Meh. I think this is an overrated tool. I've tried other cream brush applicators that work just fine - even the kind that you can buy at the drugstore seem to be comparable to this one. Maybe that's just because of the quality of the cream blushes I use? In any event, it's not a bad purchase but I definitely would not buy it again if I lost/ruined the one I have.

I wanted a blush brush and after much research chose this one. I am very happy with it. It has very soft bristles, picks up the right amount of color (even for more pigmented blushes) and allows me to apply blush relatively precisely but then blend well. A winner.

I really like most of PD's brushes so was surprised to find I didnt like this one. Its super soft, made of blue squirrel and is an angled cheek brush with long bristles. Its not densely packed and the bristles are quite long so it doesnt pick up a lot of color. I found it didnt pink up enough color. I think this would be better used with a more pigmented brush. Soft and well made but I wasnt a fan of the size. Retails for $42.

Paula Dorf brushes are simply wonderful. I love this brush, it has quality and a great feel when you use it...and the blue squirrel is terrific. WORTH IT!!

Soft, angled, well-made, durable, worth the price. The curved contour of the brush is perfect for holding.

Paula Dorf's Cheek Brush hands down is my HG blush brush. I have tried others, but got rid of all of them over time, and I have been using this exclusively for many months. I'm very fair, and this brush picks up just the right amount of powder, it's very good quality blue squirrel hair which so far never shed. Even after many washes, it always returns to its original shape, no problems whatsoever. The slanted design of the bristles makes applying blush a breeze. I'll be loyal to this one.

I cannot I believe I never wrote a review for this fabulous blush brush when I have been using it exclusively for years! I actually have 3 of them. I keep one in my purse, one at work and one at home. This is the perfect blush brush for me - the soft bristles and the angle of the brush are just perfect for applying blush - a product which is so important to me because I have very fair skin. I have bought cosmetic brushes from almost every company out there and still end up returning to Paula Dorf for what I consider the best quality. These brushes are not cheap but they last and are a very good investment.

Its perfect. I used to dismiss the idea of using brushes- other than the horrid little brushes they give you with the product- not I grab the brushes & chuck then in a ziploc- someday I'l lfigure out a use for them- cleaning out my laptop keys- perhaps...;)

Paula's brushes cant be beat- I have had this one for many years- and it shows no signs of giving out on me . Its well worth the $$ - although it is a whole lot of $$. I have been slowly building a nice brush collection from Paula Dorf- and its a beautiful thing! ;)

Excellent brush for contour blushing. I love the shape of the angled bristles for sweeping color on from the apples towards the temples. It is pricey, but I got mine off ebay for around 50% off retail.

Although a little expensive...$42, this is the best blush/bronzer brush I have ever used & well worth it! Does not lose its shape at all after being cleaned, also does not shed hairs ever, and blends beautifully. Plus the angle is a plus to help contour the cheek area.

This slanted cheek brush has been my HG for the last four years. I have had the same brush the whole time and it has NEVER shed!!! In four years!!! Very very soft, angled shape make blush application a breeze.
Every time I wash it, it feels brand new again. Definitely get this brush!

A *very* soft, angled blush brush. Made of blue squirrel hair. Excellent for contouring, or for those of us with round faces. =) A bit steep at $42, but will last quite some time -- it looks well-made. I prefer this to the MAC #168 angled contouring brush (USD28), which is smaller (good for face contouring but maybe not blush) and not quite as soft.
