SHANY Makeup Brushes Artisan Easel Elite Cosmetics Make up Brush Set, Complete Kabuki Makeup Brush Set - Old Packaging

I have never been less than completely satisfied with a Shany product. I bought my daughter a train case for her makeup, and it was great quality and very durable, for a reasonable price. I made the mistake of buying another brand for my wife and it lacked quality. As for the Shany brushes, this is our third set. Both their natural and synthetic brushes are fantastic. They are reasonable, they tend not to shed much, if at all, and they are very soft on the skin. The Pros of this set are obvious: great quality, fantastic selection of brushes, nice case, and very reasonable price. The only con to this set is not owning it! This set is perfect if you want some common brushes, but are really looking for eye shadow brushes. There are at least 6 brushes specifically designed for eye shadow, along with a few others you could use on lids and around eyes as well. The case is nice, and holds all the brushes, which are labeled on their shaft. I really like that feature, so the brush tells you its intended use, rather than a separate piece of paper or the case, etc. You can also keep the case folded open and it will support itself upright. I have seen some people say the brushes are made in the USA. I believe they are made in China, in case that matters to you. Any Shany brush set we have owned has worn exceptionally well and I expect no different from this one. These are great brushes, and for the price absolutely incredible.

I ordered this set after seeing a really gross video where someone grows mold, bacteria and fungus in a Petri dish from a swipe of a “clean” makeup brush. For obvious reasons I decided to swap mine out and start fresh. Instead of going to hunt down new brushes and spending a fortune, I decided to check Amazon and the quality seems great. I was not expecting these to be so similar to the better brushes in my collection, but they are dense, tightly packed, and super soft just like a $40+ brush if not better. In my initial inspection of the brushes I did not experience much shedding. A couple of them lost a fiber or two. I like that the brush tips are light in color so I can make sure they are clean. The holder is very convenient both for display and organizing and for travel purposes. Compared to a different cheaper set I also ordered, this provides a lot more value because all the brushes have purpose, and this also comes with the holder. This set comes with more of the larger brushes like a large tapered brush, stippling brush, and a medium powder brush, when compared to cheaper sets. The only brushes this set lacks are a very large powder brush, eyebrow wand and eyelash comb, which can always be purchased separately. I prefer disposable tools for brow and lash and rarely ever use a large powder brush, so it doesn’t bother me. Overall I would recommend this set to amateur or professional makeup users. The brushes that it comes with are suitable for 99% of everyday makeup needs and it was very affordable.

This is a great set of brushes for blending and application of makeup. I think that the quality of these brushes is a great value for the price. I love the fact that these are great for different uses and also that the brushes are labeled for what purpose they're used for. I haven't used every single brush yet, but just the feel of them is soft and not scratchy. I really like how they are just the right level of softness for my skin, but are also firm enough to apply makeup properly. Although they smelled like plastic/chemicals upon opening, the smell was minimized after washing them. I think that the smell will probably go away after multiple uses when I've been able to break them in. I'd definitely recommend these brushes for anybody looking for something to start out or practice with, and I can't wait to show these to my friends! Pros -The brushes are soft and not scratchy on skin. -They are firm enough to apply makeup precisely and evenly. -The value and quality are great for the price. Cons -There was a chemical or plastic smell coming from them upon opening the box, but it will go away after continued use and regular cleaning. -I'm assuming the 2 cream-colored brushes people are referring to are the EC001 tapered crease and ES007 pointed smudger eyeshadow brushes. These brushes truly are worse in quality compared to the rest, and I'd recommend using other eyeshadow brushes for better application. -There's no information about what material the brushes are made out of other than "natural and synthetic bristles." It would be nice to know what the bristles are made of in case anybody with allergies buys this product. I personally haven't had any issues yet, but I'd recommend labeling this clearly since some of my family members and friends have had allergic reactions to natural hair brushes in the past.

I am going to try helping you out by doing two reviews in 1. I was indecisive on which makeup kit to purchase so I decided to buy both and would give one of them to a friend. Both kits arrived ahead of schedule and together which made it easy to review this quickly. For starters, I am not a makeup expert and could be considered a beginner trying to play around with more now that I am getting older. To be honest, I love the overall brushes and how it has the name of brush written on each one. The softness of the brushes are amazing and it feels great on my skin. Unfortunately, that is where my love for this kit ends. I was excited because of how it displayed the brushes but you have to be extremely careful putting it up or other brushes will fall out. Even when packing it up, you'll need to carry it sideways because they will still fall out. I purchased this kit because of how it displayed the brushes, so I have to admit that I am disappointed. I will probably remove them from the case and put them in a different make up bag. Speaking of the bag, I have attached a picture of both kits side by side. This bag looks like it is an old CD holder...that was purchased at the dollar store. The other is more visually appealing. I am not saying to purchase the other makeup brush kit over this one, just stating the pros and cons. While the other is more attractive, it does not name the brushes like this kit. They both carry 2 completely different brush sets so overall, I am not disappointed. Just please don't buy this if you are using it for the display factor, because you will be disappointed.

