Product Review: Petunia Skincare Professional 12 Make Up Brush Set


Good evening everyone! Happy Monday! I don't know where most of you guys are from but I'm from NYC and we sure are due to get a good deal of snow overnight. Just wishing all of my viewers to be safe and cautious if the weather conditions are great. Now onto product talk. I have been waiting to review this product for so long! If you are following me on my Instagram (LINK) then you already may have a hint to what it is! It's the Petunia Skincare Professional 12 Make Up Brush Set! I am quite the beauty and makeup lover! I have tried many different brands, everything from drug store to high end. I know great products when I see them! This product is definitely great for beginners, let's get started!


About The Product
(From the product website and from the product itself.)
-Product comes with 12 studio quality brushes, the brush pouch/holder and 6 brush guards. (Brush guards are used to preserve the shape of the brush after washing or storing.)

My Review
        Overall I think the set of the brushes is great. I like the feel of them, the color and the size are decent. I have a pretty decent sized make up brush collection so I do have a preference over some of these brushes. I like the eye brushes the most, the smudge, eye shadow brush  and eyebrow brush are probably my favorite. The face brushes are also great, I enjoyed using the powder brush and the blush brush. I don't typically use this many brushes in my day to day look but for the look below, I tried to use as many as I could. I feel that this is a great set for a beginner. The quality is great but not the same as for example a MAC brush or maybe Urban Decay or IT Cosmetics. 

(Used Bare Minerals Bare Skin Foundation in the Shade Bare Buff 10, Urban Decay Vice 3 Palette, BH Cosmetics Eye Brow Powder Palette, Sephora Collection Blush Trio and Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lip Stick in Berry Rose.)

        The price of this set is also a bit up there but you are paying for a great quality set. This is really everything you need. I love that the set also comes with a little book to show what each brush is used for and more about it. I think that it is a great tool to have and to reference. The color and quality of the brush itself is also great, no shedding and the color is pretty (it's like a pink color type of color). The pouch is also decent, it has the plastic smell to it upon first impression but if you air it out, it does go away a bit. I tend to not travel and bring all my brushes with me and just keep them in a box standing up on my vanity so I don't really use the pouch. Overall I am very pleased with this set and would definitely recommend it! Check it out today! By the way, what did you guys think of my look?

  2. This looks like such a great set to have for a makeup beginner like me, I do not usually wear make-up but when I do I have real technique brushes about 4 of them and only use 1. Thanks for the thorough review and honesty on quality.

  3. I have these brushes! I love them, but I've found you have to be very gentle when cleaning them as the bristles fall off with a more harsh scrubbing. As far as makeup application, though, they are by far one of the best and I've tried so many different brands! Also love Bare Minerals. I used them for about 8 years exclusively and then converted to Mac, but I've been thinking recently that my skin and health can benefit from going back to a more natural product. Thanks for your review!

  4. My daughter works for a luxury brand make-up company. She is always telling me how important it is to use good, quality brushes to apply my make-up. I know she's right, but I still just use the ones that come with my product.

  5. I need new brushes! These look lovely. I don't wear make up often but when I do I find having the right brushes makes such a difference! I haven't heard of this brand before but it's worth checking out!

  7. I am in desperate need of new brushes since my boys used my MAC set for painting. Yes, painting! I cried! I like the colour of these though - I'd be happy with a lower quality set since they probably will also get stolen by the boys ;)

  8. Can you believe I literally have ONE make-up brush that I use? It's just a big fluffy one that I use to apply powder all over my face. I wouldn't even know what to do with all of these brushes-- but I gotta learn-- and this kit looks perfect for that!

  9. These look like great make up brushes. A good makeup brush set seems to be so hard to find. I love the bag that it comes with as well. I love shopping on amazon for my beauty supplies.

  10. These brushes look awesome. I wear minimal makeup so I don't know the first thing about using them. I guess that's what YouTube is for. You look lovely by the way :)
