I've heard nothing but great things about Rae Morris make up brushes so back when I placed an order on Love Make Up for a couple of Zoeva brushes (which are fantastic! Review here) I decided to add the Rae Morris Angle Brow/Mascara Definer to my basket. I needed a new spoolie and as this brush is probably the cheapest from the line I thought it would be a good, affordable way to try out the brand.
I have no idea what the rest of the Rae Morris brushes are like but after trying the Angle Brow/Mascara Definer I have no desire to buy more. When it arrived there was long bristles hanging from the spoolie, I wish I'd snapped some photos before giving them a trim. The whole thing rattles as if it hasn't been put together properly and the angled brow end isn't anything special. I was going to return it but after reading reviews which I should've done before placing my order, it seems that the rattle is the norm with this brush. It's also very thin which is fine for giving your brows a quick brush through but it makes trying to apply powder to your brows very awkward.
The quality just isn't there which is a shame as even if the rest of the brushes are incredible, it's put me off from wanting to buy any more.
Do you own any brushes from Rae Morris?
I thought this looked really good from the photos! Such a shame it was a disappointment, there's nothing worse than a badly made brush. I bought an Illamasqua angled brush not long ago, it rattled too and stank so so strongly of glue, and there was glue caught in all the bristles. Awful!! xx
ReplyDeleteI still haven't tried any Illamasqua brushes, I'm always scared to try brushes from other brands incase I hate them. I'm not a fan of bareMinerals brushes either, the type I had were so scratchy, felt like shredded wood and would shed like a mofo.
