Artis Oval Brushes | Worth the $$ for Mature Skin?

I got myself an early birthday present in New York and splurged on a couple of Artis Oval Brushes! I’m putting them to the test to see if they live up to the hype and are worth the price…

Hi Ang
I started adopting you skin skedule over 18 months ago I am an avid follower of you tips and reviews. Thank you for your commitment and work – you have made a real difference in my life.. While I’m not that interested personally in looking young it’s essential to look my best for my work – and by following your tips I have really pulled back the years.

Looking at least 10 years younger is my new motto

One thing I would say as someone who does not live in the USA. MANY Of the products you recommend are very hard to source internationally. Olay is a winner but products like cerevue have just become available to me via IHERB this month. IHERB is my saviour for you products and they have an affiliate program so why don’t you also add their links so we can support you!

Okay, I broke down and bought the 5 piece set from Saks Fifth Avenue. We shall see how they work. I have every Bobbi Brown brush ever made, but I have never been happy about how my foundation looks. If they don’t work I’ll take them back. Thanks for the advice. BTW, I love your site! Very helpful since I turned the big”50″ last year!

Hi Angie, I have owned the Artis brushes for several months. I enjoy using them but find cleaning them to be more challenging than the company indicates. I was under the impression you could use the same brush and switch from applying liquid foundation to applying powder blush with a few swipes across the microfiber cleaning pad….not so much 🙁 I purchased the cleaner and pad but do not feel that they do an adequate job. I have tried different cleaning methods that I found on the Internet but still have not found one that I am truly satisfied with. Could you talk about your cleaning method?

  Hi Nicolette. FWIW, I’ve had an Artis set (mirror) for almost a year. In my experience the cleaning foam works much better on powders. It does not remove foundation or concealer residue well. I use philosophy’s purity to clean the brushes I use with creams or liquids. I don’t soak them, just put a bit of cleanser on my hand and swish the brush in the cleanser, then swish in water (not going all the way up to where the fibers attach to the brush), pat/blot dry (I use a white microfiber towel to confirm the makeup residue is gone) then set the brushes fibers down over the sink to dry. Most are dry the next morning except the oval 8 (that’s the biggest one I have, I don’t have the 7).
