Good Evening!
So I recently ordered a brush set from Apothica.com using my gift card
that was given to me by my sponsor.
I decided I wanted to check out the brush set from Napoleon Perdis from their Swept Away Holiday 2010 Collection. I was going to buy it when I went to their Concept Store but it is an item only available online.
Since I saw they had it on Apothica I decided to just go ahead and get so I can share my thoughts with you guys. They have two colors sets. Cobalt and Teal. I choose Teal.
Price:
Napoleon Perdis Online: $39.50
Apothica: $47.40
Apothica does do price matching but I didn't even know till my package came this morning. They only allow up to 5 days of Price Matching.. which I don't really like. They should really extend this
Outside Packaging.

This is an 8 Piece Travel Size Brush Set.
Made with both Natural and Synthetic material.
Contains:
- 1 Face Brush
- 1 Foundation Brush
- 1 Shadow Brush
- 1 Crease Brush
- 1 Smudge Liner Brush
- 1 Angled Liner Brush
- 1 Mascara Brush
- 1 Sponge Applicator
On Apothica they did NOT list that this is a Travel Size Brush set. Which is definitely not good.
Comparison to a Sigma Travel Brush. The only difference would be the Sigma Brushes have a longer handle.
I realized I forgot to take a photo of the eyeliner brush! Sorry.
Pros:
+Easy to store, Good for traveling
+Nice Packaging
+Brush hairs are tightly packed.
+Soft brushes
+Good starter set.
+Fast Shipping
Cons
+Way too pricey.
The set was originally around $70. But now it is reduced to $47 on Apothica which is still way
too much in my opinion for a travel brush kit though I suppose your paying for the name.
4/5
Would I recommend this to anyone?
If you really like Napoleon Perdis products, or prefer higher in brand products this is great for you.
Or even looking for a really nice gift for a coworker/friend.
If your on a budget I would suggest ECO-TOOLS! Those are great and a set is like $10.99
They are basically my main set of tools.
