Charm Kabuki Brush

My main blush brush, the Charm Retractable Kabuki, literally fell apart on me last December. The glue holding the metal parts together dissolved, and no amount of regluing could get the brush's retracting mechanism to work properly again. While I did not love the falling apart, I really loved the brush's density. I was convinced that no other brush brand would be the same. And so, to prevent any more incidents like that, I got the nonretractable variant as a replacement.

Charm Retractable Kabuki Brush

I first heard of Charm brushes a few months ago when Cha posted about them. I then discovered Shopsui, the awesome awesome store at Tiendesitas that sells them locally.

I TOTALLY wanted their hot pink retractable kabuki, and now I finally have it!

The brush is super soft and picks up powder VERY easily. It takes quite a while to dry and smells a bit funny, though. But other than that, I really like it - super great deal for just P500!

The brush actually reminds me of a lightsaber hilt, if lightsaber hilts were hot pink and Jedi carried them around in house clothes (painted over with black to make em look more presentable LOL) and messy keep-my-hair-out-of -my face hair dos.

(Purple light saber auras are real, though.)

Sorry, I couldn't resist a bit of geeky photoshop fun. :P
