I really like the wide end of this brush. It is dense, soft and I loved the size. The contour end is rough and scratchy on my sensitive eyes, so I never use that. The main problem is the shedding. Like all my EoB brushes, this one leaves hairs all over my face, and I take such good care of my brushes. In fact, all of my brushes are cheap, but the eob are the only ones that do this.

I absolutely LOVE this brush!!! The large brush applies eyeshadow quickly, and smoothly. I get perfect application every time. The crease brush is wonderful. I get a perfect crease as well. I love this brush and have purchased two. Its everything I need for my eyeshadow application. I can't say its a dupe for MAC, but it does what I need it to do. No way will I buy a MAC large eyeshadow brush when I have a good brush here!!!

It's two brushes in one! I love this

This is a dual ended brush which has a very wide domed eyeshadow brush on one end, and a pointy densely packed cone shaped brush (for lack of a better description) on the other. The wide side looks like natural bristles, the smoky side appears synthetic. This brush is an excellent "go-to" eyeshadow brush that accomplishes tons of things. The wide side can be used to do a wash of color or place highlighter color on the brow. The smoky side is excellent for use as a smoker (using the brush along the lash line to smudge eyeliner or apply concentrated shadow there. It also works brilliantly as a crease brush. This brush retails for $5.99 and often goes on sale for BOGO1/5 price. The bristles are soft, but firm, and I have not experienced any shedding from mine, and I wash regularly with baby shampoo or mild soap. I highly recommend these. I own 3 of these, they are so brilliant!!!
