I was searching for a stippling brush that I wasn't going to have to spend an arm and a leg for. I've always had good experience with ecotools and when I seen this is walmart I couldn't pass it up. Especially because the whole set was only $15! I would have bought just the stippling brush for that price had it been offered seperately. After getting the kit I've grown to like all the brushes. I had just used a sephora gift card and bought an angled blush brush and angled eyeshadow brush and I'm wishing I would have seen this set first. I now use these brushes more and the sephora ones are just sitting...The stippling brush is defenitely my favorite; it's very soft and does just like it's supposed to. I only use it with liquid but did try it once with powder and it did okay for that purpose. The fact that the brushes don't shed is amazing. I've noticed that with all my ecotools brushes, they never shed and I've always preferred them over my more expensive ones. Defenitely worth the money considering a relatively cheap brush usually starts at 15 bucks. With this kit you get 4 brushes and a case, I think that alone sales itself.

Bought these for $34.95AUD and they are worth every penny, even more. I've never really used brushes before, except occasionally a foundation brush, but these brushes, and the stippling brush in particulr, are AMAZING. You only need the tiniest bit of foundation with the stippling brush and it provides great coverage. Its also great for appplying powder.

Definitely will buy again, and will probably purchase some as gifts too. The only possible con I could think of is that $34.95AUD is a lot when they sell for like $15 in the US and our dollar is at parity, so I might try and get them cheaper online, but really, I'd pay double what I paid for these, they're just that good.

OMG! The brushes are super soft! The blush brush is nice and dense! The finishing brush feels like it has the right amount of stiffness and the eyeshadow brush is also dense! I havent used these yet, but I feel like they're gonna wow me like heck! Yes, i'd buy this again and again. I should've bought more for back up in case it falls apart on me!!!!

edit: yes! This applies everything like a dream! Stippling brush stiff and dense enough for my thick BB cream! Better than my MAC SE brushes! The stippling brush is great for blush too! I'm actually buying a super pigmented blush just to see how it's gonna look like! Blush brush is dense and applies my blush without streaks! Eyeshadow brush great for a wash of color! The eyebrow brush nothing special, but I dont have one anyway!

They deserve the full mark. High quality and practical as usual. This time, the design for the brush case is even better. I love Ecotools. It is the brand never fails my expectation. Highly recommend!!!!!!

LOVE! I got this for $15 bucks on amazon and I would have paid more than that for the stippling brush alone! It even feels better than my MAC 187! I am going to try to get a set of these for family members for Christmas and maybe another 2-3 for myself. Absolutely LOVE that stippling brush!

Like other Ecotools brushes, this does not fail. The packaging is perfect for travel and can be filled to the brim with all your other essentials. The fabric case can be thrown into the wash in the hand wash cycle and air dried. Brushes are great besides the typical useless plastic eyelash comb. I wish they would make a wire one! I love all the brushes.

I am in love with Ecotool brushes. Screw Mac and any other expensive brush because these are AMAZING. Perfect brushes for the perfect price. I own just about all of them and I hold them very near and dear to my heart. These puppies are a God send.

I love these brushes :D. There so soft against my sensitive skin. There so fluffy and nice. I use them all the time. And for 15$ for the stiffling brush, blush brush and eye shadow brush it it a great deal.
The only thing I don't like is that I don't even use the brow brush. I wish that was a concealer, or any other brush that that one.

I was looking for a vegan duo fiber brush and this is it!
It is so soft and the perfect amount of full/firmness. I like that it isn't a short handle, giving it a professional look. The other brushes in the set are also great and the bag is pretty. I would highly recommend and would repurchase it.

I hope ecotools will make the finishing brush a part of their permanent line.

I ordered this from Amazon for a little over $20 with free 2day shipping. There was an option for a cheaper price but the delivery was much longer.

I really really like these brushes!! This is a great value for the price. For $16 it's worth it for 4 nice brushes and a very helpful case.

The stippling brush, I'm not sure is used for liquid foundation but it says it's used for finishing powders. This is great use for it. It gives light applications of beauty powders, light applications of powder foundation and finishing mineral powders. SO NICE.

The blush brush is my fave. I've had the other blush brush that came with the 6-piece set and I enjoy that one too. This one applies just the right amount of blush. Not too much, not too little. I build up the right color intensity with this brush. I would much rather have a brush that doesn't pick up a lot and I can build the color I want.

Some people don't seem to like the eyeshadow brush, but I DO!! This is SUCH a versatile brush! You can get into the crease, all over lid color, outer v (what I use it for) AND your brown bone. The only thing I don't think you can really do with this is blending. But omg, it picks up a good amount of product for me and it distributes it evenly. I wish Ecotools would sell this brush and the finishing brush alone! I would totally buy!

The eyebrow/eyelash groomer brush is my least fave. I have no use for it. I don't use those kinds of brushes to groom my brows, I use mascara spoolies. I use it to de-clump my lashes and it works well. But I wish they would have put a different brush in there. Like another eye brush.

The case is nice. It's very "eco" looking lol. I like that it has a lot of space and place to put my brushes. I would definitely take it traveling with me.
The only problem I have is that when the brushes came in the case, I wish they put plastic sleeves over it because the bristles were just scrunching and squished against each other when I got it.
I might wanna get another one before these go off the shelves since these brushes are limited edition! Nice job ecotools with these ones!
And of course with the other eco tools brushes, no shedding and super soft.
