Re: made it to Costco
Thank you for breaking this down, and for the close up pic. Haven't decided if I want to get this or not since there isn't a Costco where I live. Plus I would have to pay $10 for shipping and handling.

They're not bad brushes at all. I used mine for shadow, got new brushes, so these have been downgraded to FX dirt brushes.

Last years was featured in Makeup Artist Magazine.

Re: made it to Costco
I got the older set and the brushes are ok.. they're soft but they're not THAT soft and they tend to poke at my eyes when I use the shadow brushes. I like the blush brush though.. it blends everything really well and the little kabuki is really cute and pretty soft too.

Re: made it to Costco
I think I have a similar version of that ~ but there was no fan brush incld or shimmer powder ~ the foundation brush was really great and so is the powder brush & Kabuki ~ I haven't really used any of the other brushes yet.

Re: made it to Costco
Very nice! I wonder if Costco in Toronto has it! Let us know the quality!

I was at Wal-Mart today looking for this brush sets that they always sell for Christmas and i didn't see any! They usually get them every year but maybe its still a bit early? Anyways, they have the best brushes!!! I use them more then my MAC brushes and i got 2 sets for $7 each on boxing day! So i'm wondering how the Costco set is and i really want a kabuki!!!

Re: made it to Costco
Hm, the ones I've been seeing at Costco lately are the ones without the fan brush and powder. The set I have is the one with the brush cleaner. I'd say it's good for it's price. I've had mine for about half a year and they're still good. I think all of the brushes are great except for the powder one. It sheds like crazy and I hate it. The kabuki does, too but it's no where near the amount the powder one sheds. The eye brushes are amazing. <3

Re: made it to Costco
I have a Kirkland brush set too, only mind had an eyelash curler instead of the beauty powder. I got mine after seeing Pursebuzz's review (she does a good detailed review), and so far, I like the brushes.
