Not Sponsored: Hey Guys! I treated myself this past Christmas to several sets of Luxie Beauty makeup brushes. I can't believe it's almost Christmas again and there are only 96 more days until Halloween! Unbelievable. I've had a chance to use all of these and wanted to share my thoughts with you. I really love them. Luxie makeup brushes are both vegan & cruelty free. I like the fact they are are sturdy, the bristles are super soft, they dry overnight and so far they've held up really well. No bristle is out of place. What I super love, is that they are labeled! Luxie tells you on the handle exactly what that brush is called, so in turn it pretty much tells you what it is used for. When I started my blog back in 2012, I didn't realize how serious I was going to get into makeup. I probably only had 5 makeup brushes at the time. HaHaHa Well during this time, I have learned that having the right makeup brushes really makes a difference in your makeup application. I use my Beautyblender a lot for foundation, concealer, blush and contour but sometimes (depending on the formula from a brand) I need to use a makeup brush. I also still use my BlendSMART2 rotating makeup brush (review
here). I'm finding with makeup, one tool doesn't fit all. I purchased these makeup brush SETS, because they were so much more economical then buying them individually. But what's great about Luxie is you can purchase most of these individually. If you know you're only going to use certain brushes or know exactly what you need, than buying individually will work out better for you. I purchased these sets from Nordstrom. The only negative that I would give is that even though all the handles to these makeup brushes are the same color they vary in darkness & lightness. I hope you can pick that up in my pictures. I just wish that was more consistent. But other than that, they are absolutely superb! Another thing I felt was helpful, was Luxie has videos on YouTube featuring all of these brushes and their uses. In the future, I may put together a video outlining my most used and favorite Luxie makeup brushes. I condensed the uses for each makeup brush below. I hope this helps you if you're thinking about purchasing these.
