I did a double take when I looked at this Japonesque Silhouette Brush Set on the HQhair website. €39 for a pro brush set and case? Nah, I thought. That’s obviously for one brush, not the lot. But I was wrong – it doesn’t happen often, but I will admit it when it does.
Nope, that price is for 5 brushes – powder/blush brush, concealer brush, shadow brush, eyeliner brush, and lip brush with cap. You’d pay €40 for a lot of single brushes, so this is truly great value. The brushes come in a nifty little case which also contains space for all your bits and bobs – brilliant for weekends away. I’m impressed!

Wow, that’s brilliant.
yep, I so need to get some decent brushes – I’m so ashamed of the ones I have!
Wow – deffo gonna get this! Thanks for letting us know!
I cought of set of 7 ‘real deal’ MAC brushes with a case on ebay for about 40 euro including shipping and they are the real thing. Was sooo happy.
Has anyone used this brand?
Same here Red. I’m dubious about this one. Is it a ‘proper’ brand?
no foundation brush though?? most important one..
Just found a real bargain…Elizabeth Arden set of 5 make-up brushes for £2.19 on FD! http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/Cosmetics/Elizabeth-Arden/ElizabethArden-BrushSet-p-8626.html
Also a saving on EA make-up pallette, reduced from €270 to €36.55 (a saving of €234.06)!! What is going on with FD?!
Lots of real bargains at the minute….
[...] Beaut.ie: Looking for a good makeup brush set? Check out this European beauty: Pro Brush Set for €39? It’s got to be a joke, yeah? [...]
That palette sounds/looks great Gio, but I had a quick Google for it and Amazon are selling at pretty much the same price as FD so I’m not sure if the €270 RRP is entirely true, then again, it does look very good value all the same
Hmmm…pardon my cynicism, but at that price are they a bit useless?! I bought a couple of Bobbi Brown brushes lately – wow! Really notice the quality. Gorgeous. I love really fab brushes and I think, in my experience anyhow, that when you shell out for something top notch it makes a big difference. That said, I haven’t tried anything at the bargain end of the scale. Anyone tried these brushes?
Not sure if anyone reads the comments from this far back *echo echo* but I was looking on Make Up Alley the other day and Japonesque brushes got a lot of favourable reviews. Won’t be buying myself as I’m on an economy drive at the moment but just thought I’d let ye know…
