e.l.f Kabuki Face Brush

This was probably one of my first make up brushes, I bought it about 2 years ago when my interest in make up started to take off. I never really expected too much of this brush, but for the price its great! The bristles are super soft and packed really dense which makes applying powder a breeze. I washed this brush countless times and have never had a problem with shedding. The barrel is metal too which is great I had expect it to be plastic but the quality does surpass the price. Overall I love e.l.f brushes in general and I believe this one comes in 2 different sizes (I use the smaller one). I just use mine for setting my foundation and find that it works great doesn't leave my powder looking cakey.

I use this for pressed powder, and it is amazing, especially for the price! It picks up the perfect amount of product so the product doesn't look too powdery. It is so soft and easy to clean with just warm soapy water! I have started using this everyday and have no complaints! I have experienced no shedding with this brush!

For the price, this is a fabulous powder brush!

It is full, soft and fluffy and makes brushing on powder a breeze. I used this largely for powder foundation (as I am not a fan of makeup sponges). It allows for a slow build up of coverage, so you aren't stuck with heavy coverage with the first brush. It is also great a blending blush/bronzer.

It size makes it amazing for travelling or in the handbag. I would highly recommend this brush if you are looking for a low cost, high quality alternative!

I think I may use this a bit differently but it is my favourite brush for that purpose. I use this as a tanning brush for my hands, feet and face. It works so much better than a mitt for these areas and the brush is fantastic for buffing an even coat on those awkward places ensuring a natural covering! It is soft and fluffy and is perfect for buffing, if you have difficulty tanning your hands or feet, definitly give this a go. It is my holy grail and its easy to keep clean and it keeps its softness!

I purchased a range of ELF brushes, including the awful bristley and sharp foundation brush which I hate... This kabuki though- I have bought two more (one for blending my self tan, and one for my makeup bag on the go)

I was a little apprehensive washing it like my other more expensive brushes, thinking for the price it would fall apart, or lose fibres however this hasn't been the case at all. It has retained it's shape and cleans/dries beautifully. It is my one real multipurpose brush.

This is my absolute favourite little brush for applying pressed powder. Its super thick and dense and does a great job at applying product evenly. I have had mine for well over a year now and its still in perfect condition. It washes up nicely and as far as I remember it hasn't shed at all. Plus, its so cheap! I got this in the US for about $3 but I've seen them in Kmart here for around $10-15 dollars.

Also, because it is so thick and dense, you don't get a ton of product lost up in the bristles like you do with some brushes - when I wash it, hardly any left over product comes out of it.

e.l.f is one of those brands that either does great products or complete flops. This one is one of the greats.

The e.l.f Kabuki Face brush is a lovely soft kabuki brush that is gentle on the face and great for buffing out powder. I use it for pressed or loose powder on my face. It distributes the powder evenly and smoothly and buffs it out just as well.

The bristles on the brush are synthetic, which is fairly standard and generally what I prefer to use. They are easy to wash; I use something like baby shampoo and feel as good as new afterwards.

What I also like about the kabuki style is that without the long handle it is an easy brush to fit in my handbag or travel bag.

I've not tried blending out slef-tan with it, but after reading this I may have to try it.

A great brush, affordable with the results you'd expect.

This is my favourite brush for all over powder application. It is my softest elf brush and has a great amount of density for a cheap brush.

I bought mine of I herb.

It sheds a little but hardly compared to a few of my other elf brushes (I find elf brushes to be a bit hit or miss)

Also pretty sure it is the softest brush I own

Overall I definitly would recommend

This brush is my favourite makeup brush out of all my brushes!! I have had mine for year now (i really need a new one! haha) and it is still in good shape and still soft! this brush is the perfect size and I will be definitely be buying it again!
