"As a makeup artist, I'm a firm believer in the difference that a beautiful makeup brush can make and how refined your application can be," says Gucci holding up the limited-edition Brush Collection, back by popular demand this holiday season. The new 8-piece arsenal has been expanded to include her secret weapon tool—the Spot Check Brush—in addition to seven curated essentials for effortless blending and definition.

Handcrafted by the oldest brush makers in the world and made from sustainably-sourced birchwood and cruelty-free nylon bristles, every detail was considered when designing the luxurious set : Handles are shorter for more control during application, while pristine ivory bristles let you know when it's time for a good brush cleaning. The one exception is the Lip Brush, which is crafted with a dark tip to work well with vibrant, highly pigmented shades, like those tucked inside the Lip Suede palettes.

The 8-piece wardrobe comes together in a matte black paperboard canister that’s chic enough to please even the trickiest friend or family member. Watch the full video now to learn how Gucci uses each tool - and which product she pairs it with for the most flawless makeup application. 

The Brush Collection is available on Westman-Atelier.com and includes:
