Review: E.L.F. Cosmetics Mineral 4 Piece Bamboo Brush Set

Tuesday, January 10, 2012
If you guys saw my recent ELF Haul Video you would have saw one of the things I got was these ELF Cosmetics Mineral 4 Piece Bamboo Brushes. 

So these are what I am going to be reviewing tonight! 


Mineral 4 Piece Bamboo Brush Set

This antibacterial Taklon bristled brush is 100% cruelty free, luxuriously soft and can be used with wet or dry products and is ideal for e.l.f. Natural Mineral Makeup. The natural and sustainable bamboo handle fits ergonomically in your hand for comfort and precise application. The recycled Ferrule is eco-friendly for guilt free beauty. Because beautifying yourself and the world is a beautiful thing! 

Set Includes:

*Complexion Brush

*Concealer Brush

*Blending Eye Brush

*Mini Kabuki Brush

*Brush Bag 



Retail Price: $10.00



Everything about these brushes remind me of the Eco Tools brushes. 


 My first thoughts when I opened up the brush set was WOW, these brushes are soft. Even softer than the Studio Brushes. Also, they feel extremely sturdy. I have read a lot of reviews on these brushes and my thoughts on this particular set has nothing to do with what I read. A lot of people found this set to not be as much of a multitasking kit as they would have liked. 

For me personally, I could do EVERYTHING WITH THIS SET. I mean from foundation to eyeliner. I think people who say they can't multitask with these, really don't understand that all these brushes can do many things. 



 ELF Mineral Bamboo Complexion Brush



This brush could be used for anything from blush to bronzer to even using it for a highlighter. Super multitasking. 


ELF Mineral Bamboo Blending Eye Brush


This brush is also multitasking. Can be used for shadow all over the lid, then you could use it to blend in a dark crease color and it could be swept with color under the eye. 


 ELF Mineral Bamboo Concealer Brush


Yet again this could be for foundation, concealer, and even a gel eyeliner. Its got a point and you could get a clean line with this brush. You could even use it eyes shadow to line your eye too. 


ELF Mineral Bamboo Mini Kabuki Brush 


Again this could be used to add a finishing powder or a bronzer, blush and even foundation. A lot of people like kabuki brushes for foundation. 

See all these brushes are really able to be used for MANY different things. You just have to try them out! 


  All of the brushes, with the exception of the tiny kabuki are around 4 to 4.5 inches long. Perfect for travel or carrying in your bag.


All the brushes fit really nicely in this little bag and there is even room for a couple more if you wanted to add them. 


It has a nice little flap with a plastic snap that holds it closed. 

I love that this set comes with this little bag. There have been a few sets that I have bought that didn't come with a bag or case. I don't like my brushes just laying around in my make up bag or purse. Anything that goes on my face needs to be as clean as possible. So love the bag! 



I have travel brushes from MAC, Sima, Real Techniques, Revlon, and a few others.. and these will work just as the others do. I do think since they are very light in color you either have to get use to them stained up or clean them with a make up wipe after each use. I just won't do that. Especially if I am traveling. 

What really makes me happy about a set like this is you toss it in your purse.. most days you don't need it but then one day you suddenly find a situation where you are not home and need some brushes.. there they are.. in your purse and clean from being stored in their own little bag. That's when I really appreciate how


 ~ multitasking ~


they really are. I think Elf has done a really good job with most of their brushes. There are better ones out there but really.. their brushes work all the same. I have about 100 ELF brushes and love them. They stand up good to cleaning.. they don't loose their shapes.. and they work great. I love the studio line the best and you can get get all these brushes in full size  at e.l.f.   

Elf is always running sales so if you are interested in it, sign up for their daily email alerts and you will find them cheaper!

I am happy with this purchase. I am sure it will come in handy one day!! 

Here's my video review!

Enjoy!

Love these!!
