This brush is awesome! I use it to put on my powder foundation and it picks up a lot! I already cleaned the brush once and it didn't shed much. I'm thinking of getting another one just because it's such a great brush!

I have had this brush for over a year now and I use it at least 4 time a week. I must say, the quality is excellent for the price. There has been minimal shedding and it's still super soft. You have to clean it regularly, about every 2-3 uses. But it has been my favorite brush for face powders and powder foundations. I think I'll get a couple more with my next ELF order.

HOLY GRAIL!!!!! Love love love this brush, I have six of these, so I don't have to clean them all the time and have a fresh one ready! Amazing for liquid foundation application, also powder, and great for bronzer also. Too big for contour IMHO. Brush is very densely packed and picks up lots of powder. I have had a couple of the handles come loose and I reglued them but that didn't bother me because I love the brush so much~ I have always gotten in on 50% or 55% off specials so these have cost me about $1,50 each which makes them even better in my book.....if you are ordering ELF get at least ONE of these to try, I promise you will love it~

This is a really dense brush. No shedding. No strong smell. No bleeding. I use it to apply liquid foundation. It applies easily and blends easily. It's really cheap if you use a coupon code. However, the brush handle comes loose a few times. But nothing super glue can't fix. Amazing. :)

Not sure I'd use this for powder, but I use it every single day for stippling foundation. I have yet to purchase ELF's new duo fiber brush, but this works amazing for me!

I have two of these. That's how much I like it. One I use for stippling on foundation, and the other I use for applying pressed powder. It is fairly dense too, so it would provide a nicer coverage with cream foundations in my opinion. It is great also for applying blush as well. I have washed it a couple of times already, and so far no shedding at all with both brushes. I'm pretty pleased. I would buy again as they are cheap and do the job well. Would definitely recommend this brush! :)

An excellent brush! Great value! Use it to apply poweder over my foundation and to contour my cheeks. Works fantastically! Well worth buying!

I have recently got this brush at target and I love it! The brush can do anything like... apply foundation, blush, a highlighter or even a bronzer. Heck, I was satisfied enough to go back and buy 2 more. Three dollars= best buy ever!

Great Brush. So very soft. I use it to apply bronzer or highlighter. Perfect price. I could use a second one.

I use this for my foundation and i love it!! Foundation came out so flawless looking! I plan on getting a back up!!
