If you ask someone who owns a lip balm and a pressed powder on her kikay kit she may not spot the difference between these two retractable kabuki brushes but it's a whole new ball game if you ask a make-up enthusiast like *cough* moi!

Landmark's Retractable Kabuki Brush

Charm Deluxe Retractable Pink Kabuki Brush



Let's review landmark's kabuki first. I just recently purchased this synthetic brush when I saw it in the beauty stand at Landmark Trinoma and I just fell in love with it!

Pros

* Affordable!!! Priced at 129 Php.

* Dense, smooth and gives you good control

* Easy to wash and dry! I washed them both and this one dried first.

* No fall out! It did not lose it's shape either. A lot of cheap brushes tend to do so after washing.

Cons

* It has a weird smell even after washing. I have only washed this once though so I'm hoping the smell will be gone next bath time haha

* The price tag won't come off!! I had to get a scotch tape to remove it

Now, on to Charm Luxe Kabuki, the Luxe Retractable Kabuki is made of synthetic, vegan hair.

Pros

* glides like velvet no matter how much you buff it on your skin!

* Dense, smooth and give you good control

* Unscented

* Did not bleed or lost it shape after washing

Cons

* Nothing really other than it takes more time to dry compare to other kabuki brushes.


Final Verdict:
SAVE!!! Actually both are definitely good buys but you can save a few bucks if you go for Landmark's Retractable Kabuki Brush!!
