Karen Walker Amber Craft Beauty Brush Set + Stand Review
Karen Walker Amber Craft Beauty Brush Set + Stand is a gorgeous, limited edition five piece makeup brush set with a display stand that was designed by Karen Walker for the Karen Walker Sephora Holiday 2015 Collection.
Well known designer Karen Walker has worked with and designed clothes for celebrities such as Beth Ditto, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Lopez, and more but this is the first time she’ll working with Sephora to design her own beauty accessory collection featuring makeup brushes and a compact mirror.
Each piece in the Karen Walker for Sephora Collection is crafted with the accents of a gorgeous gold tortoise pattern. The collection is designed with an injected plastic process that gives each of the pieces a hand cut polished finish with unique 24 karat plates gold accents.
The Karen Walker Amber Craft Beauty Brush Set + Stand is possibly one of the most gorgeous luxury brush sets I’ve had the pleasure of using this Holiday season. I have so many makeup brushes but when the Holiday season falls I’m always looking out for limited edition, seasonal brush sets especially unique and pretty ones like this set.
As you can see this comes in an incredible gifting box with a gorgeous gold design. Inside you’ll find five heavy tortoise handled brushes with gold hands surrounding each brush. This is an expensive set but that reflected in the quality of each brush which is quite heavy and vanity worthy.
I love that you get five brushes you’ll make use of. Too many times I get Holiday brush sets that include a spoolie or an lash brush and I find I rarely use these. This set includes five brushes for face and eyes that you’ll use in daily looks!
You get:
- Large Angled Foundation Brush
- Angled Blush Brush
- Eyeshadow Brush
- Crease Brush
- Eyeliner Brush
Once you open the box you’ll be presented with a very, very heavy gold circle brush base. You can display the brushes on your vanity or dresser with this base as it keeps the brushes standing upright. It’s a nice little extra especially if you’re one for decorating your vanity with your fancy makeup and beauty accessories.
I think the most important question here though would be, “How are the makeup brushes?” I have yet to be disappointed by Sephora makeup brushes and I have in many of my past and present reviews likened them to higher end brushes from brands like MAC. These are great brushes with soft bristles that will last you through many, many cleanings. Some of my Sephora makeup brushes are well over 10 years old and still look and feel brand new. So the quality is in fact here.
As I said at $125 this is an expensive set but if you’re all about luxury, higher end gifts for yourself (or someone else) this Karen Walker Amber Craft Beauty Brush Set + Stand brings you a selection of quality, luxurious brushes in a presentable and gorgeous packaging!
The Karen Walker Amber Craft Beauty Brush Set + Stand launches shortly at Sephora and Sephora.com.
