I find the brush itself sturdy, well-constructed and made of dense, soft bristles. The length of the brush is perfect for me, not too short and not too long. The handle is long enough to grip and control when applying foundation. The size of this foundation brush is slightly smaller than what I am used to use.
The ferrule (the metal part) is secured firmly onto the handle and the bristles are neatly firmly nestled into the ferrule as well. The handle feels smooth and nice in my hand. I would love if the bristles are a bit longer, it would feel softer on my skin. Don’t get me wrong, the bristles are already soft and gentle on my skin.
I am the one who always use flat brushes to apply foundation. I always end up getting a precise, perfect airbrushed look. That is the different when you use a makeup sponge and a brush to apply your foundation. Using a foundation brush changes the makeup game completely. This angled brush allows access to all the areas on my face, even the nose area.
The brush does not leave brush mark lines or edges on my skin which is amazing! It smooths foundation out beautifully without having to use lot of foundation. The brush does not soak up lot of foundation, it stays on the end of the bristles.
I have used this brush a different foundations from light formula ones to thick formulas. The brush has worked brilliant with any foundation, creating a beautiful flawless look.
I find the price very affordable, good size brush easy to carry around. The brush is of good quality, especially for the price. It has been washed twice and I have not seen any shedding. I would definitely repurchase and highly recommend this to everyone.
I got this brush in one of the original BR beauty boxes. It’s definitely not an item I would purchase myself. I wear usually BB cream or tinted moisturiser so I prefer to use my fingers as I think it applied better that way. The one time I did use this for foundation, I found it made the foundation streaky which meant it actually took me longer to apply. What I do use this for is for applying face masks and it’s brilliant for that - especially for chunky face masks like Lush do. No more mess! It rinses out easily and dries quickly. I’ll definitely keep using it for that purpose.
