This cute foundation brush by Manicare promises to give a streak free and flawless finish with precision and maximum control. I was a bit dubious as like most makeup artists, we have our preferred brushes or other tools but was happy to give this a go! The packaging was simple and informative making for easy selection in store. On first impression, i thought the brush appeared well made and a cute design. It has a tapered end that fits your hand well fir ease of use. The bristles are synthetic and quite dense but feel soft to touch. My usual go to brushes are similar design but larger and more dense so I was interested to try this and see if it worked well for me. I used the brush with a full coverage liquid foundation and my first impression was thta it was so easy to use and got in to all the small areas with ease. It was great for buffing and building up product and distributed the foundation evenly, leaving a flawless finish. I was pleasantly surprised with this brush and used it again with the same results. I would be keen to see how well it goes with different formulas, but think it will be a good little performer all round. It was also easy to clean and held it’s shape. I would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a dense foundation brush as its so easy to use. I would be interested to see how well the bristles hold out as shedding can be an issue long term.

Tips: Great if you’re a newbie and only use beauty blenders, it doesn’t soak up as much product and you still get a flawless finish. Buff in gently in circular motions to distrbute the product =)
Buffing brushes are one of my preferred ways of applying foundation and this brush was up to standard.
Stylistically, I prefer the look of some of the other buffing brushes I have used in the past. But in terms of the head of the brush (which is what matters the most) this brush was excellent.
The brush distributed foundation smoothly and evenly without streaking. Over time a few bristles have come out, but I've encountered that with other brushes as well.
What I like best about the Manicare range is that they are easily available from Farmers and can be sometimes purchased on special.
After using this for a week i would say this most definitely does what it says. The bristles are soft and it allows me to work all areas of my face. It buffs well and works great with both liquid and cream based foundations. The more i use it the better its getting!
Tips: Apply liquid foundation to the back of your hand and then dab the brush into your foundation and then buff onto the face.
