If you're looking for a brush set that does it all when it comes to sculpting (and more), i think i might've just found it!






















This Sculpting Set from Beauty Junkees contains 4 synthetic brushes for all areas of the face as well as a makeup sponge and little carrying case. Wanna know more? Well lemme tell you...





Sculptor - This gorgeous dense brush is awesome for bronzing, contouring, blush and really any powder application. You can get very intense results with this as well as a very soft application by just using less product on the brush. I think of this brush as being a great powder classic!






Duo Fiber - This is another great all-rounder powder brush for a lighter, softer application. Although it is generally better for a light application, you definitely can build up a really airbrushed finish with this one because it's fibers are less densely packed- it might take a while to build but once you have achieved the result you want, it looks so soft and natural. I also love this for setting powder because it gives a light covering without disturbing whats underneath.



Highlighter - This brush is the perfect little shape and size for highlighting the tops of your cheek bones and the pointed tip allows you to be VERY precise. Its also incredible for setting the under-eye area without disturbing any product beneath as well as applying an all over lid color in one quick swipe.

A great option for those who just can't get to grips with a fan brush!







Detailer - This brush is wonderful for contouring the nose, highlighting small areas and also... doing your eye makeup! Although this set is intended as a contouring and highlighting kit, it really has everything you could need for a quick full face application of makeup!








Sponge - I've mentioned it before but i love Beauty Junkees sponges and really think this was the perfect way to complete the set! The shape allows for a full application of base products as well as more detailed sculpting and even correcting any mistakes with its precise tips.






Overall i think its a great little set that fulfills all my base product needs as well as very basic eye makeup application. Awesome for those who have no idea where to start when it comes to sculpting, right up to sculpting pros who just want some more brush options!

There are lots of makeup sponges on the market today; some great and some not so great. This bad boy, however, seems totally different to me.


I've mentioned Beauty Junkees before and recently received their 4 piece beauty sponge blender set to take for a spin.















Day to day i either use the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge (aka tiny sweet potato) or ye olde Beauty Blender Pro and i have pretty strong feelings for both so i wasn't sure what i'd think of these new kids on the block.

The pink sponge was the first i gravitated towards since its more of the traditional shape i'm used to. When its dry, it definitely feels very firm and i wasn't sure how i was going to like it but as soon as you've squeezed in under the tap a few times, it turns into the softest, squishiest, suede-like sponge ever. You can see it in use in this video.

All of the sponges have a very similar texture and feel firm when dry but turn into the fluffiest sponges when wet.




















Now, I'm going to try and explain this in a really scientific way so bear with me. I think the bubbles in the sponge are smaller so they absorb a little less product than other sponges i've tried. This prevents it from soaking up too much product but also absorbs just enough excess to leave you without the face-cake.
Although i do think the bubbles are smaller, i also think theres more of them; hence the extra squishy puffiness. Its really something you need to experience in person because they're really correct when they say the texture is suede-like.

In the past i've found that firmer sponges typically disturb the makeup as it applies it but this just lays down the smoothest, thin layer of product while wicking away excess at the same time. It works beautifully for a light coverage all the way up to layering fuller coverage foundations.


I'm not typically one to keep packaging but i like to store my clean sponges back in the bag once they're dry!




I've tried all 4 out but i have to say the pink is my favorite, closely followed by the green. These just suit my style of application better but you may prefer the blue or purple!


Overall i'm really impressed with these and think they're unlike any sponges i've used before. I'll be sure to continue using these in tutorials so you can see how they each perform!
