   I’m not sure if this is the same as the “Still Spa Essentials” brushes, but. I have those ones. I have purchased the travels set with the pouch, blush, eyeshadow blender, eyebrow brushes, and the brow and lash comb thing in addition with the powder brush. They are pretty affordable. I bought the set for $8 CAD and the powder brush for $7 CAD. I Haven’t had any problems with shedding so far. I’ve had the travel set for about 3 months and they’re holding up great! I’ve washed them many times and they still seem the same. The lash and brow comb I had was my only problem. I used it to comb through my lashes after applying mascara to make it less clumpy, mascara would build up in the bristles (as expected), but, when it comes to washing it, it was difficult. I tried using one of the fingernail brushes to get it out, but, it ended up bending the bristles and a couple even broke off. The powder brush is good for dusting your face with a light amounts of powder since it’s not very dense. The handle is what irks me. It’s flat on the front and bottom, but curved on the back. It looks very sleek and expensive but it’s too long to fit into my makeup bag. When I’m travelling, I just subside to not bringing it along and using the travel blush brush to dust finishing powder on my face. The travel blush brush is pretty soft and not very dense as well, and you have a lot of control when putting on a pigmented blush. I have used this for blush, highlighter, and a light amount of bronzer and it has worked well. You can even pinch the base of the bristles to make it even more versatile.

   These brushes have been redesigned. This is a review for the new brushes with the black handle. I found these for 3$ at Walmart, I bought them and I use them a lot. I like these brushes:
   -The eyeshadow blender, similar to the Real Techniques base shadow brush that is not sold individually. I love it for the crease blending, or all over shadow,.
   -I love love love the smudger, I use it for the crease area (smaller than the blender), for concealer, great.
   -The eyeshadow, I use it for eyeshadow or concealer on blemishes, great size not too big.
   -The eyebrow, I also use it as an eyeliner with eyeshadow, fanstastic.
   -The concealer, I use it mainly for lips and to conceal tiny blemishes, it’s similar to the Real Techniques detailer brush (that is not sold individually)

   Others that I don’t use as much:
   -The foundation brush 5$ , I find it too big, not good for areas close to the nose, could use it for foundation or undeyes concealer, but… I don’t use it that much.
   -The blush brush 7$, too big for blush or for me to big even for powder (I like smaller brushes), not very dense maybe for a light dusting of powder or bronzer but I don’t use it.
   -Powder Brush: I don’t have it (and I don’t want it).
   Overall I recommend them, specially if you don’t have makeup brushes go get these ones!! They’re only available at Walmart I believe. They’re synthetic, budget friendly, they don’t shed. I wish I had found these before spending so much money on brushes! You can start by these and buy other expensive brands later.

   Love these brushes. I have the crease blender brush and the multi-use face brush. I bough each at walmart, and the small brush was around $4. The multi use brush was around 7$. Starting with the crease blender, it’s really soft, smooth and it doesnt shed at all. Its kept its shape for a while and it is still nice and fluffy. Its perfect for blending dark colours especially. If you tap the brush once in the shadow, thats enough. 8/10
   For the multi use brush, its super soft and easy to wash. The handle feels very proffesional and its extremely easy to manuver around your face with light pressure. It gets the job done well. I use it for powder products mostly and sometimes with bb cream or foundation. It doesnt shed. 8.5/10

   I wish I never purchased them! I have the powder brush and blush brush and they shed very easily. They aren’t as soft as other brushes and they also smell weird.
   If you’re looking for reasonably priced brushes, go with ecotools or real technique brushes. They’re 1000x better!

   So I bought the Eye & Brow definer brush after a friend recommended it to me. I bought it for 2 something which is a great price! It’s not too small and not too big so it’s basically good for every eyebrow size and it is also angled which is great so if you want to cover a really thin piece of your eyebrow than you can just use the tip of it. Overall I give it a 4/5! And a yes to repurchasing.

