I bought this brush after having a MA apply foundation with one (Armani, in case anyone's interested). The Armani one was £28 and this was £9 but if I could go back I'd save up and get either the...

This was the first time i've ever used a foundation brush. Its a bit tricky to get the hang of but i think the trick is not to use too much product - a little goes a long way with this brush! I...

It's not badger's hair, so if you need a high quality brush, go to Bobbi Brown, not The Body Shop !!

This is the first foundation brush I've ever used. It gives a good finish, although I've found you have to be careful with it around the eyes. Too much on the brush will leave under-eye wrinkles...

I bought this because of its synthetic fiber. It's easy to clean and dry. So hygienic.

<p>This is a good basic, synthetic foundation brush which is useful for applying liquid foundations. Being synthetic it is hygienic, and dries quickly when washed over night. After a few practice...

I dunno if it's because I was new to the whole foundation brush concept and didn't clean it very well at first (left the brush upright after washing), and now the bristles are a bit splayed. Or...

I like this brush, but the bristles are a bit too flexible. I don't have a MAC store near me, so I bought this brush instead. It wasn't too expensive (forget how much) but I like that the handle...

I love this brush, although in england it costs £10 which is quite a lot for me to spend on a simple brush, but i think its worth it. I think it depends on what foundation you use as to whether...

I agree w/ the last reviewer. The bristles are not firm enough to apply the foundation, leaving streaks all over your face. I should've spent the extra couple dollars for the MAC brush! This is...

This is my first foundation brush, and I'm still looking. I found this one to be *too* soft, leaving streaks and making it near impossible to blend out fully. I had to go over my foundation with...

I recently returned the MAC 190 foundation brush cuz I thought $36 (Can) was too much to spend on an item I don't use everyday. Then I came across The Body Shop's version which at $19.99 (Can)was...

This is great brush for the very cheap price. The synthetic bristles are densely packed and pliable, perfect for "painting" on foundation. I am a novice at using foundation brushes and have no...

I've never tried MAC or Prescriptive's foundation brush, so I can't compare. However, this one from the Body Shop is very soft. Foundation goes on evenly and I definitely use much less foundation...
