Zoeva brushes first impressions and review! Rose gold set and more!

Hi guys, so here I am again...still ''flat packed'' (read I haven't had my baby yet!) and I decided to share with you my thoughts on Zoeva company and the brushes they make.

I recently placed an order for the rose gold set (which is absolutely gorgeous!!!) and a couple of single brushes.

And here are these little beauties!



This is the Rose Gold set that consists of 8 brushes (5 for the face and 3 for the eyes). It also comes with a gorgeous faux leather pouch with inside zipped pocket and a dust bag! 

The brushes are fantastic quality, they feel super soft. I love the handles as they feel nice and sturdy.

I used all of them already and I can honestly say I am in love! 
I use powder brush on daily basis and it's a perfect size and density to pick up enough product yet not make you look cakey. 
My second favourite brush is the foundation brush. It blends the foundation perfectly, doesn't leave any streaks and is perfect for everyday use. 
The angled blush brush is another fantastic brush, soft enough with long bristles to pick up enough product but also blend it out perfectly! I have to say I love this brush more than my Real Techniques one.
The contour brush and concealer brush the set comes with I haven't used very much as I feel they are much too dense for my liking for their purpose. I really like more control over my brushes when it comes to contouring and concealer. 

The three eye brushes the set comes with are fantastic! Soft definer brush and petit crease I use on daily basis to do my everyday eye make up and the wing liner brush I use mainly for my eyebrows with Anastasia's deep brow pomade and it works a treat!



These are the brushes I purchased mainly to compare to the Rose Gold set and see how the quality compares. I got a crease brush no 228 and face paint brush no 109. And yet again they are super soft and feel really nicely built.

The face paint brush is my new favourite contour brush. It reminds me of the Nars Ita brush (even though I haven't had a chance to try this one out)  but the built of it is quite similar in my opinion. I love how my Zoeva brush picks up just enough product and once you apply it to the hollows of your cheeks you might think you put too much on, but because the bristles are slightly longer and so soft it blends out all the product to a perfect finish! My contouring has been so much easier because of this brush! I can't rave about it enough, I absolutely love it!

The crease brush is great as well, it's something in between the ones you get in the rose gold set. 

I already washed all of them once and I have to say they wash very well, dry very quickly and don't change their shape after being washed. All in all I am super happy with my purchase. I think the quality is there, the practicality of brushes you get in the set is great and the price comparing to other brush companies is unbeatable! The company is German but from what I know they ship worldwide and I paid flat fee of £7.50 for postage which I don't think is too much. Obviously it works out better if you place a bigger order. The brushes were packed in a box, nicely wrapped in a tissue paper and lots and lots of bubble wrap so they were safe and snug in there:)
