Aikosmetics Rose Gold Brush Set

Complete Brush Set Review!

About a month ago, thanks to a Instagram competition, I was contacted by 
Claudejyne the founder of the luxurious beauty brand - Aikosmetics 
I had won a complete set of their beautiful Rose Gold Makeup Brushes!
I was so grateful & beyond excited to try these!
The full set has 6 synthetic Face & 5 natural-hair Eye brushes
All with pale pink handles & rose gold ferrules, 
"..these brushes ensure you can achieve the best makeup application possible"

Only a week after contacting me, this pretty pink box arrived
 to my house in NZ, all the way from UK!
I've spent some time using each of the brushes, cleaning & using them again to test the quality..
They are super soft, feel lovely on the skin & look beautiful
I have one problem & that's with the white bristle brushes in this set..
All four shed every time I use them!


Face Brushes

Lasting Perfection Powder Brush - Fluffy Finishing Powder Brush. Dense & perfect for applying setting powder & mattifying specific areas without caking up or moving other products on the face 

Radiant Complexion Buffer -  Round Top Buffer is great for applying foundation to achieve a naturally flawless coverage. I like to use it for buffing/blending out cream products; contour or blush

Angled Blush Brush - For soft blush/bronzer application, this brush picks up the perfect amount of pigmented powder! Also works really well for contouring & softly blending that cheekbone shape! Sadly it sheds the hairs every time I use it or wash it..but that doesn't affect the finish 

Flawless Finish Flat Top - Achieve a flawless finish with this foundation brush. The short dense bristles build up the liquid to a full flawless coverage without wasting & soaking up all the product!

Skin Luminosity Highlight Perfect size & shape to blend highlight product to the cheekbones to create radiant glowing skin! This brush sheds also..


Eye Brushes
Imperfection Concealer Brush - Blend concealer onto smaller areas of the face to hide imperfections. Can also be used for defined contouring. I prefer to use it like an angled eyeshadow brush though!

Colour Precision Flat Brush - Apply eyeshadow base & shimmer all over the lid. I personally think it's to dense to pack on colour, it's better when used wet with shimmers

Beautiful Eyes Blending Brush - A fluffy eyeshadow brush that blends out harsh lines for a flawless eye look & good for applying transition shades. This is my fave! but it sheds while blending :/

Eye Contour Brush - This tapered eyeshadow brush blends eyeshadow into the crease seamlessly!

Smokey Eyes Pointed Brush - A pointed dome eyeshadow brush used for precise colour application. Apply a darker eyeshadow to the outer V for a smokey finish.

Perfect Brows Angled Brush - Used to create perfect brows or apply liner flawlessly. I love using this for my brows with a pomade, it's quite thin but easily makes fine hair-like strokes in brows.






I really love these brushes! 
They're beautiful pink & rose gold, soft & each one do what they're described to do!
The only downfall is the white bristle brushes shedding..
They are £59.99 (approx $140 nzd)
They ship worldwide! - prices will vary for country & weight of item,
Once shipped, they arrive super quickly in a pretty pink box!
You can purchase each brush individually on their website also ;)
