My First Zoeva Brushes

I've heard a lot about Zoeva all over the bloggersphere and I thought it was about time I tried something! There is a lot of choice out there when it comes to Zoeva brushes, so it's quite hard to narrow it down. The brush sets are really good value for money, but I didn't have a lot of spare cash, so I opted for two single brushes.

I've never tried a concealer brush and I've been looking to try one for a while. So when I spotted the 142 Concealer and Buffing Brush, it went straight in my basket. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this has revolutionised my concealer application. I've been using it to do pinpoint concealing and conceal red patches around my nose. It makes the finish really flawless! I've also been using it my liquid concealers under my eyes and it's amazing for blending. The brush is really soft but still quite dense, so it works without dragging or irritating the eyes.

Next in my basket was the 110 Face Shape Brush. Zoeva say that this is the perfect brush for precise and detailed contouring. I've been using this with Illamasqua's Hollow, which is a cream product and it works beautifully. Again this is a dense brush which makes light work of applying and blending contouring products. For me this is probably a little too small for contouring, I don't do very detailed contouring, so I prefer a slightly bigger brush! I imagine this is perfect for Kim Kardashian style contouring though!

Zoeva brushes come in a little pouch, which makes a great carry case if you want to put them in your handbag! They also are made with Vegan friendly taklon bristles, which is very important! I picked my brushes from Beauty Bay (here), but there are a couple more UK sellers if you're interested in starting a collection!
