Airbrush
It's my go to brush. Vibes an airbrushed look if you don't layer and put makeup on too heavy. Bristles are light, and soft to the face.

Great for blending!
I like to use this brush for powder and to melt my blush, contour, and brozer into my foundation.

Awesome brush
I got this while I was in college, at least 3.5 years ago. It's still in great shape. Love the way it feels and it's very versatile, too.

Foundation Brush
This is the only foundation tool that blends my makeup perfectly. I have tried close to ten other types and this is so perfect I’ll never use anything else.

Best kabuki brush
Love this brush, and always travel with it since it doesn’t have a full handle. I use this for powder or bronzer and it applied nicely and has a soft feel. Easy to wash too. I also use this to apply self tanner to my face and hands, and it applies so evenly and comes out great every time.

good
i like it. it works really well for powder applications (powder foundation for me) and i’ve used it for awhile. not easy to store imo but i don’t mind it. and it’s easy to use, not scratchy—if anyone says it is, (a) it probs needs cleaning, or (b) they’re being too rough with it but genuinely it isn’t scratchy.

Unbelievable
I have a very expensive brand name Kabuki brush and this little $7 gem SMOKES it. It's soft, but durable. HUGE expansion upon opening. Excellent for multiple shades of custom powdering layers and bronzers. Totally blown away.

Wouldn't recommend.
The brush genuinely hurt to use. Like my face would be red after use, it didn't work at all.
