Ruby Hammer’s magnetic makeup brushes are perfect for saving space when travelling (Image: Ruby Hammer)When it comes to holiday packing, we all crave more space. Whether you’re an over-packer or just cautious about exceeding your luggage weight limit, deciding what’s essential and what can be left behind is often a major stressor. Your beauty products present another challenge, particularly your tools. While you might want to bring your usual collection of top-notch makeup brushes, they’re undeniably bulky and can consume valuable space in your toiletries bag. Enter Ruby Hammer’s Magnetic Makeup Brush Set 01 and 02, £50, offering all the brushes needed for a full face in one compact, travel-friendly package.

The brush heads are easy to use; simply choose the one you need and snap it onto the wand to create a full-size makeup brush, eliminating the need for those tiny, hard-to-hold brushes typically found in travel makeup brush kits. Three brush heads merge to form a single full-size brush, meaning you get six different brushes that occupy the same space as two standard makeup brushes. The six brush heads have intentionally been left unnamed, allowing you to experiment with their uses, reports the Mirror.

Founder Ruby Hammer shared her philosophy on makeup tools, saying: “I purposely didn’t name the brushes on the pack, as an artist I play with brushes so what may be labelled as a lip brush could be perfect for eyes. You have to experiment. A great example is that I love using the fine liner for concealer. The precise point allows you to strategically camouflage blemishes, applying only to the areas that you want covering, rather than swiping across the face.” The collection boasts a variety of brushes including: Tapered Brush – versatile for powder or cream textures, eyeshadows or concealers, suitable for both eye and face products Smudge Brush – great for blending on eyes or lips, and for applying colour close to the lash line Angled Brush – designed for precision in eyebrow filling and eyeliner application Spoolie Brush – ideal for brow grooming and mascara application Fine Liner Brush – compatible with gel, liquid, or cream liners, and also for pinpoint concealer application Square Brush – perfect for defining and colouring lips with precision.

For those looking to expand their toolkit or tailor a more personal set, individual brush heads are available for £12 each from the Ruby Hammer website. Additionally, Trinny London, the brand from beauty and fashion expert Trinny Woodall, has launched its own travel brush collection. The 3-in-1 T Kit, priced at £28, is a compact makeup brush set that includes three individual brush heads. These can be clicked together to form your own travel-sized makeup brush. The set includes lip, shade and liner brushes, allowing you to customise your makeup application. Now, you can ditch the multiple makeup brushes at home, freeing up more space for the essentials like an extra lipstick or eyeshadow palette!Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
