So now lets look at each brush
Just a note, Jennifer created these brushes with a vision of a person with smaller eyes, usually the Asian.
Hence some of the brushes are smaller in size as compared to the usual brushes.
ps: I forgot to include the eyeliner brush when I took the pictures.

I think the big brushes are worth the investment.
The brushes are dense and feel soft on the skin.
The handle is very sturdy too.

- Roll powder & Flat powder brush
I like the size and density of the brushes.
They feel luxurious, soft on the skin and the handle is very sturdy
Con:
The flat powder brush does shed (see picture below)
My opinion after usage:
I prefer something less dense.
The dense bristle made me feel that most of the products are trapped in the brush instead.
- Angled foundation brush
The brush feels dense and soft on the skin
The size is smaller than the usual brush hence it may take more time to blend in the foundation.
Con:
Once being used the bristle will be stained, even after you washed it.
It will not return to its pure white form.
My opinion after usage:
It is a decent brush. It does its job, I have nothing to complain about it. - Angled brush
The size is smaller than the usual.
My opinion after usage:
I do not like the size of the brush.
As the brush is small, it is only able to focus on a small area.
If you used a blush which does not have a good blending ability, it will create patches on your skin (some part of your cheek may look brighter)
I think this brush is suitable for people who like to focus their blush on a small area. - Precise contour
I felt a bit awkward when using this brush to contour.
I am not sure whether I should use the tip or the side of the brush to apply the contour.
In the end, I used the side to contour my cheek (this is my first time using a dome-like brush for contouring)
I felt more comfortable using the tip of the brush for contouring the temple and forehead
I feel that if I use the tip of the brush to contour, it will create a strong and precise contour.
Using the side of the brush will create a softer and natural contour.
Con:
My opinion after usage:
There was once I accidentally picked up too much product on the tip of the brush and once the tip touched my face, it left an obvious mark. It did not manage to soften out the contour.
- Concealer brush
The bristles are longer than usual.
Because of its long bristles, I can easily blend out my under eye concealer at ease, without tucking it and removing the concealer.
If I used it as an eyeshadow brush, I feel that the bristles are too long to pad the eyeshadow onto the eyelid.
It gave me less control on applying the eyeshadow.
My opinion after usage:
It is a decent brush. I used it to apply the eye primer. - Flat eyeshadow brush
Although the brush looks small, it makes the eyeshadow application at ease and I am able to work the eyeshadow into the crease.
My opinion after usage:
This is my favourite brush. This brush can be used both as a flat brush and a blending brush. - Small blending brush
The bristle is a little stiff.
Stiff as in it is not able to blend out the eyeshadow effortlessly.
My opinion after usage:
Because of the above mentioned, I do not use this brush
- Pencil eyeshadow brush
I felt that this brush can only give a light/soft smudge, it is not able to give an intense/visible smudge.
At the end of the day, I could no longer see the eye eyeshadow colour under my eyes.
My opinion after usage:
As most of the time, I do not smudge my eyeshadow hence I rarely use this brush. - Eyeliner brush
able to create a thin, sharp eyeliner
My opinion after usage:
I do like the eyeliner, it is able to create a thin line
My Last Note:
If I am given a choice to buy the brush individually,
I will definitely buy the Flat eyeshadow brush
I like that I am able to use it as a flat brush and a blending brush.
I am able to blend the eyeshadow without touching my gel eyeliner (usually I draw my eyeliner first before applying eyeshadow) and it blends out the eyeshadow effortlessly.
I will buy the Eyeliner brush as it is able to create a thin and neatline.
Also do note that, once the big brushes are being used, the bristles will be stained.
