surprisingly good brushes [SEP] these brushes turned out much better than i would expected i do not need the fine line brushes i gave them to my niece all the rest i have put to use for watercolor mixed media they have been performing great they hold their shape have no shedding the brush tips aside from the color staining look almost as good as new even though i have been using them daily for a while nowi did not expect cheap nail brushes like this to work this good i have ordered very expensive so called kolinsky brushes that turned out to be garbage obviously not kolinsky this brand does not put on a horse pony show the brushes are great i am glad i took a chance on them
