Christmas countdown: The Perfect Eight

“Make up made easy” is the tagline that accompanies The Perfect 8, a set of high quality make up brushes that are the perfect gift for the aspiring make up professional in your life – or pretty much any woman that wants an at home make up application that looks seriously good and lasts. The brainchild of Wendy Nowell-Usticke – the make up artist behind the Thin Lizzy mineral make up phenomenon and general all-round beauty expert - the set contains eight carefully selected brushes that let anyone apply their makeup like a professional. They come cleverly stored in a make up proof carry bag (how much do we love a wipe clean surface?) that means you can take The Perfect Eight with you everywhere, and the all black, zip up baby also has a detachable, handbag-sized pouch that is perfect for storing travel sizes of your favourite skincare for weekends away. 
Step by step instructions are also included to ensure that you use the right brush for the job every time, such as a synthetic one for the likes of primer and foundation (natural bristles will soak up pricey product) and the softest goat hair for blending that old favourite, the smoky eye. At $139.99 this is seriously good value for a kit of its calibre so if you’re in the market for a great set of brushes then get in there now!
