I have a mini brush set from Ecotools that has served me well but I have not been able to source again to repurchase. Bought this larger set primarily because it was the closest to my needs. Recently invested in some Mykitco brushes at a higher price tag and was disapointed with quality and performance so thought best to go back and try old faves Ecotools.
The set itself is varied. The angled liner is totally useless for precise lines as splays out slightly towards the cut edge. If you want to line a horse's eye maybe this is okay..but seems too big for human eyes. Is okay to blend in eyebrows or kinda blur eyelines but no good for the job it is intended to. I have chucked it into the darker recesses of my vanity case.
The blurring brush is better for making a defined crease than the defined crease brush is. The defined crease brush is better at blurring than the blurring blush. Maybe Ecotools got this mixed up. Both are lovely for eyeshadow and if like me your upper eye skin is a little crepey..they do wonders to blend and minimise the crinkles. Gorgeous to use.They also work for light blending of concealer etc around eyes and crevices.
The angled foundation brush is firm firm firm..
I really wanted a replica of Ecotools mini blending foundation brush which is circular and allows for circular blending in all directions. This angled foundation brush is unwieldy to work with as rather narrow, a little too firm and only allows for limited directional blending...strokes blending in same direction. It isn't fantastic to blend with, but then neither was the Chanel or MAC foundation brushes I had before. I like a gentle circular blending.
The full brush is really full! More like a powder puff of old and powder goes everywhere. I use it to dab on then blend, using smaller blending brushes to reach creases. The finish isn't amazing but will do.
Over-all the set is an okay price for the two brushes I am happy with..and the ones I am not happy with I can get by with until they are replaced with others. Four stars because of eco thing. The components are sound and eco friendly.
