Dear buki, I love your handle as I apply my makeup. But in all honesty, you suck. Big time. You are too rough, and I have better things to do than rub sandpaper on my face. And thats what you...

I received this with a kit years ago. I lost my brush, but I loved it. I had it for almost three years and it was still going strong. I never had any issues with this brush. It lasted longer...

I wish the quality of the brushes were as good as their powders! The bristles are way too harsh, especially for the price, and irritate my skin. I bought a Bobbi Brown powder brush 10 years ago...

At first I liked this brush...but after a few weeks I'm noticing that it irritates my skin (and I do NOT have sensitive skin by any means)! A few seconds after using it, my skin looks as if there...

I too got this in the starter kit. I like it at first but I guess I'm alittle rough on my brush. The bristle tips are starting to break. I will continue to use for my blush as it still works well...

This brush definetly irritates my skin. It feels stiff and coarse against my skin, and it's constantly shedding. I always find at least 1-2 hairs on my face after using. I'm ordering a synthetic...

I have been using the Kabuki brush for 4 years now ( I use to use the flawless face brush before that) and I loved it but I decided to try the brush kit because of a deal and I'm sooo glad I did. I...

I really love this long handled version of a "baby kabuki" brush. IMHO, it's much better than many of the typical (stubby) kabuki brushes out there. The longer (but not overly long) handle makes...

I love the Handy Buki brush! I had been using a kabuki I purchased from Target, but I wanted to try the Bare Escentuals brush since I use most of their other brushes. I am really like it. I love...

This came with the starter kit on the infomercial and is the best of the bunch in the kit in my opinion. It did shed a bit in the beginning but I hardly ever see any now. The price is a bit too...

I use this for my foundation (BE of course) and love it. I was using the regular face brush, but have found I get better coverage with the handy buki. I highly recommend this!

I prefer this brush for my mineral foundation application. I can really get into the small areas around my nose and mouth. I feel I have more control with this brush. I find the kabuki brushes...

I really like this brush. I use it with the bare minerals foundation and it has been working great. It gives you good control over where the minerals go and makes buffing very easy. I haven't...

This is one of the few BE brushes that I like. I use it for my EM foundation and it gives great coverage w/o looking like MMU can look. I got this in a kit so the price didn't really matter,...

A must have. I use this brush every day to apply my Bare Minerals foundation. The bristles are soft and the shape of the brush is perfect for "buffing" minerals into the skin. I haven't found it...

Wow! I am getting more impressed with this every day! It is soft and dense and has a long handle! I washed it with my purpose soap so that it would be softer and it really made a difference....
