e.l.f. Cosmetics Eyeshadow "C" Brush

There`s nothing better than smoothing on a brand new eye-shadow with a great brush and this is a shape I didnt have in my collection,and it looked to be an essential for the look I was trying out. I filled my Amazon basket with several brushes and finaly weeded the lis down to just this and 1 blending brush, at a middle price range.This is a nicely put together brush with smooth handle and snag-free ferrule. The bristles are soft enough and there are plenty of them, but I didn`t get on with it that well. I`m sure we all try to be subtle with our eye-shadows and blend the shades together, but this brush didn`t pick up as much colour as I wanted, and it was bigger on my eyelid than I needed to get accurate placement. I found it also didn`t release the colour very well, but maybe that was my technique. (To get colour where I wanted it I had to pat it on gently, with the bristles facing downwards towards my lashes, and this is where the problem was with releasing colour. It looked as if there was plenty on the brush, eventually, after many more sweeps than my other brushes would need) as well. My eyelids are old and a bit crepey, but I had expected a bit more of a wow for the price. I would reccommend it for younger eyes, as there`s nothing wrong with it. It is as soft as they say, but it is just not for me. I shall pass it on in the family to someone with much more beautiful eyes.

Good product
