I absolutely love this brush. It puts my concealer and Well Rested on quite smoothly and makes those products easy to deal with. I did find it left a bit to be desired when I used the cream concealer from BM and Pur Minerals, but my powder products react well with it. Application is quick and easy - it's definitely one of my favorite brushes in my kit!

I am really happy with this brush, luckily, because I would feel so bad if I had payed the full price and it would be as bad as the Full Flawless Brush. This one is super soft and works perfect with my BareMinerals foundation powder. I would buy this again, but not any of the other BareEscentual brushes.

This is a good concealer brush for BE products (which is what I use).

It's very stiff, though, but that isn't a bad thing. It's good quality, and is better than the Sephora concealer brush I have for my purposes.

I did poke it into a tiny, invisible pimple I had under my nose, and it hurt like hell, but otherwise, I've had no trouble. The stiffness can hurt if you have a sensitive spot *and* you're being careless, like I was.

I wish all BE brushes were of this level of quality.

I picked this brush up in one of the intro kits. Though I don't use the other brushes - especially the full coverage flawless application brush - this one is still a staple. I use it for concealing on top of mineral foundation (it is so good it will make mineral foundation into a concealer) or for Well Rested under my eyes regardless of what kind of foundation I'm using. The brush is in great shape after several years and I'd repurchase if anything happened to it.

I have two of these, and use them both for eyeshadow application. They are great for that, with the narrower tip you can get into the inner corner.

BE brushes are of decent quality, but I think somewhat overpriced. The 4 or 5 I have mostly came in kits, I have only purchased one.

I love this! It gives amazing coverage compared to a different concealer brush or your finger. It covers my acne well when used with the right concealer. It's worth every penny especially when you can get this on amazon for about $10.

This is the only brush from the Bare Minerals starter kit that I like and continue to use. It's the perfect amount of softness and provides just the right amount of coverage. It's perfect for blending everything.

This is the only brush from the starter kit that I'm not looking to replace. It does its job well and doesn't shed.


The brush: ~5 inches in length, aluminum binding the fibres to a black plastic body. It's sturdy and light. The bristles are half in inch in length, laid out in a flat shape with a rounded edge. The fibres provide good resistance and holds shape very well and stay springy even after repeated washing.


The only reason why I wouldn't buy it again is that I'd like to try a softer brush, not that the bristles are hard. I just have sensitive skin.

This is the ONLY concealer brush I've ever used, but I would say that it's pretty darn good.

I use it for both cream/powder concealer, and it works beautifully without one bristle falling out during application or when I clean it. It's very soft and an overall great brush.

This brush & the skin rever upper are the ONLY things I actually like from all of the Bare Minerals/Escentuals line, or whatever you want to call it. I'll keep this short & simple. This brush never shed on me, always gave good, even coverage, it's soft (unlike the other brushes from this line that are obviously made from goat pubic hair). This is the only brush I will ever buy from this line again, & possibly the only thing I will ever buy from this line.

One of the best go to brushes I have. It hides a multitude of sins. I personally like using it to conceal with one shade lighter than my foundation shade, then following with a loose dusting of the foundation over the top.

I've had mine for about 5 years and it never shed on me. Its worth the price for sure. Its perfect to apply powder or liquids undereye and blends it in very well.

I have 2 of these brushes from starter kits and I reach for one of them on the daily basis. I do not really use a consealer that much, I mostly apply my Paint Pots with it to my eye lids since it is pefect for this task. It also works well with biscue from BE, giving you a flawless result. I wouldn't repurchase because I bet they will last me at least 10 years and if I ever loose them I will just use my fingers.

The only BE brush I've actually kept and used for years. I think this is because it's synthetic - BE just doesn't use very good quality materials for it's natural hair brushes. I like this for thick, creamy concealers. It does give good coverage, it's a good shape and size (I have a different brush for "detail" concealing) and it holds up well to frequent washing.

I received this brush years ago in a BE starter kit as a gift. it's still in flawless shape, which is more than i can say for the other two brushes that came with the kit. it's never shed or lost it's shape. it works equally well for applying mineral makeup or liquid concealer and strikes a great balance between blending well and still applying enough product to cover imperfections. It's apparently pretty pricy now on it's own,but if i could find a good deal on it i would buy again, if i ever wind up needing to replace it. this thing is ridiculously durable.

This is great concealer brush. I got it in my BE Starter Kit and I love it. It's perfect size and blends really well. It's definately a "keeper".
