Crown Brush Review and Coastal Scents Brush Review

 

Hey hope everyone is good and happy!
I finally got my Crown Brush Set and I had my Coastal Scents Brush Set from about April of this year, so its time to review both of them. I still don't have ma camera so I will being using internet pictures of the brushes I own.

Crown Brush Deluxe Set- 14 Piece Brush Set from www.crownbrush.com
It came in a cool black leather looking brush roll and it was well packaged. I liked most of the brushes. I washed them with anti-bacterial dish washing liquid and air dried them in my brush guards so they would keep the sleek shape they had when they came.

This last 3 brushes to the right I was not pleased with at all and I was quite surprised about this. They are, C104 Angle Brush, C108 Flat Bronzer and the C106 Pointed Dome.They shed easily before usage and they smell funny, even after being washed. The 2nd to last brush, smelled so horrible when wet, worse than a dirty dog, I could not get over the smell. When dried it did not smell that badly, but it still smelled. I was very eager to use the 2nd to last brush which is the C108 Flat Bronzer, but the smell makes me very uncomfortable. I even when back and washed this brush with shampoo and it still did not bring it to a clean scent :( Outside of the 3 brushes, this set is a total keeper. The handles feel good in my hands and the other brushes are very effective in carrying out the specific functions.

The Brush Guards I mentioned I bought from www.coastalscents.com.

What I like about the guards is they allow my brushes to last longer by helping them to stand up and dry, so the water runs down in to the glass (check the pic below). When u allow your brush to dry flat or laying down, the water can get into the metal area and eat away at the glue that bounds the brush hairs together. In no time, you will need more brushes if you continue to dry your brushes that way. So I believe the brush guards save my pockets and my brushes quality by helping to keep their physique :)
 

 Coastal Scents 7 Piece Synthetic Travel Brush Set
I LOVE THESE BRUSHES!!! (No I'm not being paid to say this, but. I wish I was, lol) These brushes are pretty small, after all they are travel size brushes so you can't expect them to be regular size. They come in this little black pouch with an additional section for you to drop like a small compact or any other small make up necessities u may need, like lip gloss or a small eye shadow or 2. I washed them before I used them also and used my brush guards when drying them also. They look great, they smell great, I honestly haven't had any shedding, they feel EXTREMELY SOFT!!! I have never felt anything this soft on my skin ever. Honestly, I enjoy using these brushes on a day to day basis. At first I had to get used to the size, but, I quickly got over that.

I am overall a happy customer with the 2 brush sets I own :)
