Review + measurements + comparison : ecoTOOLS tapered blush brush
Hi, today I'm going to review ecotools tapered blush brush.
Here I'm also gonna give you an idea about it's size.
I'll also compare this brush with few other brushes.
Lets get started.
Packaging :
It comes in a light green colored pouch, having leafy print.
I personally don't use this for any purpose.
Claims :
Handle :
Handle is made of bamboo.
It's narrow at the bottom and gradually widen towards up.
On one side, name of the brand (ecoTOOLS) is written.
On the other side, name of the brush (Tapered blush) is written. Here you can see, its already faded a bit.
Ferrule :
Ferrule is made of recycled aluminum.
The logo of ecotools is embossed over it.
Bristles :
The bristles are cruelty-free.
The bristles are brown colored, which gradually darken from bottoms to tips It's soft enough. Doesn't feel scratchy.
Size and Shape :
Its not too large, not too small.
For my face, its a perfect sized blush brush. It fits my cheek perfectly.
Here is a size comparison with my hand.
It's about 17 cm long. The brush itself is about 4 cm long.
The widest portion of bristles is about 4 cm.
It's gradually tapered.
It's about 3 cm thick.
It's moderately pinched.
Not too dense that it will deposit too much product.
Not too flimsy that it won't pick up sufficient amount of product.
To me, it picks up right amount of product as it claims.
The shape of the brush is very flexible, which is a huge plus for me. Here you can see, it changes it's shape. When you are applying blusher, it changes its shape according to your need.
You can use it as an angled blush brush by picking up blush on narrower side of the brush and sweep it along your cheek bone.
You can make it more pointed according to your need.
