These awesome brushes is definitely a must have! I must say, I only purchased these brushes for its gorgeous girly pink color, but I am impressed that the quality has exceeded my expectation. The quality of these brushes are that of a high end brand. I have had MAC brushes and based from personal experience this Soho brushes is not only cute and pretty, they're very well made too! The bristles are soft and the way the metal and wood connects is very sturdy.