   I have 7 of these brushes – Powder, Foundation, Stipple, Blush, Smudge, Cream Shadow and Eye & Brow Definer. I got all of these brushes for under $7 a piece, which in my opinion, is a pretty awesome steal. These are actually very good quality brushes. They’re super soft and I’ve had almost little to no shedding during washes. The only brush that I probably don’t like is the Eye & Brow Definer because of how rough and scratchy it is. But other than that, these brushes are superb in terms of softness, application and price. These are great for someone on a budget who doesn’t wanna splurge on higher end brands. The appearance is pretty nice too. The brushes are really similar (if not identical) to the Bobbi Brown brushes with the black ferrule and wooden lacquered handle.

   I’ll most likely be repurchasing when time comes to replace mine.

   Amazing brushes!! MAC quality! Under $9 for a face brush, under $5 for an eye brush. So soft, so durable. Does its jobs beautifully I have 9 of these brushes and I’ve only experience shedding with the stippling brush. The only problem I have is that the handles are way too long and don’t fit in my makeup bag. That’s only 3 of my single brushes though. I have the stippling brush, the foundation brush, the crease blender & the 6 piece eye brush set. None of then were over $10 before tax the set was 9.97!! Steal! The eye brush set came with mini handles and a portable case with a pocket to the side perfect for putting everyday mascaras in. It comes with a brow and eye definer, a brow and lash brush, an eye smudge brush, a cream eyeshadow brush, and my 2 favorites for blending- the eye sweep brush and the angled eyeshadow brush. These brushes are so soft and when they’re needed to be dense they are but still soft. None of them are scratchy and the eye brushes are the perfect sizes for they’re job. The brow and lash brush is pretty standard but I comb out my clumps of mascara with the lash side. The cream shadow brush is just a standard flat shader, pretty dense. The brow and eye definer isn’t the best for eyes especially the inner corners because it is too thick, I wish it wasn’t because its dense enough to be an eyeliner brush. At first I was skeptical about the smudge brush because they had brushes out to feel before you buy them, it seemed like it was less dense then the crease blender and I wanted to use that as a pencil brush but it turned out to be actually amazing for applying crease colors but the shape of it makes it work beautifully yet not harsh on eyes. The angled eye brush and the eye sweep brush blend like no other, I was expecting myself to like the angled one more because of the shape but they both do an amazing job for blending. The crease blender is PERFECT for applying colour to the crease but the name is misleading because it’s just as good as blending as a flat shader would be. The stippling brush does shed a little but I use it for blush, contouring, highlighting, & foundation, it’s so multifunctional and gets the job done flawlessly but it sheds. The foundation brug was my first brush not only from this brand it was my first brush ever; the brush leaves your foundation cakey and streaky so I was about to throw it out cause I got a foundation brush from a random brand that got the job done. But I blended my under eye concealer with this and holy crap!! It’s amazing for that’s blends concealer like no other and leaves it looking flawless in no time. Overall this brand has high end quality, soft brushes. People need to try more than the stippling brush. Bottom line, I recommend this brand for brushes 100%

   I got this brush on a whim and it sheds. SHEDS SHEDS SHEDS. It’s not terrible where chunks of the brush come out. It just leaves one or two strands that you have to use your fingers to get off completely ruining the blending aspect of this tool. Avoid this one if you can.

   I bought Spa Resource’s Stippling Brush to try out with my foundation. It was $7 at Wal-Mart. It actually does the job pretty well, despite a bit of shedding at times. I bought Elf’s Studio stippling brush to compare and found that I preferred the large size of the Spa Resource one. I’ll eventually buy a better quality stippling brush, but this one does the job for now.

    Ugh. How do I even begin this review? I purchased the travel set a month ago. My main issue is with the blush brush, which sheds an awful lot. I am truly disappointed with this purchase, and although I don’t have issues with the rest of the brushes (w/c i hardly use anyway), i feel like i should have spent my money on another brand. The blush brush feels scratchy and stringy and itchy on the face. The product display was soft and seemed okay when i tried it, but after a couple of uses and washes, it became all stringy. Please do yourselves a favor and get something else!
