Product Review:
Being a diehard fan of Bdellium’s colorful bamboo (Bambu)
brush lines I decided to add one of their Maestro brushes to my ever growing
collection. The brush has the typical gloss black finished handle and aluminum
ferrule with a combination of natural and synthetic hairs.
As stated on Bdellium’s website: “Designed to sculpt and shape cheeks and temples
using powder, blush, or highlighter”, which I can attest to using all three
products with this brush. I found while using this brush it holds plenty of
product for blush and highlighter application without the need to double and
triple dip into product. The unique shape made it possible to perfectly apply
makeup under my eyes. The bristles are extremely soft and easy enough to hand
wash, and after doing so, the shape comes back with no irregularities.
The only issues I
had have been when using this brush for contouring. Like mentioned previously
this brush holds product, so I end up having an asymmetrical end result which
requires a lot of blending. However, the primary function of this brush, for
me, has been as a blending and setting tool. The price is reflective of the
overall quality of this brush. I would definitely recommend it for blending
after contouring. There is a high possibility of repurchase of this individual
for my shelf.
