Lancome Deluxe Brush Set & Fashion Case (2009): Purple Love

Following its limited-edition Declaring Indigo brush set which updated the badger-brush look by dying part of the brush in a beautiful dusty royal blue, Lancôme just released another, new tantalizing set called the Deluxe Brush Set & Fashion Case. This time it is a travel-sized set and the by now 5 brushes (but minus the mineral powder brush) are dyed a bishop bejeweled purple hue and housed in a case adorned with two matching cabochons to flash a little glam when you open it...

According to the Lancôme website, "Each is made of the highest quality bristles for professional application," and all are "precision-crafted."

The set includes:

"Foundation Brush #2 - The must-have brush for flawlessly applying any foundation.

Powder Brush #1 - The pro for sheer, smooth, naturally flawless powder application.

Precision Shadow Brush #12 - The ideal partner for all Lancôme eye shadows.

Dual Ended Brush #18 - At one end: the flat, fine edge brush precisely applies shadow, wet or dry, to create a sharp eye lining result. At the other end: the shadow brush.

Blending Shadow Brush #17 - For the most precise eye shadow application. It allows you to smudge shades into eye corners for the smokiest looks."

The set retails for $59 and is said to be a $161 product value.

The Declaring Indigo set is sold out as far as I can tell, so this is your chance if you missed out on the first!

Available at Neiman Marcus and Lancôme USA.
