Sedona Lace Pink Brush Set - Eye Brushes

Pink Brushes Continued!!

Today's post is a continuation of my review on Sedona Lace's 12 piece professional brush set in pink! Click here to read about the face brushes if you havent already! :D I will be going through the rest of the brushes (all the eye brushes) in this post today :) enjoy!


Large Shader Brush 941
This flat shaped brush is ideal for applying eye shadow primer and creme formulas. Could also be used for concealers in precise areas. Natural bristles.

This is one of my absolute favourites from this brush set! it is much larger than a normal eyeshadow brush (comparison below) and is perfect for applying an all over lid color. i use this daily to pat on a neutral shade all over my lids and then use the side of the brush to blend out. love it!!


Eye Shading Brush 305
This brush has a rounded and tapered top and a perfect size for applying and blending an all over shadow. Packs color into the lip and also blends for a soft result.

This brush is also very good for patting on colors as it picks up eyeshadow well and deposits them with little fall out. i like to use this to apply outer corner shades, add a pop of color in the middle of my lids, as well as to blend out the colors.

Medium Angled Shading Brush 407
This angled shape, yet flat with natural bristles brush, is best used underneath the eyebrow and inner corners of the eyes. Also great use for blending shadows outwards.


This brush is similar to the eye shading brush, but its angled shape allows for easier blending. I like using this to apply my inner corner highlight shades because the shape and size of the brush is perfect to work around the tear duct. This is also a great brush for contouring the nose!!

Tapered Blending Brush 863
 This brush has a rounded and tapered top and a perfect size for applying and blending an all over shadow. Packs color into the lip and also blends for a soft result.



This fluffy blending brush allows you to blend colors so that they fade into one another. The brush head is slightly bigger than i would like (since i have a small eyelid area) but would be great for those who have bigger eyelids than me (most of you lol). This brush can also be used to blend in concealer although i prefer using my fingers to pat it in. I had slight shedding issues with this during the first wash, but it seems to be much better now :)



Pencil Brush 904
This brush is name of natural bristles and is perfect for smudging out eye liner. Great for applying color in the crease and outer corner of the eye.This brush can easily create a gorgeous 'smokey eye' look.

I love this brush! it is great for applying colors into the crease area very precisely and is small enough for me to use even with my small eyelid area! :D plus, i also love using this to apply shadow to my lower lashline because it gives a nice soft smoky effect. The only downside to this brush is that, like the large angled contour brush (with white bristles), it has a smell when it is wet. I have been notified by SedonaLace that this is due to the fact that these two brushes are made from high quality goat hair. So now we know :)


Small Angled Brush 561
This stiff natural bristled brush is angled to help create the perfect eye brow when filling in. This is an essential brush when applying gel or creme eyeliner.

Since this brush is slightly larger than my other angled liner brushes, I like using this brush to fill my eyebrows in (with a brow powder/eyeshadow) and it does a very good job! You could also use this to line your eyes with a gel liner but i prefer the eyeliner brush for that.


Eyeliner Brush 772
This extra fine brush with natural bristles helps give a precise line when applying liner.

This brush is my go-to brush for appying gel liners! It allows for an easy and smooth application and is great for winging out your liners! However, if you are going for a super thin liner, this brush might be slightly too big to give you the definition you want. Rather, i believe this brush is better suited for normal to thicker applications of liner. You could also use this brush for coloring in your lips :)

-------------------------------------------

Comparison pictures:

Sedona lace vs ELF angled brush

Sedona Lace vs ELF angled brush
As you can tell, the sedona lace brush is larger in width and slightly taller in height in comparison to ELF's angled brush. because of this, i like to use my sedona lace brush to fill in my brows and the ELF brush for gel liners.

Sedona lace vs Ecotools angled shading brush

Sedona Lace vs Ecotools

Sedona Lace vs Ecotools angled shading brush
As you can see, the ecotools brush is definitely alot more fluffy and thicker therefore making it more suitable as a blending brush to blend out harsh edges. Sedona Lace's brush is more slim and angled making it more suitable to reach into the inner corners of your eyes.


The rest of the brushes are quite similar to my other brushes from other brands so i will not be posting a comparison.

----------------------------------------------------

Overall thoughts on face brushes - 4/5
From the brushes i reviewed today, my favourites are ... all of them! if i am applying eyeshadow for a night out, a date or a special ocassion, i will use all these brushes to create my look. 

for my everyday makeup, i mainly use the large shader brush to apply an all over shadow, the pencil brush to apply a crease color, the tapered blending brush to blend and the eyeliner brush to apply my gel liner. Overall, definitely love all of these brushes and would recommend them all :)

The only point i took off here was due to slight shedding from the tapered blending brush & a weird smell that appears from the large angle contour brush when it is wet.. although i have been notified that this was due to the usage of high quality goat hair :)

Pros:
- very worthwhile to purchase - $50 for 12 brushes & brushroll!
- brushroll is included and is very good quality
- high quality brushes
- includes a nice variety of brushes
- brushes are not scratchy on face

Cons:
- only available online through SedonaLace's website
- slight shedding with powder brush
- weird smell when large angle contour brush is wet

Overall thoughts on brush set - 4.5/5
This brush set is really worth your money as it comes with both 12 brushes and a brush roll! the brushes are definitely high quality brushes and are perfect if you are just starting your makeup collection because it comes with all the brushes you'll need to do your makeup :) overall, i love my brush set and would definitely highly recommend this. (oh, and if you dont like pink. they also have this set in black!)

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to
say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it
better. Youve got an awful lot of text for
only having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could
space it out better?
