Maybelline x Gigi Hadid Eye Contour Brush 5g

I like this brush, its a good size, nice to hold and the bristles are very soft. I found it works really well and the tapered shape makes it not just for applying but also for blending along the contour line of your eye

Have nothing bad to say about this product, does exactly what you'd expect - good for blending and adding overall colour. Not great for precision but then you wouldn't be buying this sort of brush anyway. Attractive design, really nice colour handle and finish, however definitely a cheaper brush made more expensive by the name in the collaboration.

There are better brushes out there and clearly the branding has added a quid or two but having said that the brush is quite nice. The tip nicely angled to get into the eye socket and found it did get into the deepest parts. Bristles are soft and not scratchy on delicate eyelids. Provided suitable, even coverage and great for doing smoky eyes.

Lovely and soft brush with a tapered point that allows for a bit more precision when blending the darker colours for contouring.The bristles sweep across the skin smoothly and soften and blend the make-up nicely.

I really like this makeup brush - it's suitable for doing the eyes - the contouring bit apparently, which I'm not too bothered by to be honest, but there you go. The brush itself is perfect - it's a lovely blush pink colour and is sturdy and easy to hold, the brush bristles are really, really soft, and using the brush is so easy, it holds the colour well and it's great for blending. All in all, I quite like it!

Quite a nice brush. Normally I go for the fluffier kind, this is a little more compact with a slightly slimmer and flatter surface, it’s more suited to applying smaller pops of colour rather than than for blending out or doing a lot of crease work. The edges are soft but a little firmer, it’s decent for adding definition I’m the deepest part of a crease where you want it darkest, but it isn’t the most exceptional blender. Looks nice with its little plastic sleeve to keep it dust free. Sleeve fits back on even after use.

No idea who Gigi Hadid is, but this is a very good brush, lovely chunky handle and brush bristles that are soft on your skin but firm enough to apply a ‘reasonably’ precise eye shadow effect. I don’t see it as a blender but it’s good for concentrating into the crease.I’ve washed mine twice and it’s still as good as new.

Ok, if you're a huge fan of the Hadid sisters then this collaboration between Gigi and Maybelline will have you clicking Buy it Now anyway, ans yes this is a really good looking brush with a soft but slightly dense colour fade bristle tip and a gorgeous pinky biscuit barrel. I like this brush just for how it looks and it does a fair job of what it's designed to do.The brush is a flat brush with a tapered to a point tip, it's labelled as a contour brush which to me implies that it is good for adding concentrated colour in the socket crease or creating the illusion of a winged/cat eye shape to make the most of your eyes. However it didn't really have the oomph in the tips of the brush to really deposit a clean sharp line. What I found this brush is good at is using the flat of the brush applying colour over the lid, not a wash of colour but adding an accent colour either across the lid or the outer third or framing around a central spotlight, the tip allows you to follow the contour of the eye with the tip and blend colour over the lid, but isn't so good at cutting crease nor is it good at applying punchier colours which tend to go muddy or wishy washy with this brush as it doesn't deposit colour as well as others in my collection.It's not the best brush in my collection by far, it's a cheap brush with a pretty makeover and a name on it to bump the price at the end of the day, not as cheap as some you can get and so performs better than one out of roll of brushes for£8 sort of thing but to be fair, it's not in the league of more professional led brushes even in affordable price range such as Real Techniques which far outshine this for a similar price.However, it's a pretty brush and it doesn't do a bad job of applying colour, so if you like the colour way or the branding then go for it.
