Shade + Light Eye Contour Brush

By Mariella 10 years ago.

While this brush is overpriced, especially in Canada, you are getting a "2 for 1", which is both a benefit and a pain, since storing double-sided brushes can be a hassle if, like me, you store your brushes in a jar or similar container. It's also a fairly "specialized" brush and it's not the only one you'll need, even with the Shade+Light eyeshadow palette. One end is a dense and very effective crease brush that works well also for blending/diffusing colour. The other side is a very pointed pencil-type brush but smaller and finer than MAC's 219, for example. This makes it really great for getting a light/brightening shade right into my inner corner and also for apply and blending colour under my lower lashes. But you will still need something 239-ish for applying colour to your lids. I got this during the 20% off VIB sale at Sephora, otherwise, I think I'd have found it too pricey for how limited it is, especially when there are such good brushes out there for a lot less. And they could lower the price by ditching the rather silly "coffin" container.
