I purchased this about 17 years ago. I haven't used it for about the last 10 years and have been storing it at home. The cheek brush (the thin one) still has the pink color of the blush that won't come off even after washing. The Givenchy logo on the handle of the face brush has disappeared. After washing them at home, I stored them for many years, so I recommend washing them before use after you purchase them.
