[Kiss and Makeup]

I don't know anything about the ELF brushes, but I've heard absolutely amazing things about the coastal scents palettes. Purzebuzz on youtube did a video where she opened hers up for the first time on camera and she was really excited about them. The cases look gorgeous, and if I knew I'd use them (I already have SOOO much eyeshadow) I'd invest in them. The colors are small (dime shaped) but I've heard they're really pigmented and you don't need a lot.

I have a couple of their brushes and I really like them. I have the skunk brush (which doesn't shed as much as I thought it would) a dupe of the 219 (which I don't like for the 219, but it's still a good brush!) and a "small shader" brush that is literally about the size of a .25 carat diamond. I am CRAZY about it for detailed crease work and undereye work.

I also really like the fact they have a sale right now.. 40% off the 24 shimer eyeshadow! This brush is absolutely amazing. If you have an eyeshadow that doesn't have good payout with one coat, and you have to do multiples, this brush packs it on. The bristles are SO thick and SO stiff that it really works. It *can* be kind of pokey but it's worth it, IMHO.
