Tarte Unicorn Magical Wand Brush Set

So Today I’ll be reviewing a much awaited product in my vanity – Tarte Magical Wand Brush Set. They were launched in April 2017 and since then I was trying to get my hands on these brushes so badly that i cant tell. Unfortunately they were not available in India so i had to try even harder to get them. Finally i got them from a Instagram seller and i am so happy. Lets get into the review and know more about this.

Packaging

I can go on and on talking about packaging. They come in a cardboard box which gives you a unicorn feel with its pleasant colour scheme with the picture of brushes printed on it. When open you pull out this super cute purple butter paper with unicorns printed all over it. Tarte had me at these unicorns already. Securely wrapped inside this paper comes utterly beautiful to die for 5 brushes. Each having its own usage, which I will explain later. I think tarts could have given a pouch or a box for these brushes given the price of the set. It could have been lot easier to store them, because of course you don’t want them to get dirty at any cost. Well i do have brush box so doesn’t really matter. They are travel friendly given you carry them in a secure box or pouch.

My Experience

Each brush is used for different steps in makeup. They have unicorn shaped golden stick which differs in size as per density of the brush. I wanted them to be metal to be more sturdy but it is made of plastic. But thats fine too otherwise brushes would have been more heavy and difficult to work with. All brushes are pretty dense and easy to work with. Lets get to there individual usage.

Magenta Contour Brush: create the perfect contour, strobe or highlight with dense, flat bristles. This one looks purple to me more than magenta but anyway. It picks u the product in right amount and gives a really subtle highlight.

Pink Powder Brush: apply just the right amount of foundation or finishing powder for an airbrushed look. This one is dry products only brush because of its dome shape. I use it for baking only. It picks very little amount of the product.
