E.L.F. Studio Brushes (Review)

Pin It
One of the only reasons i even put an order in on E.L.F. was because i needed new brushes and i didn't ave a lot of money to spend on them. Before i got these i've never had an e.l.f. brush. I like 'em a lot. I also got a lot of other stuff that you can all see in the e.l.f. haul
 This haul is going to be organized a little differently. I'm going to do each brush individually because each had different info to it.
 Contour Brush
Company Description:This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-The domed bristles pick up a lot of color and deposit it onto the eyelid for extra definition
-Adds depth close to the lash line and in the corner of the eye
-Use to sweep colors along the lash lines for concentrated color
*Vegan Friendly


What I Think: I really like this brush a lot. It fits perfectly into the crease and works really well to use pigments wet. I'd say its pretty soft and very comfortable to use. I didn't notice any hairs fall out when i washed it. I like it and i want another one.

Small Precision Brush
Company Description: This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-Creates thin lines and precise coverage
-Applies color evenly for small targeted areas.
-Use to apply concealer, smooth on lip color, or line eyes
*Vegan Friendly 


What I Think: I really love this brush for the inner corner. I often use it to line my lower lash line as well. It's still but not so still that it's stabbing your eyes. I really like it because it's soft and gets into those detailed areas that i can't reach with a regular shader brush.

Eyeshadow C Brush
Company Description:This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-Creates the perfect smokey eye
-The medium size brush gives more control for more specific blending needs
-Use with any powder eyeshadow product for color blending
*Vegan Friendly 

What I Think: I don't use this brush a lot because it's a bit to big for my liking. It's good for doing a simple color smoky eye. It does make it easy to separate three different colors to create that look. I really like that way it fits into the crease. Very soft, but wasn't really the same after i washed it.

 Angled Contour Brush
Company Description:This new antibacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. Studio brush!
The unique angle and width of this brush creates mistake-proof eye color contouring so you can apply color with accuracy and comfort.
Use this brush to apply base eyeshadow and crease eyeshadow for precise product application.

What I Think: I don't use this brush much either. It's really thick and soft. I did loose one hair it in when i washed it.I don't think i use an even or light enough color for this brush to be super useful to me. But it's deliciously soft. I love to touch it.


Small Angled Brush
Company Description:This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-Creates precise color application
-Creates even, thin and straight lines every time
-Use to apply lip color, eyebrow color, or to line eyes
*Vegan Friendly

What I Think: I reeeallllyyy like this brush. It's in the top favorites of of these. For an angle brush its very soft while maintaining the stiffness that it needs to have to line along the lower lash line. It's small enough to be pretty precise and its big enough so that you don't have to go back for more color every other second. I want another one.
Price: $3.00 at Eyes Lips Face .Com

Worth it?:Yes, yes, yes. all these brushes are regularly $3.00 each online. I got each of them half off so i was more excited. these brushes are fantastic for the value. Personally, i think it's a tad ridiculous to spend over $17 on a brush, though i do recognize the quality different. But for me, just using my makeup on myself at home ,and not on snarky people wondering why i'm not using all MAC, these are the top of the pop. They're all very soft, wash well, and don't poke my eyes.

Will I Buy It Again?:Yes. I love these all, and i plan to buy more in the future as doubles for light and dark colors.
