I've used this for about a year almost daily for applying mmu from a compact. It is superior for it's softness, it's density and because it applies product evenly across face contours (the nose...

I own over 30 brushes and this has been my favorite since I got it 7 months ago. It's soft (sooo much better than the BE brushes), but dense enough to give me even coverage with my mineral...

I re-read all of the reviews because I'm not getting the same superb results as the previous reviewers so I'm thinking it's just me. The texture of this brush is indeed sublime--soft and...

This brush really is unlike any other makeup brush I have ever encountered. It is incredibly dense and feels like you're applying your foundation with a big pouf of high quality velvet. The...

This is a must-have for applying Alima foundation. I've been using a skunk brush to apply it and liking it well enough- but with the raves and the 15% sale on this brush, I had to try it. Now I...

Bought this brush after starting with the BE kabuki and the Jane Iredale Handi. The Jane Iredale handi is a lovely brush, but it doesn't even compare to the Alima #25. It is longer than the JI...

I purchased the 'old' style #25 a few months ago, just before it was updated. Its an absolutely wonderful brush to use - mineral make-up goes on very smoothly, and the bursh provides a light and...

I have the older version of the brush. The brush head is thick and plush. It works extremely well with mineral powders. My only complaint is that it takes over a day to dry (which I understand,...

Well worth every bit of the hype IMO. Beautifully-cut, super-soft, shed-free bristles in a very dense, compact medium-sized head that is perfectly designed for almost flawless application of Alima...

I really like this foundation brush. I would have given it 5 lippies but I'm taking one off for the size. I really wish the brush head was a bit bigger for more coverage. Otherwise, the brush is...

Okay, I bought into the hype and this was 100% worth it! I had been applying my Alima foundation with a MAC 187 brush, which worked pretty well but occasionally gave me a chalky finish. I can see...

What a lovely, soft, dense brush! It feels as velvety soft as a kitten's paw and works wonderfully for applying mineral foundation. I was using the Kabuki brush in my bare escentuals starter kit,...

This has got to be the best $25 (plus s&h) I have ever spent. I tried the Bare Esentuals handy buki brush and it doesn't hold a candle to this brush. It is the softest brush that has ever touched...

I think I'm the only girl who doesn't get this brush. Am I doing something wrong? In my opinion, it's TOO dense - it's so thick it feels like it grabs onto my face and pulls it along, and no matter...
