This brush is very interesting. It is a dual fiber brush which means that the black goat hairs in the base are fused with thinner sparse synthetic hairs at the top. Why this is great is because as you apply your product, the white hairs bend easily allowing you to buff the product in. Also makeup doesn't get absorbed into the thick part of the brush but stays on the white hairs and then get transfered right on the face. You don't loose as much product to the brush.

Now what can it be used for?? Almost anything! You can use it to stipple your liquid foundation on the face. You can also use it for face powder, bronzer and blush. Even highlighter can be applied with this.

I love the fact that the brush is flat and very soft. I cannot use it with some of my harder blushes but it is great for all the soft ones. The brush doesn't pick up too much product so you don't end up looking like a clown. It is so easy to apply evenly too! I used buffing motions instead of the sweeping ones and I think that works best!

Since I bought it I have only seen a couple of hairs fall out which is acceptable when it is brand new. It is best to clean it with some baby shampoo to extend its life
