles are very short and packed together, it makes it somewhat difficult to clean it.

Here is a side by side comparison of the two brushes



Complexion Brush - Yellow Handle, precise round and elliptical shape brush. I love this brush, I use it to contour, highlight, blend out concealer and set powder under my eyes. This fits right on the cheekbone, under the cheekbone, and under the eyes.



Tapered Eyeshadow Blending Brush - Muted blue handle, dense round blending brush. This brush is too large for my crease, I can't use this to blend out my crease. I can only use this to apply color on my eyelids and blend concealer. 



Fluffy Angled Eyeshadow Brush - Dark clover green handle, exactly what its called, a fluffy angle shading brush that has a lot of bristles. I use this the same way as the Blending Brush but this one is a bit smaller so I can actually use this to blend. 



Angled Liner/Brow Brush - Neon yellow handle, very thin and sturdy angle brush. This brush is great for applying gel and cream eyeliners because its so thin. One negative thing is that the white part might get stained from the dark color. I like using this to put highlight in the inner corners of my eye, fits perfectly.



Lip Brush - Pastel orange handle, thin tapered tip brush. I don't apply lip color with a brush, I use this for precise eyeshadow application. Fits great on the crease and inner corners of the eyes.



Spooley Brush - Lilac handle, regular spooley for your brows and eyelashes. To be honest, I don't use this. I have a e.l.f. one that is just $1, they all work the same.
