Ladies and gentlemen, the time has FINALLY come. After many (agonizing) months of teasers, Storybook Cosmetics has finally released its highly anticipated black rose makeup brushes [1]! [Insert squeals and maybe even a few happy tears here.]
To refresh your memory, Storybook Cosmetics started selling the dreamiest makeup brushes that looked just like the enchanted rose [2] from Beauty and the Beast right around the time of the movie's premiere earlier this year. And now that Halloween [3] is quickly approaching, the brand decided it was the perfect time to release a darker, spookier version of the original ones (which are still available online [4], BTW!).
These new brushes have matte black handles and bristles with crimson-red bristle ends, making for an edgy beauty accessory that even yellow-dress-donning Belle would totally splurge on. They come in a set of four (including a tapered highlighting brush, angled contour/blush brush, flat-top powder brush, and dome-top powder brush), and the whole "bouquet" costs $55. Plus, it comes packaged in a custom black rose pouch with an Edgar Allan Poe quote on the side. How cool!
It's unclear how long these limited-edition beauties will be available for purchase, but we're predicting a quick sellout. Read on for an up-close look at these gloriously edgy makeup brushes, and be sure to snag your own set from the Storybook Cosmetics website if you so please.
