I am on a roll with this FIRST IMPRESSIONS thing!
Next up: The BH Cosmetic Sculpt and Blend 2 Brush set!
As of today (10/21/15), this set retails for $19 (+shipping+tax), and come with 10 pieces.
Above are the 5 larger brushes of the 10:
(L-R) 123 falt top buffing brush, 124 tapered face blending brush, 125 tapered contour brush, 126 precision blush brush, 127 angled face shader brush
And of course, these are the other 5 brushes in the set:
(L-R) 128 small deluxe blending brush, 129 small round blending brush, 130 large shader brush, 131 nose contour brush, 132 precision detailer brush
PACKAGING?
Unlike the first generation of the Sculpt and Blend set, these sets do not come in a plastic resealable couch. They do, however, smell very much like the first set when you first receive them: bad. Well, more specifically, the brushes have a strong factory scent to them, like they've been absorbing all the plastic smell since they were manufactured. Don't worry, though! Just set them out overnight and the stench should clear out from your brushes.
Much like the set I reviewed in the previous blog post, these brushes have a black stem with numbers, and a gold ferrule. I might not be able to memorize what the correct numbers are associated to which correct brush name, but at least there's a reference source! It's a big upgrade from their first Sculpt and Blend set.
SHEDDING?
Only the 123 Flat top buffing brush looks like it would shed a few hairs. It hasn't shed yet but there are a few hairs that are sticking out already....All the other brushes look to be intact so far! None of them shed while I used them in application.
SOFTNESS?
These brushes are incredibly soft! With the exception of the 127 angled face shader brush (the face contouring brush!) and the 131 nose contour brush, all of the brushes are fluffy. The 127 and the 131 are firm, but if you run your finger through them, they are still considerably soft.
PERFORMANCE?

CONCLUSION?
I love these brushes! Personal faves are the 125 tapered contour brush, 126 precision blush brush, and the 128 small deluxe blending brush, but almost all the brushes are great! The angled contour brush and the nose contour brush need a little more testing, and the precision detailer brush seems like a random brush, but for about 20 bucks, you get 7 amazing face brushes! Try to grab these brushes when they're on a sale, which is almost always on bhcosmetics.com!
Let me know if these brushes are on your wishlist, or if you already have them, how do you like them?
