Coastal Scents Brush Set Plus Two

I just got my order of Coastal Scents makeup brushes this morning. I guess it arrived while I was taking a nap. Yes, it's weird to take a nap in the morning. I took one when I got home from dropping my son off to school. Waking up to a package waiting on my doorstep sure made my day. That was a pleasant surprise. :)

What I mainly ordered was the Ultimate Pink Brush Set, which has 10 pieces. In addition to that, I decided to throw in two more brus
hes to my order. Those were the Fan Brush Black (Yes, not Black Fan Brush.) and Pink Semi Firm Pointed Crease. The set doesn't come with a fan brush. I sure can use one. I'll see if this one works for cleaning out fall-out or other purposes. As for the crease brush, I got it because it's cute, pink, and on clearance. It's only $1.98. Might as well. Plus, you can never have enough crease brushes. Hehe...

Now for the set... Taking it out of the baggy was a bittersweet moment. I was happy to finally have it, yet quite disappointed to discover two of them are DENTED. First, I saw the Kolinsky Lip brush cap. It's banged up on the center. Nothing that major, but it somewhat bothered me. I still kept it though. I washed it and threw it in my makeup bag after it dried. What made me sad is the Synthetic Oval Foundation brush. The ferule is dented too. Other than being dented, it's loose. It's trying to break away from the hand
le. This is the brush I was most looking forward to. It's really cute and I am sure it would be useful. Too bad it's broken though. Oh, well... I'm glad all the rest of the brushes are fine and in tact.

Other brushes in the set are the Flat Top Bronzer Buffer, Deluxe Oval Shadow, Blending Fluff, Oval Fluff Shadow, Synthetic Oval Concealer, Semi Firm Pointed Crease (another one), Oval Taklon Lip, and Angle Taklon
Liner. And yes, I had mentioned the two broken brushes earlier. All 10 pieces with brush roll included are $24.95. Not a bad deal.

Delivery was quick. I ordered these Friday early morning and got them this morning. I got them after three business days, which is awesome. I have to admit though. I paid a bit extra for shipping. I'd get very antsy if I had to wait longer. LOL.

If you'd like for me to go into further detail about the brushes or have me review them, please don't hesitate to ask. I am excited to use them. I can't wait for them to dry after washing. LOL. Actually, the eye brushes ar
e dry. Still waiting on the bronzer buffer one. It's nice to see some cute, pink brushes as new members of my brush family. Boy, that sounded weird. Haha... But yes, incorporating color with anything (makeup brushes included) sure does put a lot of us in a happy mood. Myself included. :)

Sucks that the two brushes were dented :( Have you sent them an email or called customer service to let them know? I would & hope that they replace the damaged brush especially since you said that it's coming off from the handle.
