I needed these like a hole in the head but welcome to my Zoeva brush
family the Rose Golden Vol. 2 eye set! I ordered these just before Christmas
when I was doing my Makeup Geek order because obviously I needed new eye
brushes to go with it and just look how pretty they are! Hard to resist or
what?
The set includes twelve eye brushes in a limited edition (although
still available) nude and rose gold handled set. Zoeva do not test any of their
products on animals and this brush set is made up of brushes with both natural
and synthetic bristles. As with all their other sets, the brushes are super
soft and wash really well! So, onto the brushes!
142 Concealer Buffer
First up, this is actually the third copy I now have of this brush (also
in the Rose Gold Set and Bamboo Vol. 2 set I have!) and I don’t like it so I
sold it on Ebay! I found with the others it just moved my concealer round and I
ended up with no coverage and I just prefer using my fingers to pat it in! If
you have any other uses for this brush do let me know as I have two sitting
unloved in my brush pot!
325 Luxe Brow Light
I usually use a much smaller and more flexible brush to apply highlight
to my brow but I have been enjoying using this as it has such a light touch! It’s
a bit too big to use in the inner corner of my eye though!
227 Luxe Soft Definer
I’m always happy to have another blending brush in my life and this one
does a great job!
322 Brow Line
I usually use a Zoeva Wing Liner brush to do my brows if I’m using powder
or something like ABH Dipbrow Pomade and from pictures I had seen of this before
I got it I thought it was going to be as thin as the wing liner but shorter. It’s
actually a lot thicker than I thought but still works really well at giving a
precise line and doesn’t look too overdone so I’m really happy with it!
232 Luxe Classic Shader
Another standard brush to pack on shadow with! I actually prefer the
Real Techniques base shadow brush when I’m using matte shadows all over as
these Zoeva brushes can be a lot stiffer and I can sometimes go overboard but
they are great when using glitters as they really press it on!
235 Contour Shade
I was really hoping this would be like the Real Techniques angled
shadow brush as it’s my favourite for blending but it’s not as thick and fluffy
so I haven’t been using this as often as I would have liked!
231 Luxe Petite Crease Brush
This is another one of my favourite brushes and I use my original Zoeva
Rose Golden version every day when putting a darker eyeshadow shade through my
crease and in my outer corner! I forgot how stiff it was when I first got it
but I like to wash it a few times to separate the bristles a bit so it’s softer
for me to use!
221 Luxe Soft Crease Brush and 228 Crease Brush
These are two lovely tapered fluffy brushes great for blending or adding
a transition shade through the crease!
230 Luxe Pencil
I have wanted one of these brushes for the longest time! This is great
when doing a smoky eye and adding a little shadow on the bottom lash line!
238 Luxe Precise Shader
This reaches places my Luxe Brow Light brush doesn’t so is great for
inner corner highlight!
310 Spot Liner
This brush is super small but not small enough for my hooded lids! I tried
it with gel eyeliner and it was just a little too thick for me but if you don’t
have hooded lids or can get away with thicker eyeliner then I’m sure it would
be great! Or if you have more makeup skills ha!
Overall, this is a great set if like me you are looking to expand your
eye brush collection! I was tempted by the mixed eye and face set but I’m
really happy with the face brushes I have so was glad to expand my eye
collection! It’s a totally unnecessary set if you’re not into eye makeup but
even though I’m not that experimental with it, I do wear eyeshadow every day! It’s
such a luxurious set from the colour scheme to the detailing on the zip and I’m
glad to have it in my collection!
I got mine from the BeautyBay website for £56.95! If you like this post you might like my favourite brushes post here or my review of the Zoeva Bamboo Vol. 2 set here! Have you got this or any other Zoeva brush sets?
