My quest for growing my makeup brush collection is
ongoing and recently I got to try out the L.A.B² Strokes Of Genius Eye Brush Set*. L.A.B² is an American brand which aims to bring
high quality brushes at a fraction of the price of the competition. Their
philosophy is to have Beauty Without Compromise
and promise to always give Luxe For Less.
The brushes come in neon orange and black packaging which stands out and is
very eye catching. You can see the brushes through the plastic display sleeve
which is always nice so you can see before you buy. On the back is a lot of useful
information including a cut out guide on how best to use each brush.
In the set you get 5
essential brushes to create anything from a simple natural look to a dramatic
smoky eye. All their brushes have rubberized handles which I find makes the
brush comfortable to hold and easy to guide. Also each brush has its usage
printed on the brush handle which is very handy.
Eyeshadow Brush – “Distributes colour evenly onto the lids,
crease and brow bone.” I can 100% agree with their description of this
brush, it’s the perfect shadow brush to dust a single shade all over the lid
and bonus it’s not at all scratchy!
Crease Brush – “Accentuates the crease and blends colours
seamlessly together to soften harsh lines.” Eyeshadow is my favourite
product to buy and experiment with so blending brushes are a must for me! After
all blend is your friend remember! It does exactly what it says on the tin and
does it perfectly!
Pointed Eyeliner Brush – “Delivers a precise, firm and even line.”
I haven’t managed to try this brush out yet as I’m on a felt tip liner kick at
the moment.
Brow & Liner Brush – “Fills in brows and lines eyes for extra
definition.” As I said above I like my felt tip liner pens so have only
tried this brush on my brows. It’s a great brush for filling in brows and may
work better for liner but I think I prefer my Zoeva
322 Brush as it’s more firm so I can really carve out my brows.
Brow
& Lash Groomer – “Grooms, combs and
defines brows and lashes.” With a spoolie on one end and the comb and brush
on the other this is the perfect brush to carry round with you if you travel. I
love to use the spoolie to comb through my brows once I’ve filled them in and
the brush to tame the beasts but find I don’t use the comb very much. I don’t
have the most steady hands so don’t like to use anything near my eye other than
a mascara wand.
Overall this is a perfect
set for if you’re a beginner with makeup or if you’re more experienced this is
a great addition to your collection. This set plus other brushes are available
from Superdrug and are on offer at the moment.
Have you tried these brushes before? What were your thoughts?
