THE FACE SHOP: FACEiT CIRCLE FACE BRUSH

Hello everyone!!

When I went to Manila last year, my sister asked me to buy a certain brush from The Face Shop. I did buy it for her and I remember feeling so bad for myself because I should have bought two of them. I really liked the brush but we don't have The Face Shop store in Iloilo so I was not able to get one for myself. However, my sister recently gave me the brush so I was very happy and now, I would like to show you guys how great this brush is.

FACTS:

FACEiT CIRCLE FACE BRUSH

Brand: The Face Shop

Cost: P525  (around $8)

Made of: 100% Synthetic

Color: handle- graying black ferrule: black

  Design: circle brush with 35 degree slant

SIZE: Approx 6 inches

* When I bought this, it came in a box along with an instructional leaflet that shows you how to use the  brush. Unfortunately, my sister could not find it anymore.

MY THOUGHTS

• It is great for cream based products but can be used for liquid foundation or BB cream as well.
• Buff the product using a circular motion.
• 
  
• After using with a liquid or cream foundation, make sure to wipe and clean the bristles then let it dry for a few minutes before using it with a powder.
•  To set your foundation, gently dab the powder all over your face using this brush.                  
• Because it is slightly slanted and small,  it is  versatile enough to be used for contouring the nose and cheeks as well.
• To contour your nose, use the "pointy' tip of the brush and run along the sides of your nose.
• To contour your cheeks, make a fishy face and sweep bronzer on the hollows of your cheeks. Blend using circular motions afterwards to make it look natural.

What I like:

• light and not bulky 
• great for travelling
• handle is strong and not cheap looking
• does not streak, gives my face a close to flawless finish
• does not bleed
• feels soft and does not irritate my skin
• ferrule is sturdy and strong
• densely packed so grabs the product well
• has a lot of uses ( applying foundation and contouring)
• affordable

What I think others may not like:

• the brush itself is small so it may take time to blend foundation all over your face
• it takes time to dry
• since it is densely packed, it is a little difficult to take off  products (especially cream based) from the bristles

Conclusion:

This brush is indeed small but terrible (amazingly terrible). It is very versatile and delivers great results. I recommend this to anyone who is looking for a great yet affordable foundation brush. Whether you have lots of brushes or you don't have a lot, this brush is a definite must have!
