I love this brush.....for bronzers, powders but even to apply my HG liquid foundation, Shiseido Sun Protection liquid. No streaking, lovely finish, washes up beautifully. I've got two now and am considering purchasing a 3rd. Thumbs up for this soft but versatile brush.

This brush is AMAZING for powders. I use this with my Nars loose powder (which often left my face oily by mid day) and the brush just meshes the powder into my skin so perfectly that there was little-to-no oil by mid day! Yes, it really presses the powder into your skin so that it stays put. The brush is small and short compared to other powder brushes (i.e. Mac's) but it's amazingly soft and with the appropriate density.This brush is meant for "mineral" foundation so I can see why it's as dense as it is, but it still works wonderfully with powders. At first I thought the price was too high, but compared to other high end brand brushes, it is relatively cheap. Besides, I received 20% of during the friends and family sale and a free eyeliner so it was well worth it! Either way, this brush is a must in your brush collection!

One of my favorite brushes! It is SO soft and wonderful. I can get a nice finish using this brush, and it isn't itchy or dry like others. Love love love!

wonderfully soft. Bought it on Paula Begouns advice and used it to get gift with purchase. This was my purchase and I am so happy with it. It is well balanced, beautiful, luxuriously soft and holds the shape well. It is dense and holds powder well without gouging holes in the powders and it seems like it makes everything appear airbrushed. Sweet brush all around.

After reading all the fantastic reviews about this brush i decided i had to get it. I have been looking for the perfect brush for my compact powder foundation (bellapierre) for so long.... You can't buy this brush in the UK but that wasn't going to stop me!!! I got mine from the US on Ebay and it arrived today... I couldn't wait to try it out. It is the BEST brush ever! Absolutely love.. so soft, picks up the right amount of product and allows foundation to glide on to give you an airbrushed glowing complexion. I will never buy another powder foundation brush again! Must thank Lancome for creating such a wonderful brush. If you are thinking of getting a powder foundation brush then you must give this a go - you will NOT be disappointed :-)

I have this brush from the Declaring Indigo collection. The only difference to the original is that it has a blue (d'oh) theme, specifically the Lancome rose logo is blue, and the bristles are dyed blue close to the root. The brush is quite beautiful; very pleasing to the eye.


The bristles are synthetic, dense yet soft, and have a slight 'rubbery' feel to them. They pick up my loose mineral foundation powder without any effort, and deposit the product evenly on the face. The size of the brush is ideal. It's small enough to fit into my sifter jar that has a 5cm diameter, yet large enough to cover my face without too much fussing about. A few swipes along my face are enough to guarantee a smooth, flawless application. Another thing I noticed is that this brush seems to be less inclined to swipe away any concealer that I use to cover my imperfections.


If you can spare the change, then this is a brush that I can wholeheartedly recommend. It saves me a minute or two everyday by making the application of my powders a child's play. Plus, it's gorgeous to look at. So, what could you possibly want more? :-)

Great great GREAT brush. Bristles are so so soft and applies powder flawlessly for an airbrushed look. I use it for powder foundation (not mineral products). Retains shape and texture after washing. Somehow I got it from Macy's for $22 ($26 promotional price plus 15% off from Bing) and I wish I had bought a backup as it is $36 now. It is worth $36 though, so I am waiting for an enticing cashback offer.

RUN don't walk, to get this fabulous brush!!!

It's soft, picks up just the right amount of product (mineral fdtns, powder fdtn, and blends to creamy perfection.

Stays soft after washings. The handle is pretty, and well balanced as well.

I think I will have to buy a backup !

I bought two of these at TJ Maxx for 10$ each- I nearly flipped when I saw these marked down from $30 to $10! I had bought the new Lancome Mineral Pressed Powder Bronzer and I bought the matching kabuki but I couldn't decide between that and this bronzing brush. So I snatched up both of them today and I don't regret it! They are shorter, short brush handles and they are WONDERFULLY soft- the bristles are compacted together- this is not a "fluffy" brush but it is marvelously soft and it applies the mineral bronzer beautifully!

This quickly moved into the #1 spot on my favorite brushes list. I've been searching for the HG of mineral foundation brushes for a decade, and THIS IS THE ONE! Ultra soft, dense, flat across the top, but rounded edges, stiff enough to buff beautifully, but soft enough to do lighter washes, packs & deposits powdered foundation well, cleans easily, dry time not bad at all, keeps it shape, hasn't shed one hair, relatively inexpensive, and it's pretty! I think I'm in love, sigh...

I have been a mineral foundation user for a few years (although not every single day), and have a small army of different brushes for application. I prefer a flat top kabuki for fast , even medium coverage. I let myself be talked into buying this brush by the Lancome SA when I bought the mineral foundation and finishing powder.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you have been using mineral MU for a while you have a brush in your stash that will do what this one does for MMU application so if you're on a budget don't bother. At first I was ticked for letting the SA talk me into this brush but I'm a brush junkie....and sometimes an easy sell LOL. All of that being said, the brush, like everyone else has said is absolutely heavenly and applies setting powder like no other brush I've ever owned and at my age, I've owned a few! It's my go to powder brush without a doubt and if I lost it tomorrow I would buy another one. It's pure luxury.

This brush is amazing!! Like another reviewer commented I initially went over to the lancome counter to check out the mineral foundation, but as usual there was no color match for me as all the shades are too pink or orange for me :( , nonetheless I am glad I went over there because I discovered this little gem. This brush is soft and luxurious, I have sensitive skin and prefer to use synthetic bristled brushes for my foundation and powder application as natural hair brushes often leave my face itchy and irritated. This is one of the best quality synthetic bristle brushes I've ever owned I was able to get it at $27.00 which is their intro price. I use this to set my foundation with my mac select sheer powder, this brush picks up just the right amount of powder and when shaken to remove the excess it release just that the excess not all of the powder which Is somethig that I hate from other brushes. Sometimes when I do this with say a Mac 150 all of the powder come off when shaken leading me to reload...Waste of product. This brush also allows you to buff on the powder leading a beautiful airbushed finish!! Love im even considering buying a back up just in case

It does feel soooo heavenly on your face! Super-soft! It doesn't make your foundation look heavy like BE's brushes -I do like BE brushes, but after a while it ends up scratchy on your face and it's not a comfortable feelings. I admit I'm a BE snob for few years, but I use Lancome skin care ever since I was 17 years old.

I use this made-by-the-heaven brush with Lancome's Ageless Minerale foundation (Ivory 30) and it gives me airbrush look in less than 30 seconds. It may be big and floppy, yes, but when you use it circular way, it feels different. Lancome's Ageless Minerale foundation leaves my face smoothly, lightly and glowy, compared to BE's chalky and heavy look.

I love it and am very pleased with it.

Oh my gosh......where to begin? Hmmm....buy the brush; you'll love it! I haven't found a mineral brush yet I truly liked until this brush. It makes mineral foundation application flawless and FAST. It also applies blush perfectly if you are in a hurry. It feels so incredible on your skin. The Lancome mineral foundation is very nice also. I like Ivory 30.
