I'm very satisfied with the eye shadow brushes I currently use (a combo of Target and Sonja Kashuk), but couldn't resist the wonderful reviews of these "luxurious taklon brushes." So when I opened them up and saw that the eyeshadow brushes are rather flat, I wasn't sure if they were going to measure up to my plumper brushes. What I found is that I don't need all those extra fibers to achieve a good eye shadow application. With the taklon brushes, I feel that I get less fall-out and waste less product. It'll just take some getting used to after using the same brushes for over a year. With that said, I'm not sure that I feel the same way about the large rounded face brush. The fibers are very dense and I'm used to a much looser brush (for both blush and powder). I think I'm going to have to work with that brush a bit more before I make a decision on it.

10 lovely nesters say...:
I love the brushes :) Glad you picked some up!
I have the large all over shadow brush and the pointed crease brush.
I can't wait to see Showy and Shadow Witch on you ;)
I love the way their packaging looks in the photo :) Can't wait to see the looks you come up with using your new colors.
The only brush that I have tried is the fiber optic shadow brush and I love it. Haven't tried any others so can't wait to hear how you like them. The shadow colors are so pretty. I am sure you will come up with some great looks...
I'll keep you all posted on how the brushes work for me. I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with the angled sculptor.
Gorgeous children and family. I like your blog alot. Come stop by mine and say hello and have a look around!

Hi Belle! Thanks. It's so nice to meet you. I would love to visit your blog.
Hi, Robyn, it's Lisa! Love the blog, you've done a great job with it - glad you're liking the brushes! Aren't they great?
Hi Lisa! Thanks for following my blog. A girl can always use more *blog lovin*. I like your avatar. Is it Betty Boop? I also like your blog ID name. It happens to be a nickname I have for my daughter (without the 1163 of course).
Yes, it's Betty, but right now I'm trying out different avatars - this one right now is an avatar I was able to make of myself. Or as close as I could get, LOL!
CG1163: It's cute. A photo would be easier, no?
