Welcome to another blogmas post! Today’s post is going to be something a little bit different for me. I was re-watching some old videos from AmandaRachLee on Youtube and I discovered her brush pen showdown video again. In that video, she compares different brush pens based on various things and I thought I would take inspiration from that and create a blog post. I have 15 brush pens to share today and I am really excited to share this with you.
I will be comparing the brush pens based on 6 different topics. These are:
- brush size
- tip flexibility
- easiness to use
- colour selection
- bleeding/ghosting
- price
You may be wondering how I’ll be determining the likes of tip flexibility and easiness to use. For tip flexibility, I will be giving a rating between 1 and 5, with 1 being not flexible and 5 being very flexible. For easiness to use, I will also be giving a rating between 1 and 5, with 1 being very difficult to use and 5 being very easy to use.
As for pricing, to keep things consistent, I will be sharing the price of an individual pen. Without further ado, let’s get to it!
