Winstonia-Kolinsky Sable Brushes
Press Sample
Hello loves! We are half way through the week! Who is looking forward to the Holiday weekend?! I know I am! The Mr. starts vacation on Friday and depending on how I feel we are hoping to meet up with my sister and her family on Saturday for some 4th of July festivities, like fireworks! Speaking of fireworks, today I have a firework mani to share with you that I did using a couple Winstonia paint brushes!
I was sent the Winstonia Kolinsky Sable Brush #000 as well as the Winstonia Kolinsky Sable Brush #0000. The two smallest art brushes that Winstonia currently sells. I have had my eyes on these babies for awhile so I was extremely thrilled to be offered the chance to review them and I was not disappointed!
#0000 is the short bristled brush on the left of the image above. Bristle length: 4 mm / 0.157 inch
Total length (including cap): 15.8 mm / 6.22 inches.
#000 is the slightly longer bristled brush on the right. Bristle length: 6 mm / 0.236 inch
Total length (including cap): 15.8 mm / 6.22 inches
Both brushes are made from finest quality Kolinsky hair.

These are the brushes that I use too. I actually trimmed the amount of bristles down on my #000 brush, and now it's my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely getting these brushes - I've been wondering how they work for nail art. :)
ReplyDeleteThose brushes look awesome, and I love all the art you did with them!
ReplyDeleteI can't free hand so I can't comment the brushes but I adore your first mani and the patriotic gradient covered in glitters!
ReplyDeleteI can't freehand to save my life. THese look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSuch fantastic manis and review. Love all the nail arts.
ReplyDeleteI like that these brushes come with a cap to protect the bristles. I've had my eye on them for a while now, but have yet to pick them up. On your fireworks mani I love how you sponged a little polish on underneath to give them a glowing effect. That was very creative!
ReplyDeleteI am so tempted by those brushes! I love all of your nail arts too :-)
ReplyDeleteI have been on the hunt for the perfect brushes for a while now and have bookmarked this review for when I place my order!!! I love the looks you created with these, especially the patriotic one!!
