    I really like this brush. Yes, like any other thing in life, you do have to learn technique with this brush, because its density will make mistakes more apparent. However the dense springy-ness...

    For a long time I thought I would hate this brush, boy was I wrong! I think my hesitance stemmed from the fact that I had been using simple and cheap imitations from drug stores and Sally's. But...

    I love my foundation brush, I use it every day and take care of it with regular washings and reshaping so nothing ever happens to it:) I also agree with the advice on using it in a patting motion....

    This was my first makeup brush and I love it as much now as I did when I first bought it a few years ago. Yes, it's true that it's very dense and springy and that may not be something that some...

    Hmmm There are days when I LOVE this brush and days when I HATE it. To me it feels flippy, like rubbery, you pull at the bristles and they feel like they are boiingy against your skin if that...

    I really enjoy using this brush with my Studio Tech. I find that that the best technique in terms of application is to "pat" on the foundation compared to brushing it on because then the...

    I love it! It gives a nice smooth, flawless coverage and barely gets streaky, if it does i just fix that with my fingers. This is one of my fave foundation brushes ever. It's very very soft and the...

    This type of foundation brush has been superseded by the stippling brush IMHO. A streaky finish is very difficult to avoid, because the brush is so tight and the bristles are so thick. The quality...

    Just like every other foundation brush, except that it's much more expensive. You have to be careful not to leave stripes all over you face. I've got also the Sephora one that it's about half the...
