I've got a 2-for-1 comparison for you today 😁 meet the chonkers in
@soniagbrushes 's Superstar release!
After so many years of being a go-to source on fude,
@sweetmakeuptemptations has still got it! I really appreciate that she's remained true to her roots and up front about her fantastic releases. I strongly recommend checking her blog for more information. I love reading SMUT 🤪
As an aside, as someone who also toured factories, Sonia's description of the manufacturing process is accurate. In this age of not believing everything you see on the internet, I get being skeptical but imo there's no need for it here. She's not overstating anything about how brushes are made to get sales; these really are done by hand, and it's mesmerizing to watch. I have posts pinned in my highlights if you want to see more.
There's not too much I can add beyond what Sonia wrote on her blog. It's good because it saves me trouble, but bad because it limits what to say 😆
The Detail 2 is described as not a blush brush, but good for face work. I've used it to apply blush 🙊 I think it's great for Lisa Eldridge's watercolor blush technique since it allows for detailed placement. Since the Detail 2 covers so much surface area, I agree it's not ideal for eyeshadow, but I guess it could work if you want to apply an all-over wash of something pigmented and you've got a lot of real estate. Really though, to me, that would be an exercise in cramming purpose into a brush that isn't really there. Sonia has several other options for that like her Jumbo Concealer, or the Detail Pro. I find the Detail 2 can kind of drag when setting under eye concealer because of the airiness, so it's not a go-to of mine for that. The WCS + Saibikoho Detail 1 is a better option, imo, but I still get some 🤏🏽 skipping with that, too.
I'd also like to add the Worker L is a fantastic brush and like a dyed goat version of the Detail 2. It's the only one in this lineup that doesn't have a lacquered handle and feels the most lightweight, so the tactile sensation is not in line with the others. They're all still friends, though! 🫶🏽😉
