Meilily Product Pick: Cruelty-free Kabuki Brush by Stript
Saturday, January 24th, 2009 | Photos, Product Picks, Tools and Brushes | 2 Comments
Meilily has found the most amazing makeup brush ever, and you’re gonna love it!
The Kabuki Brush #181 by Stript Makeup is hands down the best kabuki brush ever! Not only is this brush super soft and extremely dense, but it is also made of vegan synthetic bristles that are cruelty-free. You can’t beat a makeup brush that works well and is also cruelty-free!
The taklon bristles on the Stript Kabuki Brush are even crimped, unlike most synthetic bristles out there, and apparently crimped synthetic bristles are more similar to natural hairs and can hold makeup better than straight synthetic bristles. When I heard that the Stript Kabuki Brush was crimped, I was sold!
The Stript Kabuki Brush retails for $38, and is well worth it. Kabuki brushes can be used to apply mineral makeup, blush, and more. To find out more about Stript Makeup and to find beauty stores where Stript products are sold, check out their website, StriptMakeup.com. The Stript Kabuki Brush is currently available on Amazon through Beauty Collection, where I got mine.
Meilily says: Love the Stript Kabuki Brush!
