Ok, so I said I wouldn't repurchase this product simply because it's a brush and I like to take care of my brushes so that I don't have a need to repurchase.

I bought this brush about 5 years ago at the MAC store in Canal Walk.
I've loved and hated this product in the past, but the more I watched great make-up tutorials the more I started using this brush, and I do love it again.

I like to apply my foundation with this brush, but end it off with a Real Techniques buffing brush just to get that even finish. The brush is soft on your face, but can leave some streaks if you're not careful, I've also had some of the bristles fall out.

Most satisfying thing about this brush is when you wash it, the tip becomes that beautiful white again.
I was my brushes in simple baby shampoo and leave them on a folded towel to dry, quick and easy, so no special treatment for this guy.
