Wayne Goss Thread | Brushes and Cosmetics

[TraceyEB]

A thread dedicated to Wayne Goss brushes and cosmetics line.

@TraceyEB I want so many of the shades of lipstick and lip glosses.  Do you have any insight into the sheerness or the longevity of the wear?

[TraceyEB]

@greeneyedgirl107, I chose mostly darker shades (Zinnia, Carnation, Orchid, and Lily) - they all provide opaque coverage with two passes. The formulation is creamy, with normal wear time though they do come off when you eat. I don't know if the lighter shades are more sheer.

@TraceyEB Thanks for the insight! 🙂

Wayne has posted a video introducing his Goss Edit collection - brushes designed to address common challenges people have applying their makeup. Unique shapes, especially the smaller brushes.

Update 5/24: Per Sonia G., brush handles are hard maple wood, bristles are saikoho goat except for the brush 7, which is a mix of saikoho goat and synthetic PBT bristles. 

Launch is now Wednesday, May 26 at 10 a.m. PST; price: $225. The set is loaded onto Beautylish's website.

@TraceyEB  After watching Wayne's video, studying photos of these brushes, and comparing them to all the existing brushes in my collection, there's only one must-have for me. So: 

If anyone buys this set for a specific brush or two and doesn't want number 4, please tag or message me! Or hey, tag me in the Trade Thread 2021 . 🙂 

I wonder if any of these will appear as individually sold brushes later this year, perhaps with standard handles. Hmm. 

[TraceyEB]

@WinglessOne, fingers crossed the 04 brush comes your way sooner than later! I'm curious to compare the 04 brush to the Small Artist Brush.

[WinglessOne]

@TraceyEB  I'm also curious about that. I don't have any of the Artist brushes, but I've considered buying the Small a few times. Those brushes are grey squirrel, so they'd feel better on my skin than these newer saikoho goat brushes. But the goat brush can probably handle cream and liquid products. It'll be interesting to see some comparisons of these new Edit Collection brushes to the 3 Artist brushes. 

[TraceyEB]

@WinglessOne, here's what Sonia G. wrote comparing the Small Artist Brush to the Edit 04.

[WinglessOne]

Oh good, I've been waiting for Sonia to talk about these on her blog! She always does fantastic comparisons. Thanks @TraceyEB , I'm off to read the whole thing now! 

[TraceyEB]

@WinglessOne, I have the Artist brushes so can compare when the Edit Collection arrives. I suspect it is smaller so there is more control when using on the eyes. You can do an eyelook with the Small Artist brush and I love the candlestick design, which I find helpful on my hooded eyes though the brush is a hint large. I do wish some of the new brushes had some grey squirrel or dyed goat, like his original Anniversary Set.

Ok, i need to try #5 😍

[Samtian]

Well number 5 it is!

[TraceyEB]

@Samtian, I'll take two! 😂

[danielledanielle]

I was lukewarm until he started talking about the #7.  I need that brush.

[TraceyEB]

@danielledanielle, #7 is definitely a unique brush! Caught my eye, too!

[aviscardi]

i liked 1 or 2 of the eye brushes - though i don't care for the handles. I was watching his video and then i saw a comment on beautylish ig - where someone said the price was $225 and sold as a set so i stopped watching lol - also did he mention natural or synthetic?!. I am holding out for SG new brushes and whenever she finally restocks the face one and maybe master face so will save my coin. 🙂

[TraceyEB]

@aviscardi, hi, Sonia G posted that brushes are made of saikoho goat except for the brush 7, which is a mix of saikoho goat and synthetic PBT bristles.

[TraceyEB]

@aviscardi, the hair type wasn't mentioned though I expect it is goat hair. Hope that gets clarified. A $225 price is about what I would expect for a WG set with face and eye brushes though a lot to drop for a launch out of the blue!  Individual brushes tend to follow set releases, and you'll have seen the 1-2 brushes in action to see if you still want them. Sonia's new brushes caught me by surprise! The Face One is probably my favourite brush from Sonia's line.

[TraceyEB]

The Goss Edit Collection of brushes is launching soon. Signup via Wayne's or Beautylish's IG. Cannot wait to see what Wayne has designed!

 

[TraceyEB]

Beautylish has begun contacting people for pre-orders. I ordered the Deep Copper palette as I need red tone in my bronzers. Can't wait for it to arrive!!

[TraceyEB]

Below are swatches from Mel Thompson's video applying the three Wayne Goss Radiance Boosting Face Palettes. The first 2 swatches are applied using WG's Airbrush and the second set using a denser brush. She did this to emphasize the shade differences that occur from using different brushes, which she also demonstrates in her video.
