So today i am going to be talking about the Lauren Luke Brushes
So I decided to order these brushes to try
out because I read great reviews on them, AND they had a very friendly
price tag,
£33.75 for 8.
… For all you international makeup fans,
don’t worry! International shipping is only £3+ for Lauren Luke brushes I
think! Really affordable wherever you are in the world =D
So Here are the Brushes
Now, getting down to business, the Lauren Luke brushes are of really
nice quality, and especially if you’re thinking of getting into makeup
more seriously For Example not just apply one eyeshadow and kohl eyeliner like I
used to, then this is the perfect starter set! It has all the
essentials from face to eyes and is really affordable.
Out of the 8 brushes, 5 are made from goat hair 3 are made from
synthetic.
I am not picky when it comes to what type of brush hairs I
use, but my experience so far with synthetic brushes is that it doesn’t
pick up pigment as well
The first up! The Large Powder Brush, made of synthetic hair. It is
huge! Fills up my entire cheek. This is good for finishing powder and
for those with dry skin like me who rarely set foundation with powder,
you get a really nice and big blush brush . I kid you not!
Does make application really easy! I love those brushes that you can just slap on to your face without worrying whether it is properly blended. With this brush, it gives a nice sheer blush!

The Flat Contour Brush is made of goat hair and is great for bronzer, however, make sure you dust off the excess bronzer, if not it may be a little difficult to blend out. The last time I forgot to dust off the excess bronzer, I had a rather harsh line that took me awhile to blend out, not pretty. Other that that, this is a nice brush! It’s an almost perfect dupe of the MAC109 brush, fraction of the cost, It is a little lense dense that the MAC109, but negligibly so.
The Foundation Brush! Synthetic hair, and one of my favorite brushes
I love the design,
it allows for precise application around my
nose area and gives a lovely flawless finish. I love the gradient hairs
on the brush, I find it so aesthetically pleasing. I’m a sucker for
those things.. Like the sigma Mr and Mrs bunny collection! Not a known
dupe for any higher end brush.
The Tapered Blending Brush
I love for blending colors between my crease
and brow bone!
It’s goat hair and I love that it is soft and fluffy,
but it is too large for my almost nonexistent crease.
Despite that, it is wonderful for blending out the colors to give it
more depth. While it is great, I do wish it was a little bit denser as
sometimes it is a little too soft.
The Eyeshadow Blending Brush is probably the one I use the most often!
Made of goat hair, it’s the perfect size for my crease and
allows me to work the product into the outer corners of my eyes with
precision,
really bringing the depth of the eye shadow out! Absolutely
love it! It i a dupe for the MAC217 brush, but slightly longer
The Flat Eyeshadow Brush is wonderful at picking up pigment
It is made of goat
hair,
I use this all the time, it’s a brilliant dupe for the MAC239,
once again at a fraction of the cost. Just might purchase another!
One of the most popular Lauren Luke brushes is the Pencil Brush!
Made of
goat hair, it’s a dupe for the MAC219 brush,
very slightly less dense
and firm. If you like your brushes firmer and denser, stick to the
MAC219! If not, this is probably just as good, and kinder to your
pocket!
Lastly, the Angled Eyeliner Brush! Made of synthetic hair
it is a dupe
for the MAC263 brush!
So all in all I really love this brush
set and do recommend it to everyone, whether you are a professional
makeup artist or beginning!
You can never have too many brushes right Hope this helped in your decision of which brush set to get!
