Quite like this one for shadow on the lid. Hangs on well to powder shadow, gets it where I want to go in a nice opaque layer. Soft. Has held up for over a year with periodic deep cleanings (cone-free shampoo and conditioner) and regular wiping off with baby wipes.

If I had more expensive brushes I would feel like I had to baby them, which I don;t mind fo a powder or blush brush but is less convenient when I have 3 or 4 shadow brushes sticking out of a jar to grab in a hurry. So, I have contemplated replacing these with something (maybe) higher quality, but I decided against it.

I have three of these because I use this brush so often. . .

Great for really getting a good wash of shadow on your lid and the bristles are super soft and don't shed. Not as ideal for blending, although with repeated use the brush bristles get more flexible. Perfect shadow application every time with this one, and it really saves me some time in the morning.

Great price and nice sleek look, coupled with the effectiveness makes this a win for me. Highly recommended.

I really like this brush! It's amazing for packing color on the lid, not the best for blending though. I use it every day for about two months now and it does its work perfectly and doesn't shed at all.
This is one of the E.L.F brushes I really recommend!

This is a great shading brush for applying shadow as a contour colour. It picks up the shadow very well so I tap any excess before applying.

I've used it a couple of times so I can't tell how well it will hold up but so far, no shedding. The hair is very soft and not scratchy.

E.L.F. has great brushes at bargain prices. This is one worth getting.

This is my favorite out of my 5 ELF brushes! I like to use it to apply eyeshadow and also blend it. It definitely did a better job than ELF's Blending Brush. The Eyeshadow "C" Brush applies eyeshadow perfectly, no shedding, comfortable on the eyes. You're going to fall in love with this!

I've had this brush for about a month now. I like this a lot. It's perfect for applying shadow on the lid. I also use it for blending although I don't think its ideal. I also sometimes use it to blend my concealer. It's not shedding at all despite it being so cheap. I got it at one of their 50% off sales for only 1.50. It being synthetic, it picks up powders really well. I don't use for liquid stuff though.

Not a fan. I prefer my eye shadow brushes from MAC by far. This one seems cheaply made (duh) but also does not give me an even wash of color. A toss.

Another A+ from E.L.F! Its crazy to to think that these brushes are only $3. It's such a steal, almost seems wrong that they are so cheap :) Anything this brush in particular is amazing. So amazing that I ran about and bought a back up. For me and the shape of my eyes, it is best for all over wahses of color on the lid, or highlighting the brow bone. To do more precise placemnt of colors on the eyelid this brush is too big for me. I have used both high end and low end brushes. In all honesty, E.L.F. studio line of brushes; this one included is on par with the higher end brushes that I have used.

I mostly use this to set my under eye concealer with powder. A few times I have used it to buff/feather out harsh lines of eyeshadow. I guess I just have so many eye brushes, I dont really need this for shadow. The only complaint I have with this is when I wash it, no matter how little soap I use or how well I rinse it, soap like never wants to leave this brush.

I'm with the last reviewer who stated that she bought multiples of this brush; I just bought my second one so I can use them over and over. It's soft as a feather and the bristles are packed densely but not too tightly, allowing it to pick up just the right amount of shadow. There are some shadows that just give you fallout no matter what, but this has definitely given me more control over those glittery ones. I love this brush so much I just can't stand that people are paying so much for brushes when this one's $3.00!
