    Let me start out by saying that this brush is reasonably good, and I do reach for it nearly every time I apply makeup. However I personally find the bristles to be just a tad too long and that can...

    I had this brush for 5 years now and I brought it at the MAC store. It has held up really well and the bristles are very soft and does not shed. I like that this is made in Japan and the brush has...

    It is a good brush. Many people use it for foundation application. I find it too time consuming. For this purpose 187 works just fine for me. 188 I would use for powder or very thin liquid...
