Hay hay hay! Welcome back to my half-naked face!!!!!! (INSERT POTATO FACE HERE) Today we are comparing brushes!!!!
~*You are about to watch a battle royal of a lifetime!*~
In the blue corner we have the returning champion - standing pink feet tall with millions of adoring fans by his side and years of experience in the makeup industry, Jeffreeeeeeeeeeeeeee Star X Morpheeeeee Brushes. In the red corner we have a new opponent - looking to do the job for less than half the price, straight out of China, Amazonnnnnn Priiiiiiiiiime Brushes.
Here is the link to the Amazon brushes as promised (I don't make any money by sharing these):
Unicorn Brushes with Diamond case: http://www.bit.ly/virginiafrank-unicornbrushes
Diamond Handle Brushes (no case): http://www.bit.ly/virginiafrank-diamondbrushes
Some notes to add that I thought of while editing this video:
I'm actually disappointed in the Jeffree Star Brushes. Yes, the diamond shaped brushes can be considered to be 'on brand' for Jeffree, however they are UNORIGINAL and the opposite of iconic. I literally have a set of diamond handle brushes that I previously bought from Amazon last year. It's been done. When I see a new product come from Jeffree I have grown to expect uniqueness and cutting edge aesthetic. I may get some hate for this, but honestly these brushes feel like a 'slightly' upgraded version of a set from Amazon - with Jeffree's face and name on it... Don't get me wrong - I LOVE JEFFREE {I stan SO HARD and I buy shit tons of his products} - These brushes do the job, they are functional and cute - HOWEVER, I expected Jeffree to come out with a set that would BLOW ME AWAY, even if it's a collaboration. And these are merely mediocre with his gorgeous face printed on the cardboard slip they arrive in. Maybe he has bigger plans to release an iconic set in the future with his own brand and didn't want to upstage them in this collab?
JEFFREE EXPLAIN PLEASE.
*DISCLAIMER* 7:02 I briefly put the Amazon brushes in the Jeffree eye corner but did not do enough to affect the lay or blend of the shadow - I was in the zone ? my bad.
ALSO, THIS IS MY OPINION, GOT YOUR OWN? TELL ME!
