Hello!
I hope this is the right place for this question. I have purchased several of the Tom Ford makeup brushes. And they are really great. BUT, they are pretty expensive as far as makeup brushes go. The ones I bought are the mahogany wood handled with gold and white-ish hairs. I bought them from either Saks or Nieman Marcus. My question is I have seen these “Tom Ford sets of 12 makeup brushes” that appear to be the same brushes, for much, much less. They don’t have the individual # printed on the brush. And it seems they always come in the full set of 12, not listed separately. I have seen them listed for as little as $70 for the full set of 12. And as much as $300. Usually in the description it says “made in China”. I don’t think any TF products are “made in China” but I could be wrong. The full set of the ones you buy from the department stores would run appx $875, purchased individually. I know there is another TF set called the Soleil set. That set has white handles and there are only 3 or 4 brushes. So this is different. But what is the deal with those other mahogany brown handled brushes that appear to be the same for so much less? Are they counterfeit? Or just a less expensive line? Or are they the same thing and am I just missing out on a good deal? Thanks so much!!
