GOSH COPENHAGEN MAKEUP BRUSHES #TBT REVEIW

It seems an age ago that I wrote this review on some of the GOSH Make-up brushes

in fact it goes back to March 2016 and over 4 years on I am still using all of these

brushes and they're still in excellent condition.

The KABUKI brush has been used daily and not a hair has been shed, so cost

per use on this brush has been outstanding.

The advice my tutor gave me at beauty college all those years back was invaluable

and I pass the same advice onto you, if you already haven't invested in good make-up brushes, these without doubt all stood the test of time and I would highly

recommend them today as I did 4 years ago.

GOSH is now available from Edgars/Foschini/Zando

P.S.I have updated the prices where possible

GOSHCOPENHAGEN MAKEUP BRUSHES

When I was at college in the UK doing my 3 years of beauty training, the practical lessons in make up application were everyone's favourite. It was instilled into us to always buy the best make up brushes that you can afford at the time, as they are your tools of your trade.Back in the day synthetic bristle brushes were overlooked in preference to natural bristle brushes, but how the times have changed. The main switch from natural to synthetic has arisen due to the animal cruelty concerns and the advances in the technology of man made bristles.Today we have a wider variety of brushes both natural and synthetic in every shape and size, to do every make up application possible.

These makeup brushes from the Danish brand GOSHCOPENHAGEN couldn't have arrived at a better time, as my current ones have seen better application days.

 GOSHCOPEHAGEN have introduce a new line of brushes that are now composed of 100% synthetic and man-made hair.

I have always invested in quality make up brushes, so when I felt the softness and the quality of these long handled birch wood beauties I was immediately impressed. 

They also passed my initial "bristle pull" test with flying colours (no bristles came out), but the true test would be in the pick up of the colour on the brush, the ease of application, along with the comfort in the hand.

I was lucky to receive the following:

Blusher Brush 

Medium sized brush for powder blush application

 R170

Foundation Brush 

Perfect for seamless liquid foundation application 
R240

Powder Brush 
Great for all over face and boys powder application 

R240
R273

Kabuki Brush
A short handled brush which can be used for applying bronzer, blusher 
or setting powder
R240
R258

The only brush that I haven't yet put to the test has been the foundation brush, but the other three brushes have been an absolute pleasure to use, as they not only feel incredibly soft on the skin, but the colour pick up is good and importantly for me they are well balanced and comfortable in my hand all making for an easy application.
All this comes at very reasonable price points considering the quality, so if you are in the market for a new brush or 4 then I suggest you check out these out.

GOSHCOPENHAGEN KABUKI BRUSH

My favourite has to be the multi purpose Kabuki brush, as I have been using one for
 many years and this has very easily replaced my trusted and faithful old Kabuki.

As I am sure you are all aware it is important to care for any quality brush and in turn it will give you many years of use. 
It's necessary to wash your brushes every couple of weeks in warm water and with a 

non -detergent soap and then let them dry naturally.

 I haven't yet cleaned my brushes and that will be the next test, but I have a feeling that there will be no problems, I will however give you feedback.

Available from selected Edgars countrywide.

GOSH VELVET TOUCH EYELINER {REVIEW}

There are several products that I don't generally write too many reviews on and one of those are an eye pencil or eyeliner, unless I come across one that really impresses me.
I find these products to be very much the same and to be honest I can't get too excited about them.

I was recently sent from GOSHCOPENHAGEN a Black Velvet Touch Eyeliner that just happens to be worthy of me writing a glowing review, as I am super impressed.
I hate when a product name is misleading and I must admit my eyes went sideways when I read the words Velvet Touch, as this in my mind conjures up a very soft velvety smooth eyeliner
and guess what, it's exactly that.

As a mature blogger I am always very aware of using gentle, non dragging products around the delicate eye area, so I'm not making my crepey eyelids any worse.

The softness makes this eyeliner not only a pleasure to apply, as it glides easily onto the skin, it stays and it's easy to work with and to correct any shaky application errors - is a breeze. 

The eyeliner is waterproof, I found it easy to remove though and fragrance free.
No doubt the softness is due to the inclusion of Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil, however I feel this may result in the eyeliner finishing pretty quickly, but I will give you feedback.


Internationally there are a great selection of colours available and having only used the black I cannot comment on the colour intensity or pigment of the other shades, 
the black though seriously impressed 
moi!

As I am sure you are all aware it is important to care for any quality brush and in turn it will give you many years of use. It's necessary to wash your brushes every 2-4 weeks in warm water and with a 

non -detergent soap and then let them dry naturally.
