Wonderful little brush!

It's the perfect size when you're looking to pack on the colour in a tight spot. The bristles pick up so much product, and they're incredibly soft! It holds its shape well, and for $6 CAD, it's a steal!

I'd definitely buy this again.

I picked up this brush when it was on sale, and it hasn't disappointed me. The bristles are so soft, and not scratchy whatsoever. It's perfect for detail work in the crease and outer corner, and for blending out harsh edges. I really like this brush, and it's as steal for its price! My one quibble with it would be I wish it was a bit more dense, as it doesn't pick up as much color with one swipe as I'd like it to. But overall, great brush!

I bought this brush about a year ago for approx. $7 CDN, it's really soft, applies colour well, and I haven't had a problem with it shedding.

I would def. recommend it!

I love this little brush. It's perfect for applying shadow to my crease and the outer corners of my eyelids. I haven't had it for long so I can't say much as to whether or not it sheds, but I also have the A-10 brush which hasn't shed at all in the nearly 2 years I've had it, so I'm sure this one will be good too. The best part? This brush was only $5 CAD.

I have 3 of the annabelle e/s brushes: a21, a10 and a8. I find this one too small, it's good for like your tear duct and eyeliner gently, but for packing on shadow it's tooo small. Cute brush though.

I bought this brush after I realized the spongy sticks that come with your eyeshadow suck. At first I was unhappy with it, believing it deposited the colours too sheerly, but I soon realized this gave me the option of layering colour and I began to love it. It's now one of my favourite brushes and I don't think one bristle has fallen off in the three (or is it two?) years I've had it. Kind of cute, too.

I believe this is the smaller version of the A-10 shader brush. I have lost mine and am contemplating purchasing another one just because it is so cheap and handy. It is small in size, which I love because it gives me precision and control (I find most shadow brushes to be awfully big). Its bristles are soft allowing to slightly blend the shadow you're applying, yet firm enough to pack dark colors on the outer V. I've used it wet with loose powders as well. Not bad!

This brush is great for applying eyeshadow to your crease. It picks up colour well and also with some swiping works great for blending everything together. I don't even bother with sponge applicators anymore.

I hate to be the one to bring down the rating, but this brush sheds every time I use it (and not just a little!) and is scratchy on my eyelid as well. Too bad, because it fits perfectly into my crease and is great for that. Maybe it was just a bad apple, but I won't repurchase and am thinking of replacing this brush.

Love this brush. It helps me apply my eyeshadow so easily and it is the perfect size for anyone's eye. The bristles, which are very soft, hold up to wear and tear and wash extremely well. I have not noticed any shedding. My love and affection for this brush has prompted me to go out and purchase other Annabelle brushes, too. This whole product line is a gem in the makeup world as far as I'm concerned. It's too bad it is so underrated.

i looove this little brush! the bristles are very soft yet get the job done.... i find a lot of brushes too big for my eyelid so this is a breath of fresh air! i have washed it many many many times and it still looks just as good as when i took it out of the package! a nice skinny little handle and perfect bristles. definatly comparable to higher end brushes if not better! try this brush as its great in the crease or all over lid coverage!

I decided to try this little brush because I have small lids and creases and most brushes are too large for my eyes so it is hard to get proper placement. I was so surprised by the quality of the hair on this brush and how beautifully it deposits color onto the my eyes and fits perfectly into my small crease and corners of my eyes. It is sooooo cheap and works as well as high priced makeup brushes. I use this everyday now!

I LOVE this brush! FINALLY a eyeshadow brush that actually fits my lids. It's really hard to find a good eyeshadow brush, because most of the eyeshadow brushes are designed for cacasian eyes and most of them are made to fit them imho. Since i have asian lids with SMALL creases, this fits in perfectly! It picks up e/s pigment really well. It's not stratchy, it's not too firm or floppy and it's soft! This might just be my holy grail e/s brush. I'm so excited, and i love using it every morning. OH and did i mention the price??? 5$CAD!! I can't believe i found this finally, i dunno what has held me back from this. At first i wasn't sure if it would be good or not because it's sealed in its package, but once i applied my e/s i fell in love.
