Omg! I love this brush sooo much that I wish it was sold separately and not just part of the travel kit. It is my HOLY GRAIL concealer brush. The way it buffs my concealer into a flawless airbrush finish is amazing. You can also use it for eyeshadow (cream and powder) and blending colours in the crease. Since getting this brush I barely reach for my MAC 217. I highly recommend the travel kit because of this incredible little brush!!!!

I got this brush a few weeks ago in the RT Travel Set. In fact, I bought the set just to get THIS brush. Not that big a hardship as both of the other brushes in the set are first rate and the price for all 3 brushes was not outrageous but how I wish Sam Chapman would make this brush (and a few others) available individually, rather than just in sets.

Everyone else has more than adequately explained the many uses for this brush, from crease work to use as a basic "one brush" eye shadow applicator, as well as working great to apply concealer, cream eye shadows, etc. It is just an amazing brush and I would love to have 3 or 4 of these to use on a daily basis. The only problem is not being able to purchase this brush on its own; I don't need 3 or 4 of the other brushes in this set, nor do I need a whole bunch of the cases (which are actually pretty nice for travel, though a bit on the small side to hold all the brushes someone might want to take with them to travel).

I am delighted with the quality and versatility of this brush and I am so happy that RT brushes can now be purchased here in Canada. I only wish several of the brushes could be purchased individually.

Small enough for my small lids. Packs the color on very well, easy to clean and works great with cream or powder foundation.

I am obsessed with this brush!

The one product I use day 2 day besides mascara is under eye concealer. I was aware that the the Pixiwoo sisters used this brush in their videos for under eye concealer - but I already own so many brushes.

I went ahead and purchased (even though frankly I didn't need any of the other brushes in the travel essential set) and am so happy I did! I am buying more b/c I love this brush so much.

It spread concealers like a dream, and cream eye shadow. I have not used with actual regular e/s so I am not sure but I am sure it's great.

Love love this..and then I apply setting powder with the RT finishing brush under the eyes.

I wish they sold this separately! I don't know what it is about these brushes but they make applying even "not fun" makeup fun!

Absolutely love this brush and wish it was available separately. I'd buy at least five of these. Great shape, perfect for blending. Very easy to use and the best of the eyeshadow brushes from this line (which are all very good). This has replaced (yes, replaced!) my MAC 217. Again, I'd like to have a bunch of them. At $18 for the whole Travel Essentials set, I might get a couple of sets just to have more of this particular one. I've spent way more than that on single brushes that didn't give me nearly the same results. As is the case with all RT brushes, this cleans easily and dries quickly. A great quality brush.

This is such good quality brush! I love to use it for placing eyeshadow on my whole lid and I am aware that it can be used for concealer etc. I think that everyone should have this brush in their collection, because you can really make good use out of it! I bough it on iherb.com. You can find also other brushes on this site. Use code POK969 to get 5$ off if your order is under 40$, or to get 10$ off if your order is over 40$. They ship worldwide!

First, let me preface this review by saying, I LOVE these brushes!! They are cruelty-free and of fantastic quality. The bristles are phenomenally soft and really hold pigment for application. They are great. I have many different brushes from a variety of price points (MAC, EcoTools, Sonia Kashuk, etc) and these are truly my favorite. I just really don't think you can go wrong with most of them.

This brush is fantastic for applying eyeshadow. I absolutely love the way this brush applies--not too much pigment, but it doesn't cause fallout on the shadow either. It picks up the precise amount needed to apply evenly and smoothly. It's really a perfect shadow brush.

The BEST concealer brush. Ever. Ever. Ever. I've seen the Chapmans use it in their tutorials and thought..hmm....that brush works pretty well.

I absolutely love this brush for concealer. LOVE.

I am very impressed with this brush. It works great with pressed shadow and pigments, has never shed or bled and it fits even in the inner corner of my eyes. Overall a great brush densely packed and with enough "give" to be used for packing color. I will for sure buy a couple more of this, given the price it would be a crime if I did not!

I have to echo everyone else - amazing! This is so versatile and easy to use. I can't live without it! It's wonderful. It makes application a snap, and the results are beautiful each time. I would say this is better than pretty much all of the eye brushes I own, high- and low-end. It cleans beautifully and never sheds, either. Just a beautiful brush.

I ADORE this brush!! It is the most versitile brush I've ever used. It's good as a standard eyeshadow brush to pack on color to the lid. It's great at applying shadow in the crease. It's excellent at blending because it's rather fluffy... And you can even use it to blend out concealer!! As with all the other brushes from this line, the quality of this brush is outstanding. Not only is the design adorable, but it's extremely sturdy. I have had no shedding with any of these brushes. Not even from the initial cleaning. I am SUPER impressed and will be buying more once I have the money. I highly recommend this product!!

Technically this is more of a fluffy brush than dome. I love it anyway. It's a great purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

Update: I have had my brushes for a few months now and I am glad to say I love them. They have held up well to washing and abuse. I have not seen a single hair shed and they are keeping there shape perfectly.

I really like the eye brushes. I got them a few days ago and have not had any problems with them. They pick up pigment nicely and deposit it well. I purchased the starter set and the only brush that I don't love is the "liner" brush. I find it far to thick to be able to use as a liner brush, but I do like to use it more as a pencil brush. They are very soft and unusually light... I wish more of the brushes could be purchased individually. I will update when I have had them for a while to see how well they hold up!

This is my favorite type of shadow brush, so I was really excited when I saw it. I bought it from the picture online, but was not disappointed! It's really soft, the perfect sort of thickness and size, and has multiple uses as far as eye shadow is concerned. Unlike the bigger RT brushes, the weighting on this isn't distracting. It cleans very well and I haven't had any shedding. More than worth the money.

I just bought the complete eye set for $15.99 and I love these brushes. They lay on the eyeshadow and blend it out so well. The price is amazing. I will definitely buy more sets.

I love this eyeshadow brush!!! It packs on the perfect amount of shadow and somehow holds the shadow so I have less fallout than with other brushes. But the best is how soft it is. I have many brushes and I've been reaching for this everyday.
