Review #26: Crown Brush HD Set


If you follow me on Instagram I posted a couple weeks back that I received Crown Brush HD set w/ Mirror and Tweezer. Making this my first makeup review and I'm so excited.

I was sent this set from iFabbo. iFaboo is a company that links beauty bloggers up with beauty companies. I ordered the set and within a week I had my very first Crown Brush set. Crown Brush is "recognized by the beauty industry as the global leader in cosmetic brushes with over 30 years of brush making experience."

The Hd set comes in 3 different colors. Orange, purple, and white with blue tips which is the one I received. These brushes retail for 69.99$ but you can get them on SALE right now for 19.50$ right now off of their website. These brushes are made with high grade synthetic fiber, are vegan friendly, and are perfect for applying high definition cosmetics.

The packaging was very pretty with the logo on the front. The brushes were EXTREMELY SOFT. I mean I could not stop rubbing the brushes on my face because they felt so freaking good. I have a couple sets of brushes but these were by far the softest.

Sorry my flash was a little too bright making it hard to see what the brushes names.




Starting with this brush called the "Detailed Liner". It is used to line fine lines like to do a winged liner!

Next this brush the "Talered Blush". This can be used to apply blush to the cheeks.

This round dome brush is a "Deluxe Contour". I used this brush to contour perimeter of my face and also the hollows of my cheeks.

The "Pro Powder" brush can be used as a setting brush once you have
completed your look.
The "Crease Blender" is just how the name calls it. It is used to blend out crease applications.

Last is the "Chisel Shadow" is used to apply eye shadow


Overall: Being that I am not a person that have tested and tried every beauty item out there I felt that this brush are good staple brushes. This set would would be great for a person needing a starter brush set because it provide the basic brushes need for doing makeup. The price is not bad and the are featured on Hautelook with better deals if you feel that the price that I stated above is a to pricey.

*DISCLAIMER *  I was sent these products for review and this is my honest opinion *
