I'm so excited for tomorrow-. I ordered Danessa Myricks latest palette along with the old Lightwork V palette and it's here! Just gotta pick it up. I really can't wait. I need a fast forward button..
In the meantime- I have a highlighter brush I want to review. Even though I'm not into highlighter- I love to buy highlighter brushes. I don't know what my problem is. Actually, I'm hoping that now that I acknowledged it's a problem- I'll fix the problem. I guess we shall see.
Omnia claims:
Get the perfect diffused glow or apply a subtle hint of blush with this uniquely shaped face brush. The plush hair flares out at the top for perfect coverage and the natural fibers can pick up and deposit even micro shimmers with ease.
OMNIA® GOLD is the next-generation of professional makeup brushes. Each brush uses only the finest quality natural hair. This hair is meticulously selected and incredibly soft while still maintaining the density needed to pick up and deposit product with accuracy and precision. Every brush is handcrafted to perfection, creating the finest brush possible, exceeding all expectations.
I am running out of Omnia Brushes to review. And I don't plan on picking up more. Maybe unless they go on deep discount. I don't like the gold handle color nor the material. It's that "sticky, grippy" feeling material which I have really come to hate. It never ages well. And it's worn off a few of my brushes and I haven't had them long enough for them to be doing that. Not to mention, I expect more from a "pro" brand.
I don't have the brushes and they look fine for the most part- if you buy them on sale you can't beat the price.
But this is one I do wish I didn't buy.
It doesn't pick up highlighter the way I want it to. I don't know if it's because I use it mainly with MAC Gold Deposit but it picks up random sparkles and then you place it on or brush it on and it just goes on very scattered. Everything is scattered and it's hard to see the effect. I think this brush just doesn't offer the control that I want.
The bristles are very soft though. I love the way it feels. And the bristles fan out. I think I prefer a brush that tapers to a point or tapers in rather than this shape for highlighter. It's the control thing. This might be a great brush to use with a different texture of highlighter and if I find it to be so, I'll definitely come back and update.
I've tried it for powder and blush and always felt I had brushes that can do the job better.
It's not my favorite brush. You could probably say I really don't like it much. If it disappeared from my collection I wouldn't be sad about it.
