    Like many other reviewers, I purchased this brush at my local CCO (this review is a bit delayed; I think I purchased it in April 2010). I feel that it has been discontinued due to the fact that...

    I like this brush for powders or minerals. It makes application flawless. A little pricey but worth it.

    I bought this brush at a CCO. It smelled like a dead rat had died in it. Simply disgusting. I had washed it with brush cleaner no less than 10 times. I looked up on youtube and Enkore had a...

    I, too, purchased this brush at a CCO (and that's why it gets a good price rating). I was never able to apply Studio Fix Powder Foundation before getting this brush, so I would highly recommend it...

    This is one of my favorite brushes from MAC. It is limited edition but some stores may still carry this, as well as the CCO's. It is super soft and it is amazing at buffing out powder foundation....

    This is LE and the only place you may find it is at a CCO. I had this brush for over 2 years and it really has splayed and has always shed. This was made to buff in MMU which it does an okay job....

    The bristles on this brush began to fall apart upon the initial wash. They also felt too harsh for applying makeup. This brush went back to the store.

    Great brush - I use it for mineralized skin finish natural. It provides more coverage than the 184(?) - MAC round buki brush. Wish it wasn't a limited edition.

    I just got this from nordstroms...its a very stumpy flat brush. I use it as a powder brush and its very soft, but it keeps shedding on me when I use it.
