After ogling over countless Instagram snaps of these beautiful brushes I decided to bite the bullet and place an order for myself ! Zoeva is a German retailer who sell not only brushes but cosmetics too (these I have yet to try , however their palettes look amazing !)
All together I purchased 7 brushes ( 4 face and 3 eye) .The brushes were incredibly packaged , each of them wrapped in cellophane in a rather handy zip lock bag - perfect for carting around dirty brushes or for travel use in general. I was also taken back by the company's delivery service , although the shipping costs are quite high as the products are shipped from Germany , my delivery came after only 2 working days -gold stars all round !
Silk Finish Face Brush (9.50 EUR / £8.20)
This is by far my favorite pick of the bunch ! This brush really does provide a "silky" flawless finish and could be compared to the real techniques flawless face brush . It is a little less dense with a more rounded top which allows foundation to blend effortlessly without being dragged across the skin . At £8.20 I feel that this brush is more than worth its weight in gold !
104 - Buffer Brush (9.50EUR /£8.20)
I find this brush great for applying mineral foundations and setting powders. The bristles are packed to the perfect density which allows you to pick up just the perfect amount of product - I feel that this provides a finish similar to that of a mac 187 -without the heavy price tag!
110 - Face Shape Brush (8.20 EUR /£6.99)
I would say that I was slightly disappointed in this brush . When ordering, the pictures on the Zoeva site gave the impression that it was a slightly smaller version of the "silk finish " brush , however when it arrived it was just a tad bigger than the concealer brush . The bristles are also extremely densely packed - this means effortless contouring is pretty tricky ! .Although this brush is of high quality like the others , I feel that Zoeva could perhaps make the dimensions of the brush a little clearer on their site .
142- Concealer Buffer (6.80 EUR / £5.80)
This brush is like no other ! It is packed to the perfect density and the dome is just the right size for buffing product into the under eye area and around the nose . I also find this handy for applying primer to the eyelids .
223- Petite Crease Brush (5.80 EUR/ £4.90)
This brush is also densely packed ( much like most of Zoevas range) I feel that it would be great for carrying out precise crease work / cut creases . I also feel that it's density allows it to function nicely as a pencil brush too . Overall I find this a great multipurpose brush - perfect for smokey eyes!
234 -Smokey Shader (5.80 EUR/ £4.90)
Looks familiar eh ? This brush is a perfect dupe for Macs 210 brush . It's natural hair allows you to pick up and pack on just the right amount of product to the lids , absolute bargain !
317- Detail liner brush (5.20 EUR / £4.40)
Brows and Cat eyes all the way ! This brush is great for filling brows as its fine strokes imitate the dimensions of brow hair . It's also works great for applying gel liner to the lids and under eye area as its shape makes for great precision!
Overall I have had a great experience shopping with Zoeva , their products are fantastic , their packaging was a cut above the rest and their delivery service was super speedy ! I would definitely recommend these brushes and already have my eye on a few more - sneaky , sneaky !
Lots of love LBB xx
