I received this as a GWP years ago, probably 2001, along with two other brushes that I don't use (concealer and lip liner). I remember the SA telling me that these were the regular full-size versions and the package I was getting for free was worth a lot of money. The version I have has a squared, faux tortoise-shell handle and a rounded tip. I thought I should write about it because I've been using it almost daily all these years and it's still in great shape. I'm able to apply the right amount of blush and smooth it out just right. I don't know if I'd purchase it again because I'd like to try out others, but I do recommend this brand.

I've had the brush they made that was gold for the blush brush. It's amazing and is the perfect shape for application. It's lasted me about 5-6 years so it is definitely a bang for your buck. Would recommend this highly.

Love this brush, its not streaky and the bristles are very soft, very low shedding, but I probably won't buy again, to expensive for my taste.

I like this brush a lot. Bought Anna sui's blush brush because it is smaller. But i still prefer Estee Lauder's. I wish the handle is shorter so it would be handy.. Other than that, this brush is perfect!

My mum has been using hers for 20 years already- that's the main reason why i bought mine! =)

I don't know why this wonderful brush is getting bad reviews. Could people are actually reviewing the GWP brushes (some of them clearly state that the they received the brushes as GWP or got it for cheap on sale). I don't think Estee Lauder ever sells this brush for cheap, just like their make up and any other high end brand they never reduce the price. I got mine for $32. It has a long, heavy, dark blue handle with the word 2F engraved on it. The bristles are dense and soft, and a bit tapered. It picks up product very well, works great for bronzers too. Blending is a breeze with this brush, the result is always beautiful. Shedding is minimal. How I love this brush.

Okay, so now that I have seen the picture of this product, I know what my brush is for. I received this brush as a GWP, I didn't think this a blush brush at first cause I had never seen one of this size and shape. Not that it looks that out of the ordinary. I can't rate this perfectly because, to be honest, I have been using it to apply loose powder to my face. I have to say it does a great job of doing that! It picks up the powder well, and the bristles are quite soft. I think it'd be too small for blush, just IMO.

I have the blush brush with the blue enamel handle. I love this brush! It picks up the color very well and spreads very diffused, not streaky. My blushes are going to last forever with this brush. The handle is a little long, but I dropped mine and it broke just in the right spot. Works great!

Well, mine is one from some years ago, and it works ok. The bristles are pretty soft, and it blends nicely. Don't think I will repurchase because it is a bit pricy for what it's worth.

Ooooh sooo soft and nice. I do not know if this is GWP because I got it in a swap once. It has a light, ivory colored handle. I use this with my softest powder blushers.

Bought this many years ago, so I assume it changed by now, but mine is very crappy. Applies blush very streaky and blotchy plus the bristles are scratchy. Would not recommend and would NEVER buy again. Bought many many years ago before I even knew what MAC is so there's my explanation!

Mine wasn't the GWP but the one that retails seperately with navy blue enamel handle and real hair. I like this better than Sephora, MAC or BB's blush brush. It's softer and thicker, picks up blush wonderfully and blends like nothing I've seen before! I love the plush, luxurious feel of this brush so much that I've retired the others for the time being!

If you're looking for a high end blush brush, this would be the one to get! I also have other brushes in this set and they are reviewed seperately.

I have noticed bad reviews in the section about Estee Lauder brushes but these are very misleading because the reviewers are reviewing GWP brushes which are nothing like the regular line of high quality brushes that range from $15 to $30 each. I find these prices very reasonable considering the quality. They are all beautifully made and very attractive with navy blue enameled handles and a gold ferrule. The bristles are thick and soft. I have the whole lot of them and love them. The only one I use which is not EL is the smashbox brow brush only because EL doesn't make one! I think the current line of brushes must be only a couple of years old because I never liked EL brushes until I bought the powder brush in the summer of 2002. Before that they were ugly and the bristles were not thick enough. Now, however, they do a wonderful job and look beautiful on my dressing table as well :-)

This brush is probably not worth the money. Thankfully I got it at a sale. It does not really pick up colour so easily. But the quality is not too bad since I've had mine for 5 years and the hairs are still intact.

Soft bristles, nice sleek handle and the bristles dont really come out of the brush when i give it a good cleaning. Applies my blush on great. I dont think i would purchase this again, considering it has lasted for 5years. no really need to purchase another if it's standing up good.

Again, I got this from my mom's dead makeup stash. It's no wonder that she never even bothered with some of her stuff. She got this in a gift pack.

After the first few uses it hurt to put on blush because this was so prickly. While it gives me perfect coverage, I feel like I'm going through Chinese water torture every morning I put this on.

I received this brush as part of gift set -- the blush brush is not quite as bad as the other brushes, but I don't like it either. I also use this one for "dusting off" flakes of eyeshadow, glitter, or whatever -- not for applying blush. I tried that and could not get a good application. These are cheap quality brushes for too much money.

I bought this brush expecting great quality from EL. Well, it shed like crazy and was so stiff after using it a few times. I gave up on it and threw it out. Sonia Kashuk's brushes are MUCH softer and much cheaper (and much better!).
