It Cosmetics Your Face & Eye Essentials Travel Brush Set

The It Cosmetics Your Face & Eye Essentials Travel Brush Set ($30) is a new travel friendly set of mini It for Ulta Makeup Brushes that’s available exclusively at Ulta and Ulta.com which includes five essential mini It Cosmetics Brushes!

Take a look!

It Cosmetics Essentials Travel Brush Set

This is for the travel folks out there who want a set of essential brushes that are small enough for travel but still pack plenty of usability and quality. Too many times I come across travel friendly brush sets that come with brushes I won’t use or brushes that aren’t as great as their larger sizes.

It Cosmetics does a great job with the Your Face & Eye Essentials Travel Brush Set as these smaller sizes are just as fabulous as their larger cousins.

The set includes:

  • Complexion: Small, domed ultra soft brush head
  • Shadow: Small, soft rounded head designed for the delicate eye area
  • Crease: Narrow, tapered head designed to fit into the crease of the eye area
  • Smudger: Firm, tapered head designed for softening lines, smudging edges and blending out color
  • Liner/ Brow: Firm, flat angled brush hair

All five brushes have lightweight black handles and soft, fibre bristles. The bristles actually remind me of MAC’s fibre’s line of brushes such as the 286 as they have the same soft texture. I like a good dense brush for eyeshadow application but I typically love soft, fibre bristled brushes for blending since you can do that sweeping blending motion so much easier with softer bristles.

The brushes come housed in a small black pouch but I didn’t love the pouch as it keeps flipping open (it has a small magnetic closure but for some reason it wouldn’t stay closed)!

All in all the It Cosmetics Your Face & Eye Essentials Travel Brush Set is an excellent little value for travellers! This is a great way to experience It Cosmetics new Ulta exclusive Brush Collection and let me tell you the size doesn’t take away from the quality here! This little guys as just as great as the larger It Cosmetics Brushes!

Available now at Ulta and Ulta.com.

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Sounds like a pretty fab set, awesome! Too bad we don’t get this brand here.

    Sephora has a very similar set that is on sale for $15. it was the first brush set I ever bought and has remained my favorite. so when it went on sale, I bought a backup. The brushes are better than a lot of my full size, high end brushes.

    Great review! I’ve been meaning to try these out but i was wondering, what are the sizes of these brushes? I really dislike extremely small handles.

    While I don’t have this exact set, I do own a number of IT Cosmetic brushes and they are the absolute best! I have tried numerous brushes from economic brands, as well as those middle and high-end, and I find IT brushes to be far superior than anything I have ever tried. I totally recommend them!!!
