I ordered this brush on line and my initial thought was that they had sent me the wrong brush because of how small it is. I decided to give it a go anyway because I had read some good reviews on it.
I use it to apply my liquid foundation and I think the key with this brush is to use less foundation and buff it into the skin really well. From my experience, loading the brush with foundation just leaves a big streaky mess.
Obviously the surface area of this brush is really small considering you are using for all over your face. I think this brush is perfect if you have the time to make it work. I wouldn’t recommend it for the morning routine but think it’s perfect for evenings out and weekends. It gives a lovely flawless finish, better than I’ve experienced from any other brush.
Pros:
Densely packed bristles which really buff the foundation into the skin leave a flawless finish.
I’ve found I use less foundation with this brush.
The small surface area means you can get into the hard reach areas like around the nose etc.
Cons:
Small surface area means it can take longer than your average brush to apply foundation.
After my initial scepticism I really enjoy using this brush and the finish it gives. It definitely isn’t the perfect brush but it gives a better finish that any other foundation brush I’ve used in the past. If you have the time to make it work, I think it’s worth the effort.
Have you used the 130 brush? What are your thoughts on it?

I really want to try this brush, I have a similar one with longer bristles, but I don't like it for foundation as its too soft. Great review!
ReplyDeleteI agree - this brush does seem a little small for foundation, but I guess that makes it useful for putting foundation in weird little places like at the corners of your nose..But I do personally prefer a bigger brush!