Nice brushes, soft bristles, clean easy.

Okay first of all I'm saying this now buy them....and I was not paid or discounted in any way I paid the whole enchilada. Okay well first of all I'm so thankful I trusted my gut because these brushes are the bomb. 1. The package it's self was treated with much care there was a little dent but it was nothing really I got to opened the box and there was a bag in there and even that was wrapped and I open the bag and every single brush is well rapped every single one which is awesome to me!! and not only that but it came in a pretty big bag which was the brush bag and its nice and strong. 2. It came with a few little cards which one of them explained what this company is about which I really liked and made me even happier with my purchase to know I'm helping such a good company who is cruelty free. 3. Finally the brushes...they smelled good as in no chemicals or anything else. They were clean which is great because they are going on my face and I careally what goes on it. I also tugged each and every single one of the brushes and nothing fell out of it. The you are pretty stong. Also a plus is that each brush has what they are for on them. Plus it comes with a card explain what each brush is for which is great for newbees. Also I received these way earlier than expected.so YAY! over all these brushes are amazing and I really recommend these to all you guys because this company seems like they care about their products and yes I love them very much. Also just a disclaimer yes the box tells you if you give a good review you do get a free gift but i don't think that all these 5 stars really care about a tiny bottle that I don't even know what it's for and could honestly care less if I even receive it. I want to give an honest review and would want the same when I read others...just get them

I have been looking for quite a while for a good set of brushes. My personal favorite type of brushes are kabuki style brushes and wanted a set that I can use for all my daily make up application with very good quality for the price. These met my expectations and more! The packaging is very professional and makes you feel like you've just bought high quality expensive brushes. The box it came in is very appealing straight forward and the brush pouch/stand organizer is well designed. I LOVE how it looks like a cute black little purse for your brushes and when u open it it's very sturdy to stand on its own and the elastic that holds each brush. The brushes itself of course is my favorite part. 😊 They are extremely soft, nice full and thick bristles like a kabuki brush should be. I also like the weight to a brush when handling it as u apply your make up just like these ones do. Lastly, each brush are numbered and labeled for what type of application it's for just like high end brushes have. I highly recommend this set to anyone who is looking for high quality set of brushes for their daily use and more. You don't have to spend so much money to get the well known high end brands. Definitely looking forward to checking out more products from Shany Cosmetics. 😊

I remember when I first started doing makeup. I was 20. I had got my first real job and I decided to treat myself. I bought these same exact brushes. Shany was one of the first brands of makeup I ever used. I was not really a fan of their eyeshadows at the time they were extremely chalky and for my skin tone ...Yikes... But their brushes were 18$ at that time (2015). For this same exact set and they felt almost like my cousins expensive MAC makeup brushes. My cousin does celebrity makeup. When I showed her my brushes she even went and bought herself a few sets. While Im no professional makeup artist. I do like to feel pretty as every woman should. Alot of people assume that if their makeup doesnt come out right that the makeup is either bad or the makeup artist is bad... But sometimes its as simple as getting the right tools. Since then I have tried other makeup brush brands even high end brands and not many can compare to the quality of Shany. I have noticed that their prices have gone up but since receiving them I will say the price increase was with good cause. They clearly have upgraded their packaging slightly. The case that the brushes came in is alot better quality than when I first bought them years ago. And the brushes have a little more weight to them. The bristles or brush portion has not changed at all. Thank god because that was perfect! This is an upgrade I definitely am appreciative of. And is most definitely worth the price. I will continue to buy these as long as they continue to make them with the same amazing quality.

Las compré para regalo de mi esposa, me dice que las brochas de rostro es lo que más le gustaron por qué son muy suaves, y que son sintéticas, por el costo es un buen producto

Very very very bad product

Shany brushes reached on time. I really like their brush quality and the softness in bristles of brushes. And they offer a very beautiful and sturdy brush case for all the brushes. So its a win-win purchase.

These work so amazing. Im so happy with this make up brush set. They are great quality and the brush brissles are really soft. Couldnt be happier with this product.

Se siente una gran diferencia a brochas baratitas, no soy experta en maquillaje pero hacen un mejor trabajo que otras que tenía, son muy bonitas y de buen tamaño, para alguien que está aprendiendo a maquillarse las recomiendo un montón:) dejan un acabado limpio
