Review title is Excessive handles, great brushes. [SEP] I'm no makeup pro but these brushes are soft and apply evenly. They are great at what they do! The only downside is the size. Can't take them anywhere when I travel because my suitcase space is precious. I bought a smaller two sided set for traveling that is easier to access.<br /><br />I'm not a fan of the case they give you with these brushes. Because of the size of the brushes, the case is huge. I'd prefer to have a rectangular case so I can decide how to set these brushes in my cabinet based on my shelving needs.<br /><br />Other than the size of the brushes and the lack of versatility in the case, these brushes do a great job!
