The brushes are supplied as shown. The large brush are great, one is a little easier tied the other determine what works well for Foundation and liquid makeup. A star I draw from, as the 4 smaller brushes are not really small. For eye shadow, they are too big. One of them I'm going to take to apply concealer, the other three do not know yet. When unpacking they smell really funny what verfkliegt wash after once. The brushes are soft and well bound, have to grants lost no hair and otherwise make a good impression. Too bad that the smaller brushes are not so small as one thinks.
