The brushes are really great so far. I haven't used them all yet...been on and off with this wicked cold/allergy/sinus/kicking my butt thing.
But I have been using the the concealer brush a lot actually,..I love it! Iit really makes a big difference....goes on smoother, doesn't settle into creases. I also really love the shadow brush. It's a perfect all around brush- for the lid, shading and blending. It has a "light" touch yet seems to pick up more of the powder so there isn't that brush fall out. I am very pleased! I may have to purchase the crease brush one day. One thing that surprised me overall was how SHORT the handles are! Really short. They are almost travel sized. But the brush heads are full size.
I was VERY surprised when I initially saw them. Oh and each brush came in it's own box and velvet pouch, so you can easily re-gift any of them

Now for the Kaleidoscope.

The first shade is a beautiful bronze metallic w/ a hint of rose. (hard to describe...but I see a bit of pink in certain light)
The 2nd shade is described as a gilded saffron and that's pretty accurate.. Its a beautiful color but one that is too "apricot" for me.
I am in mad love with the 3rd color. They are describing it as a Patina Brass, but it is more like an shimmery olive w/ flecks of gold. Def more on the greenish side.
The last shade, the purple...is gorgeous too. It's like a blackened eggplant. It looks super sparkly in the palette but goes on almost matte/satin.
It really is a beautiful kaleidoscope and an INSANE Gwp!!!!!
Le Metier added new products to the vault the other day. ) Some really fantastic groupings.
This one is tempting me..BIG TIME. And it comes w/ a FREE eye cream ($175 value) plus the kaleidoscope! (which I would gift...NOTE: The kaleidoscope does NOT come in a box though. Just bubble wrap.)
Yes, I have a problem. But this company/brand is really SO SPECIAL!
I'm glad you LOVE your box!
That set has been tempting me too, especially with the eye kaleidoscope!
