Lovely mini kabuki EcoTools


EcoTools® cosmetic brushes are what started it all! The iconic look of the sleek bamboo, gorgeous recycled aluminum and incredibly soft bristles are only part of what makes EcoTools, EcoTools.
Cosmetic brushes are beautiful and show respect for the earth. They are 100% cruelty-free, have incredibly soft bristles made of synthetic taklon and have handles made of bamboo and recycled aluminum ferrules.



EcoTools, Beautiful Expressions Kabuki Set





Brushes are really well-made, durable, soft, affordable, cruelty-free & highly portable (with a brush guard). Apart from the buff brush, I'm really happy with how the rest of the brushes apply with powder. At $ 3.5 / brush I think they are worth it! Brushes are small, 2.5 inches tall. I like it for traveling too, would throw in a brush guard and travel with this.

Where to buy:  I got these at iherb.com for $13.95, here’s the direct link with $5 off, if you new costumer.  I believe  you can also find these at target.

More of each of them:

Conceal: A mini softly-pointed brush. This brush is great for creams & liquid. The tapered top and slim shape is really good to go into the crevices of your face.



Bronze: This is definitely not for creams, but great as a blush brush (which is what I use), or bronzing brush. I feel like the shape is just right for my cheeks.
  
  

Contour: A soft dome shaped brush used for contouring blush. It says it’s a contour brush, but I used this to buff in my powder foundation and it really picks up the product and buffs into my skin perfectly.

   

Buff:  A mini flat-headed brush perfect for buffing product into your face or wiping off excess blush or powder. The denseness is similar to the bronze kabuki, but  brush is a little small for all over the face dusting. , and hence was a little disappointed with this.


Hope you enjoyed my review!

EcoTools Accessories

If you don't know much about Eco Tools Brushes, they're great quality brushes but are also eco friendly - they're made of recycled material and are cruelty free which is fantastic. 


EcoTools, Bamboo 6 Piece Brush Set





I found on iHerb.com this one for $10 which I think is amazing seeing as these sets are $20 in the shops!
The five brushes you get are a Lash / Brow groomer, a Concealer Brush, a Blush Brush, and two Eye brushes. It also comes with a little pouch to keep them in!

Blush brush - this is so soft! Very nice to use a brush)

Concealer brush - a good brush, but it would be a smaller size to mask small pimples

Lash and Brow Groomer. Now this one I haven't used very much, and I'll definitely use it next time I do my brows!

Eye Shading Brush and Eyeliner Brush. It truly is great. They picks up product well and because it's rounded you can really get some shape on your lids with it.

In conclusion I want to say that's great. They really are great brushes if you can't afford Sigma etc.

Earth Therapeutics, Loofah Bath Pad


Tasted and so loved that lingered in the bathroom ... I really liked

EcoTools, Sustainable Moisture Socks




Socks are so soft and comfy, so are my feet after using them for a night. However not for thin feet, as tend to fall out during the night.

EcoTools, Bamboo Mini Nail Files



Large grit made filing/sculpting my nails so quick. I think the grit could be a bit smaller and still be effective, but I am pleased with the files overall.  good size to fit easily in a travel case or a purse.

EcoTools, Bamboo Mini Foot File



It is very usefull. Destroying all calluses, highly recomended.

EcoTools, Loofah Facial Sponges



When wet these sponges are very gentle to skin. Clean and exfoliate very softly. They are so cheap though, still a good value.
