I love this brushThese stubby brushes are the bomb! Blend out makeup really well on drier skin and also good for self tan application on hands. Love them great purchase and valueI like the brush, but wouldn’t describe it as an allover face brush. The bristles are a little short & hard for that, they seem to hold too much product. Ok for stippling BB cream, contour, highlighter, etc. Not so much for things needing a precise lighter application, like concealer, face powder or blush.It's a nice travel brush but for everyday use it's a no go . It's small but its a good brush . But it would be a great little brush for vacation or just to do touch up .They are amazing!!! Just like the picture! Perfect For foundation!!!It’s compact but I was hoping for it to be softer and it’s too hard.Love these short chubby kabuki brushes. The handles are short enough for your travel makeup bag and the short bristles of the brush are great for mineral cosmetics. Prefer these to kabuki's with normal length bristles. The gold ones I ordered (bought more in the black and silver to include with my makeup kits), I ended up giving to my niece and sister-in-law for Valentine's day along with some of my makeup samples. I am including a photo of my sister-in-law, Michelle, who used one of these brushes to apply my Pearl Creek Cosmetics for this modeling photo she took for me.This brush is probably the best one I have ever bought. Very soft. Will buy again.
