Review + Kit Essential | ZOEVA Complete Eye Set

Some of you may remember that way back in March, the ZOEVA Rose Golden Complete Eye Set featured in My 20th Birthday Presents post. Well I have now had more than enough to time to test these brushes out and they have become both a personal and professional essential!
This 12 piece set will leave a £56.95 shaped hole in your purse, which works out at each brush costing you less than a fiver. In comparison to the price of higher end lines; this set is a true bargain and with one purchase you have all the brushes needed to create most looks.

The affordable price also doesn't mean you have to skimp on quality. They are amazingly soft, blend product flawlessly into the skin and, after a fair few washes by yours truly, they still feel brand new. Not to mention, they also look beautiful and far more expensive then they really are; what’s not to love? I now use these on a regular basis, either on myself or on clients as part of my kit.

As there are 12 brushes, I don't want to bore you all by going through every single one, instead I’ve picked out four that have been my favourite to work with.

1.  142 / Concealer Buffer

As a girl who can not leave home without her concealer, my attention was naturally drawn to this brush straight away. It has a dense dome shape and is perfect for blending concealer under the eyes, around the nose or over spots. The softness and density of the brush ensures that the concealer is blended flawlessly into the skin, without lifting away the product and removing the coverage. 

2.  228 / Luxe Crease


I doubt there is a makeup lover out there who does not own or heard every makeup artist, blogger and YouTuber using the cult MAC 217 blending brush. Well this Luxe Crease is my affordable alternative and, dare I say, personal preference. The bristles are amazingly soft and blend shadow with ease. I love the seamless transition of colour that this brush leaves behind and I have recently been preferring the texture and effect over my MAC 217.

3.  315 / Fine Liner


I'm sure we are all familiar with that constant battle to perfect our winged liner. Whether working with gel, liquid or shadow; creating a flawless feline flick always takes a silent pep talk, hold of breath and intense 10 minutes of concentration (or is that just me?). 

This brush, whilst not making winged liner a complete breeze, does make the task a lot easier. The angled head allows you to draw the line as close to your lashes as possible and the extremely fine, dense tip keeps the line immaculately precise. Whilst I can't promise that this brush will rid you once and for all of those dreaded liner sweats; I can promise that the task will seem far less daunting.

4.  317 / Wing Liner

In 2015 eyebrows became a national, if not international, obsession. I think we can all admit to being guilty of joining the quest to discover the products and tools that will help you create a pair of Cara D power brows of your very own. This brush has been my answer to just that. The incredibly fine, angled edge allows you to mimic the appearance of small hairs, so that whether you are filling in with powder or gel, the result is a full, natural and precise arch.  

These are my four favourites of the set, but I really have found a use for and love for all of the brushes. They are affordable yet perform amazingly well and I would recommend anyone who is looking for a new set of brushes to give these a go. Let me know what you think if you've tried them and your favourite brushes!
