I love this brush! I have had Paula Dorfs Baby Cheeks brush for years and it is still in great condition.
If you want to concentrate cheek color onto the apples of your cheeks this brush works really well. I have used it to highlight the tops of my cheeks as well if I am using a larger brush for my cheek color.
I think this is ONE of the blush brushes everyone should have. It is expensive but it will last you forever!

When I say except I CANT live without this brush, I mean that I nearly had a heart attack when I realized that I lost it. I think I might have left it at a hotel and when I got back and discovered it was missing, I began to feel panicky. So I rushed onto e-bay to order my 2nd. I kid you not, if there is one brush that you must add to your collection, it's this one. There is no better way to apply powder blush than with the baby cheeks. It's dome head just hits the apple on the cheek perfectly for that little pop of color. A few sweeps back and it looks so natural. This brush was the start of my believing that I could apply makeup like a professional. I can't rave enough about it. God forbid they discontinue this and mine goes lost again. (as I'm writing this review, I'm wondering if I should buy a back-up). My advice, just get it. You'll get hooked on it too!

This is my all time FAVORITE brush!!! What I hate about brushes the most is how many of them start out soft but get scratchier and stratchier with use and wash. This brush is dome shaped and densely packed to pick up a good amount of color. Best of all this brush is incredibly soft! I just want to keep brushing it on my face! I even brush it on my boyfriend's face just to show him how soft it is! You won't find a better brush than this. It's one of those fuss free, just brush and go items. It is also small enough for travel. I've washed my brush about 30 times and have had it for almost 3 years. It's still in the same shape I bought it in. Awesome! Defninitely worth the price! I even use it as a bronzer brush and foundation brush but with a light hand.

Like other reviewers, I simply find this brush too dense for blush application. It picks up a ton of product and applies it all in one blotch on the cheek. Subsequent efforts to blend are fruitless. Plus, it's not all that soft a brush--the bristles actually hurt my cheek a little bit when I use it. I know that beauty requires a certain amount of suffering, but a painful blush brush is just ridiculous!

I bought this brush recently, and I'm glad I got the opportunity to, since rumor has it that it's being discontinued.
The head of the brush is small and rounded, and very densely packed. It's very soft and feels great on the skin. The handle is pretty short, making it ideal for travel.
The is a great brush for many types of blushes. For my lightly and medium pigmented blushes, I brush it once or twice across the blush and it blends it perfectly into my cheeks. For my darker blushes, I can tap it very lightly into the center of the blush, and it still blends wonderfully, giving me a slightly more intense look than a skunk brush would.
A wonderful brush IMO, and it's a shame it's being discontinued.

I really thought I would love this one as it is a variation on the Stila #21 (which I DO LOVE)... but the head is considerably smaller and denser, hence it does pick up alot of pigment, but doesnt have the flexibility to allow for seemless blending. Painted 'stripes' for me... very disappointed. Would be excellent for small-faced misses, or those who take contouring seriously and want a firmer brush for that purpose.

The Paula Dorf "Baby Cheeks" brush is good for giving your cheeks that rosy-apple look. However, it is not a very versatile brush. I recommend the Stila #21 over the "baby cheeks"- it is the same concept but a little more versatile.
also, short handles bother me.

What a luscious little brush! Round, densely packed, soft and shaped rather like a face-sized rounded eye-shadow crease brush, if that makes any sense. Very easy to control the application and blending of blush.

I purchased this brush 3 years ago and have been using it ever since. I love this brush for giving me that rosy glow right where I smile. Paula's brushes are well made with blue squirrel hair. The hair rarely sheds unlike my other makeup brushes. I love the quality. It's thick and dense but so soft.

SUPER SOFT hairs on this brush. I definitely recommend using a less pigmented blush with this one, since it's easy to overdo the color with these densely packed bristles. I use mine in a circular motion on the apples of my cheeks for a very natural glow. highly recommend this one!! check out ebay for cheaper prices than full retail.

I use this brush as a mini-kabuki brush for setting powder and bronzer as well as to blend my powder blush. The size and soft, soft bristles are perfect for these different types of application. This brush is a work-horse of mine and I have taken for granted how great it is.

This is a very nice brush. After all the raves i finally got one. I like it but maybe i was just expecting too much. Dont get me wrong, its super soft and top quality. I guess i thought it would be bigger. But i like how it is denser so its easier to use with light colors. Retails for $38 and can be found at paula dorf or sephora.

I really love this blush brush!!! Extremely soft! Very dense! This one is great for those less pigmented blushes. Expensive but worth it.

What a great blush brush this is, and thanks to the savvy MUAers who recommended it! I'd been going crazy trying to get other brushes to pick up any color from my powder brushes, and this brush does it perfectly. It looks a little odd in the store (chunky), but it's wonderful to use.

Baby Cheeks is a wonderful brush-- i get pleasure everytime i pick it up and look at its chubby bristles and the spare block lettering on the handle-- i have always had a problem with getting blush on my eyelids (bad aim i guess)-- i didn't feel very confident with a fluffy blush brush-- baby cheeks, however, allows me to apply blush with my eyes closed-- i also use it to apply powder to every nook and cranny of my face-- it is very soft and makes me happy everytime i use it-- please go out and buy one!

Love this brush. The bristles are very densed packed but very soft. Apply blush perfectly and naturally, I used the "push" motion. The handle is not too long or too short, just right for my Stilla can but still compact for travel.

This was very pricey in Canadian dollars but I finally convinced myself that I *needed* it as I own way too many blushes for a sane person. It was very fluffy in the store as it was a tester but the one I brought home looked tiny. I thought she gave me the wrong one but it clearly is labled baby cheeks on the handle. The more it fluffs out, the more I like it. I have full cheeks (Alvin the Chipmunk?!) and I cannot use itty bitty blush brushes! I love using this with NARS Orgasm and BeneFit Dandelion but is a bit much with the more pigmented blushes. A very nice brush but I expected a lot more for some reason...

I can not believe it took me this long to find out about this brush!! - I love it!! - IMO, it's *perfect* for Nars Orgasm (and other lighter colors) cause it's a small and dense brush that picks up alot of pigment - so if you like Orgasm, try this brush!

Am I the only one who thinks this brush is way too small and dense to apply blush?? Perhaps I have big cheeks, but this brush definitely deposits too much pigment on the skin and its small design totally aggravates the situation. It IS incredibly soft and fluffy, but I would only use this for "buffing" face powder and such, so itīs basically useless for me.
