Pop culture beauty and fashion brand Her Universe recently launched a Little Mermaid makeup brush set to appease the Disney character's avid fandom, with each one shaped like the luxurious forks the young mermaid attempts to comb her hair with when she first becomes human.
A total of four brushes comprise the set, which includes two small eyeshadow brushes, a powder brush, and a lipstick applicator. The synthetic brush hairs are colored a vivid hue of purple to balance out the rhinestone-enhanced handles. In reference to what the Little Mermaid calls the forks, the launch is dubbed the 'Dinglehopper Makeup Brush Set."
The set is currently available at Hot Topic for $27, both online and in-store.
