I recieved mine when purchasing a clinique foundation so naturally i tried the brush with it.
The brush was nice and soft and easy to use however a lot of product got inbetween the bristles and clogged the brush really quick. I also didn't quite get the flawless finish i desired.
I did find the brush was easy to clean though the inside fibres were still coated in foundation as i couldn't deep clean it properly.
I really liked the design of the brush though the clear acrylic handle and the soft bristles made for a nice 'fancy' feel of the brush.
I use this when doing my makeup, Excellent quality! Easy to wash. I use this to apply my foundation and I use a wet or dry beauty blender to press it more into my skin if needed. It's easy to use and goes smoothly around your eyes and nose etc. I also love using this brush for concealer and creme contour. I've had this brush for 8 years and it's still as nice a when I brought it. It hasn't lost 1 hair since I've owned it.
Tips: because of the shape you can use it for concealer or cream contour.
