Whether you’re transforming into a terrifying zombie, a fantasy creature, or just adding detail to your costume makeup, these brushes deliver precision, comfort, and stunning results.
This is not your average kids’ brush set. Each tool is thoughtfully made with soft synthetic bristles, ergonomic wooden handles, and durable ferrules to give artists—young and old—the control they need for intricate designs and long painting sessions.
🎨 What’s Included in the Set?
The Nicpro set includes 7 high-quality brushes in a variety of shapes and sizes:
Liner #00 – Ideal for fine lines, whiskers, and spider webs
Round #2 & #4 – Great for outlines and smooth curves

🧡 Why We Like This Product (Reviewed by the YPC Team)
“At YPC, we tested these brushes during our Halloween events. The liner brush was amazing for spider web details, and the angled brush helped create some seriously cool witch cheekbones. The handles are comfy—even during back-to-back face painting sessions. Plus, the pastel colours just made them feel a bit special, like something you’d actually want to show off in your kit.”
