It's definitely a luxury price point. I saw it in person, and it is actually a smaller travel size. He also launched a gorgeous leather carrying case for his regular size brushes (that costs about $650.00 or so). He's also launching 50 more Lips & Boys lipsticks soon (25 repromotes and 25 new shades).
