What I think:
Overall, I couldn't be more happy with this kit. I'm not the type of girl who brings my makeup with me everywhere I go (and when I do, it's mascara and lipgloss, nothing else) but this travel kit will really come in handy for someone who is often on the road, on holidays, etc.
I like that each brush comes with its own little plastic "protector" to protect it from dust and to help it keep its shape after each wash.
The flap is also a nice touch as I can easily imagine my brushes getting damaged in my handbag filled with random and useless things.
The size of the clutch is perfect, it's almost the size of my hand.

To be honest, the "convenient pouch" is not really convenient as you can barely store more than one item - and I mean a really small item.
Here, I tried to store my Covergirl NatureLuxe Foundation and Annabelle Zebra Pressed Bronzing Powder:
I couldn't zip the pouch. A mascara, eyeliner or lipgloss would do but don't try to bring your whole makeup bag.
As for the brushes themselves, they are all really soft and I haven't experienced lots of shedding (almost none, in fact). I'm not really keen on the fact that most of these brushes are made of animal hair, even though Annie from Sigma told me that they make sure animals are not harmed during the harvesting of their coat.

Recommend? yes, absolutely!
