I’m not generally a person to love eye brushes- maybe because I didn’t own many eyeshadows. I was mostly a one and done cream eyeshadow person. Then, something drove me to discover one Tom Ford palette this summer(yes, I know I’m late to the game) and I bought 5 more 😅. So I guess I bought a few brushes and they were okay. Until I bought Sonia G eye brushes and specially this alpine series eye duo.

Should I complete the set?

I have Alpine 6 and 8 from Sonia G’s Alpine eye set — should I add Alpine 5 and Alpine 7 ? Alpine 8 is making a very convincing case but I do have pencil an blender brushes.

Alpine 8 has the most unique shape — it’s a big brush, but it applies directionally into my creases so well. It’s soft, and depending on the angle I hold it, it does so many different things.

The details:
🖌️ Sonia G Alpine Series Eye Set — limited edition, inspired by the Swiss Alps
🐐 Yashabushi-dyed saikoho goat — the grey dye (from Japanese Green Alder) is all about airiness and softness
🏔️ Alpine 8: tapered, 20mm bristles (longest of the four) — airy laydown, dense at the base, wispy at the tip
🏔️ Alpine 6: dense and domed, 10mm — an “oversized pencil” for small circular motions
🤔 The ones I don’t have: Alpine 5 (airy pencil for detail work) and Alpine 7 (blender + crease in one

My take:
1️⃣ Alpine 6 vs my Mini Essentials dome brush → same shape family, but the Alpine 6 is a little smaller and blends more diffused way.
2️⃣ Yashabushi vs my kakishibu brushes → I have a few of her kakishibu eye brushes now and love them, but the yashabushi bristles are softer — this series is made for blending eyeshadow softly.
3️⃣ The face brush → ALP3 is the face version of ALP8’s silhouette — launched in April, limited edition, sold out with no restock news. I’m watching it like a hawk. 👀

So tell me straight — Alpine 5 and 7: complete the set or stop while I’m ahead?

SONIA G SUPERSTAR COLLECTION Limited Edition.
my favorite brushes.

I'm a huge fan of SONIA G makeup brushes, and the SUPERSTAR Collection is one of my favorite and most-used collections in my current makeup stash.

I’m traveling right now (I’m in Miami ), and these SUPERSTAR brushes are all I need to create a complete eye look.

The super-soft Blue squirrel bristles are perfect for my sensitive eyelids and under-eye area.

I buy all of my Sonia G brushes from @beautylish

Unfortunately, most of the SUPERSTAR Collection brushes are sold out at the moment, but hopefully Sonia will restock them soon.

If you see them available, run, don’t walk — they are SO good!

Have you tried any of the SUPERSTAR brushes?
Which brush is a must-have for you?

Happy happy weekend 🌺

The secret brush from #bisyodo was revealed and I knew right away that I wanted the both of them!

The flying squirrel 🐿️ I had initially thought would be close to the red squirrel or giant squirrel… 🤔
Well .. I was wrong! It’s not the giant Indian squirrel at all cause the latter has elasticity, spring, some slight bounce..
My Takeda vintage red squirrel over decades old used to be one of the plushest and exquisite in terms of softness.. but this vintage flying squirrel has knocked off its throne 👑
The bristles are incredibly deep in intensity and looks almost like mahogany in the sunlight.
The pics 📸 are unfiltered —- scroll through ❤️‍🔥
I almost want to get doubles of everything 😅🤣🙈
Yes I love it this much….

The Yakusugi handles smells incredibly amazing!! I couldn’t resist to matchy match with my #soniag brush holder

ありがとうございます @bisyodo , @cosmetic_brush for making this happen and for allowing us to include this piece in our collection🙏🏼💝💓

Bisyodo is so underrated and definitely needs more recognition 💖💗💖💗💌🌺💐
Bisyodo offers free shipping over 50000¥ and tax free worldwide over 130’000¥ ❣️

SONIA G. SUPERSTAR Builder 2 & SYNTHETICS Builder.
My favorite multi-purpose eye makeup brushes.

You already know I’m a HUGE fan of Fude makeup brushes, and SONIA G. brushes have a very special place in my heart.

The quality, handmade craftsmanship, and beautiful design are simply exceptional.

I travel a lot, so I love taking brushes with me that are versatile and can be used for multiple purposes.

In today’s Reel, I’m showing you two Sonia G eye makeup brushes that I use a LOT — similar, yet different.

And yes… I even bought backups because I simply cannot be without them!
You can create entire eyeshadow look using just these brushes!

Starring:
@soniagbrushes
SUPERSTAR BUILDER 2 — natural bristles ( Blue squirrel bristles) - made in Japan

SYNTHETICS BUILDER — synthetic bristles - made in Japan

Both are AMAZING, and it’s no surprise they sell out so quickly!

I buy all my Sonia G brushes from @beautylish website. These two should be available again soon, so keep an eye out!

And if you want to learn more about these brushes, their craftsmanship, and how they’re made, definitely check out Sonia G’s blog @sweetmakeuptemptations

If you’re obsessed with Sonia G. The SUPERSTARS Collection like I am…

STAY TUNED!
I’ve bought another gorgeous brush to my collection, and I can’t wait to show you!

Any guesses which one?

KELLY HAD A VISION AND WE MADE IT COME TRUE!

She wanted a full ballerina look. Her hair was created in a sleek high bun, and we had pink tones makeup.

Every detail was discussed and made sure it's exactly how it should be.

This dress totally stole my heart.
