A thread dedicated to Wayne Goss brushes and cosmetics line.

@xcicee, thanks for the update. I suspected he would be uncomfortable with monetary donations. His first Anniversary brush set was my first upgrade to Japanese brushes.  I had purchased two of his brushes before that release and it am still delighted with those brushes today. Am glad you enjoy yours, too! Let's hope he has a fantastic response to his launch with Cult Beauty and his makeup line release.

Another WG collaboration with Cult Beauty is coming - sign up via link in his IG bio. The inaugural beauty box contained Wayne's favourite products.

thanks for the heads up! Interested to see what it is!

My 2019 Holiday Brush arrived today! It's exquisite in design and the brush hairs are so very soft. Will Get Ready With Wayne using this brush tomorrow and be back with observations. I continue to be in awe of the brushes he designs.

Gorgeous! His brushes are so great.

MINE IS HERE!!!!!!! I can't believe they delivered on a Sunday, that's a first for me. Some size comparisons below - 00 Powder, Holiday 2019, WG Fan 15, Holiday 2017. 

It's so incredibly soft, no regrets for me at all. I like it much more than the 15 already which I rarely use. It's got much more substance than 15 but is softer and less densely packed than the 00 and provides less resistance. I will probably use it with highlighter and loose powder. I think this will be perfect with the Hourglass lighting powders, but I cant use it with those yet as I only have the powder in the holiday palette - this brush is much too big for that.

The brush looks beautiful,  @xcicee!

[xcicee]

@curlychiquita Thank you!! It's not my favorite brush to use yet but definitely the best looking one I own ❤️

[Kim888]

@xcicee stunning! thanks for the review on the brush and the size comparison !

[xcicee]

@Kim888  Thank you!! It feels amazing on the face. 

[TraceyEB]

@xcicee, I am ecstatic that you received your brush so quickly!! I can't wait to get mine tomorrow and re-read your description with it in my hand. I love the other brushes in your post, especially the Holiday 2017 brush, which is one of my absolute favourite brushes.There's nothing like it on the market! It's the one I reach for when using highly pigmented blushes (like Tom Ford Savage). Wayne's original 15 fan brush was my first fan and high end brush, and I used it for everything at the time. 🙂

[xcicee]

Yess I hope you like yours!! The Holiday 2017 one was my first (and only other) WG Holiday brush! I really love it for highlighter but I rarely use it because my sunscreen is very greasy and I'm afraid to damage the bristles. It diffuses pigmented powders perfectly though. I regret missing out on the 2018 brush.

The 2019 Holiday Brush is loaded on Beautylish and retails for $62.

Did anyone else see his YouTube video on how to use and see his “pull out eyeshadow with it” technique? Just wondering if anyone has suggestions on other brushes to do that technique with. I have a lot of face brushes already so I was going to pass on this but I really want to replicate that eyeshadow thing with something I own already.

[TraceyEB]

@xcicee, I saw the video and, in fact, Wayne demonstrated this technique before when he rolled out his original eye set. The video on his YT channel is titled Wayne Goss The Eye Set - Coming This April and dated March 21, 2014. He was using a domed eye brush to demonstrate the technique. I'll send a DM with the link. He also used this technique when introducing last year's holiday brush, which was also a type of fan brush. That video is titled The Wayne Goss Holiday Brush 2018 dated Dec 12, 2018 (about 3/4 of the way through the video).

@TraceyEB Thank you Tracey!! I'll go check it out now. Really appreciate it! 

[TraceyEB]

@xcicee, I added one more video to my original reply. 🙂

[TraceyEB]

Placed my order after some technical difficulties on Beautylish's website. Yay!!

@TraceyEB @blackkitty2014  btw I didn’t get the brush... I just told you guys to get them if you’re interested and I’m surprised it didn’t sell out!  I thought it’d be selling like hot cakes lol! Well it’s still on sale and I’m already thinking if I should get it while it’s still available 😂 

[TraceyEB]

@mezzotown88and @blackkitty2014, sometimes it takes the photos and reviewer videos before this type of brush sells out, and the price point isn't cheap. While I adore Wayne's original fan brush, I'm not enamoured with them in general. (I'm lazy and use the side or angle of whatever brush is in my hand for blush to apply highlighter). The one brush I wouldn't buy again is the big fan brush of Sonia G. It works really well, it's just oversized for my face. My WG holiday brush will be here on Monday and I can't wait.
